OK. Here's a game that people can play if they want where people can pretend to be the GM of a team, and we can make trades and stuff as if it's the offseason (no vegas expansion trades until we get closer to the expansion draft, though you may talk about those trades). You may ask for a team, and i will give you that team if it isn't already taken. My favourite teams are the Rangers and Islanders tied, so i'll be the Islanders. Each person may only be the GM of one team.
Here is the list of GMs (i will update it when someone claims a team):

Honestly I've lived in canada my entire life and in all my french courses in Alberta/BC I can only ask for a red pen in french and nothing else. So to see the guys who can go between English and french is inpressive and doesnt deserve fo be chirped even if the english is a little rough.


I learned French in the maritimes, but can't recall much of it. I can usually get enough from it in written form to understand the gist of it, but conversationally, not a chance.

Puis-je emprenter votre stylo rouge, sil vous plais? - Off the top of my head.
Can I borrow your red pen, if you like? - Google Translate
Puis-je emprunter votre stylo rouge, si vous le souhaitez? - Reverse Google Translate back into French.

I don't know what souhaitez is (apparently it's "want"?) and I spelled emprunter wrong.


red pen is also crayon rouge

If you're not allowed to make contact with other players I have much more respect for the guys like Curry who can drain 3's. Rather than Lebron just walking in untouched and if he does well then its a defensive foul

NFL 100%. I'm in Canada and cant believe people actually watch the CFL over the NFL. The NFL is probably if not the best professional league next to the NHL

NCAA is a nice changeup from the NFL. Less disagreement between the league and the players other than the academic side

If someone held a gun to my head and said pick one, I take the NBA every time. If asked if I like either, not really. I couldn't care less about the NFL lol. College football = a million times better
