Fantasy Football + Info

[JLevinson]

I also prefer Sundays or weeknights. Saturday nights are super tough to pull off.

 

[Stalker]

Could we possibly shorten the bench roster by 2?

 

[John Doe]

I quit my job. So, any day works for me. As long as I have beer, it makes me choose better.

Could we possibly shorten the bench roster by 2?

I shortened it by one to 6.

That lets you have a backup QB, RB, WR, another RB or WR, TE and Defense. I like that setup, personally.

The reason there are slim pickings on the waiver wire is because of the size of the league. 14 is a lot for a fantasy league. But I think we should be able to draft/sign backups and hang on to them. If anything, it just increases the importance of choosing people on your roster wisely.

 

[DBrunkGXW]

In case it wasn't CLEAR.

There is no set date. I'm asking for suggestions.

Yes, I'm looking at you, Levinson. You throw in the towel faster than France.

 

[Stalker]

School is on break for me any time up to the 29th i'm good with. And Brunk that sounds good with the roster size.

 

[QueenOfTheRing]

Sunday afternoon is best for me, like what we did last year.

 

[Ford]

Sorry Brunk, didn't think I needed an invite having been in the league last year.

As for days, I can't make it Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday after 6 pm EST. Thu/Fri I can do it, Sat/Sun I may or may not be able to, depending on the time. But I'd understand if you held it then. I'd love it if we did it sunday, to be before 4 pm est... ideally.

 

[DBrunkGXW]

Never know when people's emails change - wanted to confirm.

Invite sent.

 

[DBrunkGXW]

Alright, after some feedback...

How does everybody feel about a draft date of September 4th, at around 3:00pm Eastern?

This will let us draft after all preseason games (mostly) are completed, cuts are made, etc.

Also, I'll turn on draft pick trading and see how that shakes out in case you guys wanna do any trading of picks.

 

[JLevinson]

9/4 works great for me.

 

[QueenOfTheRing]

Works for me.

 

[Stalker]

sounds good

 

[TSiegel]

If we could do later in the afternoon on Sunday??

I don't get off work until at least 3pm-4pm PST...

 

[The Great Eye]

9/4 works for me, anytime that day is cool.

 

[DBrunkGXW]

How about 7pm Eastern?

 

[TSiegel]

9/4 7pm EST??

That could be do-able I think.

 

[DBrunkGXW]

I just threw names into a hat and drew for draft order. Here it is:

1. Tom Holzerman
2. Tom Ford
3. Mike Stanton
4. Lindsay Branca
5. Justin Buitron
6. Edward Burton
7. John Rivera
8. Joshua Levinson
9. Ryan Bell (my son)
10. Jamar Short
11. Tom Siegel
12. Jeff Pena
13. Pete Russo
14. Jonathan Brunk (me)

Clearly no bias in the drawing. Geez.

 

[Ford]

I won't know if I'll be able to make the draft. Sometimes it's slow, but I'll be at work during that time. Not even sure if the computers have java. Maybe I'll try to take my lunch around the beginning of the draft. I'll try to make it work.

 

[KING]

The 4th is great for me. I do, however, demand that you put our names in that damned hat again. Good grief!
