Not interested...I think if anything the person with the worst record should be the one to keep three. If he wants that is. The winner got his reward...he won!

Don't we all get to keep three? I was just proposing the overall winner get an extra keeper, upping it to four, but I don't know why in the heck I'd want that, since I was the figurative Arizona Cardinals this past fantasy season.

I just can't over the fact that despite this being my rookie year, missing the draft, being shocked in week 1 to find out my team is loaded with 5-6 top-ten receivers, ultimately getting to the finals, only to have work call up and I have to leave a week before the championship game, leaving my roster unfilled, I'd say this was a fun-filled year for your boy.


I guess what I'm trying to say is thanks for the great year (however delayed this is), and I am looking forward to take it all this fall.

I'm cool w/ each of us getting the e keepers. But not w/ the winner getting an extra. For the most part, w/ 3 keepers everyone will have guys that are still in their prime. Giving the winner another keeper is like giving him the first pick in the next draft. Even if he can only choose from his own team.

I'd almost be willing to give the team w/ the worst record an extra keeper, but only if we do random order for next year's draft and they are not allowed the first pick. Not just an inverse order from the final standings.

Hey, it's July and no word if we're going to have a second season.

I'm pretty sure there was some sort of date in July where we had to pick our 3 "keepers" for the next season.

Any thoughts?

Oh good call...I forgot about that. I just re-activated the league on ESPN. So go on there and pick your keepers. It's all the same teams as last year, but if you no longer want to do it, then please let me know asap.

If you can't pick your keepers, just let me know and I'll be able to change it for you
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

Thank you. I was stewing for about a month on asking the same thing, but it was only until yesterday that I contemplated maybe a pm or email. :p

Maybe it's time we start a new thread discussing when the upcoming draft should be/ how many teams we'll be having and ho many people we need to invite for a fulfilling second season?

Sure, I guess. But I just joined this mock draft, so it could take a while. CDR! :laff:
