jgcrawfish 232 Posted May 8, 2009 jgcrawfishKSB2424 White Wonder Cuse9 I beg your patience. We will be deciding soon. Speaking of which . . . IBL VETS - Get to the Danzone, and let's talk! Please. not pushin' Dan...just remindin' (and maybe nudgin') :wink: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Moz 69 Posted May 8, 2009 dear 2008 and former ibl teammates,i humbly apologize for not being a very good teammate in 2008 and in previous years. I could and should have done more to help my fellow teammates have better teams. perhaps if i had done this we would have more than just one championship. i apologize as well for being sometimes being an overly selfish player and not being more respective of my fellow teammates. i would like the opportunity to have one more chance to be a player in on the FFToday team. I feel i have earned the right to one more chance based on my performance as well as the passion and dedication i have showed to this site for the past 6 years. i will be more diligent in my pursuits and gear my efforts in assisting everyone having a better team. as opposed to just worrying about myself for the most part. i ask that you give me one season to prove that i have changed. if i stray from the course, please feel free to remove after or even during the season. all i can do is ask. but again i honestly think i truly deserve a second chance. i appreciate any consideration. p.s. i would like the chance to call each and every 2008 teammate in person and apologize as well. i think it's too easy to get the wrong impression of someone over the internet and it's the manly thing to do after i spent so much time here contributing over the years. if anyone is interested, please e-mail me or post a number where you can be reached. thanks. sincerely, mike taylor clash of the titans mikejtaylor@charter.net 205-413-6719 Mike FWIW -- I accept your apology. But my opinion remains consistent that you do not belong in the league next season. Your were the commish whether you wanted the slot or not you signed up for it. If you knew you wouldn't be around there should have been an email or a post sayin g- Hey i can't commish I just got a lot going on - something like that - unless I am wrong there was nothing - you just simply stopped comming around and Dan stepped up and filed the void. While there is no doubting at all that you field a very good team every season - I don't believe that's enough to warrant you being allowed back next season. After a year off an you want to throw back in maybe. - JUST MY OPINIONS HERE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robb 71 Posted May 9, 2009 hey Robb, you doing your defenses by matchup thing again this year??? Hey Crawfish....you betcha I am doing it again. It's a long standing effort I have participated in and updated every year. Probably will be July, towards the end, to get it up. Will take an assessment of teams offense strength and that takes a game or two in preseason. Thanks for asking.

robb 71 Posted May 10, 2009 I went to TDZ just now and didn't see anything more current than January 2009. Am I missing something? Is there a new site? New password needed? Can I "watch" even if I don't play? Thanks guys!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kilroy 0 Posted May 10, 2009 Just chiming in again. I'd like to be back this year, and big to both Dan and Fumbleweed for keeping constant updates throughout the season in 2008. As for Clash - I mentioned at TDZ a while back I don't have an issue with him being back. And I know it wasn't some big amount of cash, but it was a solid move on his part to cover the $12 cost for FFT participating in this last year. I think it should be left up to the vets that have been around as to wether he's back or not. I would say the only thing I'd mention to him - during the draft try not to get so picky about wanting teammates to trade with you so you can get "your guy" after already drafting yourself a pretty darn good team to begin with.

fanfootballtn 33 Posted May 10, 2009 Throw my name in the league Dan. I have won 7 championships on yahoo. You can look at my profile as it is the same name on here. Five of the championships are posted on that name and 2 others on the 1st year I played. I can provide that name in addition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Little Big Head 6 Posted May 10, 2009 what is the time frame for the drafting process? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Know Doubt 0 Posted May 10, 2009 what is the time frame for the drafting process? I think it's like 12 hours but you're not supposed to 'milk' the clock. I think they might even turn it 'off' at nite for a certain amount of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Little Big Head 6 Posted May 10, 2009 I think it's like 12 hours but you're not supposed to 'milk' the clock. I think they might even turn it 'off' at nite for a certain amount of time. thanks. I actually meant for the entire series of drafts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Know Doubt 0 Posted May 10, 2009 Drafts are named A, B, C, D and E A & B start Monday morning usually towards the end of or mid July. B & C start the next Monday. E starts the next Monday. Sometimes they run neck and neck and sometimes say A can be two-three rounds ahead of B. The 'trick' is that say you're in Draft C and you see "your guy" falling in draft B, I mean like two rounds farther without you reaching for him. That's when you trade say your 7th for a guys 8th to make sure you get "your guy". Also if you are in C and your guy gets taken like 3 spots ahead of you like at #32, you could possibly trade 'down' into D if that player is still available in that draft at #38 or the like. I watched this and the "new" IBL2 thingy last year because I read the recruiting post and followed the links. It is absolutely wild. People trading in and out of drafts and just like wow, man. This is a really wild league and if we didn't have a baby due any minute I'd have my irons in the fire to try and make the team. The IBL1 were talking so much smack on the draft message boards, it was a blast just to be a spectator let alone be in IT!!! hth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moz has asked me about it a couple of times but im in so many dynasty leagues that i wasnt sure if id have the time which is why i wanted to know about the specific drafting times. As in when the first draft starts to when the last draft ends. Im considering dropping a couple of redrafts, and at least one of my dynasty leagues looks to be folding so i might have room afterall. Is there a forum to go to that talks about all things IBL? thought i saw thedanzone mentioned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cuse9 128 Posted May 11, 2009 No. But soon. I promise.

I believe I'm the last one one the list to speak up, so my assumption is that brown nosing a fine, upstanding quality individual like Dan won't help me anyway, even if he does know that I'm a fellow Steelers fan.
