So far, every team looks

So far, every team looks capable of winning. To our dismay, there haven't been too many picks that anyone has made thus far that we could really rip on. So far, everyone has a game plan, and they are doing well following it. I'm loving this draft! Watching the studs come off early, then looking for bargains in the later rounds...So far, so good.

Phoenix - Your team looks

Phoenix - Your team looks really good. Between the dominance of GSP and the potential of Wandy becoming a big time player in the light heavyweight division, plus the youth of Swick, Maynard and Carwin (who I love, and was hoping would be around much later in the draft), the base of your team is just what you would want. It's a good mix.

it's just that i don't have kimbo slice on my team...haha. but everytime it's my turn to pick i really don't know who to pick. i'm like, there's no more fighters!!!!! but right now, everyones team looks good.

Ya TBC, I'm really hatin Phoenix for takin Carwin. I think he is a big star in the making right up there with Cain. Wandie was huge too... King got Rua as a steal too...

13 UFC fighters who fought

13 UFC fighters who fought at last weekend's UFC Fight Night 14 were given medical suspensions by the Nevada State Athletic Commission and were deemed unable to perform for at least a month. Oddly enough, the 3 worst injuries (and longest suspensions) were suffered by guys who won their fights. Cain Velasquez (possible meniscus/ligament tear in left knee), Tim Credeur (right-knee injury) and Brad Blackburn (broken left thumb) will all be out until January.

EERS...so much for that first round draft pick.

Phoenix needs a heavyweight to finish off his roster. At what point do we have our impartial leader, Pramit, make the selection for him? We aren't in a huge rush yet, but there is a card coming up pretty quickly that we should be ready for...

Sorry it took me so long...

Sorry it took me so long... I just realized my sleeper I was going to pick had been picked up already! >.< I was planning to select Neil Wain and forgot that Eers got him earlier. Oh well, Eversen has the potential to shock an incredibly boring Kongo... although I think Kongo wins the fight just based on experience alone. Anyway, I have next pick all lined up assuming he doesnt get snatched within the next two choices (I doubt he will). So it will be quick - then are we on the last round?
