…..currently there are no open spots, but if anyone would like to join please let us know in this thread. 

dues will be $25, payable before the start of week 2.  a certain manager - and you know who you are - will be watched very closely ;D

NFL & FF season starts on thursday, sept. 10.

I'll join if there ends up being any open spots….

I think we need a bunch to sign up.  Only 8 so far.

Am I already included in that bunch? If not, I'm in.

I'm actually pondering bailing if anyone wants my spot…

Edit: I'm out, my spot is open. 

ok folks, sorry for the silence.  i was on vacation for 11 days, then came back to a sh*tstorm at work.  i've resurfaced.


#1 - we're at 7 players, so we need at least one more.  KUBACHECK - please PM me your email address, i'll send you an invite.  if anyone else wants to join, please let me know.  we have space for more.

you're Flying Elbows (purplesuitjoker), right?  if so, no, you haven't renewed so you're not in yet.  please check your email.  lemme know if you want to use another email address.


#2 -the DRAFT is currently set for next tuesday, september 8 at 9:00 PM.  i'm hoping that time works for everyone.  if it doesn't please say so ASAP so we can set up a voting system to try to find a better time.

kubacheck is in! 

DFA1979, please join ASAP, let's find someone else to make this a 10-person league, and let's do this.

as always, don't let BookerT win.

I guess Brady just bumped up a few rounds.

I love that the judge put "independent" in quotes every. single. time. he typed independent investigation. Do Goodell and Wells basically just resign at this point? They have completely broken NFL punishment.

Whoops! All signed up!

alrighty, we now have 9 team.  we need an even number for the head-to-head format, so we need one more playah.

who's going to step up?

(i like 10 players better than 12, more talent available on waivers… more chances for tides to shift during the season)

draft is tomorrow (Tuesday) night at 9 PM… unfortunately we still have an uneven number of teams (9). 

we either need one more player to join us, or we'll need to drop someone… i would much prefer finding someone to round us out at 10.  step on up, folks!

to make things easier, since I'm the new guy, if you have to drop someone to make it an even league, it's ok if it's me, my feelings will not be hurt…..

thanks kubacheck, very honorable of you.  hopefully someone will step up and take the open spot, so we all get to play!

no prob…. either way, I'll do the survivor pool if you get one of those up and running….

I'm asking around, I'm assuming they don't have to be a boardie, yes?

nope, we're open to all.

Sir BookerT has bowed out of the league, so unless we get 2 new managers in the next 4 hours, we're going with an 8 person league.

on the upside, that means that there should be plenty of talent sitting on waivers at all time.  this is likely to be the highest ever scoring season for League930.

on the downside, we won't have BookerT in the league this year.  sure, it clears the path to championship somewhat, but any victory without overcoming the all-time winningest player makes it all a little hollow.  Booker, we'll miss you.  looking forward to having you back next year.

I feel kinda bad that I'm in at the expense of a long time league member, is he sure he wants out??… as I said, it would've no problem for me to wait around till next year….

kuba - don't sweat it.  bookerT wrote that this isn't a good year for him to be playing.  sounds like he wanted and out, our odd-man situation provided the excuse he was looking for.
