i think this will be the 3rd or 4th year that i've started this league and we haven't had any prize for the winner, but once the league is full, if that's what everyone wants to do, that's cool with me.

I am back, and to mix things up a bit, I have to decided to be The Globex Corporation this year, instead of The Fighting Hellfish. Thanks for running this every year. It's a lot of fun

Also, was there a consensus on whether or not to risk a boot like ReleaseMe... suggested?

rhinomagic

Dammit!

I've been in the league the last two seasons and I missed this one. Any chance a spot will open up?

Thanks. it was time for a change. Plus, i was The Globex Corporation in a new league last year, and finished 2nd, winning about $1000. That league fell apart, the commissioner was busted cheating, and I have only collected $230 of the $1000. So I didn't want the Globex Corp team to die.

that sucks. i would be super pissed (as i would guess you are).

most of the money leagues i have been in are for small money ($25-50 entry fee) and we have yet to have a year go by where we were able to collect from everyone. it is kind of pathetic really that 10-12 people that all have decent paying jobs and like the competition of fantasy sports can't manage to cough up the entry fee.

rhinomagic

Given that we are now an expansion team, the chin musicians would like to petition the Commissioner to set an expansion draft prior to the league draft on March 9.

It's how the major leagues do it.

Thanks for letting me and Jen in!

So are we now a 16-team league or was another league set up? My stupid firewall at work won't let me access my fantasy stuff.
