Are you in the league and able to access your team ok? Same with you Gridlock'd, both of you are listed as blank in the chat and neither team has a coach name next to them, so im not sure if you just haven't logged in since the league was reactivated or what.

Will take a lil bit to get my Yahoo commish shoes on as i figure out how things look from this side.

Yep, I’m in the league and have been assigned Ridiculous Wingspan so should be all good.

Was looking at everyones rosters and while Dutchy is ofc favourite as always, theres a dark horse this yr who has pick 3 in Cam who has been quietly plodding along adding top pick after top pick and i think if his team stays healthy it is pretty much up there with Dutchy's. Though the big proviso is if he stays healthy.

It was bad enough staring at 1 superteam wondering how on earth i was gonna beat him come finals (I didnt have to, tx Bugsy) but now i think theres 2 superteams (along with some other very good teams) and just staring at his team is making me want to not bother defending my title and pull the team down and go into a rebuild.

Only things stopping me are the fact that i do indeed have a title to at least try to defend and i already have 2 rebuilding teams in other leagues. Should've drafted a win now team in White Chocolate so id feel a lil less like i had to try and win this one again. :think:

With that said, gonna tentatively shop Lebron/ CP3, CJ, Russ, Randle for young players & picks and if i get any decent offers for a couple of them i will consider trading Giannis, AD, Beal etc...

Also shopping Okongwu & future first for win now guy/s to see if theres a way to improve my team for this yr for one last shot to defend my title.

See if theres any interest in either as im totally split which way to go...May just run it back and go into a rebuild 6 weeks into the season if its obv i cant compete lol.

The absolute disrespect shown to the Templars is palpable. A team that finished a stat away from a title last season, already relegated to an also ran is insulting but not unprecedented.
Manager Mogues has responded by saying... 'you can polish a turd'. Reporters were unsure what this response means but the Templar players will take it for inspiration.

There's a very long history of media not taking Templars seriously, i can't comment on why this is but there's no doubt they will again be a contender, regardless of what opposition coaches and bystanders are saying. I was merely scanning all the teams and was shocked that Cam was sporting 9 top 50 ranked players on yahoo this season, almost 20% of the top 50 preseason ranked players are on his team. Of course, Yahoo ranks doesnt neccesarily mean a whole lot and more importantly this is 9 cat and not a points league so he could well have 9 top 50 players and finish 3rd last again if its not the right mix of players or he gets a few injuries. I was just a bit stunned when i saw it tbh. Dutchy also has 9 top 50 players, both of them have 10 top 60 players. The two finalists from last yr in myself and your Templars have 4 top 50 players going by pre season rankings. This really sums up the beauty of H2H bb, anyone can win or lose on a given week ;)

I might be interested in Le Bron …..even if it’s just to inject some youth into my team.
Who am I kidding, I'm gonna run it back and if it looks like I won't make the play-offs then I'll throw in the towel but I gotta at least try to defend the title. Just gotta finish 6th again and then who knows...

My comment before last season:

I honestly wouldn’t overlook Cameron_K this season. His team is ready to make a leap after his rebuild. Injuries may curtail him early, but when he gets to full strength I reckon he and deeman87 will be hard to beat.
Gotta set your team to be able to win tho.
