August 1, 20233 yr Aw shit here we go again. A thread for all fantasy related discussion! For the paid DVDVR League, I just renewed it so you should have gotten an email. I can't do my usual "welcome" message as they took away the message board and the "Live Chat" doesn't work. But the only change for the league is what I mentioned last year - I took away a bench spot so we are back to the roster sizes we were before the pandemic. IR spot remains, no other changes. If you played last year and don't want to this year, just let me know and I'll remove you/find a replacement.
August 25, 20233 yr Author I send so many emails and its in the league notes, just sign in to yahoo smh also update your email in yahoo if its not right as sometimes that is the easiest way to reach out to/fuss at people. More importantly, I haven't heard from "Big Z" aka Matt (I think) and he hasn't logged into DVDVR since last October, so I don't know if he is still around or not. So I may need a replacement, I'm going to give him another week but if anyone currently not in the league may be interested let me know just so I have a backup. $25 is the amount to play, just to keep people honest 🙂

August 25, 20233 yr Author Elsalvajeloco is on my bad list still since I have the memory of an elephant but I'd be willing to give him another chance if Matt is not coming back.
August 25, 20233 yr I know Matt's Twitter account if you want to stalk him there (he at least did some this month there)

August 26, 20233 yr I'm down to play if there's an opening, but El responded first so I'll defer to him. I could use the distraction though, given the impending job loss unless I find another role within my company.
August 29, 20233 yr Someone in my fantasy league drafted Antonio Brown. Someone else drafted Kyler Murray. I'm more likely to play than either of them.
August 29, 20233 yr Author Matt showed up and Brent got in touch so all the spots are spoken for in the DVDVR Pay League. Ready for another exciting season!
August 29, 20233 yr When's the draft? Can we do it late on Labor day? On a weekday, please make it at least 6 p.m. mtn, because I currently have a 75 mile commute and dont get home til at least 5:30. . .

September 1, 20233 yr Author I always have the draft the same day (the Tuesday before the first game) and late-ish but not so late it runs into Phil's bedtime. I just like to be consistent, plus we learned in the early years its impossible to find a time that all 12 people think is perfect. One year the draft was when I was working myself but I still kept it there as it didn't seem fair to change the draft time just for my own benefit (I probably still won that year anyway). On the plus side, the auto-draft is sooo much better now then it was in the old days. In my job's ESPN league, the one team that autodrafted has one of the best teams in the league. So while I know we all prefer to be at the draft, its not the "kiss of death" it used to be to miss it. But I hope everyone can be there!

September 1, 20233 yr For the record - I am working from home Wednesday so if you needed to push back a little it will be fine with me
September 1, 20233 yr Author Wouldn't really be fair to change the draft time four days before the draft, if people logged in a month ago when the league was created and asked then, it would have given me time to give everyone enough heads up about the change. Just food for thought for next year 🙂
