Bumping to the top. Need to keep this on the main board page as much as possible.

Will we be forced to consider just folding the franchise and tossing everybody back into the pool?

I might have someone offline that would be interested. Any objections to going off the board? Figure if we don't get any interest from anyone on the board it would be better than folding the team.

Interest, access, some knowledge and activity are much more important prerequisites, slosh. Go for it.

BTW - check out post #62 in this thread for a good wrestling-related laugh. This poli-thread had some dude turning it into a French/French Canadian bashing thread, and I stuck in a comment.

I'm the person Slosh23 is referring too, and I am interested. I watch RAW,ECW and Smackdown every week along with the PPV's, monthly. Let me know.

Thanks!

Sorry Greg, you watch all the shows? I'd say you are OVER-qualified! lol...

Just kidding. I'd say unless anyone else presents themselves (and we have a little vote) you are definitely the favorite right now.

I also think we should decide in the next week or so, so the manager can start making some moves to prepare for next season.

Hey Greg - Great One is right. I'm afraid to let him in given the advantage he has of actually watching most of the shows! ;-)

I'm going to push our scoring/rules thread up so you could check it out. Keep one thing in mind - currently we do not score ECW, however there is a strong sentiment that we would add it to our league for next year, so that's something to keep in mind as you consider joining.

As I said to slosh - if you have the knowledge, interest and access, and you have slosh's reference, you'd be in a good position.

And we have also had a bit of a gentlemens agreement to not add any ECW guys at this time... Sabu was probably the exception because he was on WWE TV multiple times before we addressed the issue.

And I have also had CM Punk since he graduated high school in 1999 or something like that.. :)

Methinks it's time for action. At least GregNice is ready to make some changes on his team.

So slosh - you vouch for your recommendation I presume? He's not a flake who will disappear faster than "Mordecai"? ;-)

Ok, just to be sure....Kev is no longer an active part of our league, right? Did anyone ever hear from within the last couple of months or whatever? Is it possible that Kev is incarcerated or....ahem.....dead? (Hate to bring that up but people are people are put in jail every day and people do, well, you know, uh...die). Would hate for that to happen.

Meanwhile, what do we know about Mr. Nice? (BTW, in my experience, anybody that refers to themselves as nice.....well, you know...LOL)

It's done. We've had enough email confirmations.

GregNice, welcome to the league - you're hired!

I have one personal caveat to my vote however. You need a new board handle. Something tougher. "Rick Rude" would be good. Or maybe "DiBiase" or "Mr. Wonderful" - something like that! ;-)

Post 23 ... Thanks, maybe. : ) But I definitely have MITH to thank. He really left me with a solid team, I'm pretty happy to be challenging this season.

Ok I will change my gimmick from Greg Nice to Greg Rude (hahaha)

So for all you fat, lazy women reading this... let me show you what being a fantasy GM is really about

Team name: The Ravishing - But Yet Dangerous - Alliance.

LMAO!

"The Ravishing - But Yet Dangerous - Alliance"

Shouldn't you remove the "but"----so to speak? (and I don't mean to add "marbles" or something like that)
35Greg Rude
      ID: 57412215
      Wed, Aug 23, 2006, 17:17
Well I was just thinking it was a bit clever since Rude was in the "Dangerous Alliance" in WCW. I wanted 'Ravishing' in my team name (because of my heel turn hahaha) but then thought it be clever to add the dangerous alliance part and just put it all together. I don't know.

Nevermind my explanation, I got clarification on your statement...

We'll change to
The Ravishing -Butt Dangerous- Alliance

get it butt... rick rude...
I kill me.

I used to go to this bar in college called MoonJammers - its in Hilton Head. Thats where I got that idea for my original team name. They were very helpful.
