Calgary hires a heavy hitter
« on: March 16, 2017, 03:08:11 PM »
JF had to leave us due to time constraints.  Don't worry, Dad is still with us in Buffalo...

I am excited to introduce SlackJack as our new GM in Calgary!  I've been playing in BackYard for a couple seasons now and Jack has been the lifeblood of that league since I've been around.  Always wheeling and dealing trying to improve his squad.  He impressed me with his pragmatic trade offers.  I can't recall if we've come together on anything, but the back and forth has been fun.  Anyway, Jack is the #1 team in BY now, and is coming off a championship there last season (the first to win one over Tony...).  For the first time ever, I actually courted someone to fill a vacancy as I want to see a successful retread in Calgary. 

So, please join me in welcoming SlackJack to the league!  Best of luck to you. 

Cally - meet your future rival in the Canada division - haha.

- Jack I still need your Fantrax ID to get you access to your team.

We're gonna have a hell of a bidding war for top free agents between Calgary and Vegas the way Slack has been cleaning cap space! Should be interesting, haha

    Today at 10:41:23 AM
  • Daddy: Atlanta could have fleeced Minny and let them draft JJ #6 then still get Penix before Denver/LV
    Today at 10:42:24 AM

  • BayAreaBallers: I honestly wouldn't have minded pearsall but I saw him as a Rd 2 target not Rd 1. Great to see another former alumni join the niners.

  • Daddy: 49ers made a smart pick IMO.
    Today at 02:25:27 PM
  • Daddy: Their WRs need contracts and Deebo has been used a lot for a guy his size already.
    Today at 02:26:18 PM
  • Daddy: They cant and wont keep them all beyond this year.
    Today at 02:27:17 PM
  • Daddy: Plenty of Defense left. Only 9 guys on D got drafted last night. NONE of them will be 1st rd picks in LIVE. In fact i dont think a D player gets drafted at all in LIVE till round 3.

  • Daddy: There are still +220 picks to be made. So. Yeah.
    Today at 07:35:23 PM
  • Daddy: If you got ANY extra loot laying around. Pick #33 will definitely be a WR. Probably got to wager $5 to win $1 by now but the line was -400 last i looked.
    Today at 07:36:50 PM
  • Daddy: #33 + WR = $$$
