Yeah, my friend now responded that he's too busy.

**Dissonance** · 08-21-2012, 12:25 PM

Edited the title. Maybe someone will wake up and join.

Alright, DAT is a running back. I was thinking about that last night like "he's a top 10 RB, but... I bet he'd be the #1 WR!"

And no doubt I will be the Vikings in a Hershel Walker deal for #1 overall.

Looks like next Wednesday works for everybody then? Neither of my friends are good for Sunday, but I haven't heard anyone complain about Wednesday.

This rule or any similar one would force you to consistently build a team in order to win.

This is going to be fun though. It will be fun to watch all that Nim gives up for Montee Ball probably including actual cash considerations or at least he will order a pizza online for you. Or to watch me draft every eligible LSU running back and play them as a unit like The Hat. ATLien will draft a team of guys he loves then hate each individual one by seasons end guaranteed.

So you're saying I should draft guys I already hate?

The way I see it, the waiver wire is going to have a lot of good options for teams. Especially with so few in the league (which I'm in favor of for Year 1).

**Dissonance** · 08-21-2012, 01:15 PM

That's kinda why I think we should try to aim for 10. I don't know if less people is good.

Weds should be fine.

I also think the waiver wire will have good players. However I have a huge fear that by the time we hit next August that may not be the case. If someone wants to build a team entirely of seniors, that is their prerogative. It is something I have considered, but I'm pretty paranoid about getting left with absolute crap next year.

Just remember there will be a transaction deadline on Halloween to prevent tanking.

EDIT: And can everyone send me their gmail? You can PM if you don't want to put it out here. I'll start a list when I get everyone's and send out a league email.

With nine roster spots for your non-starters, you can afford to have a balance between NFL draft eligible players and young guys. I don't think there's any way someone can win with drafting underclassmen heavy this year, but it would pay off in 2013.

Nimreitz · 08-21-2012, 01:52 PM

It could, but then you could also get blown away by the next Denard Robinson showing up at Arizona.

TheAnswer · 08-21-2012, 02:03 PM

I'll join in by the end of the day if no one takes the last spot. Not really too high on College ball, but I do know enough to know wth I'm doing.

Nimreitz · 08-21-2012, 02:07 PM

You're cool with the rules?

TheAnswer · 08-21-2012, 02:17 PM

Yeah I'm down, liking the no defenses too.

Sign me up in a few hrs if no one takes that spot.

Nimreitz · 08-21-2012, 02:18 PM

Alright cool. Let me know your gmail.

Nimreitz · 08-24-2012, 03:38 AM

What's the deal Answer? Looks like if you don't get in Year 1 is going to be like the Big East with a 7 team league. I planned for this (by not planning) and this year it will be a points leader board only, so it doesn't really matter, but I'd like to have 8 this year. Also like to get 10 next year, so talk up this league to all your friends during the year.

GT, please add yourself to the google group. Sent an email a few days ago.

**Dissonance** · 08-27-2012, 10:36 PM

This thing in jeopardy for later tonight?

ATLien · 08-28-2012, 05:30 AM
