Before they were giants league.* DEAD* Topic

Thanks to vancem, I've revised my original idea. A height oriented theme league. Each owner must draft at least 3 players who are 6' tall or under, and the rest of your team is filled by players with a MAXIMUM height of 6'7".

Standard $42 million cap. No waiver wire. Rookies ok.

Anyone interested?

Not really interested, unnecessarily complex and limiting...its a lot of legwork on the user's end. Allowing WW undermines your concept. I just think under this concept you'd see a lot of the same teams/kind of teams.

Good point colonels. No waiver wire then.

Complexity shouldnt be an issue though. Just a matter of looking at heights on profiles when searching. I understand the point about limiting, but that is the point, limits based on heights, which would be necessary for the theme idea. I think there are more 6 ft and under and 7 ft or over than you think there are though.

Anyways, I appreciate the feedback colonels19. I'm just trying to find somethine new and different I havent seen here yet.

Anyone else?

How about this idea. You must have 3 players 6' or under and all the rest of your guys must be 6'7'' or under. Barkley is banned.

I'd do that vancem. Maybe we could call it "Before they were giants".

What about the rest of you? Anyone up for a HEIGHT themed league?

what's the point?... small guy lineup, that's it? potatoes but no meat. needs some seasoning somewhere i think.

here's my problem - 24 x Unseld/Rodman +++

dont want to be a downer but when I looked at the specs here's what I thought:

Unseld
Rodman
SF under 6'7" Paul Pierce?
SG under 6'7" Clyde Drexler?
Mike Adams? Mark Price?

back up Muggsy Bogues; scrub earl boykins

Im pretty good at this stuff but Im sure most everyone else would get there sooner or later

How about a limit of 2 players at either 6'8'' or 6'9''. That opens up the Center, Power Forward, and Small Forward positions to a lot more players.

Then go with only 2 players ( more if you like) at 6'0'' and under.

All other players must be at 6"7'' or less. And we could allow for Barkley as most owners would be using Rodman anyway.

Just having some fun until ... BOWIS finally fills.

OK, nevermind. Guess it was a stupid idea. I'll try to think up something else.
