It's that time of year again FFL players
It's almost August so figured it's time to get the league started. First I want to give everyone in the league last year a chance to rejoin first then if there are spots open I will open it up to all the Geeks. Again this year we will all be putting up 5 cigars ($7+) and one really nice cigar ($12+). I'm requesting everyone send me the cigars this year, since we had someone not pay up at all last year. If cigars are not sent to me you run the risk of forfeiting games. Regular season winner gets the ($12) cigars. Winner of the playoffs gets everyone's 5 cigars and 2nd place of the playoffs gets the 5 cigars 1st place put up.
We will again try and do a Online Draft and Google Herf.

I'll take a spot and donate some sticks..I sure as hell won't win
And here I thought we were dealing with online gun sales.
John, I would like to be back in
If, for some reason, you have a regular drop, I would be willing to join in.
Lambeaughinis is back in :thumbsup:
Kent, I'll give it another stab - just so you can beat me in the playoffs again - by .05 points - LOL.
#metoo
Would love to get in if possible.
Count me back in as well. (Except it's Jeff, not Brian)
Sorry about that Jeff... Thanks for all those confirmed back in. If there are spots open sounds like we have the interest to fill them in.
Thanks everyone.
Im back in.
I'm in again for sure.
If there is room, I'm game
I will attempt to defend the title :biggrin: I'm in thanks again for running the league it's always a lot of fun! Can't wait!
We have 1 spot available and 4 guys interested in the spot.... When I get back from vacation I'll figure out the last spot. Random drawing.
Sounds good...........enjoy the vacation!!!!!
I am in another league and that draft is set for Sunday September 2 at 930 pm. If we can avoid that date and time I would appreciate it.
OK everyone.. I threw names in a hat and had my daughter pick for the new member and it ended up being Deener27 (David) He is set up in the league and we are ready to set up a draft Date and Time. Going to give everyone a couple of dates. Monday Aug 20th, Weds Aug 22th, Tuesday Sept 4th, Weds Sept 5th. All starting at 9EST. Sorry for those on east coast.
Thanks everyone

Sure get us east coast owners drunk and sleepy!
Any of those days will work for me
20th or 5th work best for me but could feasibly make any of these days work
Aug 20th for me - I work all the other nights listed but I can get someone to draft for me, so any night would work.
I'm pretty open. 9pm ET is perfect for me anyway. I'd prefer a Tues or Wed over Monday, but no issue with any of the dates.
I could make any of these work. 8 PM Chicago time is great. Thanks for letting me play.
QuoteDeener27 - 7/31/2018 8:33 PM I could make any of these work. 8 PM Chicago time is great. Thanks for letting me play.
Welcome to the league David! Now send us all your cigars!
Ok guys. Starting Sept 4 I switch to night shift. If we could do the draft sometime in August it would be better for me. If not ill just have to use auto draft.
I don't really have a conflict on any day of those, so whatever works for you guys.
I just can't do the 20th as I'll be in Chicago for a Pearl Jam concert :smoker:
I've gotten feed back from 11 of you so far... The most popular date to draft is Sept 4th or 5th. Some have to work 2nd shift that week so they can't make it. I was curious if everyone would be available on Labor Day evening on the 3rd? Same time as mentioned 9ET?
Thanks, John
Also fyi... i think last years draft was over in under 1.5 hours.

That is also a possibility
Yes. I could do it labor day.
I definitely can't do Labor Day. It's opening night FSU vs VT! (And I'm either going to the game or a viewing party)
The 3rd does work for me...........actually have that night off - but - if we don't draft on that night I'm sure I can fill the hours with cigars and plenty of adult beverages.
I'm doing 2 fantasy drafts on the 3rd won't work for me either...
OK so far there isn't a date that atleast 2 can't make the draft so i'm going to try 2 more days earlier in August and we'll see... please respond ASAP..
Aug 15th and Aug 23rd... getting closer to less time to prepare and running the risk of players getting injured after you draft them with preseason.
If we don't get a better result i'm going to set for Sept 5 to give all the preseason to be completed.
Im good with all 3 dates.

15th, 23rd or the 5th work for me.
15th is good for me as well............
I'd prefer sept 5th but the 23rd is fine with me as well if it works better for others :thumbsup:
I am on vacation during the August dates, so no go for me. I can make Sept. 3-5, after 8pm cst so I can close the shop.
Alright Since no date works for everyone. I'm going to go with one of the original dates Sept 5th. 8pm CST.
This will give everyone the maximum amount of time to prepare and Preseason is over so all injuries should be known.
Remember all cigars need to be sent to me.
Please set your draft order just in case you are running late or having issues. Also test your ability to draft.
Thanks
Thanks John. I will get smokes out ASAP and draft should be fine for me.

I hope whoever never payed up last year is not allowed in this year.
I'll be there on the 5th. I'll definitely get my cigars sent in ASAP, but I'm glad I have a little wiggle room. Only because I didn't want to send the exact same cigars as last year. I don't have a ton of cigars that meet the requirements, so this gives me a little time to order something new and get them back out to you. Looking forward to a better season this year... although I probably won't sneak past anyone with the Jags defense this year, lmao.
Awesome John I'll get the sticks out in the next week or so, still unpacking fuggin boxes from the move but got my humidor plugged in of course :biggrin:

Hey John. Package went out today. I have the tracking number if you need it.

Is that a PPR league or do you get a 1 point for every 5 yards. Those are some really high scores... I think Our top score was 140 something.
PPR and our defense starts with 30
Here are the cigars from Kerry, Jeff, and Jason. Thanks for getting your cigars in and for the hitchhikers as well.
BewareDaPenguins congrats again on winning the regular season. If its cool I'll wait to see where you end up in the playoffs before I send any cigars your way.
Thanks,

What a wild season!! I do it for the roller coaster ride that is fantasy football! I love this league it's super competitive but very laid back so it's more fun then some of my other leagues! Kareem Hunt, smh what a huge shock the video was!! I hate when fantasy stuff rides on such randomness like that and injuries etc, nobody wants to win that way, it's best when everyone is at full strength and just let the chips fall!
Lots of football left tho!!! Good luck to all I always have fun in this league like I said it's laid back and great people!!! :smoker:

.............Mostly DOWN................. :cry:
Mostly down for me :loser:
missed the playoffs by this much... :angry: :shy:
Another great season is coming to a close soon, and I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who participated I love this league because of the people who play in it, and it's always enjoyable, yes even when I lose I still have fun because I know this is a great group of geeks and it's about having fun!! Michael good luck in the championship my friend! The 1st geek to send me a welcome bomb so many years ago lol, we met in the finals and I wish you the best of luck!! (Unless it's Henry who I dropped a few weeks ago) other then that best of luck lol! In all seriousness again I play in 3-4 money leagues that are very stressful but it's great to play in a casual league with good people win or lose man honesty!
Great season guys. Good luck Adam! I snuck in the playoffs the last week, I was on the outside looking in. Then Henry went OFF and carried me for 2 weeks. Good thing, because Brees has not been helping me out much and Melvin Gordon was injured, so I would have been done.
Adam, congrats again. Back to back champ. I will get all the winnings out soon.
Congrats Adam
I Just couldn't get over the .500 barrier
Way to go Adam! I gave it a run but you were just too much. Congrats, and thanks John for running this thing! Always great.
Much thanks from everyone!! What a great year!! Wild! Back to back is crazy there's so much luck involved, I stayed healthy and didn't lose any big guns man I had that going all year. Again this is such an enjoyable league cuz it's a great bunch of guys! Already looking forward to next year man I can't wait I love fantasy football :smoker: John much thanks for hosting as always you do a great job of lining everything up flawlessly!
Congrats Adam. Great season.
Cigars should arrive tomorrow. Send a PM to both of you with the tracking#
The sticks have landed safely! Some amazing sticks in here man, some awesome geekism on full display :Smoker: Here's the full spread! John thanks for running the league again it's always a blast! Looking forward to next season gentlemen! In the process of leaving everyone Feedback for the sticks if I forgot someone shoot me a PM!!
Congrats again, I will do everything in my power to not allow you to 3peat next year. :biggrin:
Got my fiver, thanks!
