Why do I do this to myself? LOL -
Rest assured this is good news for you...and anyone
you know...
So I'm searching the net for a
fantasy basketball league online I can join to make
the season a little more interesting. I ran a fantasy
basketball league a few years back and it's amazing
how interesting it makes the season.
YOU DON'T EVEN
HAVE TO BE A FAN - and you still
get into it. So I'm looking and looking and I have to
tell you - these online leagues make it so FREAKING
confusing. It's gotta be a joke how complex they make
this. Points based on about 9 different
WEIGHTED categories and all these freakin' RULES
for trading...as if anyone has the time to be a REAL
GM of a team, you know?
One league actually had a player's
shooting percentage count for your team.
HOW RETARDED... That completely takes away from
the fun of watching a game! You want to be able to
yell at the tv for your player to shoot every chance
he's got! Not worry about it being a high percentage
shot!
So what do I do? I buy the domain
name: www.nbafantasy.net and will make MY OWN
fantasy league that has only one goal: to make the
games more fun to watch. Goddamnit, Adam. Just what I
need - more to worry about. But honestly, this will be
so simple that even the tiniest B-BALL fan will enjoy
being a part of this. You don't have to know ANYTHING
about ANY of the current players, and you have
just as good of a shot as ANYONE to win the league.
Because of the internet, all the players are ranked by
position and your team will be created by the roll of
a dice. Everyone gets a fair shake, and it simply
makes a boring, meaningless game in the middle of the
season - fun to watch. You'll all the sudden be a
Millwaukee Bucks fan just because a player is on your
team and you need some assists. It's really that
simple.
As far as money to get in...shit,
I'm thinking like $30 a person which works out to $5 a
MONTH for the NBA Regular Season. It doesn't even
begin to cover the costs I'll have running it...but I
don't care. It's fun. It'll take my mind off things.
Payout will be $100, $50 and $30 for the top 3 players
assuming I get 10 people to play. Again, very little
stuff. Maybe later in the season we can have a pot or
something. Who knows...not about money...just want to
enjoy the season.
So let me again reiterate - if
you're even vaguely interested...jump in... Whereas in
other leagues you have to know what you're doing, here
it's all done for you and the rules are incredibly
simple. You'll be amazed at how much fun it is to
watch games throughout the year when the players are
on YOUR team. And for $5 a month...I mean
COME ON.
The league will start on October
31st. So email me immediately if you're interested
with a name for your team (John's Jackoffs, Bob's
Bigboys etc...). I'm taking the first 10 people
interested. Anymore then that in the league and you
get really shitty players. If you don't have the $30
right away - it's no biggie. The only person you'll be
screwing is me, and I'll be nice enough to let you
play anyway. (Now that's some guilt for you!) You will
have to come up with the money before December 1st, or
you're out. Now even in my weakened condition
financially - I can scrounge up $5 a
month!
I'll have a complete set of (very
simple) rules on the site www.nbafantasy.net in a
couple of days. If you're even remotely interested in
this, please join in. 10 people will fill up pretty
rather quickly. I'll even make you your very own
TEAM LOGO just for joining! Now that's
incentive!!!
Oh and of course I had
to make a video...don't you want to be a
part of a fantasy league that has their
own promotional
video?
LOL.
