NBA fantasy league needs owners

This will be an auction league via ESPN, where you have a salary cap and keepers. The league has been around for almost a decade as a serpentine redraft league; I'm trying to do something different and more fun.


 

It's a $40 league with 12 slots where we've got a few openings right now. Top three teams make money. If you are interested, email me at dmtshooter@gmail.com, but do hurry; first come, first serve.

 

Thanks...

Local (NJ) Fantasy NBA League Starting

Hey folks... please excuse the spam from a longtime Sixers fan, but I'm starting an auction / keeper NBA fantasy league, and we've got a few open spots. It's a longtime league (7 years) that's going from a head to head draft to a roto auction.

The live draft happens on Saturday, October 25th in Hamilton, NJ (between Princeton and Trenton), and you can get the details from me at dmtshooter@gmail.com.

Best,

DMtShooter

The Unwanted Return of AN Confessional?

Probably not. After all, I moved and abdicated.

But if you remember the man who brought you

FIRE MACHA NOW! (Hey, it worked!)

Polls That Made No Sense
Simmering Unresolved Issues with Nico
and Other Diaries No One Remembers...

It's the All New, All Snark, All Sports Blog that someone, somewhere is talking about -- http://fivetooltool.blogspot.com/

Five Tool Tool has, to date, no hot Priest On Sin action, and coverage of the A's has been thinner than recent attendance at the T-Long Fan Club Meet Ups.

But it does have NFL coverage, NBA rantings, a revolutionary new way to use cheerleaders, infantile nicknames and apt comparisons of Barry Bonds to a meth lab.

So come on down! And if you're still dealing with unresolved sin, post it below. I'll unpack my Big Funny Hat and get to penance-pushing.

The Last

Every game you go to could be your last, but you never think things like that, because while life is short we've got tickets for so many more games, so many more months, so play ball and put such thoughts aside, for a while.

Tonight, I went to the Coliseum for what should be the last time in my life.

What follows is a memory of tonight and the last 6 years, for the team that made me care about baseball again. It's my way of saying thanks to them. Hope you like it.

The Hopelessly Overdue Return of AN Confessional

Dear Friends,

For 18 wins and 19 losses, the A's have wandered in the wilderness of mediocrity.

For six long weeks, Athletics Nation has cried out for relief from a crises of faith.

This was supposed to be easier.
