As far as I know at present Jaffa Cake is our only European team owner.

Nice to know that I'm upholding the honour and sporting integrity of a whole continent!

The 2pm Central would be ideal for me, mscriv - that's 8pm here unless I'm mistaken. However, if the majority in my League would prefer something a little later that should be no problem - it's a Bank Holiday here on the Monday so no work for me, so if the 5pm slot suits the OSX crowd better I can do that if needs must.

The Tuesday 8pm Central draft would be a complete no go for me unfortunately.

I need everyone, newbie or veteran, to send me a PM with a current email so that I can send out league invitations.

I've sent you the PM and Sunday is great for me. 2 or 5 PM central, either way.
I was thinking of going to a class on the 27th but if worse came to worse, I can attend another class on another date. My choice would be Sunday though.

Great, now send me a PM with a current email address and if you have a draft time conflict or preference.

I need all new players to do this if they haven't done so already.

I would prefer Sunday 2PM central time. 5PM is OK as well. Tuesday wouldn't be easy, but since I'm a newbie :)o) I'm okay with any draft I'm appointed to.

I'm in. PM sent. I'd prefer the draft to be as early as possible as long as everyone can make it.
 
I still need email addresses from the following:

Rookies
  • Dontazemebro
  • jrswizzle
  • rockyroad55

Veterans - if it hasn't changed from last year okay, but I need confirmation

Okay, here's where we stand. I still need email addresses as listed in the previous post and here's the current leagues. If you have a draft conflict then I need to hear from you about it ASAP. I may be able to make an adjustment, I may not, no promises.

So are we scraping the old leagues and starting over or just renaming?
Click to expand...

The current leagues at ESPN will remain and I will rename them. Team owners will be adjusted accordingly and I will set up the third leage as an entirely new league. Switching from 12 teams to 10 teams means I have to change up the divisions entirely, making a move from 4 divisions within each league to only 2 divisions within each league. I will also have to redo the entire match -up schedule for each league. Man, you guys/gals sure are generating a lot of work for me. :eek:


Due to my busy schedule I'm going to have to push the Mac OS League's draft back one hour from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

They actually PM'd me to ask if there was any way I could move you into another league. They even offered me $20, not sure where they got that idea? Lucky for you I have integrity and told them you would be staying put. ;) :D

How is this all going to work out as far as a trophy goes ?
Click to expand...

Hmm... Let me get this straight. You've just joined the league... you've already posted "reported proof" of other Fantasy Football Championships you've won... and now you are asking about how the Championship Trophy is going to work here...

I like your confidence, oops, overconfidence. :D


Truth is, we will end up with three champions, one for each league. There is really no way to compare them for the purpose of ending up with one overall champion because of the nature of how everything is set up. If QOS wants to provide a championship trophy then that award would be given to the champion in the league in which she plays. The other leagues can come up with an award for their champions as well if someone wants to do that.

Fantastic.
Have the leagues been created on ESPN?
Click to expand...

The two we have run for the last couple of years are still there. I am planning to set up the third one tonight and all invites will go out.*

*With the exception of those newbies who have not yet sent me their email addresses! Here's the deal folks, we can't draft until everyone checks into the league. So once invites go out tonight eveyone has to respond by logging into the league and then the draft will unlock.

jrswizzle and rockyroad55 are still unaccounted for!

I'm in the waiting list and will definitely stay active.

Need you to PM me your current email so I can officially invite you to the league through ESPN.

Hey now ! I'm just trying to be positive. Even though I'll probably be the loser there's nothing wrong with a goal..Or 20 or 30 ..

:D

You're currently at one less championship than me. That's the quality of opposition you're up against here. :D

Anyway, cheers to mscriv for his work in sorting all of this out – suffice to say his efforts are appreciated.

Well, that's something we have in common then. I'm "positive" you won't have to worry about the trophy!

Ouch, zing, yowza... just flex'n my trash talking muscles a bit to make sure they haven't rusted in the off season. :D ;)

Ok. You got me.

I guess that's what happens when Tony Romo is involved.

Ouch ! Bazinga !!

:p


[edit] the thought occurred to me this might have been taken personally since you live in Dallas.

It wasn't meant that way. Just me practicing my trash talk. Which means Karma will put me in 10th place. lol

PM replied with email. Date and time looks good.

Can't wait. I've never done fantasy ever before. I'm going to end up dead last :(

It's all good Peace. When it comes to fantasy football trash talk it's okay to "cut deep" as long as it's done in good fun. Sadly for you, I'm a Texas transplant born and raised in Nashville, TN. So, the Cowboys are not my home team, the Titans are. I'll give you a C for effort though! Keep practicing, you'll get better. Be warned though, you best be at top form before stepping into the smack talk ring with rdowns, einmusiker, creator 2456, or any of the ladies who play with us like Moyank, QOS, and GoCubsGo. Thesen veterans have no mercy and will give you a right proper teasing like you've never had. Jaffa Cake will do it too, but most of us don't get his "British humor" and only really understand about half of what he is talking about. ;) :p
