Obvious to whom? It sure doesn't read that way to me, unwashed rabble that I am.

Does anyone know the terms of the deal between TSN and Strat? I imagine there's some sort of contract or TSN would have bailed on Strat when it bowed out of the rest of the fantasy industry.

I guess all I'm saying is, if there's a contract, and if you don't intend to renew it, well, I'd imagine the game would be run sort of ... the way TSN runs it.

Please, I'd love for Bernie to tell me I'm being unfair, or speculating too much. Actually, I'd love it if he'd just answer the first sentence of this post.

I can just imagine how much activity there would be if ESPN had their weight behind SOM Online. You know what I mean?

You're reading way too much into it man. Let it go.

Unwashed Rabble!!! Angry Mob!!. Geez, those would make perfect team names, considering how truly awful my teams have been lately. I think I
will use Unwashed Rabble for my next team. Thanks, guys!! Hey maybe I can use Angry Mob for my manager name. It would fit.

Don't forget Bite Me.

You could have a monster theme league:

Bite Me's-vampires
Angry Mob-Frankensteins
Unwashed Rabble- zombies
Ghosts- Arod is star player(disappears in big games)

My idea of a monster theme league would be to use Heads of State (past and present). Then throw in a bunch of international financiers and toss in a few egregious CEO's. Real life monsters are much scarier.

The above-mentioned league would indeed be terrifying!

We would have the virtue, however, of an enormous -and growing by the minute -player pool.

So my team could be, for example:

Enron's Off Balance Sheet Risk, with of course Mr. Koslowski as Team Manager. He might spend 150M of the 200M on himself!!!
