http://www.whatifsports.com/locker/defa ... escription
from the site-
WhatIfSports.com was created to provide a way for sports fans to settle the age-old question, "What if...?". What if the '90-91 UNLV Runnin' Rebels played the '00-01 Duke BlueDevils -or- what if the '95 Chicago Bulls team played the 2002 Lakers? How would the 1975 Reds fare against the 1927 New York Yankees? What if the '85 Bears played the '98 Packers or the '02 Red Wings played the '76 Canadiens?

thats it, just thought people had to know this

[hmm]

Sounds pretty cool...but the suggested starting lineups were completely wrong, as were the simulated minutes played. I'm not sure that it would really settle a debate.
