Are we getting vBookie odds on the #1 pick????

[Ryan]

Yeah, the 22 in 82 was pretty cool, so something like that would be nice to see again.

I liked the 22 to watch in '82 also. I'd like to see that return.

[Jim]

I've thought about it, but there isn't much time to do that because everything happens so quickly from now till Opening Day. I was thinking about another thing like the "22 in 82". Also considering setting some props for wins with the new vBookie interface.

Who knows...

I liked your players to watch from last year....it would be cool if you did it again.

[Jistic]

Maybe a quick preview? Some predictions on division winners, award winners. Or a draft review?

Yeah, I noticed a ton of Nicknames too. We should edit the Nickname database for the BLB to add some more. That would be fun to tweak with. I'd also love to get into the injury database.

I need to feed my writing jones somehow.

How about a full season preview?

This is the all nickname draft. I've seen a ton. And some very funny.


Here's a great one...Feitze 'Bad Company' van de Weideven

[Jistic]

Nope, completely different than last year. This one has autopick logic built in so I no longer need to use the game to autopick. Should speed up the draft quite a bit and make it MUCH easier on me.

Clay was right...it IS all about you.

[Andrew]

Word. It's good.

Is this the same as last year? It seemed like last year we used one that was like the OSFL? Or am I completely high?

Doesn't work for me. I log in and can see last sims top performaces, etc. but nothing on the draft.

There is a link to the other utilities in the banner. The draft link is just below the C in Carolina.
