How about just moving the bench down to 6 and keeping the IR? Right now the majority seems to favor a random draft. If we did a last to first draft order this would be it (regular season):

Pork Chop Express
Verulanium Saints
Southron Leviathan Waste
WHARF RATS (Gators)
Screaming Bunnies
Revelstone Lordsfire
Team Wiebe
NM Sandgorgons
Team Brinn
TAMPA BAY THUNDERCRUNCH

I really don't care either way. Just give me the rules. As long as everyone plays by the same set and they're not changed midstream, I'll win anyway! ;)

And yes, I'm still holding a grudge against Kinslaughterer because of the year I drafted two running QB's and then he goes and changes the scoring rules for QB's after the draft. As a matter of fact, that was such a shitty thing to do that I'm glad he's gone as the commish!
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

No rules will be changed now, or after the draft. So far, it appears that 5-1 favor a random draft--it will stay that way unless I hear differently by the end of tonight. I may change the bench to 6--that will be the only team setting change.

I managed to squeak by Damelon this week on the literal last offensive play of the game right before the Patriots went into the victory formation Monday night.

A 9 yard run by BGE right before the 2 minute warning gave the one point more that I needed to get the one point win over the much respected Revelstone Lordsfire Monday night.

Just like my Saints and LSU Tigers, I had just enough on the field to win the match.

Now hopefully this is something to build on...

Another one point squeaker for victory that was up in the air until the last possession Monday night.

I am begining to feel like Les Miles.

It is with a heavy heart that I announce this will be my last year owning a fantasy football team. The league just issued me a lifetime ban from the pseudo-sport. Apparently my ownership has jeopardized the health of several of the NFL's top players, like Tony Romo, Michael Vick, Pierre Thomas, Joseph Addai, and others. They also mentioned the years LaDainian Tomlinson was on my team were the worst years of his career. The NFL feels I am in large part to blame for this year's drastic loss of ticket and merchandise sales.

Anyway, it was fun while it lasted.

Hey, my team has tanked so badly I can even see straight---Ryan Grant's injury was a precursor to DOOM! I can no longer defend last year's championship and will have to play spoiler from now on! :biggrin:

The Watcher's 2 week Championship Game has been set! AND this marks the first time a non-Watcher has been in the Championship, in fact it's the first time 2 non-Watchers made it (and we only have 2 non-Watchers :screwy: ).

Championship: Brinn's friend Christina (Team Wiebe) v. my friend Mike (WHARF RATS)

3rd place: Team Brinn v. Southron Waste Leviathan (jelerak)

Good luck everyone!!

2011!!! Here we go!!!

Did my first quick mock draft and oddly enough everything sort of looks the same. Big difference on where everyone's ended up though...Does Kevin Kolb turn Larry Fitzgerald back into superstar status? Why is everyone already ranking Foster over AP? Is Minnesota better or worse with McNabb and without Rice, is there anyone to throw to Rice in Seattle? Who the hell is this Daniel Thomas guy in Miami now that Ronnie and Ricky have flown the coop? Can anybody other than the injury prone Reggie Bush back him up? Will Favre end up on Miami? PLEASE STAY RETIRED BRETT!!!! Julio Jones and Mark Ingram are some good looking rookies, do they have what it takes. These questions and many more will be answered once the Watchers reform and draft!!! 3 have checked in, let's hear from the rest!

Well I figured that's what you'd want *turns green with envy* :fim: but thought you'd list those on the league page. Beware the Sandgorgons this year--look at my odd year history--yes my team totally falls apart on even years--but it just get better and better on odd years!!!!

Other than Vick, I don't remember who is on my team.
