If you guys want to put money on this, Im game. Definitely keep guys interested longer. As for trading, keepers wont be locked until about a week before the draft. If the game allows trades now, go for it.
Not that my 0.02$ matters as I am not in he league (yet , hopefully) but I have always found guys are less likely to be MIA if cash is on the line
I'd like to put some money on it for the reason AJ said, maybe that will keep people interested in it. Seemed like I was one of the few looking at it towards the end last year (although I did tail off as well later). Thanks for the info on the keepers costing money, that may change some of my choices...
So AJ Hart MN Are you in if money is involved and out if not? Is that what Im reading here? Is everyone else cool with a small ante?
I'm having some issues deciding my keepers.. I have half a mind to keep Feliz for 8$. I'm really feeling him as a starter and I thought CarGo was defiantly a keeper but I'm having second thoughts for 34$.. Decisions, Decisions
Bondzai ryalaman briosu99 dnf913 AJ Hart MN Big Suge Knight KnightNoles PepperNY abolishthefed The above is our tentative roster. Bondzai was first on the list due to inquiring about this last year after we were already full. Danthraxxx and mcyork are on deck. I would be happy to expand to 12 teams if you two want to, however, since this is a keeper league, you will be getting the "leftovers" from this year's keepers. Before this can be finalized, you need to sign up for the league through leaguesafe and make your deposit of $25. You will have until Midnight Friday 3/9/12. If you have not made your deposit your roster spot will be filled by another GM. Prizes will be a 75/25 split for 1st and 2nd place. With 10 GM's thats $185/$65. Leaguesafe is secure and works just fine. Ask AJ, he won money in the fantasy football league I ran last year. Make sure everyone understands the rules as well as practices using the auction draft software. There are free mock auction drafts available via ESPN. I currently have everyone's email address except Bondzai . I will send leaguesafe invites today. Let me know if there are any questions.
Bondzai ryalaman briosu99 dnf913 AJ Hart MN Big Suge Knight KnightNoles PepperNY abolishthefed Correction! ESPN will not show me your email addresses. So please PM or post here your email info.
I hear ya man. Im considering letting Josh Hamilton go into the draft at $35 and keeping Beckett for the $5 I got him for last year. Asit stand right now all my keepers are going to cost me $160
Also in the event I get run over by a bus or something this summer, AJ will have commisioner rights through leaguesafe. If we both get run over by a bus... we're all out $25.
One more thing. I set up leaguesafe to accept Echeck deposits only. If I activate both credit cards and Echecks, there is a 3% service charge on all transactions. So hopefully everyone can use the Echeck feature.
Unfortunately yes. This is year two. Unless some guys dont pay up by Friday, then its possible there is an opening. But there are two guys ahead of you. Unless we expanded, but in a keeper league that hurts new guys.
I'd take whatever I could get... I'm bummed I didn't stick with it last year... I went with a league with my friends from high school... Was fun, but this year it's going to collapse... I need to be in a league with a bunch of guys that like to do it and want to stick it out for the longer run.
Ill certainly keep you in mind. If Danthraxx and York want to expand, we'd just need one more and go to 16 teams. Huge, but much more fun
Tell me about it. It makes guys pay a ton of attention to not only current roster guys, but prospects too. Even newly drafted ones.
I could take an expansion team or however , I will review once I am out of my super secret training here at work
