  1. Not exactly. On one hand, it doesn't mean that someone who looks impressive in shorts will look that way once they have to do contract drills, but, on the other hand, to actually be there and to begin to grasp your team's concepts is never a bad thing (see Russell, Jamarcus).
  2. Moulds is a pretty good mention. The guy played well despite a seemingly non-ending stream of changing QBs and offensive coordinators, ending up w/ over 600 catches and 9,000 yards in his career as a Bill. W/ all of that chaos and to produce @ the rate he did was very impressive.
  3. In an hour, we will begin the 2009 rookie draft. Please go to the sim league subforum and check in so that I know which owners are going to be present and which ones are no shows. I do have lists from a few owners who couldn't be online today.
  4. He did? If so, that's news to me. I ran the 110s in high school and college and I remember Skeet's 12.93 being the record 'til Roger Kingdom broke it by a hundreth back in '89. How good was I? Not nearly as good as they were. My best @ the college/amateur hurdle height (3.5 ft) was 14.86, the time I ran as I took 2nd in the PSAC Championships meet in '88.
  5. 90 days and counting!!!
  6. Yes. Watching the guy chase shots all over the court @ the French Open was awesome. Rarely have I seen that kinda hustle in a tennis match. To the best of my knowledge, Jordan never won THE major golf title on a broken leg, either.
  7. Tough one, but I may go w/ Adrian "AD" Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings.
  8. Hmm. Some very interesting responses in here. I was glad to see Wilt Chamberlain get mentioned. He was known for his basketball prowess, but he also was a very fast and incredibly strong athlete. Meadowlark Lemmon once said of how Chamberlain, when he was playing w/ the Harlem Globetrotters, could throw him up in the air and catch him. Lemon was 'bout 210 @ the time. Wow. Here's my short list (haha, yeah right): Olympians Jim Thorpe Rafer Johnson Jesse Owens Carl Lewis Babe Didrickson Zaharias Jackie Joyner Kersee Wilma Rudolph Football Jim Brown Tony Gonzalez Deion Sanders Bo Jackson Baseball Willie Mays Roberto Clemente James Bell Basketball Wilt Chamberlain Michael Jordan Kobe Bryant Hakeem Olajuwon Other Sports Tiger Woods Bjorn Borg Michael Chang Roger Federer Muhammad Ali Sugar Ray Robinson
  9. 97 days and counting!!!
  10. In case you needed reminding... 103 days and counting!!!
  11. 110 days and counting!!!
  12. I guess we'd wonder how you knew.
  13. Rounds 5-7 start this morning @ 11:00am EST. If you are passing any of these rounds or if you have lists of players to submit if you're not going to be available for the time of your pick, PM me.
  14. Rounds 2-4 will start today @ 11:00am EST. I will miss most of today's rounds, so if anyone has any lists to submit or any questions, please notify Ramius.
  15. The free agent draft begins today @ 11:00am EST. The draft is held over in the Sim League subforum. The thread for Round 1 will open a few minutes prior to 11:00am EST.
  16. We just added two more owners, but there's still potentially 3 more spots open if anyone else is interested.
  17. We have a third new owner now. Still a few more openings.
  18. Everyone, though not as many times as Brady. Brady was pick 199 (6th round) while Canty was pick 132 (4th). There's nothing like the "Coulda Shoulda Woulda" game, is there?
  19. It takes up a lot more of my time (as commish and owner of 3 teams) than the other owners. Only during the time of the free agent and rookie drafts (FA draft begins Tuesday) does it take any significant time. If you take over a team, you can relocate, but there are limits. If you're interested and need to know, check out the Rules and Regulations that are listed in our league subforum.
  20. Yeah? Well, they did make mistakes and should be pointed out for such. They aren't perfect. They do make poor choices. Ha ha-they made an error! Now I feel more perfecter.
  21. Two new owners added. Still looking for a few more.
  22. Okay, we've picked up one new owner.
