OFFICIAL The Coli Serie-A Fantasy Football (not soccer) 2014 Renewal

[Listen]

The other thread was 2 years and seasons old, so I wanted to start anew.

Welcome to the OFFICIAL COLI SERIE A FANTASY FOOTBALL LEAGUE, 2014!

A big welcome back to our long standing managers and 2013 alumni:

@King Diesel
@Walt
@I.V.
@NYC Rebel
@red222
@threattonature
@FaygoMI
@tremonthustler1
@Bruh Man 5th Flo
@mastermind
@BarNone
@Cliche

We are also bidding farewell to three of our long standing managers, who have decided to retire from competitive sports:

@Rev
@K-O-B
@yseJ

We'd also like to give a big, Coli Official welcome to our new recruits, the Call ups from Serie B 2013. These rookies finished in the top 3 in last seasons B league and have earned a spot up in the majors.

1. @Anbessa725
2. @StatUS
3. @Typical NY Fa

To finish getting everyone registered to their team, I will post all 3 available rosters for take over, with Anbessa getting first pick, Staus getting second and typical taking the 3rd team over.

Housekeeping notice:

We have always had 2 keepers. @King Diesel has proposed we up it to 3 this season.

I'd like a official vote on that this week if possible.

Also, we need to agree most importantly on a draft Date and time. For the new members, we like to do this as close to the Thursday night kick off game as possible to allow for injuries and roster changes to have little affect on your draft. Can we all get some times and dates in the bucket to begin deciding this week as well?

ALSO:

Players who cannot be kept this year:

Peyton Manning
Larry Fitzgerald
Jimmy Graham
Aaron Rodgers
Roddy White
Calvin Johnson
Ray Rice
Torrey Smith
Brandon Marshall
Drew Brees
Maurice Jones Drew
Marshawn Lynch
Marques Colston

Hmmm.... three keepers seems to work with me. Also, in general... the later the draft the better for me as far as time of day goes, as my show hits the air at 9pm during the week.

 

[threattonature]

I'm going to Cali on the 3rd so anybody but then and I'm good. Also I think if Keepers are upped it shouldn't take effect until next season.

@Anbessa725

Pick your roster and I will send you the invite.

@StatUS your on deck....

 

[tremonthustler1]

Selfishly, 3 keepers would make my life a lot easier and this is still a deep pool of talent. I'm undecided though because I'm used to having to make that tough choice every year. Kinda keeps some suspense.

 

[tremonthustler1]

Oh and let's not broadcast who we are keeping here. We can discuss it amongst each other privately if we choose but other than that no spoilers

Agreed. Keepers are to be PM'd top me by a specified deadline (I propose 1 week before the draft) and then I will release them all at once. Remember: You need to PM me the keepers no matter what, as I have to manually add them with their assigned value in the pre-draft commish settings in Yahoo.

As for keepers, I am Still a fan of 2.

 

[Anbesa]

So before I pick, I just wanna see if I understand. I pick a roster and get to pick 3 keepers of the roster? Then we do the draft to round out the rest of the roster.

As of right now.....its 2 keepers. Adding an extra keeper is on the block for a vote, but assume it's only two you get to keep and yes, then we have an auction draft to fill out the rest of our teams.

It's also worth remembering that this is an Auction league with 3 year limits on 'keeping' a player for the drafted price. So if you drafted, say, Michael Vick for $30 in this years draft, you could keep him next year for that cost, and then the year after that before you'd have to let him go back into the Free Agent pool to be back up for bid on the next draft.

Make sense?
