0 Subject: 2008 Poli Football League

Posted by: taxman - [30741123] Sun, Aug 03, 2008, 02:44

To summarize, I volunteered to handle waiver claims for 2008, MITH has resigned from the league, no one has stepped fwd to commish for 2008, only 3 or 4 returning managers have checked in.

Obvious question...will there be a 2008 Poli Football keeper league? Now would be the time to make that call.

I kinda had my eye on Mendenhall too. Tho I had no feel that he would go that round.

Chris Johnson was my real target of all the rookie RB's and you can't have them all. I watched highlights of them all on U-tube and CJ and Slaton impressed me most far and away. Then again I am always tempted by the great runner whose coaching staff feels can't stand the rigors of being an every down back.

"I kinda had my eye on Mendenhall too. Tho I had no feel that he would go that round."

You mean me asking you on the phone if he was still available at the end of round 1 didn't clue you in that he might not make it through round 2?

Getting WR2 production out of the TE slot was worth more than the risk of a rookie so I wasn't gonna pass on Tony Gonzalez for the second or third rookie RB on my wish list.

B7 doesn't have his VM set up so tho I called...

with me going out of town for the weekend tomorrow morning, there's definitely no way i'm getting our players in before the weekend, especially since i have to do that with another league i commish.

MBJ - do you want me to transfer (temporary, or otherwise) commish powers to you so you can do it?

Groovy - just tell me what and when and I'll get on it. Wife's kin are coming for the weekend, so a time-consuming project would great. "Yeah, I'd like to see some more photos of Uncle Augie, but I really got some work to do..." wandering off....

it can probably be knocked out in an hour, maybe two...

you can set it up where you enter round by round, or one team at a time.

i'll hand over the reins shortly, so you can scope it.

Bili

I just talked to Boikin and he does not have Clyde's pick. Go ahead and get Clyde's pick, whoever has been contacting him.

He does have Taxman and Tree's however.

Boikin expressed a desire to wait on his last pick till tomorrow. Just a thot tho...this will mean MBJ can't load the results into the Yahoo site immediately, which is irritating.

I'd prefer he pick now. See post 99.

If a major RB breaks his leg tonight, he has gained a large advantage.

I'm not going to insist, but it would avoid potential disgruntlement.

Mine looks good, MBJ. That was quick! Thanks for entering those. I think. The best thing I can say is I like my defense. Why I thought drafting SeaChicken RBs was a good idea, I have no idea.
