I'm willing to admit 3 keepers might be a little much, but I'm not inclined to think that someone with two elite QB's is suffering if we reduce the position to only one. He'll just have tantalizing trade bait if he decides to keep both.

Why don't we put it to a vote on the league page?
1, 2 or 3.

I'm fine with three keepers despite having a roster that doesn't seem worth keeping.

What, Kurt Warner isn't a keeper?
(although I do think you have a couple of guys worth hanging on to...)

fluid, your invite should be available for you.
Be sure to vote for the keeper selection number and lets lock down a draft date!

Vote on the amount of keeper selections, you slags!
And those of you in my Spygate Freakout league need to vote on per-yard scoring ASAP (or else the terrorists win!)

I would go vote UD... but it's taken me this long to clean the puke off my keyboard from the last time I saw the main page image.

Yeah, I really think UD needs to be fined a draft pick for that.

You guys must have an eye dominance problem if your focus immediately jumps to the chewed-up bubblegum on the right...

If alby wants out then I call di...oh snap.
I should visit the site more often.
It's for the best though. My wife is already going to kill me when she finds out that I've joined two new leagues already this year for a grand total of 6.
I think I have a problem.
Anyways, good luck all!

That's why we have a poll for you to vote on! haha
You need to log in and vote on the right hand side. We still need four more owners to vote.
-Since the 2nd QB will be taken off, evaporating the "starter" spot and making that an added bench slot...yes?
-How do we feel with August 29th for the draft: time....?
Keepers will be due the 22nd

FYI:
I'm going off the W/L records from last season (Points For being the next tie-breaker) in determining the draft order:
Depending on how many keepers we decide to have (PLEASE VOTE!!!!), that many rounds will be non-snake. After the keeper rounds are finished, it will go into the normal snake format.
1. Left Texas Bombers
2. Team Chum's Bums
3. The Fighting Fintastics
4. Nikeball's Nuts
5. The Basketball 501s
6. Uh...Witten FTW
7. The Shocker
8. The Thigglers
9. U2 Sarajevo
10. Los Flaco's
11. Team LongYard
12. Bad Mamma Jammas

I'm fine with the extra bench slot (or do we have to put that to a vote too?)
Draft & keeper dates are fine by me as well - any time is good time to kick y'alls asses...

I'm really hopeful we don't have to put THAT to a vote
It seems like it'd be really beneficial to have that extra bench spot.

New poll for offensive bonus points just went up on the Spygate Freakout page!
(per-yard scoring passed with a 2/3 majority vote, 8-0...)

Hey UD, are we doing keepers in your league or what? That's the league I really want keepers in.

Yeah, we're keeping 2 (thank goodness it's not more - your roster is stacked!)
Go pick 'em - nobody can see who you chose until after the keeper date passes...
EDIT: Rice, Austin, Grant, Megatron, S-Jax, Cutler, Vernon, Jamaal - how the hell did you not win our Super Bowl???

Ouch, haha. You can't have that as an indictment of the league though. It's a straight up you problem
Still need 4 more votes to finish up the keeper situation...and the whereabouts of MavsWiLLHaVeRinGs

Oh no, I fully recognize it's on me that my team sucked so bad in the D-M league. Hopefully some shrewd drafting can turn the tide here this year.

That's what I'm wondering. Where did I finish in your league again?
Although I guess Megatron had a bit of a down year, and Cutler's bazillion interceptions made him a pretty big liability.

You basically finished in 4th place - you & I got eliminated by the two teams that advanced to the Super Bowl, but you lost to the champ... The only reason I placed ahead of you was because I scored more points in the regular season, but that means you get to draft one spot higher than me...
It's gonna be real hard to pick keepers out of that bunch!

There's a special level of Hell reserved for those of you who still haven't chosen how many keepers we should have... VOTE NOW, JUDAS!!!
Also, there's a new poll up in the Spygate Freakout league concerning offensive bonus points - those of you who haven't voted should do so ASAP (although your particular level of Hell is nothing special - just the old "homosexual Muslims who have abortions and vote Democrat" level...)

D-M Draft: Sun., Aug. 29 at 4:00 PM ET
Spygate Draft: Sat., Sep. 4 at 3:00 PM ET
I recently pushed the Spygate Freakout draft back an hour, which is why you got an email about it. Several people have responded, which added several more emails to your inbox. Oh, and just so you're not totally confused, I tend to talk about the draft time in central time since you're the only one who doesn't live in this timezone, but the times listed above are in ESPN's eastern timezone. Clear, or did I make it worse?

I recently set up a 3rd FF keeper league (semi-dynasty) with an auction draft and unlimited keepers (going into the 2011-2012 season...)
BGMaverick9, ribosoma and jthig32 have already joined and I sent an invite to FINtastic... Still waiting to hear back from Flacolaco, DirkFTW, tcat075, u2sarajevo and nikeball...
That leaves at least 2 openings - anyone who's interested should PM me and I'll give you the details...
Draft is Sat, Sep. 4 at 5:00 PM ET.

Left Texas just joined this league, so we're at 7/12 now...
Anyone else who wants to join should reply ASAP before it fills up!
