August 14, 201114 yr Author comment_92943 Also Id like to add that I forgot to include fleas team as one with a $5 credit because I was going off of the leaguesafe site and forgot that he had sent me a check for $25 last year. So if we did go $30 this year hed only owe $25 with the others I listed or if we go $25 he would owe $20. I sent out the leaguesafe requests for 25 but if we decide to make it 30 we can change it. Ill just have to figure out a way to credit everyone. So just dont worry about that for now. Flea you can send a check again or paypal or do whatever works for you. Report
August 14, 201114 yr comment_92970 Yes, thats what it means. This is what the draft order would be: 1. The Mad Lithuanians 2. Bluecollarbears 3. Cali Bears 4. Nopper 5. Da' Grizzled 6. DevilDogs 7. The Bunny 8. PapaBear 9. Acedthesobrietytest 10. Crushers Excellent! Now I can waste a chunk of my Sunday "mock drafting." With no good sports to watch today, I was starting to worry I may have to be productive. Report

August 14, 201114 yr comment_92991 Adding more sounds good to me... I'm happy to continue to sponsor the event. ok, if youre for or opposed to making the buy in $30 let me know. If we get 5 people to agree to it then we will go with it. Report
August 14, 201114 yr comment_92993 I vote for waviers only... Reduce roster size to your proposal. Ill repost what I put on the yahoo site Ok there are actually 2 issues we need to figure out Issue one. Waivers or no waivers. Ill say right off the bat if we dont have waivers we cant have a set time to start picking up FA because theres no difference to having no set time then. Peoples availability to be in front of a cpu will always be different so it has to either be let them pick up FA whenever they want or just have waivers. Please reply to this post with waivers or no waivers. I personally vote no waivers and leave it how it is. Issue two. Roster size. A few people wanted smaller rosters. What I propose is we drop the WR/TE flex position and make both the WR/RB flex spots WR/RB/TE and then we drop TWO bench spots. So let me know if you are for this idea, want to keep it the way it is or have something else in mind. Report
August 14, 201114 yr comment_92994 I'm happy to kee dues to the original amount. I am down with what works for the majority. I'd have to second that ^ As far as the "kitty" if the majority rules for increase I'll help too. Otherwise I'm abstaining on that call. Report

I think with everybody living in different time zones, it is an unfair advantage to pick players up when the game is on. Also I have mentioned being for the increase and for roster reduction. Report

We will also move to a waiver system. I know theres only 5 votes for it and 4 against it but either way crushers vote wouldnt matter because if he voted for no waivers I would have to abstain my vote as commissioner to keep the number of votes odd and waivers would win anyway. I am just going to keep the buy in at $25 because a few people voiced concerns with raising it and the more I thought about it I think for us to change it the vote should have to be unanimous for something like that.

August 20, 201114 yr comment_93438 Who are everyone's keepers? The rules are we get to draft one player one round ahead of where we drafted them last year. I'm taking Arian Foster in the 3rd round. (I took him with the 1st pick in the 4th round last year). This beats the hell out of last year when I kept Tashard Choice in the 15th round (and eventually dropped him) Updated Ok, Were gonna take away the wr/te flex position and 2 bench spots, so each roster will have 2 less players overall.
