TSN Team Id: 696 (i think)

my resume: the only time i haven't finished in the top ten percent worldwide was in Stock car racing. i was in the top 10.2%, which impressed me, since i know nothing about auto racing.

i also have a good sense of humour, i wore a dress at woodstock '94, i've been known to get a haircut every few years and maybe even shave, and sometimes, when i'm lucky, my girlfriend lets me spend a few bucks to play TSN fantasy sports.

I didn't realize this thread had started, but as I suggested in other thread, the format we had for baseball was much better than what we used for hoops. I suggest 5 captains and bi-monthly (every two weeks) FA pickups for added interest.

If J can do standings again--he already has baseball SS ready that he can tweak for this. We could have the draft as early as tomorrow given that. I also nominate J to be a manager as well. He's got the time. If you decide on 3 captains instead of 5, J can take my spot.

What? Cross-Fire Hurricanes (Team Name)

Where? 3653 (Team I.D.)

Why? Because I am a basketball junkie with substantial knowledge of NBA personnel (i.e. I have this weird savant-like skill regarding colleges attended by NBA players, which I can name approximately 90-95% of the time). I also have had strong roto success (5 titles in the last 7 years in ESPN leagues) and am honing my TSN skills (134 WWR last year).

Plus, I am good friends with gurupie-legend, Mark L. (Please don't hold that last fact against me.)

Qual? Well, I've actually played the game for 5 years. Best finish was WWR #2 in the midseason game a couple of years ago to DD. That was the season we got 4 trades on the last day & he used his more wisely. ;-)
