I am very pleased with my fantasy draft picks this season. P.Manning, E.Lacy, O.Beckham, and the Seahawks D/ST highlight my team this season. The bye weeks will be a challenge, but I've done this before and believe that I will do fine. I'm looking forward to a fun and successful fantasy season.

How do your teams look this season ? Did you have a good draft ? How deep is your bench ?

When someone agrees to join a group or a league , IMO, they take on the responsibility to give their best each and every week of their committed time . It is the poor sportsman that abandons their duty to the rest of the league when they find they are not doing well .

I respect the last place member that has no chance to win the championship, but still marches on with his head held high, over any champion . The Champion wins the league trophy and bragging rights, but the sportsman wins RESPECT .

As a Fantasy League Manager, it is my responsibility to ALL my league's members to try to ensure a competitive league for the ENTIRE SEASON . This is my 4th season as a League Manager and it is not so easy a job.
I must 1st recruit enough players to fulfill the minimum number of teams/owners to satisfy per our internet sponsor. Then I must schedule a date/time when the most members can attend a live online league draft. Following that, the regular season's competition gets underway and I can relax and enjoy competing like any other league member.
I do monitor each team ,every week, but usually don't need to exercise any of my powers as league manager in the first half of the season.

About midway through every season (so far) I at least one member that is failing their promise to the league. They don't try to acquire players, and stop or appear to have stopped caring about their team. If they set a lineup it is at the last minute and not a best effort. Such behavior is unfair to the rest of the league that are still playing and places the poor sport in jeopardy of being replaced.

It is never easy to Drop a team owner from a fantasy league . I usually go out of my way to contact the person and give them a chance to explain their behavior and offer them a second chance to improve. Failing this, a league manager can Drop/Replace the person, or Drop the person and run their old team using the powers of the league manager, or run the team until a replacement can be found to take over that team.

No league manager wants to have to drag any of their leagues team owners to the seasons finish line, we'd prefer it if all league members (even the last place member) cheerfully participated to the finish.

Mucky Tundra (13h) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (14h) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (17h) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (17h) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (17h) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (18h) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

beast (18-Dec) : $100 million fully guaranteed Kirk Cousins gets benched for rookie

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.
