Subject: TSN: New positions & players - 2003/2004 Season


  Posted by: Blooki - [407402820] Mon, Sep 22, 2003, 16:40

Post players that you think should be IPOed or gain new position eligibility here.

Criteria for being IPOed
- Has played or will very likely play in a regular season game
- Is not currently in the TSN system

Criteria for new position eligibility
- Has started at least 5 games a position he is not currently eligible for

Hopefully TSN will make note of our posts throughout the season and the introduction of players and new position eligibilities will be expedited.

Antonio McDyess

I'll start it off with him. Clearly if he plays, he'll have a significant impact on the Knicks and should be in TSN's system. Last report I have concerning McDyess is from the NY Daily News (09/04/03) and it indicates there is a possibility he'll be available for the opener.

Well Antonio McDyess is an obvious early-IPO candidate.

Oh... With all the young punks running around the league this coming season, there's a definite need for Olden "The Cop" Polynice to be IPOed as soon as humanly possible! In addition to being a self-proclaimed law-enforcer, officer Polynice will no doubt do some ballin' as well, what with the lousy center-situation up in the Clipperland and all.

Alonzo Mourning could be a nice addition.

Also, countless players are currently listed with the wrong team. Not really a problem I suppose, it's gonna get corrected before the season anyway.

Given the game time freezes this year, it's important that TSN gets the team affiliations correct.
