I'm still a bit annoyed about what happened last year. Me and Darth didn't get to have a proper match-up in the final due to Yahoo's flawed playoff system. ie. having the final during the last week of the regular season when all the stars take games off.

Put an asterisk on that championship Darth. Yeah you heard me!

I'm thinking about stepping up to the advanced Motown. I think Darth should step up too as any 'champion' should.

I'm not going to allow you to bait me with your "champion" digs and the like. It sounds like sour grapes. The rules were the same for both of us even if we don't like the yahoo playoff system. We knew what they were going in.

I made a commitment to assist slippy and that is more important to me than defending myself from these taunts and character assaults.

I won a championship my rookie year in football and fell to 9th place out of 10 teams in the same league the next year. So what? Much is based on draft position and luck (health, etc.) as well as skill.

Sorry , but if you want a rematch with me it will need to be in the Novice league (unless both commissioners and Roscoe request that I switch. I said long ago I would do whatever is best for the leagues/forum.).

For the good of the nation eh Tater? Whatever works for you. I'm sending my squad into advanced. Just trying to add some extra incentive for a possible step up, thats all.

No hard feelings Tater, good luck in your quest for back-to-back*.

It is the NBA.com sponsored league and it is highly configurable.

I will be doing a run down in a seperate thread soon, but a couple things worth mentioning are:

- open to both advanced and novice players
- the league will have divisions (ex. Eastern/Western Conference)
- configurable injury list
- configurable don't cut list
- configurable player eligibility
- and much...much...more

This will be are first time utilizing this fantasy bball system so I want us to explore it for a season to see if it is better than what Yahoo has to offer. If we get a good response from the managers it could well be are new format going forward.

More info to follow.

Re: Adv. League 06-07 Banter

Pastor Flournoy wanted to play, and I really have my hands full right now, so I dropped out of Advanced to concentrate on Trial League.

Best of luck to all of you. Your chances of winning advanced increased dramatically with my withdrawal.

Re: Adv. League 06-07 Banter

All quiet on the Advanced front, I guess everyone is waiting to see how their guys are going to play before making any drastic moves.

Well, I will entertain offers for J.R Smith. Any takers?

In return I would like a Josh Smith type player... (But no Joe Smith's)
