A WORD OF WARNING ABOUT OUR NEW COMMISSIONER!!!

He will undoubtedly change the rules as the year goes on. He'll probably just call it "Tweaking".

For example: During the hockey finals last year, we were battling it out in the two week playoff system. I had my guys all primed for the battle, only to discover that Tater was using some arcane rule which allowed him to completely change his team every day. Thus, On Monday he would dump all his players and find guys that would be playing only on Monday. Then, while that game was going on, he was busy dumping all those players, and lining up an entirely different group for Tuesday, etc. etc.

I thought I was playing his team, but I ended up playing the entire NHL for two weeks. He must have used 100 guys. You can't trust him at all.

Re: ****FANTASY HOCKEY***Sign up here!!!

The fantasy hockey league is now full. Thanks to all who joined and a big welcome to new managers Bill Laimbeer and Mikhail who will certainly be tougher opponents than Slippy and Linwood were.Looks like Woody will be the only easy game on the schedule.


The live draft is next Saturday at Noon eastern time. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll be more than happy to try and mislead...err...help you.

As Bill Laimbeer stated during the football draft..."This draft is going really smooth...it must be because Roscoe isn't here."
So hopefully we can get through the hockey one even with Roscoe.

Now... if I can just figure out how Jammer cheated in football to give himself the first draft choice...

Now you chumps can't beat me at my own game, because I'm not the commish.

Watch out for the Superstarovs this year!

Now all I have to do is hope that you guys don't draft all of my favorite players again.

You can set it for the whole year if you like, but yes you have the option of changing it daily.

Or if you're Tater, you change it every 30 minutes. That works out to once every FA pickup if you're counting.
