Im not sure if this is in the right section, but i couldnt think of anywhere more fitting. What im wondering is if the NLSC will have a NBA fantasy league this season? If not, would you guys be interested in starting one?

i would like to start a league for just NLSC guys, but i think it would probably be better to have around 10-15 players. It stops people from not being active because they are angry they got the last pick, and have a bad team because of it

We always start one, I believe Matthew's starting one for next season and it may involve money, but we'll see as the comp gets closer.

It'll only be like $5 each, get a pot of $100 or so for the winner.

I'd say we'll set up a PayPal account... Matthew would know more since this is his idea/project, but that'd be the easiest way.

I'll DEFINITLEY play if money is involved.

I know I played last year but half way through the draft I had to leave and the computer did a horrible job drafting my team for me.

Lets really raise the stakes though. 15$ a person.

That way most of the idiots probably wouldn't join either. I'm guessing the NLSC idiots don't have any money.

I'd rather pay $5 and take money off the idiots lol. Though I'd still go for $15, hell, I'd go for $50 if enough people joined. I've won the last two NLSC leagues though people have always found something to bitch about (you traded for Yao :(, the league was locked out and none of us could change the rosters :( :lol:), I could win cleanly AND take your money.

If there's money involved I can assure you I'd give you competition.

The higher the stakes, the more seriously I'd take it. I'd go for 50 bucks too, but I'm guessing it would be you, me and maybe Matthew in the league.

Yeah, we'd have starting line-ups that look like All-Star teams. Matthew seems serious about this though so it should be cool, fantasy basketball's my favourite time of the year at the NLSC.

yeah I wouldn't mind joining. I made a pretty successful league last year, as far as competition goes, with 14 people. Haven't really tried it with more though. I think 20 teams is max on yahoo and I think that would be interesting, to say the least.

I think I'm interested in you having DJ Mbenga on your fantasy team too if it's a money league.

I'll draft Mbenga in the final round if you take John Edwards.
