Build Your Own Sports City Draft

DraftGuru45 — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 16:24:21 GMT

There will be 3 or 4 different drafts. (NFL, NBA, MLB for sure) (NHL if you want) The goal will obviously be to build the best sports city. You will be the owner and you will use the name of a real owner in the sport of your choice, but you will own all of the teams. We will have a draft for all staff (GM, Coach/Manager, and Assistant Coaches in each sport) If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free!

NFL Name Game

CardinalRed — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 21:16:56 GMT

This is a game that will try and hold us and maybe give us something interesting to do while waiting for the season to get underway, even though that's still not for a while...

Ok, here's how you play...

I'll start off by asking a question, for example; Who will throw for the most TD passes next season, and you have to predict the player, and than someone can come up for their own question...simple enough? Ok.

Who will lead the league in tackles next season?

Contenders or Pretenders?

deadlydolphinz — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 18:33:51 GMT

Lets play a little game of Contenders or Pretenders

This is how it Works:

I'll start off by naming a team and the first person to reply has to say whether that team is a contender or a pretender and why. After your done answering the question for my team you have to than say another team for the next person.

Enjoy!!

New Orleans Saints

Buy or Sell

SoxNats08 — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 04:27:33 GMT

I got this idea from FF... other forums feel free to use it. Basically, someone posts a statement and then if you think it will happen, you buy, if not you sell.

For example:

Tom Brady will throw 40+ TDs this year.

Next person says buy (of course), then they ask a question.

I'll start:

Laurence Maroney will rush for +1,000 yds.

Just wondering if anyone would be interested in joining an NBA Redraft. For those that dont know what a redraft is, people get their own teams and all rosters are left blank. Each team will draft one player at a time, in order to get the best team. Order would be randomly decided and will be snake style. You can also make trades to improve draft posistion or trade player for player. Its a whole lot of fun and like a mock offseason, we will vote on the best teams or we could do it on NBA Live. ...

Free agent forward Josh Smith is very interested in signing with Clippers. After losing out on the Elton Brand sweepstakes, The Clippers have reportedly been in serious talks with Smith. Smith would be a younger, more talented replacement for Maggette.

The big hole for the Clippers is at PF.

Who will start? Nick Fazekas? Paul Davis? DeAndre Jordan?

none of them are ready to start in the NBA.

What do we do?

Only time will tell!

Brand to 76ers, Maggette to Warriors

Elton Brand has reportedly agreed to a 5 year, $85 million deal with Philadelphia.

Corey Maggette has reportedly agreed to a long-term deal with Golden State. The deal is said to be worth around $6 million a year.

It is a sad day to see Brand leave, but I'm not too sad to see Maggette go.

Thanks Elton!

Vikings get more out of Adrian Peterson other than a RB

ts_vike — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 00:15:25 GMT

Hindsight, as four out of five clich�-addled optometrists will tell you, is always 20/20.

When the Vikings got Adrian Peterson with the seventh pick in last year�s draft, those of us at Viking Update were thrilled. The team we were covering was getting a talent that could single-handedly change games. From the Vikings� perspective, that hadn�t happened since 1998, when the stars aligned to allow Randy Moss to drop 20 picks farther than he should have and land squarely in the lap of Minnesota ...

Boyle is coming off of a disastrous season. He was limited to only 37 games last season due to a series of injuries. When he did play, he was as much of an offensive force as ever with four goals and 25 points. However, despite missing most of the season, Boyle's appalling minus-29 plus/minus ...
