Calvin “Megatron” Johnson is set to hit the IPO Pipeline on OneSeason. He was sitting number 5, and has passed Brandon Roy and Ray Allen like they were NFL Defensive backs. There is a good amount of excitement in the OSN forums about MEGA. What do you think? Do you want to own some of this genetic freak? 6″ 5″ 240 pound wide reciever who is a fantasy stud. He plays for the worst team in the history of the NFL. The 0-16 Detroit Lions. This will be an interesting one to watch.

The Secret is out! OSN Members are using a new technique to make the IPO process easier for the entire OneSeason Nation. Now the entire community is invited to be part of this great service. OSN’s own (and OSNTV writer and correspondant) PDXPup has been notifying people of IPOs FREE using twitter AND texting to everyone the ANSWER to the IPO Question! It’s easy to sign up. Just go to OSN’s Twitter Page and follow OSN. That’s it. You’re done! Make sure your phone number and carrier is entered into your Twitter control panel, and make sure text notifications from OSN are turned on as well. PDX has state of the art IPO Alerts, and notifies the world, the second the IPO comes out with the answer to the question! You don’t need to do anything but request your shares! Another free fun service brought to you by OSN! Props to PDX for providing this service for everyone!

As you can see by the graph here (prvided by OneSeasonAlerts.com’s desktop tool), Ryan Braun had a VERY strong showing today on his debut into the OneSeason trading community. you can see where he spiked early on as 2 big dogs (One confirmed as The OneSeason community, and AllSportsTalkRadio.com personality “Sdog”) scooped up 50+ shares apiece. Braun is a flat out stud, who we all should know now, won the rookie of the year 2 years ago, and has a cult-like following in that area of the US.

There question now begs….will Griffey Jr. or Malkin be the next IPO? Malkin has teased us with being the 4th hockey SOI to hit OneSeason, only to be pushed back by traders in favor for more popular players traders voted up past Malkin.

I can think of one big dog who…well I can think of two big dogs who are absolutely stoked about Ken Griffey Jr coming to OneSeason! Bullpup, and DJ Burdick. There has been a lot of talk in the forums about people super excited for the prospects of Ken Griffey Jr. being released as an IPO. Will they back up that excitement by capturing large shares of Griffey when he hits the market? Time will tell!

Week 3 of “Beat the Bacon” is set to begin. This has been, hands down, the most popular game played so far in the OneSeason Universe.

For the third time in their History (Danny Manning ‘88, Michael Olowokandi ‘98) The LA Clippers have landed the number 1 pick in the NBA Draft. They had a 17.7% chance of landing the number 1 pick. They will take Blake Griffin. Here is how the rest of the lottery shook out. How do you feel about where YOUR team landed? Sacramento had the best odds (25%) of getting the number 1 pick, but they fell to 4th.

Memphis Grizzlies #2

Oklahoma City Thunder (gag, GFYS Thunder Owners) #3

Sacramento Kings #4

Washington Wizards #5

Minnesota Timberwolves #6

Golden State Warriors #7

New York Knicks #8

Toronto Raptors #9

Milwaukee Bucks #10

New Jersey Nets #11

Charlotte Bobcats #12

Indiana Pacers #13

Phoenix Suns #14

Zimmerman went 0-3 today with 2 walks and 1 run scored. His team won. One of the walks was intentional. OSN tracked this hit streak from the beginning. Thanks Durshar! It was a great ride for this great player who just recently signed a huge contract extension with the Nationals. Durshar also let OSN know that ZImmerman is only the 42nd player ever to hit in 30 straight games in the same season. Any up for sending Zimmerman up the IPO request list? Here is the button to vote if you choose!

Please keep in mind making your own IPO Alert, and/or desktop application IPO Alerts will always be faster than a text alert. Also keep in mind, when these folks text you, it is simply an email to your phone. The speed of the text has a lot to do with things that the people providing this service to you can’t control. (i.e. the speed of your phone carrier’s network.) Remember! The fastest IPO Alert is your own homemade one, or a free desktop alert you can download from multiple places!
