That’s right, no one. I’ve gutted my team after last years debacle and are forming a future juggernaut (bitch!). Fear me. ---

Just so you guys know, I got a couple trades emailed to me that I have yet to post here. Just not in the mood to deal with it at the moment. For those who emailed me trades, assume they went through. In the meantime, today’s keeper declaration, so please do post your keepers if you haven’t already. I’ll post the keeper results once I’ve heard from everyone. ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > **Jules** , you really think Gonzo Jr. is worth a fourth-rounder??? I don’t want to be too explicit before the draft, but yes and no. No because his ADP in a 14 team league is the 5th round, and I screwed up when I did the math and thought he was equal to a 4th rounder, oops! Yes, because I really like him this season and even with my stupid mistake (I wouldn’t have elected to keep him had I done the math correctly) I’d rather take someone I know I like this season and pay a 1 round penalty, than have him snatched out from under me the pick before mine. I pick late in round 5, I probably wouldn’t get him. Maybe my mistake was the best outcome. 🙂 ---

I haven’t kept track of everyone’s keepers. Will they be taken off the draft list when we do our live draft, or will we have to keep track again? ---

IIRC, last year they were on the list but greyed out so you couldn’t select them. ---

> [@Hamlet](#): > > I haven’t kept track of everyone’s keepers. Will they be taken off the draft list when we do our live draft, or will we have to keep track again? They’ll be plugged into the draft before we start (as will the traded picks). Yahoo has really stepped up their game the last few years. ---

Getting screwed by a technicality is pretty much the antithesis of this league; we’re just here to have fun. That’s why I lobbied so hard in the early years to keep money out of it. ---

Well, that too. ETA: There are actually several reasons: 1. I stink. 2. Commishing a money league has zero appeal for me, since settling disputes will cost someone money and probably hurt feelings. 3. I am fiercely private, and would not willingly tell any of you slobs who I am or how to reach me. (Or anyone on any MB I inhabit.) 4. I do not do money over the internet due to mostly irrational paranoia. 5. Playing for money introduces pedantic rules-lawyering, and makes it impossible for me to offer friendly “are you sure?” second chances in the name of fun. ---

I would not do a money league with people I didn’t know IRL anyway. Mostly because of the dispute thing. ---
