So far we have...

casman
reuben
SFD
Mack
IATA
loyaljetsfan
Laxin

Rise...my children

my late round steal year this will be David Garrard.

Let's draft
July 4th-7th and July 10th-15th are no good for me.

Coming soon to ESPN....my friars picks.
Stay tuned.

I'm sorry, you appear to have mistaken my lack of reply as my not having seen the post, rather than a complete and total lack of interest.

Really only days that aren’t great for me are 8/31-9/2

My keepers carry over right? I had Jonathan Taylor, Justin Jefferson, and Baker Mayfield

No, we're restarting the league.
-
loyaljetsfan agreed to join the league so we need at least 1 more.
-
Would probably prefer a weeknight. Weekend of 19-21 and 26-29 (including Monday) are no good for me. Can make most anything else work.

We've traditionally held the draft over Labor Day weekend.

League dues ($40) will be due on Wednesday, August 31st. Previously, we've used PayPal to collect dues but I'm open to alternatives.
-
My only concern about having 2 starting QBs is if one goes down to injury, you're fucked. Most people will probably be carrying 3 QBs on their roster, with their 3rd being subpar quality.
just my .02
-
Everyone should be rostering 3 QBs in a 2-QB league and I don't think the situation's necessarily that dire if one of your QBs gets injured.

Just throwing it out there.
It's gonna suck if you have an injury and have to pick up Sean Mannion or Josh Rosen mid season because there's no starting QBs left on the wire.

There are 32 starting quarterbacks in the league. You should have 3 on your roster.
This does become an issue in 12-team leagues which is why superflex leagues exist.
-
Someone will be a dick a hoard quarterbacks
I think we should put any kind of change up for a vote

Not if there's a limit to the number of quarterbacks any team can roster. Currently, that limit is 4.

That's fair. I'll start a poll.

Reminder that dues ($40) are due this coming Wed.

great draft fellas...thanks for hosting the zoom call, AR.

I forgot we were doing super flex until the 4th round lol

these are the worst QBs i've rostered in 23 years of playing fantasy football.

lol Cam Akers...the Friars gods are already freaking me in the bum bum.

I might finally get off the schneid....against Laxin's 3-0 powerhouse roster no less.

Deebo at 1td and 70Yrds is a great start, but I need him to get about 230 more yards and 4 more tds.

Pouring one out for Mack. Winningest club in Friars Club history but it just doesn't look like his year.

When's the redraft?

Travis Kelce "Al Bundy'd" Derek Smalls...sorry buddy.

Heis drops Ken Walker, nobody picks him up, and then Rashaad Penny immediately breaks his leg.

i got like 6 dudes out this week, jesus christ i got fucked up

I have 4 RBs and 3 of them scored 0.0 points for like the 5th week in a row.
Fuckkkkkkk

My team went from looking dominant to cheeks in one week.

My team was always cheeks

So there are two teams in this league that are 7-2. Everybody else is under .500. I don't think I've ever seen that before.

I'm gonna drop the big elbow on reuben this Sunday...to fix that trend

I have no idea how I've managed four wins. You all must be even worse at this than I am.
-
Amazing overall standings
-
5 of my losses are less than 10 points, 3 of those are within 3 points.
my runningbacks have been cursed all year and my wr have been just as injured in the last 3 weeks.
i feel like my team is better than my record, but that means literally nothing and freak this

Kyler getting carted off probably just saved SFD's bacon.

Gonna be a tight match with SFD in the first round. It's going to be glorious when Geno Smith ends his playoff run.

Good luck this week Breece Lightning!

We can’t put this to a league vote?
Idk if I can trust this decision in the hands of the commissioner with so much at stake
-
In the interest of fairness, we should probably split the prize money equally. Between the 1st-4th place teams
-
Cas already got the 3rd place prize money. All that’s left to be doled out is 1st and 2nd place.

You and Lax should just split it down the middle...and call it a draw.

If this is what the majority feels is fair, I can send the money today.

Laxin had the best team all year and in all likelihood would have won our match so, in my eyes, he’s the champion.

Anything could happen. Personally, I don't like playing the what if game (i've seen too much weird excrement in fantasy football that nothing is for certain). But you guys can decide what to do. I was just throwing it out there.
-
I’d be okay with taking scores from Burrow and Mixon this week in place. I’d rather that than just being “gifted” a win

we should all get refunds

So do we want to run it back this year?
There are a few participants that rarely looked after their teams which kind of ruins it for the rest of the league. I was yakking with Heismanberg about this a few nights ago, and he was ready to let this league die. I think this can be a fun league, but it may require some tweaks. I gave it some thought...here's what i'm suggesting
-can't believe i'm going to say this, but, bring back keepers. But on a lower scale...1 perhaps 2 keepers. 3 was too many and diluted the draft, i hated that. No franchise players either. If there's interest here, we can have a full-on discussion with everyone.
-trim the league down to like 6-8 teams...only serious participants. I was getting stomped last year and still looked after my roster. if the draft dues needs to go up to keep this league worth running, so be it.
-need to figure out ideas on how to facilitate more trading. Everyone is so worried about getting trade-raped, too much butt-clenching all season.
that's just some stuff of the top of my head. Food for thought.
-
I will rarely make a trade.
Waiver wire, babbie.

I don't see why we need to facilitate trading. Why does that matter?

Right now I have:

Heis
MB
Mack
SFD
We'll need at least 3 more...
-
I'm out.
-
If we are all really lazy, we could try to get a private best ball draft. Maybe JE and others would join that if there's no season-long management.
-
I am in

That's six

Any interest in 1) going with an auction draft, or 2) dialing back the roster by a spot or two? I can only get so pumped about creating multiple contingencies in case someone else claims Tyrvus Byrvus ahead of me.
-
Auction draft would be p cool
-
Auction drafts are way more fun, and I'd much prefer that.
-
From 1999 to about 2006...I was in an auction draft. They were a blast. But, we also ran them in-person (before the advent of yahoo and espn).
I remember we did the scoring manually...what a pain in the derriere that was. #OldenDays
