Suggestion/ Reccommendation
« on: August 21, 2018, 10:34:52 PM »
We all know PROFSL isn't like it once was. I have a hard time believing we will find active GM's to fill the vacant teams. I recommend we shrink the league.......put all the vacant players into the FA pool and let us drop 3 players and have a supplemental draft of 3 rounds. Worry about the entry draft later.

If we allow the league to shrink........there will be a very good pool of good players. This league would still be alive......and VERY competitive........IMO. Let's get some thoughts and feed back as the season is fast approaching...... :toth: :toth:

It's not a bad idea, but I agree with Jonathan for the time being. I want to try a little bit of recruiting first.

Happy to hear what other owners think.

While we are waiting for the GM's to check-in and vacancies to be filled we should update this seasons timeline re: the draft, waiver-free, and free-agency. Set some hard dates starting with the draft and auto-pick for any no-shows. Let's get it in gear.

If you need to manage an owned league team I could do it until you find a manager.

Always willing to step up, I love it. We'll see how it goes. I am still in the process of recruiting.

If anyone knows people who would be a quality fantasy hockey GM, talk to them about signing up for Backyard!

    May 21, 2024, 10:00:25 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: or are they still ours
    May 21, 2024, 10:00:28 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: that part i get
    May 21, 2024, 10:00:51 PM
  • Daddy: The rosters are set by a prior date not todays or tomorrows
    May 21, 2024, 10:00:53 PM
  • Daddy: If someone appears on your roster its because they are your player
    May 21, 2024, 10:01:21 PM
  • Daddy: Regardless of who they start the new season with.
    May 21, 2024, 10:01:40 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: are we allowed to post drops now or is that at a different time
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:42 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: last question
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:46 PM
  • Daddy: Only the newest NBA LIVE rosters are unknown as we will go with the newest version for the upcoming 2024/25 season.
    May 21, 2024, 10:02:54 PM
  • Daddy: NHL LIVE you must wait.
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:15 PM
  • Daddy: It doesnt start till 6/1
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:28 PM
  • Daddy: We just work fast ;)
    May 21, 2024, 10:03:45 PM
  • Daddy: Looks like its ready but the SS isnt finished and we cant do transactions till we finish.
    May 21, 2024, 10:04:25 PM
  • Daddy: Its not like the others. Its got NHL/AHL and formulas need perfected.
    May 21, 2024, 10:04:56 PM
  • Daddy: A lot of LIVE GMs came after i had won in football and built a monster in baseball. Many of you weren't there for the start. Like STLBlues. Like Braves. So you talk smack to the old Man (me).
    May 21, 2024, 10:09:00 PM
  • Daddy: I cannot wait to start these virgin leagues. So that (you too BAB) can get your deserved foots from day one. :)
    May 21, 2024, 10:10:30 PM
  • Daddy: Size 13 (lubricant included sponsored by *Acme Bigfoot Jelly Inc)
    May 21, 2024, 10:12:47 PM
  • Brent: I don't know Hockey, but NHL Live sounds good.  I probably shouldn't have left FGM as I have a little more time than I thought after leaving a bunch of other leagues.
    May 21, 2024, 10:38:24 PM
  • STLBlues91: Think there are 3 more teams left until NHL gets filled up
    May 21, 2024, 10:40:10 PM
  • Daddy: Four (4) NY Islanders >> Nashville Predators >> Ottawa Senators >> LA Kings
    May 21, 2024, 10:50:47 PM
  • Daddy: They each had owners who uncommitted two of them went to other sites to try to copy the concept. Problem is no Daddy, no staff,  no LIVE.
    May 21, 2024, 10:52:54 PM
  • Daddy: Nobody on Earth does hockey like we are about to do it. Its a shame 28 teams are gone without most of the true profsl hockey guys signing up. That's a huge loss. For them.
    May 21, 2024, 10:54:45 PM
  • Daddy: If you love hockey and you love dynasty and you arent in LIVE than you must hate me or competition more than you love the others. Which is petty & not worth our efforts anyway.
    May 21, 2024, 10:56:10 PM
  • Daddy: NHL LIVE Spreadsheet [link] should be available to be seen.
    May 21, 2024, 11:35:31 PM
  • Daddy: @Brent we sincerely hope that you do join as a HOF level dynasty GM. The rules and a lot of format carry over from one LIVE league to another.
    May 21, 2024, 11:56:46 PM
  • Daddy: We believe that even if you don't know a sport well, we provide the material, and enough guidance advice that any disadvantages are minimized. Hockey is one of the greatest sports of all time.

  • ldsjayhawk: Brent should I put you on the waiting list for the next opening?
    Yesterday at 10:53:35 AM

    Yesterday at 05:49:02 PM
  • Daddy: Ok. You know you can cut anyone you want and with FROZEN FRENZY as well as the draft we all have a ton of moves to make.
    Yesterday at 06:11:32 PM
  • Daddy: Hockey players don't make what football, basketball, baseball players make. The cap is lower than other LIVE leagues.
    Yesterday at 06:13:00 PM
  • Daddy: NFL Teams in OTAs. Hockey & Baseball Drafts approach
    Yesterday at 06:14:26 PM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah when we were filling rosters we just included everyone we could since they can be cut. I will be cutting a chunk of guys once we start up
    Yesterday at 06:14:45 PM
  • Daddy: Trading too. Not just cutting. Virgin teams need diversified. Ive seen owners swap half of they're starting players to get diversified.
    Yesterday at 06:16:51 PM
