There will be a Belly Division for hoops. We have a ways to go but I wanted to put this up before I forget the password:)
Any interest leave your email addy. Give me some time as I check the board every few days.

If ever there were a time for them to allow league switching, I think it should be before the season starts. I'm with jedman and think it's just TSN glitches.

Actually, the Belly was started by a guy named Louky. He invited myself and VID and a guy named Dai to join it. Dai didn't return and Louky only stayed one or two more years so VID and myself took it over. I am unable to get access in a timely manner to play TSN anymore so VID now runs it. But I suggested we continue the Belly tradition in a Yahoo! Roto format last year and it was a blast.
The origins were because Louky at the time was working for this company where he got some coworkers together and they all had a noticeable Belly, hence the name.

I was actually a late-comer to the Belly :) I haven't done TSN Belly for about a year, but would be interested in Yahoo. I may not play TSN at all this year. It's been less fun and more work the last couple years.

The Smallworld/TSN Belly was started in 98. We started the Yahoo Belly last year.

I will do TSN Belly first off... BUT for all you Yahoo guys - will start a Yahoo Belly like last year. For those doing both or whatever - for Yahoo - Roto or H2H? I like both so its up to you...

GO, "try" and set it up? It takes 5 minutes bro. Get off your lazy arse. ;)
How about a little bit later, like 9:30? Helps the people outside the east (and helps me get kids to bed etc). Just a thought.

Everyone should have received the TSN password. Just found out from a friend that some emails were not received so if you did not get the password let me know.

Anyone been able to join the Belly yet???

Dave aka SANFORDORS pointed me to this thread. I apologize for the trouble. I thought the trouble was with Ultimate Salary Cap Hoops. I misinformed him believing the change league system had been repaired. I am in the process of reviewing the change league system for Fantasy Hoops. I expect we'll have it repaired shortly. Sorry for the confusion gang.
Sincerely, Larry TSN Member Service

Could someone send the password my way? It's been a full year since I was last bludgeoned in hoops, and my fragile psyche is ready for it again...bring on a basement finish!

Am I missing something, Great One? I was under the impression this was for TSN, not Yahoo. I'm not (nor is russelldl) doing Yahoo...I hope I didn't create any confusion.

Is the fact that we are not qualifying for the league prize the reason why interest is so low? Would a virtual division be better?

There are 10 in currently so if no one bolts we have enough for a divisional prize
Smallwhirled, was that what you were referring to?

I think maybe he meant that the odds of winning the Belly division are perhaps a bit worse than those of winning a random division and was suggesting that we form a "virtual" division through the magic of RSF and his spreadsheets. :)

lol, so it is only 10 to qualify. That's good then. I love the competition of the Belly, even when I go with one team, I want it in this division. I just wanted to make sure that one of you guys had a shot at the 50 bucks.

I just finally entered the Belly. I'm putting my only "late" team here. Thsi is liley the only team that will be diffeent from my 5 other generic teams in auto divisions.
The funny part was how VID sent me the password:
Password is ****** "skanker" Enjoy!
[obviously I **'d out the real one]
Anyway, I spent about 10 minutes with different CAPS/lower case versions of the password "skanker" and was wondering why he would name the password part of my handle??? *sigh* I ain't too bright-- you should have no trouble beating me this year!

Time to get a little discussion going. How does everybody feel about their teams? I moved Howard to Rasual Butler after Howard's first two games. I think Gerald Wallace needs a big game tonight to hold his price through their lousy schedule. With the emergence of Croshere, Wilcox, and Loren Woods at a cheap price, I fear there are alternatives to Wallace that could put some price pressure on him.
