anyone got any hot tips for fantasy basketball this year





















tdbbl thread

guys, aparently i need to own up to being irresponsible, but i will ask for some grace from the rest of the league

after my okur trade went through, i checked off my keepers, had them all selected. for some reason or another, i forgot to hit submit, and i never officially sent my keepers

rmcc selects my keepers for me and picks jermaine oneal, even after i gave up a pick not a couple of days earlier for okur

basically, im asking if anyone would object to me petitioning to get this changed. everyone knew who i was keeping, it was posted in a previous thread

it was an honest mistake, i really thought i had it picked. i left for the game on thursday and had no internet access until sunday morning. thoughts?

i sent out no less than 3 emails warning of the deadline and saying if you don't select your keepers i will select them for you.

i strongly oppose going back and changing someones keepers after i set the hard deadline. it sets a horrible precedent. what will happen next time when i set a rule in stone and someone breaks it then wants it to be overruled? they are gonna say "you did it for ron".

its about time people take responsibility for their own actions. if you think you hit SUBMIT, you better go back and check and be damn sure you hit submit.

you are putting the league in a bad situation when you ask them change the rules due to a lack of responsibility on your part. no one wants to come out and be the bad guy, so you shouldn't even be putting everyone in this situation in the first place, imo.

saying that, if no one objects, i will make the change.

i had all the boxes checked. i'm really confused now. I had checked early last week and never changed them.

ETA: And i said in our convo that I would keep Kidd, but that he would probably have the best chance of slipping down to my 1st draft pick.

i don't have a problem, but i know where you're coming from. i think you should let cwill and knat decide since they are drafting tonight.
