Just join now, and rebuild the team, that was when we get to the 1990s, you will have lots of good draft picks going into those drafts. Do it!

Most of those guys are in the league now anyways. You'll just need to join the tank for Alaa campaign.

I would love to be but after thought I don't trust myself to faithfully manage my team. I just have too much going on...work is crazy, lots of kids and took wife to ER last night cause she couldn't breathe (bronchitis).

How many hrs per week does it demand?

I would say ten minutes a day is a fair amount of time. You can spend more then that checking out all the rosters and searching out trades but ten minutes would suffice to check your messages and set your line up at minimum. If you could it would be awesome, and it really is a lot of fun, although at some times frustrating(kinda like golf).

Sorry to hear, hope all works out!

And yeah like lukeyrid said, 15 minutes probably. And sometimes even less. If you are in a rebuilding stage, all I really need for you to do is post a depth chart, and then you can basically sit on the team for a few weeks as the season goes buy. It's really when it comes to the offense (draft / FA), you might have to put in a few extra minutes to draft and sign guys. But it's still a pretty easy process.

How are the Yugo players going to be dealt with Petrovic (or Vlade Divac, Zoran Savic, etc) already owed by the blazers (@ real madrid in 88 came over in 89) or the Lithuanian, I mean CCCP, players (Sabas, Kurtinaitis and Marčiulionis).

Just dump em in a draft most likely.
