Franchise GM: Archives / Expanding RC to 9?
« on: May 08, 2013, 11:00:26 AM »
Colby (Colby) :PIT:
Ben (Brewers GM) :MIL:
Dan (Dan Wood) :CIN:
Roy (rcankosy) :TEX:
Mike (VolsRaysBucs) :TB:
Bob (Shooter 47) :BAL:
Freddy (kungfuwig) :KC:

We need representation from larger markets, the NL West, and NL East.  I propose adding the following GMs to the RC to make it a panel of nine (30% of league).

Chris (joeshmoe) :SD: or Ernesto (Flash) :SF:
Chris (papps) :PHI:

Chris' opinions and focus on establishing sound rules would be valuable.  Flash and papps are also long-time members with a great understanding of the rules.

What is up with the Braves?  This team hasn't had a losing record in FGM history but is a train wreck right now!

NBA News / Bobcats fire Dunlap after 21-61 season
« on: April 23, 2013, 02:21:37 PM »
Charlotte has reportedly fired their head coach after just one season.  The Bobcats were expected to be pretty bad this year, so perhaps they are clearing Dunlap to bring in a big name (Jordan?).

NBA News / NBA Coach of the Year: Our two finalists are…
« on: April 19, 2013, 08:26:27 PM »
This article is brought to you by our friends at Fantasy Furnace...
 
As we have reached the end of the NBA season, this much we know…MVP honors will probably be going to LeBron James with Carmelo Anthony a close second. Sixth Man of the Year Award will be between Jamaal Crawford and our pick-J.R. Smith. The top Rookie of the Year leader is Damian Lillard with Anthony Davis right behind. And a front-runner for Most Improved Player should have Greivis Vasquez on that list.
 
But what about the Coach of the Year? There are many deserving ones out there to be sure. The list includes Erik Spoelstra, Scott Brooks ,Gregg Popovich, and there’s even been a few fans calling for Mark Jackson. All worthy candidates to be sure. However not one of them made our short list which is comprised of two coaches, that to us anyway, should be the clear-cut favorites to garner this year’s prestigious award.
 
The first is George Karl. You have to give props to a coach who has led his team to the most wins (56) in the history of the franchise as well as the most home wins in a season, currently at 37. Denver’s home record of 37-3 rivals that of the Heat, Spurs, and Thunder so why not give it to a coach who doesn’t have one player that averages 20 points a game?
 
Karl’s naysayers will tell you that his resume in the post-season since joining the Nuggets is underwhelming at best, losing in the first round seven times while making it to- but losing in- the Conference Finals in 2008-’09. This is quite true, however Coach of the Year honors go to a coaches body of work during the regular season, notafter it.
 
We realize that Karl’s illnesses (prostate, throat, and neck cancer) should not enter into the equation for the voters, but on a personal note, one cannot even imagine how he was able to deal with and overcome these dreaded diseases and still stay focused on his team when he returned to the court. (His son Colby out of Boise State University, played in the NBA & other leagues, and he too is a thyroid cancer survivor).
 
Our second choice for Coach of the Year is...

NBA News / Cleveland fires coach Byron Scott
« on: April 18, 2013, 12:47:48 PM »
Cleveland has had a 64-166 record in the past three seasons under Byron Scott.  He has been let go by the team.  Yes, this is post-Lebron, but the Cavaliers rebounded with the talented Kyrie Erving last year, so expectations were raised especially for this season.  Playoffs were rather unlikely, but Cleveland was expected to finish better than 3rd worst in the East with a 24-58 record.

  • Jwalkerjr88: Yup, sometimes people dont see the vision. Sometimes the vision Fricks up. You dont know till the chips are cashed in
    May 28, 2024, 10:12:50 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: I once traded a full draft class 1-7, an additional 1st, 3 offensive flyer players for what player you might ask?
    May 28, 2024, 10:13:27 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: WR Jalen Reagor lmaaooo  :rofl:
    May 28, 2024, 10:14:04 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: And won my first chip that same season. Reagor starting in the flex scoring 9 points

  • jmntl82: How did the other team finish?
    May 28, 2024, 10:16:01 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: It was dallas. I think he missed the playoffs that year. Then used the draft picks on the 2021 class. Every pick was the 32nd pick (dont remembee what the other 1st became)
    May 28, 2024, 10:18:22 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Idk if anyone remembers the 2021 class but it was weak on offense outside or the top 10-15. I dont regret the deal just learned and move on. As long as you have assets, you can mold your build how you want. Picks are usually the most valuable asset because most gms want in on a draft.
    May 28, 2024, 10:19:34 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: The results of that draft class is here [link]
    May 28, 2024, 10:20:27 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Every 32 overall pick dallas makes in each round came from that trade
    May 28, 2024, 10:20:54 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: The 2024 and 2025 classes look much more promising than that one lol
    May 28, 2024, 10:22:06 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: 2021 draft class was my worst class as a NFL Live gm. my 2022 and 2023 were better
    May 28, 2024, 10:32:52 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: I think it was the worst for most of us. It was a bad class overall. The top was amazing tho
    May 28, 2024, 10:42:05 PM
  • jimw: Etienne is amazing. He was near the top of that draft lol

  • Braves155: Daddy, has ProFSL hired you as a spreadsheet guru yet? Or you decline cuz it didn't include benefits?

    Yesterday at 08:37:26 PM
  • Brent: Well that brings back memories when I was on the ProFSL staff and paid.
    Yesterday at 08:58:08 PM
  • Daddy: ProFSL has to be established by having great product or at least different product. We had the same old members. "Get off my lawn" types wanting to run leagues that were identical to the others. If you want 100 of the same old guys never chatting and no guests on the site. We had how many years of that?
    Yesterday at 09:12:05 PM
  • Daddy: If running a league is so hard, How can i run 6 of them? At the same time.
    Yesterday at 09:14:11 PM
  • Daddy: No moderators, no leagues, no leagues no traffic, no traffic no staff, no staff no profsl.
    Yesterday at 09:15:25 PM
  • Daddy: Its not as easy to find moderators. And if you are a moderator to come up with start up league concepts and do all that manual work. It takes a rare breed.
    Yesterday at 09:17:27 PM
  • Daddy: LM is the most thankless and simultaneously the most selfless thing anyone can do in this space. Thats why people dont do it.
    Yesterday at 09:19:05 PM
  • Daddy: So... Im training more of them. Powerhouse Baseball is an example of that. There are more leagues coming.
