2002 SFL Team Draft- A Look Back
We began a discussion on Discord earlier today about the original team draft. I told folks I would do some sort of article tonight about how team?s and owners fared as we go into this season with GM jos on the line via the Hot Seat. (No job are truly on the line as any active GM will not be removed from the league, they simply have a good possibility of switching teams.)
