I’ll reach out to people from my old work league.
Thank you. As long as they’ll attend the draft and not abandon their team halfway through the season, anyone would be great.
I have the most wonderiferous news. No, I didn’t find 5 more players. But Yahoo changed the minimum nomination time from 30 seconds to 15. Rejoice.
Unfortunately, I haven’t gotten any bites
Thanks for trying. I may have to do something like try to recruit on reddit fantasy football forums or something this year.
Will the draft be during non work hours east coast time?
Yes. Wednesday, Sep 5 (next week) at 8pm eastern.
I have a warm body. check your PMs Beef. He will draft and play out the year.
Warm bodies are my favorite kind. Thanks.
Hopefully we can get at least 2 more and get up to 18, so this is still the big…ish league.
I will join
I think you may have PMs turned off, so I sent an invite to the e-mail listed on your account. If you want it on another e-mail PM me or post it here. Welcome aboard.
OK I joined. My name there is Kevin’s team.
We’ve got 17/20 currently. If we can make one more player, we can have a nice draft (with even numbered teams) and I think 18 would still be big enough to fit with the spirit of the league. So I’ll see what I can do, but if anyone else has anyone to invite, one more would be great. Thanks.
If you need me, I should be able to do a draft on Wednesday and won’t just drop off after that. Shoot me an invite.
Thanks Hamlet.
We’ll be at 18 now. If we get any last minute recruits, however unlikely, they’d have to come in a pair to maintain an even league. Most likely we’ll have to play at 18 this year, which should still be plenty big to give this league its big league flavor.
Does anyone happen to want to join the pick 'em and survival leagues? Not exactly fantasy, but I figured you guys might be interested and hadn’t noticed.
Well, shoot. Something has come up that I cannot get out of tomorrow evening. I suspect I won’t get there till at least 9pm eastern.
I see we got to 18 teams, so me dropping out is not a good thing at this point. I’ll do what I can to get on as soon as I can. Unfortunately, I don’t think I can draft while driving home.
Ah, that sucks. We get this draft going a little earlier than the others because it’s longer, although with the shorter nomination time option on yahoo it’ll probably shave at least a half hour off of it. If we delayed the start until 8:30 is there any chance you could make it soon after?
If you can’t attend, I think we could probably drop you and Hamlet. I think Hamlet is here just to be a good dude and fill in a slot if we need it because it’s uneven - if you have to leave then I guess we can draft with 16.
It’s up to you, I think 9pm is the likely earliest I could make it, and I can’t promise that. I’d be willing to try to be as competitive as possible coming in late, but I know it does put me at a huge disadvantage.
how long will the draft last? last year I could not make it so a team was drafted for me
