Any thoughts on a draft date or is it still a bit early? Some of my other leagues are starting to post them and just want to make sure there are no conflicts while there is time to change them. Usually we do a Sunday in late August?

Put me on that “change division” list. Considering shaking this thing up, so I’ll take first opportunity. Might not swap, but might… and if so, I want to be first in line.

We've got four spots left for returning players who haven't responded yet in this thread or the ESPN page. If someone doesn't come back by August 15th, you can swap in their place if you want.

I'd like to welcome Thom and the Heads to the 20 Team League! Punch Drunk's team will not be joining this year, so Thom and the Heads will take their place. I'm waiting to hear from EconDad on a PM I sent earlier today regarding divisions, but once that's complete, I'll send the invitation.

The schedule may take a bit longer but in the next couple of days.

Scratch everything that was here this morning, EconDad helped to solve it, and we now have a 8 division/4 conference/2 out of conference schedule. Much thanks to him for his help! This way, even if the schedule maker doesn't come back up, we have a workable 14 game fantasy schedule. The uploaded Excel template is at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IWrdJsfhbgU-PbE37ScHBTBxqHHGqBAt/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=109765200165886188310&rtpof=true&sd=true if anyone wants to see it. The home/away may not be exactly matching but since it doesn't mean anything to us, I didn't worry about that as much. Every year, we can shift the teams so that Montana/Marino shift down a slot, and Romo/Namath shift up a slot so that we get fresh OOC matchups. Week 1 Boudin Ballers vs. High Hrothgar Housecarls Division Seattle Frasiers vs. Discount Double Champ Division Naptown Sleepers vs. Rated R Superstars Division Akron Peppercorns vs. The Fightin'

EconDad posted:maybe you want to LIGHT IT UP with pick 20? I do a lot of mocks for fun and the one thing I hate about it is that at that mid-range, you're forced to pick either from the 2nd-tier of RBs or nab one of Davante Adams/Tyreek Hill at WR and miss out on most of the good RBs entirely. Occasionally both Hill and Adams are gone and then, gently caress, what do you even do? I suppose I could draft Kelce at #9 but even with him it's just, yuck, a TE in the top 10? Before the pick order was set, ESPN had my team set to pick at 20 and I think I liked the teams I scraped out from there better.

I drafted Kelce 15th last year and he ended up being the most important part of my team. I remember even somehow feeling confident with the pick when I made it too. That’s rare for me.

So this is the part where the hurricane comes thru and knocks out power, forcing an autodraft of SB and Braksgirl, then they go on to finish first and second with their ragtag band of injured players, domestic abusers and contract holdouts, right? I have seen this movie already In all seriousness. stay safe and as was suggested before, move the draft if you need to. Or at very least, don't put yourself at risk in the name of  FOOTBALL

Appreciate all the kind words, thank you all. Braksgirl had plans before all of this and should be safely out of danger as of right now. We are on the projected northwest side of the hurricane in central Louisiana by about 30 miles of the middle track (yeah, I know, don't follow the middle track exactly) so hopefully it won't be as bad for us as it could have been but we still will probably get hurricane wind gusts in our area and 6-10 inches of rain. For BR and NO, it just looks scary with a ton of rain added to an area that already has met the normal yearly amount of rain in August. Pray for the tree roots.  If nothing else, I'll see how well the pre-draft strategy settings work. Screw best available, I'm going positional. Y'all save me a decent QB.  Hopefully see y'all tonight at the draft, and if not, I'll check back in when I can. Silly Burrito fucked around with this message at 16:37 on Aug 29, 2021 |

If you cant make it to the draft we will all leave the draft in solidarity. In fact, make me co-commissioner. That way I will stay in the draft, by myself the whole time, and kick out anyone who tries to take advantage of the situation to draft.
