    My fellow Felonious friend Winless, I daresay that you will be Pau-er-less to deter the Darkside Donuts from dipping into the win Category. Yes We are empty in the middle. But we like to play uptempo...quick refreshes and up to the milisecond updates. RSS feeds...we use them as archives.

    I just wanted to yap about my thoughts on it. So its all good.

    Motown could have gotten the steal of the century with Smith. On an already dangerous team, he is going to be tough to keep down.

    I had to pass on Salmons who i think will put up decent #'s for a FA pickup. If Dalembery doesn't play I am screwed. Bynum is like a sheet of downey in new orleans after katrina.

    Over in the novice league we get our info from the Pony Express. I hear that Larry Bird's back is acting up again. Might be time to make a move...

    Glad someone is noticing. :)

    And Webz..I did like Haywood...but I like JR Smith SO Much better! lol! Brendon is very serviceable, but it looks like he is having some problems winning his spot against Ethan Thomas. We don't have any room on our squad for players who are wrestling with relevance.

    Be very afraid. I'm on a mission this year fellas!

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    Motown, I have some complimentary items for you: :kleenex: for when you face my team and all your aspirations in this league go the way of the jedi...like in episode 3...not in 6. ok? not like in 6 where they kick the empire's ass with teddy bears but like in 3, you know with like lave and stuff.

    Remember when that awesome pickup goes suddenly cold against the Darkside Donuts that JR Smith is an anagram for MJR Sith. Darth Lazy is his secret name

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    Donuts will be fitting because I don't expect for you to win any categories against me. lol. Besides, noone from that bootleg division of yours has a shot at beating me anyway. I feel like Dream Team 1 going on an exhibition tour against 3rd world countries.

    I picked up JR Smith with my 14th rounder over on advanced. he is gonna be starting (dunno about finishing) but if he keeps hitting the trey ball he's staying. Coach Karl has been riding him pretty hard though. Tough love might make him a steal.

    I'm hoping Earl the pearless will be making a speedy recovery after biting Kevin Martin's elbow.

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    Believe me I know Webz. Trust me when I say that I went over to the Advanced League at the speed of light to pick up JR Smith. When I saw that you drafted him, I let out a Damn...Damn...Damnn that the cast of Good Times would have appreciated. :)

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    Now THOSE are fighting words!!!!:swords:

    You might think I'll be holding all the donuts in our matchup but those will be Dark-o-licious Chocolate (the dark kind not the white with sprinkles on them) Donuts and you're gonna WANT SOME. :hungry: And I'm sure some of your players will provide them for you.

    Meanwhile my team will be dropping dimes like a broken bubblegum machine. And with Rondo, Paul and Caron Butler...we'll be poised to STEAL a victory here.

    Great SG pickups by the way.

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    Speaking of MJR Sith, If any of the novice leaguers were looking to grab a guy off the FA list that the advanced guys are scooping up, all they gots to do is look above to motown and webz posts for some sound advice.

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    Slippy, you picked up bynum but still have Kwame. why? he's got NOTHING!
    Elson? what is that all about, and rondo will be lucky to get minutes.

    I've got another %%%%% about NBA.com fantasy motown. when you look at someone elses lineup it only shows the player's position that he currently sits in, not his actual position. Its not very helpful to try and scout your opposition to find out that he plays Bench. what is that all about?

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    Kwame came around at the end of last season and I'm hoping for at least that. I will cut bait if someone else is better. Its still the pre-season. C's at the bottom of the barrel suck

    Re: Trial League Trash Talk and other Exchanges

    I ran into that too Webz. There IS a way to see the other teams position though. When you go into the screen where you are able to change your lineup there is a drop down list that allows you to change to other teams. When you do that, you will see a more detailed breakdown of the opposing squad. (this includes stats, position, avg., etc...)

    I'm not seeing that. I go to my team, then click the drop down to view another team and it just shows that teams players with their weekly game schedule.
