It appears I haven't thought much into this whole KEEPER league thing. lol.

If someone wants to keep Aaron Rodgers for 10 years, I'm cool with that. It means the site is still alive. :)

I checked FleaFlicker and I don't see where we could set an expriation of any kind. So I think we'll just roll with keep'em as long as you choose to.

Another aspect to consider.. can users trade players prior to the keeper date.. example.. if you have 4 players that are worthy of keeping and another player has only two.. can they trade picks to obtain the overflow? Can you sign a free agent to the keeper list?

Holy crap this Keeper league thing has too many variables.

Shawn, do you want to lay out the rules for this keeper league? Or should we just scrap keep and go back to pure draft? The latter might actually be better since we'll probably have 2-4 new entrants each season.

I just don't have the time (or intelligence) to divulge into all the variables for this keeper stuff.

Let's say someone decides they want to keep little Manning. The pool of available players is set and draft day approaches but the day before the draft Eli busts his knee and will be out for the season. If the league is run properly the team owner is screwed. He should have to keep Eli on his team and wait until everyone else fills their rosters before he is allowed to replace him.

It is no big deal if everyone knows and understands this beforehand. I guarantee you someone at some point will try to drop their injured player and go into the draft with an empty slot.

I apologize for the confusion, but due to my ignorance and lack of KEEPER league experience, this league is going to be a full re-draft league instead. Sorry. Too many variables to hash out and just don't have the time.

If you wish to opt out because of this, please respond as such in a post following this one.

Didn't mean to drive you crazy Kevin. All the issues are doable. Just need to have everyone on the same page on draft day.

There are probably prepackaged league rules that can be used. I am not sure which ones you would want to use.

Less maintenance. 🙂

dfosterf (6h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (6h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (6h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (6h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

dfosterf (7h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (7h) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (7h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (7h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (8h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (10h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (10h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (11h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
