Maverick 791 Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) IT'S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN! Okay, there's a couple things we have to discuss as a league. First, just to reserve a time/date for the draft I went with Sun Aug 26 9:15pm EDT. It's about a month and a half in advance but if an owner already knows he can't make it to the draft, let me know so we can decide which slot will get the most owners there live. Next, you guys. Here is the list of last year's participants: 1. Maverick - 2. jackhammerslam - 3. seanbrock - 4. ODB - 5. Sarge - 6. BC - 7. Rivers2Gates - 8. Phailadelphia - 9. Mathias - 10. BLUE - Now, this year's league: 1. Maverick - Officially Returned 2. Spot Available 3. seanbrock - Officially Joined 4. Zack - Officially Joined 5. Sarge - Officially Returned 6. BC - Officially Returned 7. housemd - Officially Returned 8. Phailadelphia - Officially Returned 9. Mathias - Officially Returned 10. PD2010 - Verbal 11. BLUE - Officially Returned 12. G-Men (Reigning Champ) - Officially Returned PLEASE READ There's really not many rules you can break in fantasy football. However, failure to update your team is the one thing that really irks me i.e. - starting a player on BYE. If you don't want to play the waiver wire and pick up FAs as much as others, that's fine. DO NOT start a player though that is on a bye week or has been on IR the past three weeks. This not only effects the outcome of your game, but in consequently effects the whole league. First Offense is a warning, Second Offense - Removed from the league. As I have done since the league has been established, if this type of thing occurs I will remove the player out of the starting team and substitute the bench player projected to get the most points. This solution assures that the league always remains competitive. IIRC (and please, returning owners help me out with some of this stuff), everybody was pretty good with updating their team. However, not everybody is still an active member of these forums. BRICK, R8RNation, and ODB are all inactive members. Therefore, we have three open spots which I'll extend invitations out to Zack, housemd, and PD2010. Between new invites, minor issues, etc, keep an eye out for a PM containing important details I have to discuss with you personally. jackhammerslam is also an inactive member on the boards, but he's an active owner in the league and is always competitive. I'll leave his fate up to majority rule. Do we keep him aboard for the aforementioned positives, or kick him because he only shows his face around here once or twice a year? There's a few more things to discuss which I'll post tomorrow... Edited July 23, 2012 by Maverick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC 331 Posted July 10, 2012 I thought we had ten teams last year, but 12 is the way it should be so teams aren't stacked. I admittingly missed a roster set one week but literally couldn't set it that Saturday night, which never happens and won't again. I need to redeem last years' injury riddled season. Pretty sure I was a Peyton Manning victim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mathias 394 Posted July 10, 2012 So, uh, was I in a different league last year or was I kicked out for this season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick 791 Posted July 10, 2012 So, uh, was I in a different league last year or was I kicked out for this season? As long as you're not in JD's ESPN league you're welcome to join this season. I don't remember kicking you out in the past seasons...should I? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick 791 Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Have you sent the invitations? Yes, I've begun sending invites out. You should have received one containing registration info. I updated the OP with the current owners. If the Questionables/Probables all sign up, the league is full. That might not happen so feel free to post if you'd like to participate in the league and you'll be put on the Waiting List respectively.. BC, you were right. We did only have ten teams last year. I miscounted. Edited July 10, 2012 by Maverick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mathias 394 Posted July 11, 2012 2. [/size]jackhammerslam - Officially Returned, Should he stay? Nope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC 331 Posted July 12, 2012 JHS being in our league doesn't really make sense, but I'd just wait and see if we have an overflowing amount of people who want to jump in, and then kick him and let a regular join. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge+ 3,436 Posted July 16, 2012 Yea... kinda awkward for JHS to play in our league every year even though he doesn't come here anymore. I'd let someone else take his spot, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zack_of_Steel+ 3,014 Posted July 17, 2012 Yea... kinda awkward for JHS to play in our league every year even though he doesn't come here anymore. I'd let someone else take his spot, IMO. I agree with Sarge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
housemd 338 Posted July 18, 2012 I think it would be unfair for others who wanted to join..I think we should let someone take his spot..Ngata Chance wanted in,so we have an instant replacement for JHS.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BC 331 Posted July 21, 2012 So I never received any info to join this league. I was going to remind commish Mav that you wanted in but figured we would wait and see if you wanted in badly enough that you would post again. Since you seem pretty serious about it, I think you should be first in line to take JHS' spot if Mav had nobody else lined up Pretty stoked about having a solid 12 teamer of hungry managers rather than barely being able to scrap 10 teams together last year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick 791 Posted July 23, 2012 It's official - JHS will be kicked from the league. PD2010 will replace him. For the record, BC was right on why I didn't send you info just yet. I'll send a PM containing the registration details after I finish this post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got word a couple days ago that you still frequent the boards hence the reason you received an invite back. Glad to see you registered. Take the substitutions for exiting owners and new owners with a grain of salt in the original post - a lot changed since then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
