The above post is the first round from the Kfunk52 Draft season XXVII. Troy Murphy going in the first round is an eye opener, but I think his defense was 90 at the time.

It’s also cool to see longtallbrad in the draft from 2009.

I like the "Explain Yourself" thread.

I miss scud.

Also it's hard to say who was more of a jerk, chester_o or monkee.

I don’t understand why someone would take Moses over Wilt.

I'd say it's a toss up

1) Moses was THE center in the cookie cutter teams at the time. People hadn't caught on to the fact that 66-67 Wilt was the best player season in the game yet.

2) It was banditone. Dude was ... ummm ... unconventional at best.

3) I'm pretty sure I won that season, upsetting uva in the finals with my Oscar-Ginobili-VC team

Those were the days. Surprising that Jakotay was not in that league. Not many of us still here.

When I first started playing WIS basketball a lot of people were using Wilt in open leagues, but it was usually not 66/67.

Yeah, people were obsessed with Wiltzilla (50ppg Wilt), or budget 70-71 version.

Hey guys sorry about being AWOL. I had a pressing family situation and was displaced from my home with no notice. I have landed in a good place but was pretty shook up for a few weeks. I will let you know when I am ready to participate in the league again. I would appreciate any positive thoughts and prayers headed my way. Thanks and GL in the draft.

Ouch! I hope everything get better for you and your family. You will always be welcome back when you’re ready to return.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, bud.

So sorry to hear about this, brother. I've been wondering what was going on with you. Thoughts and prayers are activated. Stay close (if you desire) and keep us posted. You are cared about.

I still need division drafts from three people.
