that game featured a bench clearing brawl that spilled into the stands though DeAaron wasn't a direct participant. This post reminds me that I forgot that I wanted to say an unintended consequence of the backup system for me is that it is now more difficult to give partial scores because if there are dnps with 2nd chances I can't speculate on which player's number will count. I also notice there is more space in the schedule between games where back to backs are often followed by 2-3 days off or a 4 game week is followed by a 2 game week
In reference to the above post I now wait until there are finals to report before giving partial score updates for remaining matches with players yet to be counted
A little ashamed to admit it, but took the daughter to her first-ever Blazer game tonight (she turned 21 on Saturday). Dame's 500th, as it turned out. As they did to the Raptors on Friday, Portland's second unit ran Memphis - starters included - out of the gym. Nice win, although, I swear, just watching the Grizzlies is physically exhausting. The Blazer broadcasters say their style of play takes the NBA back 30 years. I say more like 60 years. Where's the lantern-jawed Neil Johnston with his hook shot? High pivot anyone? They'd probably go into a four-corner stall if there wasn't a shot clock. Jesus. I do like that young JareJackJu for Memphis. Good looking player.
Alt-Delete gets a second chance on MC3, but no relief for Cauley-Stein's sit-your-ass-down 3, and the E Team posts a 222-197 win.

Alt-Delete does not have a player in his lineup who is a 5 or center eligible neither Saric nor LBJ are 5s this is against the rules here so I'm not sure how we should handle it CStein and Collins are 5 eligible but weren't posted as starters
Mark, Weird that the ruling on this feels so unfamiliar. I would think that an illegal lineup would result in a 0 score for whichever player is not legit and everybody else would just get whatever they get. However, I checked on Alt-D's Saric when he posted him as a center (Get it? Posted him. As a center.) and it turns out that, sure enough, the soft-hearted Yahoo fantasy rankings has him at three positions, including center. So he's good.
And yes, the E Team accepts Kama'aina Swat's island-time lineup submission. Okole maluna, brah. Knock back a chi chi for me, will ya?
Saric has never played center ever sixers use Amir Johnson and last year Richaun Holmes behind Embiid ABA-(Hawaii).I think Anaheim Amigos who became what team? Amigos played Oaks at the Auditorium here in first ABA game who hit first 3 pointer? In later game what Oaks player who you would know from Portland got the first ever 4 point play?What team did Oaks become? Did you know Oaks played in Coliseum Arena their 2nd season which gave Warriors the idea to move from Cow Palace for 1970 season?
I appeared in the forgettable 1977 tv pilot "Danger In Paradise" filmed in some beautiful locations which became "Big Hawaii" which last 9 weeks on NBC that fall. It was Bonanza in Hawaii I was a paniolo cowboy but my real job was pakalolo which is so ono....Puna Butter and Kona Gold which I assisted in importing to Oakland ...I was offered a job at KPUA radio in Hilo I should've taken it but it rained so hard for 2 weeks straight that April I scurried back to the mainland.....
Good lord. I should have known the Amigos question would be a slam dunk for Mark, the Pakalolo Paniolo, voice of the Big Island.
First ABA four-pointer? I dunno. Jim Barnett? Dave Wohl? Shaler Halimon?
Meanwhile, the E Team wields Beal's overtime-enhanced 67 like a fire-hardened war club and chases Hapa Swat over the pali, 230-170. Hey, does Russell Westbrook always shoot, like, 20 percent from the field? I've never had the loser on my team before. Whatever.

Last weekend's supplemental was not found under any header because our header guy has become a bit hit and miss. The League Office did its best to alert team owners of the event under whatever header was current.
Sorry for the delayed response. Upon drafting Dario Saric he was listed as a 3,4,5. However, in week 20 I will be going back to starting the very unpredictable Willie Cauley- Stein at the 5!
Merry Christmas Sam and to all of you as well! I never use Yahoo for positions but it was voted in so I'm stuck with it. No games until tomorrow so lock is early Tuesday Invaders go with Embiid/Kanter...Griff/Sabonis...Derozan/Hood...Harden/Russell...Wall/Williams and Galinari/Clarkson
Happy Xmas and the like, you merry lads, from gloriously sunny Twin Lakes in Santa Cruz. Went for a polar bear dip this morning and all is right with the world.
Gee, I hope everyone knows to post their lineups here.
I got nobody going in the Bucks-Knicks thing, so I should be ahead of deadline with this.
Invaders-ETeam...Wingos-Nitecaps...Ticket-P4...Swat-Alt-Delete...I will plug in everyone's lineup from last match I will allow backups posted from prior match this time because of the heading problem and holiday unless there's an objection? Teams that didn't post backups for match 19 don't get them now.

The good thing about going up against a 257 is that you don't have to agonize over the guys you might have put in your lineup to get you a win. You just lose.
let's reach out for Tom by mass emails/phone or text... whatever.I don't have his number....Hawthorne this is match 21 without the headings Tom always provided it's confusing...Invaders play Embiid/Kanter...Griff/Sabonis...Derozan/Galinari...Harden/Clarkson...Wall/Williams...Wiggins/Russell...Wall is out tonight might play Saturday
Was at the Bucket Brigade watching the final college game of my namesake Eric Dungey, the Syracuse QB and son of my childhood best friend. But he kinda sucked, and so did the game, and I forgot to attend to my lineup in the process.
No big. E Team will stay with W'Brook, Drumm, Aldridge, Beal, AaGordon, Markkanen, and forego my platoon backups if necessary. My bad.
I have attempted to contact my old friend Ticket directly and have not yet heard anything back. Will keep yous posted.
Dave I/we need the password from Tom to get in the blog to post headings no one can contact him I get in via an old link I can only post under existing headings. We're supposed to have a supplemental tomorrow so Eric should make new standings I will check tonight if all the games are finals. I need a replacement for Wall who's having season ending surgery...the league's problems can be dealt with I believe
Has anyone considered starting a new site? Throw together a little website with a blog on it? I just get the impressing that no one is really interested in this anymore. Am I wrong?

Invaders-Ticket...P4-ETeam...Nitecaps-Alt/Delete...Swat-Wingos....we could post to everyone via the group email link Eric sends the standings out on unless or until somebody can figure out how to do headings on this blog any other ideas??
Hey, you guys. I have not heard anything from Tom despite numerous attempts to contact him. I'm frankly a bit concerned. He's been struggling and not sounding terribly upbeat the last few times I spoke to him. Long story. Won't tell it here.
My wish is that he'll read this and know we're thinking - and talking - about him. I assume I can speak for all of us in hoping to have him happy and back in the fold soon. In the meantime, we've got to make due.
If any of you guys knows enough to start a new blog or figure out how to access the controls of this one, cool. I'm not the guy. I don't know this stuff. But any help is obviously welcome.
I propose we leave Ticket's inert lineup as is until either he comes back, or it makes a complete seven-team round. At that point, we can either use his current scoring average as a controlled opponent, or switch to the actual Kontrol, which can be activated and released from its cell in the superfortress.
And until further notice, there should be minimal kvetching about the inconvenience. We post on this site, which means starters and backups. We know the drill. Mark was right to allow the one-time rollover, and it don't think any outcome was affected anyway. Now we're back to work. You want backups, post them in timely fashion. Simple.
Supplementals are every other Sunday at 11 AM Pacific Time. The last one was two days ago. The next one is Jan. 13. Put it in your little devices. Your mom isn't going to wake you up to remind you.
We've got 13 matches to play after the current Match 22. Mark, probably the most expert player evaluator among us, has never won a title, but is crushing it this year like nothing we've ever seen. Now he loses a top pick, Wall. Will it matter? Is any other squad good enough to take two of three from him in a final? Which? We'll know in about eight weeks.
Now get out there and do your worst, you dogs. And Happy New Year to all.
I reiterate the concern for Tom and the need to keep on going with this brave new world of posting backups. I've never won a title but won the regular season last year and finished 2nd at least 2-3 times I think in the playoffs... I'm playing Tom now and even if he had switched players my team sans Wall (see Donald we don't need a Wall!) is still formidable scoring 256. Final Swat beats the Wingos 196-186 SW(Lillard-38...Murray-18...Tatum-26...Vucevic-22...KAT-56...Ayton-36) HW(Kemba-34...Butler-27...FCollins-42...reak-34...Tobias-30...Fox-19)...Final Nitecaps cap(in the mobster sense) Alt/Delete 217-162 Caps(Simmons-33...McCullom-20...Doncic-27...Randle-47...Jokic-52...Jrue-38) AD(LBJ-DNP...Conley-31...Hield-37...Kawhi-52...CStein-20...Klay-22) Lakers haven't played yet but it's well known Lebron won't play...ETeam-P4 and Invaders-Ticket await further stats half of Eteam has yet to play

Can I just have the numbers from that insane Thunder-Spurs game tonight? Aldridge 73 and Westbrook 63? Or maybe they do it again in the second half of the home-and-home. Oh hell yeah!

In an amazing bit of disprespect to the Wingos, De'Aaron Fox was given the start after games 40 and 42 last week, and delivered a 1!

Inspired by Sean's Hawaiian Christmas. There's exactly one guy in this league that could have a shot at answering this question:
Name the original ABA franchise that played three regular season home games in Honolulu in the association's first year, '67-'68.

The only header showing anything about a supplemental was 3 weeks ago.
E Team:
Last weekend's supplemental was not found under any header because our header guy has become a bit hit and miss. The League Office did its best to alert team owners of the event under whatever header was current.
For Match 20 the Wingos play:
1-Fox (Ball)
2-Bledsoe (Hardaway)
3-Giannis (Butler)
4-Tobias (J.Allen)
5-J.Collins (DeAndre)
U-Kemba (Monk)
Merry Christmas!
Sorry for the delayed response. Upon drafting Dario Saric he was listed as a 3,4,5. However, in week 20 I will be going back to starting the very unpredictable Willie Cauley- Stein at the 5!
1. Olidipo (Conley)
2. Hield (Reggie Jackson)
3. Kawhai (Fornier)
4. LBJ (Saric)
5. Cauley-Stein (Horford)
U. Klay Thompson (Rubio)
Merry Christmas from your future Rookie of the Year!
Merry Christmas Sam and to all of you as well! I never use Yahoo for positions but it was voted in so I'm stuck with it. No games until tomorrow so lock is early Tuesday Invaders go with Embiid/Kanter...Griff/Sabonis...Derozan/Hood...Harden/Russell...Wall/Williams and Galinari/Clarkson
E Team:
Happy Xmas and the like, you merry lads, from gloriously sunny Twin Lakes in Santa Cruz. Went for a polar bear dip this morning and all is right with the world.
Gee, I hope everyone knows to post their lineups here.
I got nobody going in the Bucks-Knicks thing, so I should be ahead of deadline with this.
Westbrook 1 (Shroder)
Drummond 5 (Nurkic)
Aldridge 4 (Kuzma)
Beal 3 (Ingram)
Markkanen 2 (Lamb)
AaGord 6 (D.Rose
Que todos disfruten este dia navidadeno con sus familias y otros queridos!
Invaders-ETeam...Wingos-Nitecaps...Ticket-P4...Swat-Alt-Delete...I will plug in everyone's lineup from last match I will allow backups posted from prior match this time because of the heading problem and holiday unless there's an objection? Teams that didn't post backups for match 19 don't get them now.
Match 21
Damian
D.Mitchell - JJ Redick
Tatum - B. Bogdonavic
Vucevic - JJ Jr.

Looks like Ticket is AWOL, last message he left on the site December 9th at 2:40 am:
"Please be prepared to open another blog site. Thanks for the entertainment."
Hope he is okay.
Yes I remember that message has anyone tried calling him? Final Swat victory over Alt Delete posted above is confirmed although it's 192-158 Swat adds to 192 although individual numbers are correct...Final Invaders roll over the Eteam 257-192 I(Embiid-54...Griff-41...Derozan-45...Harden-57...Wall-37...Galinari-23) E(Westbrook-44...Lamarcus-34...Drummond-36...Beal-30...Markanen-23...AGorgon-25) Final MIA Ticket wins with 5 guys defeating P4 211-201 T(Paul-DNP...Tyreke-26...George-47...AD-54...Capela-44...Gobert-40) P4(Curry-23...Kyrie-54...Middleton-16...KD-36...MGas-40...Whiteside-32) Final Wingos beat the Nitecaps 225-187 HW(Kemba-38...Hardaway-28...Freak-53...Collins-33...Butler-36...Tobias-27) Caps(Simmons-38...McCullom-19...Doncic-41...Randle-31...Jokic-20...Jrue-38) Invaders 257 is MHS winner
E Team:
The good thing about going up against a 257 is that you don't have to agonize over the guys you might have put in your lineup to get you a win. You just lose.
Wingos hope Ticket is okay.
Wingos for Match 22:
1-Kemba (Ball)
2-Butler (Hardaway)
3-Giannis (WChandler)
4-Tobias (JAllen)
5-JCollins (DeAndre)
U-Fox (Monk)
let's reach out for Tom by mass emails/phone or text... whatever.I don't have his number....Hawthorne this is match 21 without the headings Tom always provided it's confusing...Invaders play Embiid/Kanter...Griff/Sabonis...Derozan/Galinari...Harden/Clarkson...Wall/Williams...Wiggins/Russell...Wall is out tonight might play Saturday
ETeam-Wingos...Swat-P4...Invaders-Nitecaps...Ticket/Alt/Delete
E Team:
Was at the Bucket Brigade watching the final college game of my namesake Eric Dungey, the Syracuse QB and son of my childhood best friend. But he kinda sucked, and so did the game, and I forgot to attend to my lineup in the process.
No big. E Team will stay with W'Brook, Drumm, Aldridge, Beal, AaGordon, Markkanen, and forego my platoon backups if necessary. My bad.
I have attempted to contact my old friend Ticket directly and have not yet heard anything back. Will keep yous posted.
Is anyone going to take control of this league or is going to die a slow painful death?
Dave I/we need the password from Tom to get in the blog to post headings no one can contact him I get in via an old link I can only post under existing headings. We're supposed to have a supplemental tomorrow so Eric should make new standings I will check tonight if all the games are finals. I need a replacement for Wall who's having season ending surgery...the league's problems can be dealt with I believe

E Team
... will sit this one out.
No games were finals until tonight I might pick after everyone is done later tonight after I post finals here
Does anyone have E Mudiay?
Has anyone considered starting a new site? Throw together a little website with a blog on it? I just get the impressing that no one is really interested in this anymore. Am I wrong?
By the way Mark...great match between you and Rich in the ESPN football league.
Wait...is Erics ban on talking about other fantasy leagues still in effect? My bad.
I believe Mudiay is still available Dave.
I am still interested, had some work to do earlier, but looking over some supplimental options now.
I don't understand why even if Tom is decided to bow out half way though the season why we can't get access to finish out the year.
So, are we just going to open another page in Blogger then and move on?
I'll drop T. Burke for E. Mudiay
E Team:
Logs a 224-207 win over Wingo, by my count.
Anyone with more expertise than myself in setting up an alternate blog site is welcome to try that as a remedy just tell me how to access it. Thanks Dave that was a tough loss for me in the semi-final but Chris Beg beat Rich today. Final ETeam indeed defeated Wingos 224-207 E(Westbrook-60...Drummond-28...Lamarcus-37...Beal-48...AGordon-22...Markanen-29) HW(Kemba-39...Butler-15...Freak-56...Tobias-21...Collins-35...Fox-41) ...Final AWOL Ticket beats Alt/Delete 193-162 T(Paul-DNP...Tyreke-18...George-43...AD-73...Capela-17...Gobert-42) AD(Conley-41...Hield-26...Kawhi-19...LBJ-DNP...CStein-28...Klay-38) Tyreke was early call Thursday I didn't allow the carryover of Saric for LBJ because I felt letting one game pass for the confusion was enough of a break Saric had 14 so it's moot in this case other than total points...Final Invaders squeak by the Nitecaps 198-196 I(Kanter-8...Griff-30...Derozan-26...Harden-61...L.Williams-46...Wiggins-27) Caps(Simmons-26...McCullom-20...Doncic-39...Randle-36...Jokic-39...Jrue-36) DNPs by Wall and Embiid ...Final Swat victory and total above are confirmed Sean takes MHS with 245
Attention everyone there is an early lock noon Hawks/Pacers and Hornets/Magic are at 3pm
.Invaders drop Wall add Larry Nance jr. 4-5 for Match 22 Invaders go with Embiid/Sabonis...Griff/Nance...Derozan/Galinari...Harden/Clarkson....Williams/Russell...Wiggins/Kanter
Invaders-Ticket...P4-ETeam...Nitecaps-Alt/Delete...Swat-Wingos....we could post to everyone via the group email link Eric sends the standings out on unless or until somebody can figure out how to do headings on this blog any other ideas??
Larry Nance Jr is already on P4 squad Mark.
See November 1 Draft Final/Supp. Mark

E Team:
Hey, you guys. I have not heard anything from Tom despite numerous attempts to contact him. I'm frankly a bit concerned. He's been struggling and not sounding terribly upbeat the last few times I spoke to him. Long story. Won't tell it here.
My wish is that he'll read this and know we're thinking - and talking - about him. I assume I can speak for all of us in hoping to have him happy and back in the fold soon. In the meantime, we've got to make due.
If any of you guys knows enough to start a new blog or figure out how to access the controls of this one, cool. I'm not the guy. I don't know this stuff. But any help is obviously welcome.
I propose we leave Ticket's inert lineup as is until either he comes back, or it makes a complete seven-team round. At that point, we can either use his current scoring average as a controlled opponent, or switch to the actual Kontrol, which can be activated and released from its cell in the superfortress.
And until further notice, there should be minimal kvetching about the inconvenience. We post on this site, which means starters and backups. We know the drill. Mark was right to allow the one-time rollover, and it don't think any outcome was affected anyway. Now we're back to work. You want backups, post them in timely fashion. Simple.
Supplementals are every other Sunday at 11 AM Pacific Time. The last one was two days ago. The next one is Jan. 13. Put it in your little devices. Your mom isn't going to wake you up to remind you.
We've got 13 matches to play after the current Match 22. Mark, probably the most expert player evaluator among us, has never won a title, but is crushing it this year like nothing we've ever seen. Now he loses a top pick, Wall. Will it matter? Is any other squad good enough to take two of three from him in a final? Which? We'll know in about eight weeks.
Now get out there and do your worst, you dogs. And Happy New Year to all.
- The League Office
E Team:
Couldn't pull the trigger on Nurkic. He goes 24-23-7-5-5. Wow.
I reiterate the concern for Tom and the need to keep on going with this brave new world of posting backups. I've never won a title but won the regular season last year and finished 2nd at least 2-3 times I think in the playoffs... I'm playing Tom now and even if he had switched players my team sans Wall (see Donald we don't need a Wall!) is still formidable scoring 256. Final Swat beats the Wingos 196-186 SW(Lillard-38...Murray-18...Tatum-26...Vucevic-22...KAT-56...Ayton-36) HW(Kemba-34...Butler-27...FCollins-42...reak-34...Tobias-30...Fox-19)...Final Nitecaps cap(in the mobster sense) Alt/Delete 217-162 Caps(Simmons-33...McCullom-20...Doncic-27...Randle-47...Jokic-52...Jrue-38) AD(LBJ-DNP...Conley-31...Hield-37...Kawhi-52...CStein-20...Klay-22) Lakers haven't played yet but it's well known Lebron won't play...ETeam-P4 and Invaders-Ticket await further stats half of Eteam has yet to play

E Team:
Kuzmama's Boy leaves at halftime, having given the E Team just enough to slip past the faltering P4. If he doesn't return, it'll be 200-191.
I now have Lowry, Kuzma, Barton, D.Rose, Valenciunas, and Lamb out. Nice.
Final Eteam does indeed win despite Kuzma's mother issue defeating E(Kuzma-9...Markanen-23...Beal-36...Lamarcus-49...Drummond-25...Westbrook-58) P4 200-191 P4(Kyrie-29...Curry-48...Middleton-29...MGas-33...KD-31...Whiteside-21)...Final Invaders demolish the autopilot Ticket 256-175 I(Embiid-54...Griff-44...Derozan-31...Harden-68...LWilliams-32...Wiggins-27) T(Paul-DNP...Tyreke-14...George-31...AD-68...Capela-33...Gobert-29) Invader 256 takes MHS ..Yo Sean whereas African-American vernacular favors "cappin a sucka" as you suggest Sicilians just have the dude capped but of course if the target is a made guy you can't do it without a sit down first as Joe Pesci learned in Goodfellas. My maternal grandfather was associated with the Jewish mob in NY his life was like depicted in Leone's "Once Upon a Time in America" so this stuff fascinates me
