Here is an updated cross reference. Jason is the only new manager but we had a few team name changes.

No, no one has to do anything. I went through this morning and set the draft order and put all of the keepers in for each team in the round they are valued at. So for instance in your case, Laurent Robinson will not show as an available player, but when it comes to your pick in round 14 it will automatically draft Laurent Robinson for you.

So not only will people who are live drafting need to know who was taken as keepers for strategic reasons, but also your picks are going to come up quicker in certain rounds since you will not be waiting for a person to think through their pick and use the allotted time.

That's great; thanks.  And thank you for all your efforts in putting this together.

Not only does he take the time to put all of this together, but he's also considerate enough to put teams together that are the equivalent to having a bye week when you play against him.

Thanks for all you do, PStPM!   8)

I will let my three and one life time record against you speak for me. Even with the terrible season I had last year (which was derailed due to my October wedding and honeymoon) I still managed to beat you week one with my highest point total for the season. It was almost enough to make the whole season still a success.

Record Schmecord.  The only thing that matters in being at the top when the dust clears - something neither you or I have done yet. 

I will let you take solace in the fact that I won't be doing nearly as much crowing this year - it's bad form to keep talking smack when you're at the top.

In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

Who was the 2011 winner?

Danno (Johnsonville United) He is our two time winner. I suspect him of cheating, but I haven't been able to prove it yet :-)

He had the good fortune of facing me in the championship game after all my fluke wins in the playoffs over better teams.

'The Engineers'?  Maybe we should team up.

I have the blueprint for dominating fantasy football leagues, but I'm guessing by my 11th and 9th place, consecutive finishes, my blueprint could use a little tweaking.   :)

Heh, I'm a Fantasy Football toddler as this will be my third team managed.  The plus side is that I've improved every cycle!

Went from next to last out of 12 teams to an almost (by 6 points) second place finish of 12 teams.

This year I'm taking the trophy!

So long as you bring it back to it's rightful owner - ME - by the end of the season, have at it. 

We don't want to speculate what Danno's been doing to it for the past two years, though.

Acutally, all snark aside, I think a trophy would be an awesome idea.  Let it travel for the year like the Stanley Cup... set up it's own thread to post pictures of 'what the cup is up to'.... 

I'd be willing to throw in $20/$30 to make this happen.  Anyone else?
