Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends! But seriously it is that time again so get your sh*t talking hats back on and get ready for what should be an exciting NFL fantasy season. As always all newcomers are welcome, and I hope to see last years people as returnees. Here is the invite link:

or
USE THIS LINK TO JOIN LEAGUE
PLEASE USE THE LINK(S) TO JOIN, EMAIL INVITE ONLY SENT OUT TO PAST PARTICIPANTS.

Before we get into it further I want to put in a side note about the plaque. It still exists I assure you, and am very sorry to last years winner for not getting it to them. However, it has become somewhat of a hot issue between my wife and I. It is kind of a long story but in short she never wanted me to get it, and shipping it to the first years winner did not go over so well. So when I brought it up this year it blew up in my face. It also coincided with out child being born so it was the last in the list of things to do. Anyhow, things have cooled down and I am going to put forth an effort to get it out before the beginning of the season.

With that aside, I'd like to readdress last years draft debacle. I assure you all this will not happen again, right now it is set to Sep 9th, 7:30PM. This is a day before the season starts. We can change it according to peoples schedules, but to play it safe, that is where it stands now.

Now onto the league part of things. This year, do we want to make it the beginning of a keeper league? If so let's start talking about how many keepers and what type of draft we want to do. Either way we go we also need to address point system and rules. I think there was an issue with the waiver last year, so let's come to a consensus on that. I tend to over think the point system so this year I'm down to go straight Yahoo defaults, but I'll go with whatever the majority decides. Can't think of anything else at the moment, except the obvious reminder that this is for fun, a complete fantasy, where randomness can sometimes play as much a role as intelligent choices. Some good old fashioned ribbing are in order. Crewed intended insults or bad attitudes are not welcome. Also, you can help to remind your fellow members about the league and direct them to this thread, we always seem to have some late stragglers and or an odd amount of people so the earlier we get a feel for how many people we have the better. Thank you all, and GO HAWKS.

I, for one, do not need a plaque. I hate to think that it might be a sore spot between you and your wife. We are here for the fun of it, it's free, and the right to brag is good enough for me. Hopefully, I'll see everyone there on draft day this year. Take care.

I have confirmed my spot in the league, if you'll still have me.

Thank you, Mr. Commissioner, for setting this up for us to have a good time in and pull our hair out screaming over the wrong guy getting the TD.  My kids enjoy the shows.  Both the ball game and their father's reactions.  Wink

I am mildly opposed to the keeper league idea, but my opinion is just that: Mild.

I liked the points settings we had last season.  I also like the three pickups per week rule.

With the first week of pre season underway I thought to check some setting for our league, and was informed of the keeper settings. We do not have to do this, but if everyone who is playing this year are roll overs from last season we may want to discuss our options. Also this is a reminder to those who have yet join, emails have been sent out and the above links work as well. Also please help remind your fellow members if you know someone who has yet to confirm their spot.

Yes, please I do not need the Plaque sent to me or engraved if it is an issue, that's fine, much prefer peace in the household...

I'd suggest keeping it a redraft league or go full blown Dynasty .. keeper leagues are so in between and meh.

Here's two links of two of my Dynasty Leagues:

This one is a 16-Teamer:

This one is a 12-Team:

Feel free to look around, MFL site is not a free hosting site, but there are a ton of commissioner options .. Dynasty Leagues are so much fun :)

We have 7 people from last who have yet to respond to both email invites I've sent out. I read somewhere that Jody has left the site, so that accounts for him. I'm hoping anyone who is currently in that knows the other players could help remind them, I don't want to spam email invites. Rob, is you wife planning on playing again this year? If so remind her to sign up please.

'There is not room in this league if all teams from last year return. If you were invited to take over an existing team, please click the link in the email you received to join the league. To create a brand new team, get the commissioner to increase the maximum number of teams, or remove teams that will not be returning."

So I guess I need to wait to see if you have anyone who is not returning for sure, and then remove them before I can join.

To make it even we need just one more team. We currently have 6 people from last year who have not rejoined. Anyone know where the people behind the team(s); The Fighting Clems, Mole in the Machine, NYG#1, or Vinny Currying? They were a heavy presence last year, and I would hate for any of them to miss out on this year especially if they are still interested.

Also the we should start discussing draft day/times. I am hoping for Sunday or Monday in the evening (pacific time). That leaves the 30th(sun),31st(mon), 6th(sun), and 7th(mon) as options. I can do other days as well, but the time draws nearer so we should commit soon. I am also fine with drafting with the current time set albeit that may be a bit late for anyone on the east coast or in the midwest.

ProgDay is the weekend of the 6th so I'd rather you avoid that or I'll be autopicking.

Probably not, but she mainly played last year so that we could have an even number.

Any of the proposed draft dates works for me. Sometime in the evening after 6PM EST works best for me.
