That is an awesome word, Ufez. I shall be watching from the sidelines, but you can count on me to insult StarFucker on a regular basis.

I am signed up but consider me the ultimate rookie as I am still learning.

Way to be bold, jason. To be honest with you, I don't know a whole lot of the MLS players right now either, but I'm trying to get back into it and thought this would facilitate that. Who else has signed up? There are two teams there that are unrecognizable by the names.

I'm in, 37 Push Ups.

Thank you. The only team I am familiar with is Kansas because they played a friendly with our local team who might end up being MLS in the next few years. Lets just say I am not picking any Kansas players. They were pretty aweful.

well once I manage to log in, they seem to be having some problems right now.

corpse, are you in the SpoFi Fantasy NBA league? I'm really stymied by those whose team names aren't apparaent via their screen names. Just curious.

and why, of all names, 37 push ups?

Ok, I'm in - Turnip Surprise. Fantastytabulous. I have no idea who any of the players are except Landon Donovan. Hmmm. can't do any worse than the other league though.

Allright you amateurs... Move over, I am going to sign up right now!

I'm in too, as big perv.

I'm almost there...they wouldn't let me be StarFucker, so i am StarFooker...

Okay, so how the hell does this work? Do we have a draft? Do i just create my team? ?!?!

I don't know about this whole BUYING trades thing... Are any of you guys going to be purchasing trades?

Yep, I was pathetically in there, as Academy of Lies. That was my team name for all my fantasy teams last year, I change it up every year. and why, of all names, 37 push ups? It's a Smog song.

Ok, I am in as hardtimesinwestpho. Are any of you guys going to be purchasing trades? I think I can lose just fine without spending any money...

I picked my team...you guys will hate me all season.
posted by StarFucker at 10:29 AM on March 25, 2003
I prefer it if nobody purchases trades, but I have no authority to enforce that (that I'm aware of). I know I have better things to spend my money on.

I doubt i will need to...

If I finish ahead of anyone, I will publically torture you with endless amounts of humiliation.

corpse, I'm going to be drunk, so drunk, at your wedding.
posted by yerfatma at 05:14 PM on March 25, 2003
corpse is getting married? How come I didn't get an invitation? Did any of the Fantasy Leaguers (yes, we are the Fantasy Leaguers, a gathering of Extraordinary Gentlemen ... err, ahem ...) get one? I am feeling left out.

I suppose it would have been more appropriate to mention I'm willing to dress sexy at his funeral (and yes, wear that skirt split up to here).
posted by yerfatma at 06:40 AM on March 26, 2003
3 of my friends have joined the MLS league so far... BABG, Bosiak Bashers and Mad Rrhea... I suppose that will be the top 4 at the end of the season, with me at the helm. Owen is going to Italy?!

Zulu Army all signed up and coming to kick your heads in beginning April 5th. Who my players are, who knows? Not me, that's for certain.
posted by squealy at 03:01 PM on March 26, 2003
Sweet, we've got 13 teams signed up. I was hoping for at least six. And this is all without a mention in the sidebar. The higher-ups have no love for domestic soccer. Oh, and just to let you all know, I sure as hell don't have time (or intentions) to do some sort of WorldCup-esque weekly update and trash talk threads. If anyone else wants to, fine by me, though.

What?! Who else is going to do it?! Where is worldcup?!

Out nicking hubcaps probably. ;-) Fuck where is raed, where is worldcup2002?
posted by squealy at 05:19 PM on March 26, 2003
I am here, waiting to taunt you guys. I've half a mind (really, I do) to join in, since some of you are gung-ho enough to play without knowing a thing about the players. But I'm going to take some down time from play once the EPL season is over. Also, down time from reporting and managing the league. Next year, it's StarFucker, the CEO. Or anyone else. I'm off to the peanut gallery.

OK, I'm in. Dangling Tits.

Why is the game feckin' broken? I can't do a damn thing but look at your stupid team names.

You can't see other teams till it starts i think...
posted by StarFucker at 09:41 PM on March 26, 2003
I can't fackin' see my team, let alone buy or do anything with them.
posted by worldcup2002 at 02:16 AM on March 27, 2003
?! Well, did you read the rules? I mean, its pretty straightforward... Did you click on buy/sell players?
posted by StarFucker at 08:31 AM on March 27, 2003
I clicked on every frookin' link in the left navbar. I'll got try it again today. SHeesh. This sucks. It's almost as wonderful as yahoo! Hahahahaha.

Nope. Still craps out: "The game you are trying to access is currently unavailable. The problem should be fixed shortly. Please try again later. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience." And don't call me "Shortly!"
posted by worldcup2002 at 09:47 AM on March 27, 2003
It worked for me when I first signed up, although I decided to wait to pick my team until I actually knew anything about the players outside of the US National Team or Dallas Burn.

I'm in. The Torn ACLs.
