    They name 24 top acquisitions of the offseason in the NBA and we're not mentioned. In fact, in our preview, it says we made less off-season noise than any other team. No mention of Thomas Robinson. Projected record 38-44.

    In their mock draft of 12 writers, Aldridge(13), Lillard (16), and (18) were all picked in the second round. RoLo, CJ, and Oden were all picked in the 13th round in that order.

    Meyers Leonard was mentioned as one of ten players who are diamonds in the rough.

    I hate saying "Roto." I'd rather say "Rolo."

    Let's have a poll-o. How many prefer Rolo, how many prefer Roto. No troll-os.

    I never go to Rotoworld anymore because I never enjoy their articles. It almost seems as if there writers just watch sportscenter and whatever big game is on TV and then compose their articles based on those and if your team doesn't play a lot of big games then you'll get a reiteration of sportscenter 10s highlight followed by random conclusions drawn from a boxscore.
    Of course I haven't been there in over two years so they may have brought in people who actually know what the hell they are talking about and actually watch the games and follow every team.

    Rotoworld sucks. The rotoworld forums have a lot of great fantasy sport info though.

    There is a lot of crap in the forum, but they seem to break news and know what's up more than rotoworld writers

    Even if its just speculation its nice to have at least someone else's thoughts on a fantasy player or a teams fantasy relevance, regardless of how wrong I may think they are. Plus like anyone else born after 1980, the internet has made me a master at skimming through mounds of useless dribble at break neck speeds.

    Damon Stoudamire was the grand master of the useless dribble.
