I offered a trade and heard nothing for 3 weeks and cancelled it...LOL

Yeah, it is disappointing that nobody trades. I almost never veto a trade unless it's obviously one-sided (like the above), sometimes folks will sign up more than one team in a league and then feed one so you have to watch that too!

Has anyone from this board every got a fantasy league together. That would be pretty cool to do. I only do fantasy football and I am awful. I have finished 8-8-7 the past 3 years.

I usually set up leagues for all major sports (basketball, football, baseball, hockey) on Yahoo...Hockey and Basketball are harder to fill so I have one league for board members (and open to public if not filled) but baseball and football, I set up 2-3! Papa finally had his winning streak broken this year in baseball, football and basketball are always wide open!

hopefully it wasn't me you were trying to trade with.

i update my rosters about 2 weeks in advance because i kept forgetting to go daily and change them. i gave up on trying to go daily once i started getting thrashed in the league -- so i just activate those players who have games ahead of time so at least my team has a "chance."

i've been getting killed on my goalies -- but the only time anyone offered me a goalie (turco), they wanted my two best offensive producers.

raw offensive points are the only categories i win with any regularity, so i'd have just been trading one for the other anyway.

my centers are producing quite well actually, i've been surprised -- Chris Drury is the biggest shock to me so far!

You have solid defensemen that can score points though. I think it was you I was asking for Pronger...LOL, must have been 2 weeks not 3

i still just can't seem to get a couple of weeks where it all clicks and i rout another player -- the best i've been doing is just staying close enough for playoff contention by not coming out of weeks with a LOSING record.
