  1. Some of us might be elated, but I think the league on the whole is otherwise.
  2. Tomorrow, when my check comes in, I'll get a cheap flex package and create some linemen and backups. I'll check in with you guys as to what to make.
  3. I thought he said it was going to be Collier?
  4. Depending on the price, I might be willing to do the monthly subs for elder scrolls
  5. 1. I can't find VHL Team, if it exists yet. 2. Are you going to update the OP?
  6. I wasn't in the original MSFL. I only started doing football leagues with VFL. I was in MSFL reborn for about 5 minutes, but I don't remember who my player was there, only that I signed on as a free agent with Bash's team and it died maybe a week or two later. I did the same thing with MM, except was drafted to Bash's team and it lasted a little longer after I joined (maybe a month) before dying. It seems like all the leagues I joined partway in (as opposed to being there from the beginning) I was the harbinger of their death as leagues. Next time one starts up, I need to join a team that's not Bash's, maybe that'll prevent its inevitable demise. EDIT: Nope, it wasn't even Reborn. I wasn't in the league that the "Still exists" link goes to. It was some other restart of an old league, one that happened AFTER the VFL was dead. Maybe ISL or something?
  7. Yeah I hope he picks it up, he was solid at the beginning of the last SSN, if he can bring that here it'll make this draft class even better
  8. I know who he is. At their respective peaks, I'd have taken Aenir. Fact of the matter is, right now Aenir isn't active and MapFreak is, hence me going with MapFreak.
  9. Re: Jagr Hard to classify him because he did help us out so much back in the day, but the way in which he left still stings. I'd put him closer to hate than like for that reason.
  10. Exactly. He was one where I respected his level as a player, but hated him because he cost us for several seasons. Kind of the same with Jim Carey before him.
  11. Like: Greg Hardy LeSean McCoy Larry Fitzgerald Steve Smith Darrelle Revis HM: Luke Kuechly Hate: Tom Brady Adam Vinatieri Geno Smith Pat McAfee Michael Vick HM: Ben Roethlisberger For the more astute among you, you may have noticed a trend. Shady, Fitz, Revis all former PITT players. Geno and McAfee were West Virginia. My college fanhood is much stronger than my pro fanhood, as would generally be the case from an alumnus of a D1 school, and often bleeds into who I like and dislike at the pro level.
  12. Like: (current) Brooks Orpik Olli Maatta Henrik Lundquist Rick Nash Ilya Bryzgalov (don't even mind his Philly phase) Like: (all time) Jim Paek Mario Lemieux Ron Francis Darius Kasparaitis Joe Mullen I'll throw a 6th in here: Tom Barrasso Hate: (all time, includes one current) Chris Simon Eric Lindros Zac Rinaldo Peter Bondra Ron Hextall HM: Olaf Kolzig
  13. Any rule about using former players? I don't know if there are 5 current players I hate badly enough.
  14. DE made - the return of Stanley Benedum, for those of you who were in SSN
  15. We need to get a bunch of guys to line up retirements and name their next guys after characters I can just see having quite a bit of fun as Harmon Tedesco, an undersized winger with a drug problem and a habit of having goals called off for kicking motion...
  16. Chargoggagoggmanchaugagoggghaubunagungamogg.
  17. I might make a guy tomorrow. If so, either CB or DE, depending on which is needed more at the time I make the guy. Never played before so you'll have to let me know how it works.
  18. If you happen to pass through Bangkok at all, there's a building in the Bangkok Christian College named after my great grandfather, the John Anderson Eakin building. Get a picture for me if you're in the area.
  19. Watching it now. I'm on the 8th episode, first 7 were great, 8th one I have a bit of an issue with. I played lacrosse in high school, and we weren't all a bunch of rich kids in suits. (Well, I went to a high school that was for people who were either smart enough to get a scholarship or rich enough to pay for it, so while I was in the first category, there were certainly a few in the second, but not all or even a majority of the team.) I'm finding it hard to side with the football guys when I actually played lacrosse, even though the episode is clearly set up for the viewer to side with football. Setting this one episode aside though, I'm enjoying it. Thanks for giving me something to watch, Kyle.
