Title: TBT - The Basketball Tournament featuring JO
Post by: EMAWesome on May 12, 2014, 02:28:23 PM
Anybody else heard about this thing?

http://www.thetournament.com/ (http://www.thetournament.com/)

Basically, anyone can sign up a team and if they get enough "Fans" (votes) that team is automatically qualified to play for the $500k prize.

JO is playing on team Rep Your City - http://www.thetournament.com/teams/rep-your-city (http://www.thetournament.com/teams/rep-your-city) and they are rated as the 7th most talented team in the field...

Anyway, gE'rs can help JO out by becoming a fan of their team...the 4 teams that have the most fans will have the ability to name their first round opponent, so we can give JO & crew essentially a bye into round 2... https://www.thetournament.com/f/536e59675bf1c382006674 (https://www.thetournament.com/f/536e59675bf1c382006674)

Other notable players that I've seen on rosters include Mario Little, Russell Robinson, Josh Selby, Smush Parker, Marshall Henderson, Basically the entire '09 Villanova Final 4 team, Hakim Warrick & others

Pretty cool deal, a team of ordinary joes could get matched up vs a team w/ College/NBA/Euro studs & take 'em down...

We should also have a discussion about GM'ing an all EMAW squad to enter into next years tourney...

Think about it, with the right recruitment, we could finally see a team with all of our favorite studs on the same floor  :love: :excited:

Pullen - $50k
Denis - $50k
Beasley - $75k
Walker - $50k
Dom - $25k
McGruder - $50k
Massey - $25k
Hoskins - $25k
Kelly - $50k
JO - $50k

We got $50K left over to pay our GM  :Woohoo:
