    i agree. But I like this type of thread specifically cause it lets us see the biases that people have, good or bad. It would be interesting when this is over (if it ever ends) to start another thread where people just make individual lists that can then be compared to eachothers and the one from this thread. I know at least a couple people would vote away Oden within the first 5 people, while others would have him be the last man left standing.

    Another game could be this:

    You have $200 to distribute among the team; starters require at least $20, leaving no more than $100 to distribute to the bench. A player who gets $0 is considered to be off them team in your eyes. No player can have the same amount as any other player (even among starters!). Distribute the $200 as you see fit based on their value to your team.

    We need to do this with posters on here! Make a list of the top or bottom posters on here and we'll see who's left standing!

    As the guy who whacked both Bayless and Babbitt, let me say their final vote had nothing to do with basketball. I'll whack Roy if you give me the chance.

    Shrink, I wanna kill. Blood, and gore, and veins in my teeth. I mean kill. Kill, kill, kill!

    I like it. Start some game thread during the boring times and I will play. For that matter, we are so devoid of good topics right now, i think I would post in a thread about alternative names for poop.

    I noticed that. You lurked til a kill shot presented itself. If you had grown up in the past decade or two, you'd be a gamer who prized head shots in first-person shooters.

    Heh heh. I just realized I misread your message. Since I know nothing about gaming (for the reason you specified), I read this as

    Because Johnson should be the backup PG instead of Bayless.

    Actually I just had to go to the can. Well, I considered it and asked the audience for help and I'm going with their recommendation.
