Finally! Can you believe it? It's almost August and the excitement is back in the air! The players and the owenrs came to an agreement JUST in time to avoid a delayed or, God forbid, cancelled season.
Our peskey Lions finished 2010 with a nice little winning streak and expectations for this season are much higher than they have been in years. The next few weeks will be exciting as we find out which new players will be joining the squad.
With that, I’d like to welcome you to the 2011 W.T.F Fantasy Football League. We’re heading into year 3 and are seeing the same old, happy faces. As your commish, I'd like to apologize for a fairly boring end to our League last year. I stopped updating the blog, the weekly emails failed to go out, and the winners weren't acknowledged in a League recap email in a timely manner like they should have been. This year, I'm committed to making this the best fantasy football league you will be a part of in 2011. Weekly emails, updated blog, trash talk, viewing partys, etc. This season will be a good one.
The draft date has been set and will be held on Saturday, August 27th. The location is the same...Macomb Twp. Come hungry. Food and beverages will be provided.
This will again be an AUCTION style draft. Everyone has some experience now with format, but if you can't remember how things work, see above to refresh your memory.
The entry fee for this league is $50 and is due on draft day. You can make 10 moves (add free agents/drop players, make a trade, etc) free of charge. Each move after will incur a $2 charge, which will be collected at the end of the season and placed in the pot for payouts.
We all want this to be a fun and competitive league. Therefore, if you fail to start a full lineup of players, you will be fined $10, which will go into the pot towards payouts. For example, you will be fined if you forget to change your lineup and your player is on a bye. You’ll be fined if it’s been known that a player is injured and you start him anyways. You WILL NOT be fined, however, if it’s a game time decision and the player ends up sitting. If you find you are unable to change your starters, call or email the Commissioner to make the changes for you.
Some of you are still owed money from your winnings last year. You will be paid out on draft day. There are a few of you that owe the league money and that will be due on draft day. Any questions related to the final payouts from 2010 should come to the commish.
I’m looking forward to a great year! Good luck to everyone and get out there to buy your magazines!
