After further consideration, even though this is my favorite league and I will be bummed about having to go on the waiting list if I rejoin later, I shouldn't take on the responsibility of a money league right now. I'm having a kid in November, so I doubt my wife will be happy with me if I'm like "yo, hold the baby, I need to set my waiver wire claims".

It's obviously up to you, but in my experience, I had the most success when my kids were newborns. You're up in the middle of the night, anyway, so you get first crack at the free agents after the waivers process!

Kids are a 24/7 job and if you take five minutes for yourself you are horrible human being.

Obviously not. But between a new job in a new country with a new language and the baby coming I really don't even have the time to prep for the draft. As much as I like giving you guys my money I generally like to try to draft a good team before inevitably losing anyways.

Looks like we have some conflicts the week of 8/25-8/29, and I had to put my friends and family league on Sept. 4, so here is yet another draft date: Tuesday, September 3rd .

Planning another goon draft that day. If I was the only conflict, feel free to move it back to that Wednesday in August or Wednesday on August 21 works too.

Woah what the gently caress is going on

I’ve been doing this league for like 4 years straight. My name is not in the OP and I literally only knew to check on it because I got an email from Yahoo! Fantasy telling me a draft date has been set. May I please continue to manage my team or did I get squeezed out?

If I don’t win the league this year, that’s my built in excuse.

If I do win, that’s a feel good “overcame great obstacles” story for the press.

No, you're in! I was trying to figure out who the missing team was. I thought it was you but it's hard to tell from the app. I was gonna do some research on it tonight. Also, you should've got an email when I renewed the league back in July.

That means we're full! I'll update the team list now.

Hey Silly Burrito, be sure to test the Yahoo mock auction phone app. It's been hanging for me. I bet it's either my phone or something they have fixed since I tried to mock with it a few weeks ago.

Hey y’all, I’ve been thinking about this for a bit and I think I’m going to bow out this year. I really want to limit myself to 2 leagues this year and between College Buddy League and Work League, I don’t have the bandwidth for Internet Stranger League anymore. :(

I’ve had a blast playing with each of you these past 5 years or so. Despite never rising above 6th place, I always felt like I did a respectable enough job, and you have all obviously been very tough competition.

Good luck to all you fuckers and god help the bastard who inherits my spot!

E: oh I’m also going to be in NYC for the first time on the day of the draft.

It is, and the only reason for it is that the settings have carried over since the olden days when RB/WR was the standard for a flex spot.

You’re probably correct. My picks were so amazing that they probably should be declared lethal weapons and be too powerful for one man to own.
