With most of the teams at the 105 cap limit already, they might want to dump a high rated fighter to open up some cap room and your team would be a perfect candidate since you have the cap room. They may come calling to you.

Hadn't thought of that one.

Kenyan had a little trouble with his roster. You guys remember how that went.
Anyway, I'd like to introduce the 16th team in the UTBA.

The Oakland Assassins
Home venue, Oakland Arena

Ring girl, Beyonce Knowles

Well, you can't really go wrong with any picture of Beyonce.

CONN CHRIS · 08-31-2006, 11:19 PM

Hey, I never picked a ring card girl.

I'll go with Tallulah Bankhead. I loved the one-woman show 'Tallulah Tonight'.

bear · 08-31-2006, 11:26 PM

All of my gaming has involved retired prime fighters so the career stage will be something really new to me. Should be welcome.

Welcome KC. As the new kids I figure we'll be fighting for that first round draft pick.

Thanks, Bear. I have a feeling you'll be right about that.

When I saw that you were going to be the the other new guy I was sweating my selection of Elmer Ray since you had a lot of interesting feature writing on him in your uni.

Yep, I was thinking of selecting him but went with Cleveland Williams instead.

We're really thinking alike here. Williams and Ray were a really close call for me. I opted to go with my favorite heavy. I went through each weight class and selected my top choices at each rank 9 through 3. For 7 rated heavies I had Williams, Ray, Lyle, Hamas followed by the words and 11 other guys.

Revised rules posted on 08/30/2006 in this thread
I will leave the revised rules on page 29 / post# 580 up for 5 more days. Four managers have replied so far and said they were fine as is. On September 6, 2006 CST, I'll remove them from that post and replace the rules found on page one with the revised rules.
If I do not hear from everybody, I'll assume that they are fine with everything.

If anybody wants something changed in the rules, speak now as they will become official on 09/06/2006.

In order for me to cut down on the amount of PMs that I send to managers, I'll post any news or announcements concerning this league on this thread and leave them posted for 5 - 7 days before any changes will take place. If the managers are really interested in this league, they'll check in on this thread often enough to see the news or if any changes are about to take place. I will take into account any manager that has sent me a PM letting me know that they will be away for awhile. Also the league will follow the rules as written, so there will be no going back and changing something after it has happened. If you haven't read them, you need to. The door will always be open to changing the rules so if we change something in the middle of the season, it will be in effect from that point forward and we will not go back and fix something that has already happened.

Romultiltus · 09-01-2006, 07:40 PM

The rules are fair and fine by me.

Tomato City is eager to begin Season 2...

Romdawg88 · 09-01-2006, 08:13 PM

Yep, I'm ready to get the second season started as well. Looking forward to see how the new guys do. Man, Monday is going to be a good day season 2 starts, FSU/Miami, and no school.

No problem with the rules here either.

There was a problem with two of the guys I picked (Ike Quartey and Dick Tiger), so I've just sent SAL a PM with replacements. I should be ready to go know.
