Being one of the newer GM's I don't know if I'd be asked to join the new league, so my decision might be a little biased, but there really isn't much wrong with the league as it is now. It's not like people are bored with the way thing currently are, which is usually the main reason for arestart.

Yeah, that's my one stipulation on a re-start too. CJ better pick higher than 22, or I quit.

It is only a few people, but it gets taken too far and gets really irritating. I have to say, whatever you're referring to, it's been way worse in BBS. At the beginning of this league, there was an unbelievable fight with Manas that went on for countless, countless pages, full of accusations and insults...and everyone moved on from it quite easily, because it was fun. There were also some pretty awesome fights with DJ. I know I got into it with him pretty often in the old BBS, but it hasn't changed anything. There's nothing new about these fights. The severity probably used to be even greater. Mark and I went at ScubaSteve until he quit or got fired. Today people just take cheap shots daily. That's because James is lame. But whatever tensions and fights we have here aren't anything new, and aren't going anywhere.

I would really look forward to a restart especially if it was a fantasy draft...when would this occur?

Martinez and I used to have massive fights too. It was never a big deal, it was just in fun. Now everyone is way too sensitive.

Before James posts, this needs to be said:
YOUR FUTURE IS NOT AS BRIGHT AS OURS WAS, SO DON'T USE THAT AS A REASON TO NOT LIKE THE RE-START.
Thank you.

Oh, I also want to say that we need a creation draft. You can't creating a playing field wherein one team has the 2000 Lakers. Just let everyone make their own team. That's the excitement.

Yup, no one will like set rosters except whoever gets the Lakers. People like having their favorite team, and they like creating something. No one wants to be discredited because of who they started with.

Agree, I think a creation draft is a necessity if we restart. Who wouldnt move over from this lg though? Again as I've stated previously I just have a problem with letting guys go unless it's an activity issue. The contract yr thing is actually pretty cool as it does add realism but is there a need to replace anyone here right now really?

I'd say Aig & Kevin would be the only two.

I doubt he doesn't let Kev back in. Kev's been in forever.

I'd say Aig & Kevin would be the only two. As far as activity goes, I don't think either guy belongs here. You look at the kind of guys we have at the top--the guys who wait on drafts, earn 3 RCs, push Spence for TC, count up the number of guys who send in bids--and you never see those guys doing a thing to keep the activity of this league up. Neither ever really posts, and they don't build good teams. I like Kev, and it disappoints me, but he doesn't seem to care about BBS. Other than that, I don't think anyone else doesn't deserve a spot here, though I really now believe Lumley shoudn't have his own team.

This league has been great, but there's a point where leagues peak and are just generally really exciting. Nothing has faded in this BBS as far as excitement, but the newness factor, the fresh start, I think, would regenerate a lot of competition that may be lacking right now (how many teams really have a chance to win these next three seasons?) I also think a lot of guys have something to prove, which makes the restart fun for me: Can James build a team without inheriting a lot of talent and without tanking? Is Kev this bad? For guys like Aar, Play, Skillz, it's a chance to build their own thing. Can Martinez build a winner? More like....How fast will Martinez demolish his franchise?

Maybe duce wants in? I'd give him one of the open spots for sure if he wanted it, but at the same time, I don't want him to be asked back so soon because I feel that so much of him leaving was to see if he'd be missed.

I'd be in favor for a restart but I have a few conditions in what I would personally like. Feedback is much appreciated.
1. Creation Draft
2. Spence posts his personal GM Rankings up in an overall form and with seeds. For example make 4 gm's number 1 seeds and place them in separate divisions, Number 2 seeds, etc.
3. With the overall GM ranking's the last GM ranked gets his choice of what pick he wants in the draft first, then the second to last ranked GM and so on.
4. I would personally like to start before 2000, maybe 1990 or 1995 because in 10 months we are back to another restart.

Well, apparently he was extremely hurt in multiple leagues by multiple things. Oh well. I still think it was completely weak to abandon the baseball league.

As for the divisional alignment, well, I guess you could separate Reilly, DJ, Dave, Hernando etc, but I don't think it needs to be played out through every team. As for #4, whatever, doesn't matter to me. And yeah, creation draft.
