[sj41]

I want the Mavs.

GT: STICKY WAFFLES

[sj41]

Signed up and I'm playing a game right now.

[doubledown]

So, is everyone in yet?

[thatstoobad]

one more person needs to join.

[seebelow]

I'll play as the Hornets if you still need one more person.

[doubledown]

Now are we set? Everyone sign in? Let's start this league finally.

[gomer1andonly]

Just sent the info to seebelow, once he joins up or anyone else for that matter then I can generate the schedule.

[gomer1andonly]

League is up, schedule is in the OP, good luck everyone.

[doubledown]

Wow, Shaq VS Kobe in Week 1.....I'm ready to put a little shaq-fu on.

Good times for me are usually after 3:30 ET, as the best being between 3:30-5:30ET

[sj41]

Rockets at Mavericks

Alright Gomer V1, I've got you in week 1. I'm not able to get to the ESPN league homepage, since I changed gamertags recently and I'm not sure if I can change XBL accounts on that site.

I can play on Friday, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to play before that.

[zewone]

Thats cool for me. PM me or hit me up on AIM when you want to play.

Ok sounds good....I usually get home from work around then. I'll prepare to get beat ;) Haven't played too much.....but no excuses.

Not sure if I still have AIM....I use the MS one that let's me know when my XBOX Friends are online. I think my AIM might be DJ11Doubledown

[his_dudeness20]

We should probably post our AIM screen names so that we can contact each other easily. Mine is hisdudenessrg

Just PM me when you're available Friday and I should be here. Hope we get this game in unlike in the original NHL2k5 league.

Bump as two games were played....

Lakers at Heat (Heat winning...Kazaam)
Knicks at Hornets (Knicks winning)

[thatstoobad]

Knicks at Hornets (Knicks winning)

how did you score 99 points in a game that short? that's kind of impressive.

i'm intimidated. sort of, at least.

Because no one on the goddamn Lakers can make a 3 pointer. Ahh! I gave up the ball so many times because of that but I really needed to try and hit them. :D Also I suck and have only played the game once before playing him.

[doubledown]

I have Shaq-Fu....he can put up 99 points alone. Yeah, zewone did take a LOT of 3-pointers also....

Wow, glad the intimidation worked ;)

Hopefully these games get played quickly.

Also, how quickly are we going to play these games? I think it should be at least 1 a week, and if not....possibly advance the game if no one plays or makes an attempt

[gomer1andonly]

To everyone who hasn't yet, get your week 1 games done folks.

[SteveMcQ]

Sent AJ iAlac (Spurs) a PM and he hasn't responded yet. This sucks. I want to get this league going.

[doubledown]

I see someone got 100 points....damn you to my 99. I tried to get 101 ;)

Ok, last day to play....are we going to advance the week if no one plays their game today?

[thatstoobad]

i guess if no one plays we should probably advance the schedule, though it kind of sucks to do so.

if possible, could gomer1andonly please add the CAG user names to the list of teams and owners? i think it makes more sense to PM someone on these boards, but some of the XBL names are unfamiliar so i wouldn't know who to PM. thanks.

[doubledown]

Is it possible to kick someone out and have someone replace him if some people refuse to play?

[doubledown]

BUMP....technically week is over. PLAY YOUR GAMES PEOPLE. I hate leagues that go nowhere. I have yet to finish one yet...NFL, NHL now NBA....

[maxflight]

perhaps we should start a league for the people who DID play their games, and make it smaller I guess.

[doubledown]

Yeah, I think 8 people played for sure....

We could make it an 8 or 10 person league....

[SteveMcQ]

Just heard from my opponent the other day. We should be playing today or by the weekend at the latest. It was just a very busy week for me. League admin's call though on what he wants to do.

[Pratt75]

If you have a spot, I'm interested in joing your league. I will play my games. Thanks

[AJA iALAC]

For the record, I started looking for my opponent last weekend. I caught him once and sent a ready to play but he left shortly after. I believe I sent him a msg through espn msg'er as well, but never received a reply.

I finally found time in my sched. Wed to check the league site and got in contact. I attmpted to make arrangements to play either Thur or Fri. We were trying to play today, but I'm not sure if he showed up or not since there was a bit of miscommnunication.

it would probably be more effective to PM on CAG, since you have the option to receive an email everytime you receive a CAG PM, but on the ESPN site i have yet to receive an email about a PM. plus, i would imagine more people check this site regularly than the ESPN site.

[AJA iALAC]

My first msg to him was through the online desk msg'er in-game. If that was what you were commenting on.

But otherwise, I've only been using ESPN B/C thats where he intitially got a hold of me.

But yes you are right.

[SteveMcQ]

Yeah, Aj. No problem. This one's on me. It was just a very busy week for me and I wasn't home as much. I was on around 4pm EST playing a league game with Ultimate Matt X then had to head out after that. I hope you didn't have to wait around. Really sorry about that. I'd like to confirm this Saturday, but I'm just all over the place tomorrow. Sunday's the likeliest bet, but if I can log on tomorrow afternoon (maybe an hour or two before noon your time) then I will. Not a guarantee though.

League admin, do what you have to do. Again, just a very busy week for me. Thanks.

[AJA iALAC]

No worries. I stuck around for a bit and played a couple Live games just in case you showed up.

I'll get on 10 am my time and hopefully we can shore this up. But if not today, we should set a definite time tomorrow. Any time after 9 AM PST would be good for me.

Also, I just wanna apologize for my tone in my other posts if I came off like a jerk. It was just upsetting to check the thread out and see that I was being 'voted off the island' when I made several attempts at playing my game.

I hate people waiting on me and I try to not make that happen - so again, sorry everybody.

[gomer1andonly]

Ok, everyone played their games but GojTron and His Dudeness 20, have you two even tried getting a hold of each other. I'd rather determine a winner and move on than wait forever.

[SteveMcQ]

Not the case at all. Good game by the way. I hope the last game gets played soon.
