    Can we start up a new debate contest? We never finished the one imported from www.bballworld.us, besides, it'll be fun if it's active and if people are willing to participate. All we need is three judges, and eight contestants. Can we get it going?

    Google is fine. Always fun to learn, and easier when someone else does the legwork (googling).</p>

    I'd play or judge.</p>

    Petey - you lose. Automatic.</p>

    I personally would be very interested in this, it's a challenge of one's NBA knowledge.

    Petey, it's just that the guy who's running the sim league makes the tournament bracket and topics for each match up. Two people would debate it out and after a week the judges would declare a winner on who portrayed their point the strongest and exhibited the most NBA knowledge. </p>

    I would explain them if you guys created a new forum for the Debate Contest. I would make the thread, and you guys could sticky it. I can't explain it here, it's pointless. </p>

    Yes, there should be easily enough topics to cover a 16 man tournament. BTW, Zards, if you need help I can help you out with this contest.</p>

    Yeah, just NBA. If we finish it, we could do NFL or MLB, but I won't participate considering the fact that I don't know much about either sports. </p>
