    I'm currently the last seed in the playoffs, slightly below .500. Ladies and Gentlemen I have successfully re-created the New Jersey Nets!</p>

    Well, there's only one thing to do now; fire the coach! </p>

    </div></p>

    </p>

    I believe only six teams make the playoffs.</p>

    True, but there's the b-side playoffs, aka the 'compensation playoffs' or something like that. It fits my analogy if I look at it as the Western, and Eastern, conferences.</p>

    Juan Carlos Navarro has been dropped by 4038 teams in Yahoo! leagues</p>

    </div></p>

    Martell had hit the 6,000 mark, that's my threshold.</p>

    I'm really bored so I decided to look around at the fantasy rosters to see how well people drafted. I used the CBS Sportsline stats, Yahoo is fine but I don't think they update them as well as CBS. I checked for the top 20 fantasy players and see who drafted them. Wade, Arenas and Artest are in the top 20 but I left them out because they were or are out for long periods.</p>

    Fruitcake drafted 1: Nash
    ZAE drafted 2: Redd, LeBron
    Netsanity drafted 1: Deron Wiliams
    NJ Savrior drafted 2: AI and KG
    Ghoti drafted 1: Boozer
    GMJigga drafted 1: Kaman
    Pegs drafted 1: Dwight Howard
    Legacy drafted 1: Kidd
    Masterhshake drafted 1: Tony Parker
    Redskullls drafted 1: Chris Paul
    Arhie drafted 1: Melo
    Wonderbread drafted 2: Baron Davis and Kobe
    Kid Chocolate drafted 2: McGrady and Dirk
    JCB has 1: Paul Pierce
    I drafted 2: Butler and Yao.</p>

    I was suprised Shawn Marion wasn't in the top 20 until I saw his stats for the year, his stats are down from previous years.</p>

    I guess it's possible, but Marion is still pretty good.</p>

    League champs don't hinge on these guys. It's the guys having career years or emerging from nowhere that win you leagues.</p>

    Last year's fantasy MVP was Kevin Martin. He was owned by the highest percentage of league champions.</p>

    Any idiot can draft Shawn Marion. [​IMG]</p>

    I think my BBF mod league team might be my best drafting job ever. Look how many of these guys went too low or are having unexpectedly great years.</p>

    I've only made two moves. I dropped Bell and Law and picked up Sean Wiliams and Antonio Daniels.</p>

    You killed them, although some of the guys you drafted are injury prone.</p>

    I drafted 2: Butler and Yao.</p>

    </p>

    </div></p>

    So the top three teams don't have any of the top 20 players...</p>

    I assume the mod league doesn't have assholes like redskull15, who abandon the league before it even starts? Can I get in on that next year?</p>

    word up, why sign up if you aren't gonna follow? it's not like we needed extra owners, as there's 18, and there are more than one team that is inactive in our league</p>

    It's not unavoidable- next year, let's have a league with the 15 of us who are active.</p>

    They are all BBF mods.</p>

    You dominated that league when there were 20 of them (but you lost in the playoffs).</p>
