Voltaire 4,593 Posted May 9, 2018 ahh no worry either way, I didn't see the official rules That's Ok I posted them for consideration and got silence, then asked a second time and got one reply. I figure nobody gives a fock. But yeah, anybody that earned US citizenship qualifies. I think on the sports team category, Canadian teams in the NHL, NBA, and MLB should also qualify.

Voltaire 4,593 Posted May 9, 2018 You sniped me and then stayed up another hour. I'd much rather TBBOM send the pick to somebody else when he goes to bed. That didn't set too well. It was within your rights to grab Madison if you wanted him. You got jumped in the first round legitimately because you were slow but the second round thing was BS.

TBBOM knows that pick is fair game if I wanted it. Also since you pick either right after me or before depending on the round, I can gladly post yours with mine whenever you feel like you won't get your pick in before you sleep.
