First, let me apologize for the lateness of this post and of the scheduling for the upcoming season. As most of you know, I've moved to a new job that has taken up a ton of my time this summer. When I was covering high school sports, summers were boring and I had way too much time on my hands to come up with random fantasy football ideas. No longer.
But we are still doing this league and it's still gonna rock. I'm still planning on posting weekly about the league, though the updates will likely be shorter. If anyone wants to write a weekly update, lemme know. I'm open to it.
So here are two things we need to decide right now to get started. There are polls for both of these things on the right side of your screen, so please vote!
(1) Draft date.
As I said in an earlier email, we won't be having an official party this year, but I still want to do a live online draft.
Would this Saturday, Aug. 22 work for everyone? I'm thinking mid-afternoon would be good, like 3 or 4 so that we're not messing up anyone's dinner. And that translates to a regular time in Hawaii, I think.
If that doesn't work for most people, we'll figure out another date. Vote in the poll. If you can't make it, remember to rank your players so that when you autodraft it picks people you want it to.
(2) Add two teams?
I have a request from a friend to join the league. (He actually quit another league in the hopes of joining us. We're that awesome.) As of now, all but two of the teams have confirmed to me that they are playing this year. If all 14 confirm, how would you feel about adding two more (it has to be an even number) to take the league to 16?
I know it will make the league harder, but who doesn't like a little challenge?
Again, vote in the poll. This will be a majority rules situation. If someone happens to drop out before Saturday, this doesn't matter and I'll plug in the new person.
I think that's it for now. Please vote in the polls! I'll do a more formal beginning-of-season post soon.
Happy football!
