I’ll have cuts soon. Can we include a provision that any major injuries/suspnsions that occur between today and the draft can be added to our drop lists without penalty? ---

Looking at the Yahoo roster, I’m keeping 19. I guess we have 25 total. Cuts: Harry Douglas, Atl, WR John Carlson, Min, TE Riley Cooper, Phi, WR Colin Kaepernick, SF, QB Indianapolis, Def LaDainian Tomlinson, RB, retired So we’re not using Yahoo’s draft. How am I supposed to know who’s available? ---

Can’t do the draft as I likely won’t be online for the next week. (Reformatting my hard drive.) VarlosZ can take control of my team for the cuts and draft and then I’ll be back to control it during the season. Other than this league I’m dropping out of fantasy altogether, so if anyone here is in the keeper league please set your email as viewable so I can switch the commissioner to **anybody**. (I’ll be offline within the next 12-24 hours.) Whoever gets it can then switch it to whoever it makes sense to be the new commish. ---

Cuts coming tomorrow. Should not cut while severely drunk. ---

Sorry about the late cuts, I thought we had longer or I’d have done them before I left - I only had 5 minutes of internet access here and there over the last few days. Cut list: Chris Ivory, RB, Saints Lance Ball, RB, Broncos Kahlil Bell, RB, Packers Oakland Defense Now if Varlos could enter the keeper data, we’d be able to get a list of availables from the yahoo page I think. ---

My team’s cut list: QB Clot McCoy RB Marion Barber RB Justin Forsett WR Ted Ginn Jr. WR Danny Amendola And I may add Danny Woodhead to the cuts as I’m entering the keepers, I’m not sure – if I do, I’ll post a note here. ---

**Ellis Dee** ’s cut list is below. Keep in mind that I’m the one making these cuts on **Ellis** ’ behalf, so if he gets in touch with me in the coming days (even after the draft has started) to let me know that he’d really rather hang on to (for instance) Lawrence Tynes, I’m going to try to accommodate him if I don’t think that doing so would step on someone else’s toes. Also note that I’m leaving TE Jake Ballard off this list because, IIRC, we can drop players who are on our IR list and thus free up the spot; if that turns out not to be the case, I may go back and let Ballard go. Anyway, here is the [Fanboys](http://archive.fantasysports.yahoo.com/archive/nfl/2011/44622/12)’ provisional cut list – if anybody thinks I’m making an obvious mistake in either direction, please let me know. RB Stefan Logan WR Jason Avant WR Earl Bennett WR Plaxico Burress WR Brad Smith WR Michael Spurlock K Lawrence Tynes ---

The only cut list we’re still missing is **furt** ’s. I’d somehow gotten it into my head that \*\*Petey \*\*was the only fellow we hadn’t heard from, and missed the fact that **furt** hasn’t posted to the board in a few weeks. I sent him another PM this morning, so hopefully we’ll have his list today and the draft clock can start tomorrow (let’s say at noon), as planned. If he’s tardy I’m willing to wait up to a couple of days for him to reappear, but past that we’ll have to make a decision about either scrapping the message board draft or else putting his team into temporary receivership (like **Ellis** ’) so that the thing can come off. ---

I’ve added to **dalej42** ’s cuts the names of Ricky Williams and Patrick Crayton, as neither of them are signed to a team or listed on Yahoo’s FF player database. By default these players are cuts, but, as in previous years, \*\*dale \*\*has the option to keep empty spots on his roster and thus retain the rights to either or both of these players if and when they sign with a team. Let me know if that’s what you want to do. I’ll make notes of any other, similar cuts as I input the keepers. ---

Along those same lines, the following players were added to their teams’ respective cut lists due to their not currently being on an NFL roster. If any of the four owners below would like to retain the rights to their player(s) at the expense of a roster spot, let me know as soon as possible. - **Petey (Isotopes)** – added Hines Ward and Thomas Jones to cut list. - \*\*RNATB \*\*-- added Carnell Williams, Jeremy Shockey, and Mike Sims-Walker to cut list. - **Stringer (We Do HGH)** – added Maurice Morris to the cut list. - **dalej42 (Warner’s Brother’s)** – as previously noted, added Ricky Williams and Patrick Crayton to the cut list. And in other news, I ( **Varlos’ Zzzzzzz** ) did in the end decide to add Danny Woodhead to my own cut list, along with Vincent Brown (ankle injury). ---

Thanks, good catch; I’ll change that. > [@](#): > > I’m going to keep Sims-Walker’s spot open just in case he lands somewhere good. Ok. What you’re going to have to do is cut (or place on IR) someone _immediately_ after the draft and play with 24 on your active roster until either Sims-Walker signs or you decide to relinquish his rights.
