The New Guys

As co-commissioner Alvin and C-Lucas walk out the door, we welcome two new owners: Felipe and Matt! Taking over the reins for two successful franchises, our two new newbies are no fantasy amateurs. Felipe has been playing fantasy football over at our Maize and Blue football league for years, and is such a forward thinking owner that he even has a dedicated email for his fantasy empire. He’s a pure professional folks! And Matt, Oliver’s old co-worker and Kevin Garnett fan, has been hearing rumors about SlamNation for years and will finally get his shot at taking the rest of us down after bouncing around the non-SlamNation fantasy gutter for years. Welcome to our little league gentlemen, and good luck to you both!

The dispersal draft went like this, with the first pick getting Anthony Davis, and then three successive follow up picks to the number two slot. So the order for the first six picks was 1-2-2-2-1-1. After that the remaining three rounds went in 2-1-2-1-2-1 fashion. This unorthodox arrangement was made to balance out the fantasy gawd that is The Brow, and if you’ll recall we had to do a similar stacking to offset the LeBron James dispersal draft in for the 2012 season.

Thanks to a quick and easy dispersal draft, our new teams look like this:

• Team Cameltoe (Felipe): Anthony Davis, Carmelo Anthony, Brook Lopez, Elfrid Payton, Mike Conley, Derrick Rose
• Sager’s Suits & Ties (Matt): Draymond Green, Blake Griffin, Victor Oladipo, Bradley Beal, Enes Kanter, Rodney Hood.

And for the first time, not a single non-keeper was selected, as these teams were completely constructed from the remnants of the Pogiboys and Silent Crows franchises. Fascinating!
