2024-25 HFBoards Yahoo Fantasy Premier Keeper League - Draft Sun Sept 29th 6pm PST

[archangel2]

I have an idea where I will be around the time we draft. Can we draft at around 4pm or 5pm on the date in question

 

[CRDragon]

I would prefer before Sept 30. I'm traveling on Oct 1.

My vote for draft time is Monday, Oct. 4. Or the following Sunday night (Oct. 10) but that's only 2 days before the season.

Who do we like more?

Who do we like more?

Oct 10th is Thanksgiving which is definitely a no go. My travel days are Oct 1, 5, and 8. I can probably make any other day work as I will be 4 hours in the future on vacation.

Good news is I only have to plan for 6 rounds

I would vote for October 4.

Btw, I was going to type it after my response to CaptainBo and StrictlyCommercial.

Fedz won by a close vote, so guys please welcome our new GM! @Fedz

 

[CRDragon]

There were also a couple of calls for expansion.....something to think about again? Are we in a good position to do that?

Thanks for invite! I’m excited to join a league that has been around for a very long time. Feel free to email me at any time ([email protected]) to introduce yourself or talk trade. I am quick to respond. I am definitely open for business.

As for the draft; I think Monday October 4th may be a bit soon to draft. However, I wholeheartedly agree with @StrictlyCommercial, thanksgiving is not an option.

 

[CRDragon]

How about Sunday October 3 5pm? Workday in the late afternoon would be tough.

 

[StrictlyCommercial]

Saturday October 9th would be a good day for me if we are wanting a weekend close to the start of the season.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

Checking in. Any time aside from Friday Nights is good for me.

 

[nameless1]

I probably want to draft in late September...
Because I will probably be in the thick of things by October...
But I will let you guys know once my schedule is set.
I can always just autodraft if the majority of the people want to draft in October.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Sept 30th fine by me.

IF we expand.I say we reset the league

No resets, I don't think it makes sense for a keeper league to reset.

 

[Canucker]

I’m good with expansion, don’t like the idea of a reset.

[BrockH]

I think the problem is I live in Toronto. I have inherited the Maple Leafs curse.

 

[nameless1]

My schedule is set.
I am good for all September after 5 pm.
I am a bit iffy for October though...
So hopefully...
We can draft in September.
I can always autodraft if people prefers an October draft date.

If anyone is looking to upgrade keepers, I have Malkin, Barrie and Letang available for picks. Will move Nedeljkovic, Byfield (rookie), Mike Smith and Tom Wilson as well.

 

[archangel2]

I want to make a motion and I already know who wont like it

We have a keeper rule--I am in another league that has a 5 year rule for keepers--after 5 years the player goes back into the draft--regardless if the team holding him actually drafted him

My motion is that we adapt a similier idea where a player can be a keeper for the amount of time the league currently uses but if player is traded--it does reset his keeper status to zero--I have a list of managers who do not like the idea because they trade players amongst themselves once the real good player maxes out or has one year left as being able to be a keeper-- I already know I will lose the idea--but I just want to see if I am right about what managers do not like the idea

 

[Canucker]

I'm not sure I fully understand what you are detailing, but I'm pretty happy with our current system. With that, I'm taking offers on my long term keepers so I don't lose them...lol

 

[CRDragon]

Hey sorry guys I've been really swamped from work, is Sept 30th evening around 8pm PST a good time for everyone to draft?
Or any Sundays Oct 3 /10 late afternoon?

 

[Canucker]

I’m good with any of those days/times.

 

[StrictlyCommercial]

10th no, 30th or 3rd yes
