~Lance Lance I'm with you on this one. The fellow owners should have piped in to over turn the commish's decision. Very poor league management, in my opinion.

[/QUOTE]WELL THEY DID AT LEAST GIVE THE GUY A FREE ENTRY INTO ANOTHER LEAGUE WHICH WAS FAIR. NOW IF THEY MADE HIM KEEP STEVE SMITH OF THE GIANTS AND SAID TOUGH LUCK THEN I WOULD BE UPSET WITH THAT DECISION. ULTIMATELY I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE GAVE HIM CAROLINA'S STEVE SMITH AND KEPT THEIE FREE ENTER AND JUST CARRIED ON WITH THE DRAFT. THE OTHER GUYS IN THAT CLEARLY KNOW THAT STEVE SMITH OF NYG WAS NOT MEANT TO BE DRAFTED THERE AND IF THEY WOULD BE THAT CUT THROAT THAT MEANS THEY MUST NOT BE VERY GOOD PLAYERS BECAUSE THEY WOULD NEED EVERY ADVANTAGE TO WIN.

(1) Adrian Peterson, MIN and Adrian Peterson, CHI

(2) Steve Smith, CAR and Steve Smith, NYG

(3) Chris Brown, TEN and Kris Brown, HOU

I believe we also broke the record for Most RB/WR With The Last Name Jones:

(1) Brandon Jones
(2) Greg Jones
(3) Jacoby Jones
(4) James Jones
(5) Julius Jones
(6) Kevin Jones
(7) Matt Jones
(8) Thomas Jones
Honorable mention: Maurice Jones-Drew In the 7th rd I called out CHAD Curtis. Got the 5'11'ish fast white guys right but the wrong sport

1) LaDainian Tomlinson and Steven Jackson went 1-2 in all 26 main event leagues. They also went 1-2 in every Draft Champions League and the Ultimate League.
Wow, so I guess I'm a little LUCKY getting Steven Jackson at # 3 in an online league yesterday?

Maybe I'm even MORE lucky landing Steve Smith at 2.10... Hope I didn't screw it up... [/QUOTE]Holy Moly, Scott.

good move fantasy jungle. think a pick is a pick when its for that kind of money. giving the player another team was a great remedy. there was a little drama at vegas league 3's draft that i will go into when i get home. i think we need a rule implemented.

If you call out Chex Mix instead of Anthony Mix, are the facilitators supposed to ask if you want Traditional, Cheddar or Hot n' Spicy?
