Tron, Randy, KVV and Mr. Poosh go through some big questions around the league as we approach the season before getting into the draft. Just like last year, the scoring for the competition is as follows:

1 point for each regular season win (0.5 points for a tie)

Let us know what the loser should have to do for punishment this year. Enjoy!
