don't fuck up my man-crush, walt!

Ha, you got it brother. Homersota?

My favorite sports radio guy is holding a Preposterous Statements tournament. The statements are mostly from local sports reporters, radio personalities, and players about Minnesota teams or players from 2009. There's some national guys that have some preposterous statements. I've been having problems being able to bring up the page, but when I do I'll post it. Not sure where to actually post it. Baseball thread, hockey thread, or other sports thread? Some are almost too good to be true.

Here's a couple...
Mark "Mad-dog" Madsen on new T-Wolves coach Kevin McHale: "McHale's coaching style reminds me a little bit of my first coach and NBA mentor, Phil Jackson"

Sid Hartman: "The Gophers men's basketball team is having trouble signing top recruits because we already have too many good players."

I changed max pick ups to 3 per week.

Thanks for setting up the league, Walt.  My buddy wants to know if we can push the draft time back an hour though.  Either way works for me.

Hey guys. Is there room for myself again this year?

[.Walt]

Of course there's room.

AMD, I'll change the draft time. No problem there.

[aMillionDreams]

Thanks, Walt.  And I forgot to mention: you prolly oughta put a note up there about the 20 bucks gentlemen's wager, if we still want to do that so everyone's clear.

[wharf rat]

Looking forward to it again this year, guys.  Temps are rising in my part of the world, baseball time is here again!
Walt, thanks for getting everything set up.

BUMP!

Looks like we're looking for 1 or 3 more.  Who's down?

Headdy better step up to the plate ASAP.  No more of this I don't do baseball crap.   >:(

[.Walt]

I talked to Headdy about it. He'd be in, but wouldn't pay. So if he finished 1st he wouldn't collect, and the team that got second would get the 1st place money. I thought the big chicken was going to be in?

Is there anybody out there? (Jaimoe, Taterbug, Jellyfish)

[aMillionDreams]

BUMP #2!

We're three days away from the draft and we need at least one more team.  Come on, somebody out there fill our league!

[.Walt]

Hey D, is there anyway on moving the draft time to a half hour earlier. I forgot I'm in a basketball league on Sundays. I know Rich wanted it later. But if we can't get anyone, maybe bump it a week later?

[aMillionDreams]

Moving it up a half hour should be fine, just let me know so I can let him know.  I can't believe we can't get one more person!

[wharf rat]

Just something to think about, for all the March Madness heads.  Can we move it back to something like 7 or 8 that evening?  Tourney games should be over by then.  I'm in it either way, just kind of thinking out loud here.  And if we can't find one more team, is it even worth it?

[aMillionDreams]

We'll find someone.  Headdy will do it if we can't find someone else.  

[.Walt]

We could make it a free league.

I actually prefer about 7 as well, but should be able to make either way.  

[aMillionDreams]

The problem is we can't draft with seven, we have to have an even number, but I think 8's a good number.  We had a great competitive league last year with 8.  Let's just let Headdy in for free and he won't be able to collect if he wins.

[Ruckus]

First off, we can always play Roto, how I usually play.  2nd, I'll front Headdy if that's what it takes.  Let's play boyz
