Author TOPIC: Draft date?

Quick question for anyone who can answer. On the 'Key Dates' page it has the draft listed as May 9 at noon, which is a Monday (and opening day). I'm assuming that's an error, but I just want to make sure it's actually scheduled for May 7 after the second try-out as it usually is (at noon). Can somebody clarify this for me so I can make sure I'm available to attend? Thanks in advance - looking forward to another great season.

A few years ago we had a big bust..... The first pick was so heavily hyped coming into the draft...... that the team scouts were comparing him to the next Gayman and there were rumors that his stick was like Big Ricky.... He turned out to be average player

Most teams in the bottom half of the league are in that position because of consecutive bad drafts. The key is to have a keen eye to access the ability of the players trying out. Some teams simply don't have that skill set.

I don't want any player who doesn't want to play for our team. Get draft picks that fit your team methodology works.

Let’s continue to build healthy team relationships. Let’s keep earning the trust of those we do play with and against.

Some teams may need to pass on certain players.

Passing is a good gesture, some guys are only coming to play ball with their buddies. So ensuring that they get to the appropriate teams would be the honorable thing to do.

Over the years during the draft we have tried to be as kind as possible while at the same time gently nudging teams to do the right thing. This in turn would affect how mass consciousness would make the overall league better. Happy drafting all!

If a guy wants to play on a specific team.... Why would another team dispute that desire ..... The spirit of this league is to be fair to everyone

You know the saying “crying crocodile tears”? It’s meant in a way that implies you’re faking it that the tears aren’t real. Ever wonder where that saying comes from?

Well, curiosity got the best of me and I did some searching: apparently, crocodiles (in an ancient story, anyways) would weep to lure prey closer before snapping on to them. Then who’s crying?

Look out for those croc teams.

This a fun and competitive league all in one. Hence the confusion on most players. Play hard and enjoy yourself should be the motto.

Really? For-real. You can wear your metal spikes for tap dancing - not on the ball diamond. Go with the molded plastic and rubber.

Rockstar 81 flavours fortunately the endorsement is covered and renewed under OA and CPP benefits (thank you tax payers).

My endorsement continues – this year I’m into a one piece combined spandex compression short and adult diaper. Don’t want to pull anything while I’m going.

So, who was the first pick overall? Is he a Bargniani or LeBron? Anybody land a gem with a late pick? Predictions for Newcomer of the year???

Blue 11 was a man next to the mere youngsters with a below average glove.

The big man wearing eleven in blue was the best guy out their on Saturday. If he was a 9 out of 10, everyone else was a 4 at best.
