Tom, I'll try and take my break at 230 and be here , but in case not, could you address this.

Would it be feasable for you and the gang to set up a " Past Performance " chart. Something to the effct of a Thouroghbred Racing Form, where you could click on an oppenents name and see their track record. For example : Win Percentage, purse earnings , and leagues they have performed in, and where they placed. I think this would ADD a great deal to the interest of all participantants. On top of that, you may be able to start something in the line of Thoroghbred racing , Where you could have a few " Stakes Leagues " every year , where your Record determines if you qualify or not. I just think it gives players more goals to achieve , instead of just winning the Grand Prize. By doing this , it may keep more players in the game late , if they know their " Qualifying " for a speacial event depends on it. You Could Have the TK, Handicap, Greg A. Derby, and so on. What do U think ? Bad Idea or Worth Looking into ?

Thanks Gary~ OK let's kick this chat off a little early.

That's a great idea Gary. I'm not sure it's something we could implement now but one of the things we want to do is provide more of a profile for our participants - especially those who have been with us for a number of years - which would detail prior achievements and things like that. So we do want to do that and hopefully we'll be able to at some point soon.

Tom: what the chances that all of the following happen:
1. Westy is #1 rb in 08
2. Marshall is #1 wr in 08
3. Cutler (or warner) is #1 qb in 08 1. 80% chance in NFFC leagues
2. 85% chance in all leagues (especially with my preseason pick - Edwards - really struggling)
3. 5% chance. I still think Romo and Brees are the best bets to finish at the top.

Tom, I've been bothering Greg about this for the last two weeks, so today I'll bother you.

Any update on basketball? Not yet. I know we have to get this done soon but we're still working on that. The primary issue is finding someone who can do the backend support since it doesn't look like we'll get STATS to do it for us.

is it possible to put together a hockey league??? For the coming year? Unlikely. Is it something we could do in the future? It's certainly possible. One of the things we want to do with our partnership with NBC is to expand into other sports.

??? Johnson and Engram. I have no faith in Walker and Porter is who he is. He'll have some decent games and plenty of bad ones.

Are hockey and basketball still recognized as sports??

Just kidding, as my Penguins were a few wins away from taking home the cup!

I can't stand to watch NBA basketball.

I still love the NBA - which is pretty remarkable when you consider I'm a Bucks fan.
