Just let me know if I can be in one at Yahoo! or not. I'll forget about the ESPN one like I did last year.

Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
I know I pretty much never post anymore, but glad to be back. I would not be adverse to a draft date change since the 29th doesn't work for me either, but I'll set up for auto draft if it stays. Never been in a 20-team league before. Should be interesting.
How do you all get your death notices since I left?
Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
The 20 team league is tough. Low scoring and byes are brutal. For those who want some history..the 20 team leagues was done in 2005 and was the 2nd year of Swamp Fantasy Football on Yahoo (the History is why I fight to keep the league on Yahoo)

Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
If someone else feels like organizing it and hurding folks into the right leagues, I will do what is asked. But based on the effort to get people to signup for the league (notice when I started this thread), I think we suck it up for this year and then reorganize for 2015/16.
Plus if you win in a 20 team league, you show you have some real Fantasy Football skill. Any punk can win an 8 person or 10 person league. 14 is pretty good, but 20 is down right something to be proud of.

Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
Tommy's Triple Ts will accept that accolade, while also pointing out that I got into the playoff in the last spot and that would pretty much be the argument against a 20 man league.
Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
Well anyone that doesn't want to be in a 20 team league or feels that they shouldn't be in the premiership send me a PM with an email addy and I'll send out an invite.

Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
Does unknown have teams that want to play or is it just full of teams that have abandoned the board post swampocalypse #42. Just wondering about some sort of purge process so we don't have teams without weekly rosters.
Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
I'll join wherever. Didn't play last year and was in Nationwide in 2012. No interest in any league larger than 12 teams.

Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
We need one in or one out in the Premiership. We currently have an odd number of teams. If I don't have the right numbers I will have to drop someone, which I don't want to do.
Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
I'll drop. Don't think I can make the draft tomorrow night anyway.

Wlu_lax, please delete my team from the league. I can't find a link or anything that will remove my team voluntarily.

I'm not going to make the draft, feel free to take me out of the league if there is an odd number. I am without a computer, so I didn't get to set draft queue. Auto draft should be interesting.

You are now down to 20 teams. I opted out.

Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
Damn I feel like this proud tradition is going down in flames.
perhaps we have not given enough credit to the wulaxi and zumbazes of the world, but we used to have this thing ripping at 4 leagues a year, now we've got one big porker league drafting on the friday of a holiday weekend and a second maybe will maybe won't league.

If HDO does not resignup we are down to 19 teams....Need an even number to draft. Postponing draft to Monday night so we can get this worked out.
Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
So who's supposed to join, HDO or ljam?
Oh, and I'll probably be there for the draft now. Should be winding down the weekend by then.

Re: Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015
Why did we change the time on the draft? If someone cannot make it tonight, at least spare a thought for the guy who is living 5 hours ahead of the East coast and is drafting after midnight in a 20 team league which could last a few hours...
I looked at the draft yesterday and we were still good to go tonight and now it has moved!
