HAPPY FIRST WEEK AND HERE'S TO THE LATE BLOOMERS!

Give Me Some Honey

It seems like Camila might have been practicing removing honey off of Johnny's bod... Sure glad she is on my team, and TJ seems to like her too.

Sexy and I know it

Allow me to introduce myself (Nicole), and more importantly my team:

"I got a passion in my pants and I ain't afraid to show it, show it, show it, show it... I'm sexy and I know it."

Or you can call us passion in our pants for short. Either way, we're sexy and we know it.

CARA MARIA - DUSTIN - LEORY - MARK - PAULA

A little late with my team name

It took me a little time to come up with my team name, but I am going with "Nobody puts Jasmine in a corner....or a cage...under 50ft of hay."

Great start of the season last night. Whoever got Sarah or Camilla got a nice preview of some big points in future episodes.

Good luck everyone!

Tonight's the night!

We're under 2 hours away from our east coast viewing.  Morgan, Hilary and I are ready to tally but if any of you feel like you would like your own score sheet, let us know because Hilary made a dynamite spreadsheet.
Allllso, where are all the teams at?  Can I get a holla?

I am channeling my inner Coach Taylor on this one - these kids are a hot mess and need some serious help and guidance. Therefor, I am naming my team the Dillon Panthers. Clear Eyes, Full Hearts... Team Members: CT, Robin, Jasmine, Mandi, and Dustin

REDRUM

Riss Piss is excited about this! I believe my team: Abram, Aneesa, Camila, Diem, and Leroy are going to make me proud. Put REDRUM down on the books as my team and let's let the name calling begin!

Welcome to your worst nightmare, known as team "Boom. Bazooka Joe."
Let's hope Paula, Abram, Tyrie, Heather, and Ty bring it tonight.  Holla!


Backpacks

Welcome to hell! I will be carrying you there as the "Custom-Made Johnny Bananas Backpacks"

Alright competitors!  Here is my info

Name: We Found Love in a Hopeless Place

Team Members:  CT, Mandi, Nate, Ty, and Wes

Draft Rules

I just got a message from TJ on my new T-Mobile Sidkick Driod Plus Fantastic. "Get a good dinner in and put on your PJ's. The draft starts at 8/9/10/11 and will happen on the interweb." My guess is its a draft of some sort. Except we are in speedos swimming in ice water to find the players we want then we have to swim 100m freestyle and pass the player card to our team mate who climbs a rope and rings a bell.

Draft/team rules. 1.We have 10 teams for 26 cast members so we are going to allow cast members to be on multiple teams. 2. Each team will draft 5 players. 3. Each cast member can be drafted twice but not by the same team. (Ie CT will be drafted twice but not by the same team). 4. Draft order will be set in random order and be snake fashion. ( In round 1Team1 picks first, Team2 picks second.... Team 10 picks tenth. Then for round 2 Team10 picks first Team9 picks second .... Team1 picks tenth. And the pattern repeats in round 3 and 4 and 5) 5. If and when a player is kicked of the show, the team can pick from the 2 left players from the draft or use the show replacement. However, scoring for any new addition to the team will not start until the next week. Hey! you are getting a ton of points for the "kicked off" so relax. Teej hates whiners!

So remember, there are 2 of everyone to be drafted. (except TJ, but my head would explode with excitement if that were true so its a good thing). There are no requirements for # of guys/girls or drafting "exes" pairs. It's a free for all on who you want as long as they are available and not already on your team. Scoring is on the below. The most points at the end of the year will win a lot of money but not as much as you would think for a show people have fantasy leagues for. And each week the team with the highest point total will win prizes like: Beats by Dr Dre DJ headphones (even though we aren't DJ's), TMobile Sidekicks (we have Iphones and Verizon thanks) and WiiFit game packs (even though we have PS3's and xBox's).

If every one can gchat that will speed things up but we can do an email chain if some people don't have gchat or are being dicks about it. :) I will do my best to send out an update of who is available through the email chain as we draft but if you have your own list you check off from that would be great. I don't know how many of you have played Fantasy football but these things can drag on. We aren't playing for money so lets try to be semi snappy about the picks. Remember TJ was in a coma only 12 short months ago and he hates lolligagers. Plus we all win if CT rips Wes in half, even if he's not on your team! If you can't make the draft, make a quick list of cast rankings and get it to me or Les through email. When it is your pick we will select the highest ranked player available.

We can iron out scoring later but in general we will use the rules below and Les and I will be final judge. I am a former winner of this type of competition so I'm qualified (Still waiting for my $150 in winnings from 2005 Ben Leimbach!) and Leslie would never disappoint TJ by favoring someone or herself. TJ hates cheaters. Sweet Jesus, I hope I kill it tonight!

Draft

Sign in to your gmail accounts at 8 PM PST/9 PM MST/11 PM EST and have your team names and list of draft picks ready!  Also, you should all be able to post on this baby so I look forward to many insightful discussions in the future...

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
