TR BBQ League 2011

Wed Aug 10, 2011 5:00 pm

I've been asked to announce the formation of the annual BBQ fantasy football league. As I've never been to the BBQ, I don't consider myself qualified to be the commissioner and Stiffie would rather be just a participant. Accordingly, someone BBQ-qualified needs to step up and take on the charge of creating the league and running it. Applications for same (let's be honest, first to say yes has the job) to be posted here.
What we have today is way too much pluribus and not enough unum.

I'll do it, but only if nobody else wants to - I am already the commish of four or five other leagues.

Potential members from memory:

1. Me
2. My wife
3. My bro-in-law (he was at the BBQ's when they were at my house)
4. IdaStiffie
5. Dposcorp
6. Berserkben
7. Prime1
8. Damage
9. Z-Man?
10. Shoes?

Who else wants to play?

Cool......check with Z man.........and shoes.....not sure who else. We may have to go 8 team but that would suck.

Kevin can be a honorary BBQ or Captain Ned. I like smacking down other mods / current former admins.

Stiffie, any ideas?

It appears Idastiffie was the commish of this league last year.
Let's make sure he doesn't want to renew the league from last year before we/I start a new one...

He's already told me during the Keeper league transfer that he doesn't want to do it this year.

OK - if I make the league - I want to mix up the rules a bit.
Maybe 2 QB's? (esp. if it's only 8 teams) Flex spot? .5 points per reception? return yards? three week playoffs?

OK Z-Man has offically declined to take part this year.

We just need Stiffie to sign in and we will have our 8 teams.

Yep - it's all set.

I closed the registration when we had our 8 players - I mixed up the rules as stated before - I think the 8 teams will be best for this format.
