It's that time of year again. I probably won't be going to any Warriors games this year because of the lockout, but will follow the NBA in fantasy. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, advanced, or wondered about playing, you should give this league a try. Mostly, it is to have fun, but there is some spirited competition involved, too. See how good of a GM you are with picking up players through the draft, waivers, or via trade. You never know who or what is waiting out there. If you are going to games and stuff, it's a great way to follow your team and players as you'll have a personal stake involved. Of course, bragging rights goes along with the teams and managers who finish in the playoffs and win, place, or show. Last season, we had CR2, MFP!, and NYC in the top three. Any questions or problems, post them here.

I have opened the league up in order to get twelve teams today. I just saw the e-mails from last season about a roto league. Yeah, you can see I kept up with the league e-mails . Anyhoo, I know nothing about roto, so if you want that, then someone else should set it up. I can help set it up if necessary.
We got six teams now. Still got room for another six. The league is set up for beginners as luck is involved in some of the categories and has eleven cats to the standard 9-cat league. The league does well for managers who have played for a while, too, i.e. the competition knows their players. Still, every season is different and rookies come in and take over or a guy like Aaron Afflalo surprises.
Where are MFP!, Custodianrules2, Shapecity, and others? Are they still fishing? This is the official S2/JBB GS Warriors league that Shapecity started. It's a S2/JBB tradition. I need six more managers to get a full 12 teams. If you know where they are, then tell them to get off their butts and join .
Welcome back!!! We have enough teams to hold a draft, but I am still working to get more managers/teams, so hang in there.
