Arizona's new CB Tyrann Mathieu. More drug possessions on his record than you can shake a stick at.

gotten several people signed up already in the last hour. nice.

i know for certain that we will be replacing at least one manager. i can't say for sure which manager, but one has told me he will not sign up if the other does, so we will be replacing at least one of them.

anyone got any candidates?

DWetz opted not to play. by and large, due to him feeling his life was completely better without any sort of contact with you, Baldwin. i don't know if he wanted me to say that publicly, but that's what he told me privately while politely declining an invitation to re-join the league.

so, congrats, you drove him off.

now, you may be my co-commish, but i'm going to kindly request you respect to post 13, and keep any of that sort of stuff to yourself.

i always loved this league because it was competitive, and largely a bunch of political folks being apolitical. it was a refreshing break. i'd like to return to that.

thanks, and no need to respond to this post. your competitive actions within the league will be the right kind of response.

i still haven't heard from Astade and WeyKool.

the season starts three weeks from today, and realistically, i believe we have to start drafting in about 10 days for this to work.

if we can't get them to sign up, i'm up for finding one replacement, and knocking this league down to 10 teams.

going to post something in the football thread.

i see no reason to turn down a quality owner. i do want to see if Weykool returns - if he doesn't, it looks like we'll have to recruit a second replacement manager, and y'all can pick teams or whatever.

otherwise, you'd take over DWetz' team

ok. another owner - Promize - has chimed in that he'd be interested in joining the league. i'm going to give it to this evening to do due diligence and see if anyone else is interested or even if WK shows up, but otherwise, i'll do a "coin flip" between the two owners so they can choose their teams.

if someone has the time today and wants to post the two team rosters, that would rock. thanks!

Welcome to VampireWeekend (who joined our baseball league this season and has fielded himself a might nice team) and Promize (who many of us have played against in other leagues).

i'm doing a digital coin flip so we can distribute the teams, and then i'm thinking we should have keepers due the end of the week with the draft starting on Sunday.

I miss the culture, diversity, and vibrance of NYC.
I don't miss the high prices of everything and everyone.
I sometimes miss the fast pace, and other times, don't miss it at all.

Last month I spent two weeks in Austin/Round Rock and 4 days on the Gulf Coast in Rockport/Fulton near Corpus Christi.

Except for the severe water problems, Austin area is booming. They manage to keep the golf courses in good shape, played 6 different courses, mostly in the hill country and the private Rockport Country Club at the coast. Prices are very reasonable for most everything and the locals, regardless of where they land on the politic spectrum, are very gracious. I ended up playing 4 rounds with a retired Army colonel I was paired with my first day out.

let me see if it will allow me to move the date.

i honestly don't know what to do about the draft at this point - i really wish this league was more in tune with a live draft at some point...

My other league plays on Yahoo and we did the draft on Draftime...

Unfortunately, it is late tonight or I would set it all up for you.

I probably could get it all done late Monday night or early Tuesday morning... POSSIBLY tomorrow afternoon, but doubt it...

I'm going on vacation Friday. Someone will have to draft for me after that. Maybe I'll get to make a couple picks before I leave. I vote for a 90 minute yahoo draft.

As a reversal from my position of previous years, I'm good with a fast draft too.

My head isn't in football at all right now, with the Dodgers games consuming all my excitement and allocated sports time.

promize is helping to set things up.

hopefully everyone can input their keepers now.

i just set a draft for Wednesday at 9:15 pm central.

if that's too late for east coasters, i can move it to 9 pm central, but i work until 8 that night, and need time to get home and walk my dog. we can bang out a live draft pretty fast in this league (i was waiting for bili's approval on this).

So,

We could still do Draftime if you all want to just make it a sort of fast (live) draft... Meaning, a 2 hour time limit on picks or something... But live draft on Yahoo is fine as well.

The two main things is we need keepers for two managers and emails "Just in case" we use Draftime.

I can probably have all of this ready late tonight

Looks like Keepers on Yahoo were locked again. Also it has the draft order coming up 30 minutes before the live draft if that's what we do.

Keepers for Juggernaut:

Shady McCoy
Jimmy Graham
Demariuys Thomas
Luke Kuechly
Richard Sherman

I don't see a way to enter my keepers on Yahoo, apparently it is locked, as posted here? If someone can unlock and/or tell me how, I will enter them on the Yahoo site.
Thanks

Keepers are plugged into Yahoo...
Draft order plugged into Yahoo..

I talked with Tree and I think Draftime would work for us, but it will be a 2-3 clock..

I still need emails to send Draftime invite.

Please also review your keepers on Yahoo.

how is everyone with a short clock on draft time. it does work smoothly if we're all paying attention, and it allows for those who can't make a fast draft for various reasons, to do so.

Ok everything plugged into Draftime...

Currently have it set for 5 hour picks, but will probably need less then that..

The queue system is great, please use it. :)

Or you can designate someone to pick.

Goodluck!

sorry to hold things up. i honestly didn't expect 8 picks within 30 minutes, pretty much as soon as i got to the kickball fields (looking at the time stamps).

i had a playoff game, then reffed another playoff game, and my phone died while out there.

So, we have till Wednesday night to complete this with a vacation weekend coming up. Which probably means folks will be on vacation and/or very busy. I know Sunday I'm going to be seriously handcuffed finding time to enter picks.

Even if I left the draft open 24 hours and needing to probably shut it down about 10pm on Wednesday night, that is about 184 hours. 148 picks left. Not good on how much time needed for each pick.

14 Rounds and 7 days, we need to at least get through Round 3 and be starting Round 4 by end of today. Probably will have to adjust the clock tomorrow morning by a lot if not.

Why do we even bother with Draftime if we're not going to take advantage of it?

Having a 5 hour clock is basically saying,
"Don't bother setting ques and making them available."

Set clock for 2 hours and we'll be done by Friday, as it should be.

we're at the point in the draft now where it should be easier and easier to leave queues, and this comes from someone who HATES queues.

we are more than halfway through, but between the pick-based queue option and the general queue option, it shouldn't be too tough to leave at least a couple rounds queued up.

let's get this done.

No, not in 101 League. Other league I play in is local league here in Seattle. I think your game was already decided before Navarro pick-6 ? I know that the pick-6 did decide that game in my other league. It is 16 teams, winner gets like $500 or so ($75 entry, but we do $25 for weekly high score, I don't remember what 1st or 2nd get exactly). Sure it was a good feeling for that dude watching that TD run, especially that late in the game ;-)
