I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with some of the outstanding FA's. There are still some very interesting players out there with solid PEBA track records, although most of them are a bit older now and can't be considered sure things. My guess is that some team with an injury will find a valuable piece available on the market, whether that happens in the near term or later in the year will be interesting to watch.

Neo-Tokyo's is also in the works. I agreed with my test group, I was not pleased with my first version for the Akira so I will be making adjustments for hopefully a better product before the next sim ;-D

That is excellent!

It has the familiarity of the Bears logo. The paws really look like they are pressing forward and putting the pressure on.

I'm not sure I understand all the letters and numbers. Could some one please explain those?

Ha Ha. I thought that was a 77. I also thought that was an abbreviation rather than the word "Champs".

Guess I need to make an appointment with the optometrist.

I'm looking forward to... The draft. I know we're still about a month out, but was curious if the board had discussed a date at all? The sooner one is set, the more likely I'll be able to deflect possible future competing bookings from mrs. Sandgnat.

And that will change, likely pushed back by a sim so each draft is on a Sunday (the 14th and 21st), but that is not official. The Board is currently sequestered in the PEBA/LRS Chapel in Asheville, NC. We'll send up white smoke when we've made our draft decisions. :-B

If it's black smoke please be sure to inform us that you're not on fire, I'd hate to throw a bucket of water over you unnecessarily :D
