2018 Fantasy Football

[BirraImperial]

I'm in. I don't post here much, but I will be checking my notifications for the draft...

[Demonbinder]

Let's start by confirming everyone's in for the Poly League. I'm in, plus returning champions Flatlander Fox (yay!). Sloww, Berz, ColdWizard/Thud, rah, and Ming have posted. That's 7. Demondbinder is interested; not in league last year.

Teams & Managers
1 Vicious Rabbits - -Jrabbit (commish) - back
2 Dallas Dwarf Tossers - Slowwhand - back
3 Omaha Steaks - Flatlander Fox - defending champs are back
4 Go4Pin - Berzerker - back
5 Nimrods - MGuth - probably out
6 B1tches B Crazy - Spaced Cowboy - need to contact
7 Thud - ColdWizard - back
8 South Ballers - BirraImperial - need to contact
9 Mingapulcos - Ming - back
10 DA Ferrets - rah - back

So we need to contact/confirm with Spaced Cowboy and BirraImperial. If he doesn't post, I'll check with mguth when I see him this Friday.

Once we lock down managers, we can get into the mechanics of scheduling.

FYI to all: I'm commish by default, but I'd be VERY open to someone else taking on that task. It's really only a commitment during the draft; the season kind of runs itself at this point. Love doing it, but I commish 2 slow draft leagues, and it adds up. Tends to cut into my billable hours, so I'd really love to see someone jump into that role.

Last year's draft started Aug 18 and finished Aug 31. First day of season was Thurs, Sept 7.
2018 first game is Thurs, Sept 6. Thus, the draft should start Thursday, August 17.

I am interested if you need someone to fill out the league, but if not, that's OK as I am already in three. We can talk about it Friday night.

Sounds good. We currently have 8, with Mguth and Spaced Cowboy yet to weigh in.

I sent a PM to Spaced today.

[rah]

Tick tick tick tick.

[-Jrabbit]

Mguth will decide soon.
No reply from Spaced yet.

Stay tuned.

[-Jrabbit]

Status update: We have 8 out of 10 players confirmed as returning.

-Mguth is out due to massive travel; Demonbinder will replace him.

-Spaced Cowboy is also OUT. Says he's in too many leagues. We need a 10th player to replace him.

Who wants in? Lori?

[Demonbinder]

Send me info or invite for Poly League so I can get started.

[-Jrabbit]

Invitation sent. Check your email.

[Berzerker]

do you want 10 or 12? I can ask at speakeasy and cfc

I sent jayhawk a message, but where's Chris and Walrus?

edit: do you want to email of baseball league managers? Gotta be 1-3 right there.

[-Jrabbit]

We're shooting for 10. Mguth and Spaced Cowboy are out; demonbinder is invited and in.

We need one more.

[onejayhawk]

I heard you needed a sacrificial lamb.

[Berzerker]

cool... when do we start drafting?

oh yeah, did Rabbit want someone else to commish or run the draft? I can co-commish and help

We'll have to drop Guth's team from the league to make room for the others.

[-Jrabbit]

I have dropped the Mguth and Spaced Cowboy teams from the Poly league.
Also sent an invite to Demonbinder for him to join.

Onejayhawk, welcome aboard!
Please be sure you're familiar with our draft process.
