cbfalcon 824 Posted November 27, 2017 If we combine all 30 of Gary's players, he still loses to Ed's starters by 10-20 points. So as far as I'm concerned, lets just enter his highest projected lineup for next week and start recruiting for the Beer and Urine Pool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gocolts 300 Posted November 28, 2017 There are holes in your post. For example, even if you were unable to changeout Shepard, you could still have put in the remainder of your lineup for Sunday. And while you made lineup changes to bye week players last week, Im not sure why you left in a running back named Cunningham instead of starting Woodhead and Blount. But its all fine. I echo the words of Gypsys post. We all have real lives with real drama. Message boards and fantasy football leagues are supposed to be escapes from that real life, as opposed to being something that adds another layer of heft. And while its true of all of us in particular moments, it seems being in this league has consistently been quite the burden on you. Consider it lifted and breathe a sigh of relief. The El Padrinos franchise will still hold you close to its bosom should you require warmth during the cold and unforgiving winters to come. Assume all you need to get past this. I am a POS for dropping the ball on this. MY FAULT I desperately wanted to quit this year, but was worried I would ruin the league. I will pay another years fees, if you think that will help someone take over this team. I am sorry. You have done everything for me and I sucks ass. I could sit here and list off excuses. None of it really matters, I am sure nobody wants to hear this shtt. Sorry guys, I suck ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted November 28, 2017 We should realign divisions anyways. One division in particular has been getting a free ride for some time now. I'm okay with that. How many teams are we losing? we should do divisions by what region of the country people live in I am definitely in the same division as Kunt (same state) Throw the records out (a category I dominate in). Lets look at all time regular season points, which isn't affected by who you face. Montana Division Teams: 1st (that was a given), 2nd, 10, 12. The Elgay Division Teams: 4, 7, 9, and 11. Marina Division Teams: 3, 5, 6, 8. So what we learn is the following: - The Montana Division have been extremely unfair to Ed and Gary. Even with all of the strength, sex appeal, and power afforded to the El Padrino, it's unclear if even I could succeed if forced to reckon with The El Padrino for a decade plus. But then we also force Ed and Gary to deal with the second most powerful franchise in our league's history? - The Elgay division is clearly the weakest in our league's history. The best at nothing, the worst at almost everything, and very little style. - The very average Marino Division was extremely powerful back when Kuntulu was in his prime. The division has dipped in recent years as the Kunts and Narcs have feuded, but there is hope for a revival. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like 12... you have to work to get a decent team. The Narc is right. I'm in a longtime 10 team league, and everyone is solid enough at every position. The result is almost no trading and a glut of 7-6 or 6-7 teams every year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We aren't....Besides.....if 2 teams got to pick up 2 of every teams best 8 players, they'd be more loaded with depth than any of the rest of us. We've done this before. The model has been created and it worked. It was just 3-4 years ago. One of the teams even won a couple titles already. Yeah, these 2 rosters are thin, but there are some legit players in there, and if they are willing to trade away some QB depth they can get a few more chips.

cbfalcon 824 Posted November 29, 2017 The protect 5 players idea is horrible.You guys obviously haven't looked at it deeply, but if we allow these 2 teams to grab the 6th and 8th best players off of all of our rosters, they immediately become the league favorites for the next 5 years.. Examples of possible non top 5 players on rosters just from Neck, Med, and I's rosters: Padrino: JGraham, Montgomery/Jones/Williams, ACooper, DMurray Neck: McCoy, Diggs, CDavis, DThomas, Dez Med: JHoward, Engram, AJeffrey, Ju Ju Poop Schuster Now add in another 20 or so players of that level plus Luck, Ryan, Goff, Brees, Hilton, Shep, Olsen, Baldwin, Thielen, Cupp, Cohen, etc..........and those teams are monsters that are set up to win it all now and dominate for years to come. I'm against the concept all together, but if people are hell bent on it, we need to be able to protect something like our top 15 players. The new owners should expect to pull stars/starters off of our rosters, but this would at least allow them to grab some depth type guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted November 29, 2017 I'm open to selling my franchise to one of the new owners, at which point I'd take over one of the two new teams. The price has to be right though. You are immediately in line to win all prize money in the coming seasons, then there is the prestige of owning the greatest franchise in history, and if you run it correctly, you can sell it yourself in 5 or so years.
