Bum Fights - Pollard
My Team Sucks - Thomas Jr.

Scotty Doesn't Know - Higgins & Williams

Adam is there a way to switch the MY TEAM SUCKS team to Mike Gretsy at ranordoorguy@gmail.com. I put both under my name 2 yrs ago when he was in that motorcycle accident and was in the hospital. Then paid for it and got it back from him.

I tried to switch to his email as a preference and it also changes my team email preference. We are listed as co managers on his team. 

It would be a lot easier if these were just separate instead of a co manager situation on team SUCK.

Yes, I just sent him another invite via Yahoo to ranordoorguy@gmail.com to take ownership of My Team Sucks.

Thanks a lot, you always do a good job, the only problem is you seem to win all the time.

thanks, it's a crapshoot, injuries are probably the biggest determining factor, and not overdrafting.

I've been playing FF from before the internet where you had to go to bars to make leagues up. Consistent winners in FF are not about being lucky, you're very smart at this and trying to be humble isnt going to work. Injuries affect every team during the year. This one friend is in 22 FF money drafts. He doesnt win every league but is in the money placing in 1/3 his leagues. That's not about luck most of the time, its about being smart.

I started playing in 1995 via Sporting News. You had to call in your changes every week between Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. Then they would mail you the results weekly which you may not even receive until Wednesday or Thursday anyway. If you wanted a waiver wire pickup, you had to pay like $1-2 per. It was crazy.

One of the biggest factors is also the waiver wire. Every year that I do well, I hit on at least one key waiver wire acquisition.

I have played with you for a long time now and an complementing on being good at this. I use to be in 6 leagues and there is always a few people that consistently do well and you are in that category.
