Just a suggestion.
I was pretty happy with Fantrax's ability to have a SLOW draft for D2.
What if we moved the Suicide draft/league to Fantrax?
Of course we will lose the ESPN history.
Then the commish won't need to input the players.

Actually, I kind of like doing it on here and seeing the comments/discussion that follow picks - and as I said, I really don't mind doing the inputs just pointed out that it's not an 'automatic obligation'.

But IF Treff want to continue, that's fine by me as well. However, he may need a break following dynasty 1.

As for transfer of duties, @TREFF I will need that for the 'A' and 'B' leagues for sure - but no immediate rush.

BTW - think I'm going to drop out of Coma - too QB dependent.

I got inn and tried to transfer authority back when it all happened. I don't have that power, only the league's creator can transfer commish powers.
@wilwhite is still the man we need

Well, that's interesting. .... we have all said he will be a permanent part of MBBRL - and he is. :suds:

Well... hi, everybody.

I've given LM power in the Suicide League to Lefty.

They did see that while Suicide is painless, it brings on many changes.

Done for A. I added you as second owner to a team in B but you have to join, I think, before I can give you awesome power.

Okay - you are now in charge of the Barbarians. Good luck!

But they are such an unruly bunch - - wait, I am one now. ....

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.

Kind of forgot about the banter. Excellent point.
I redact my request.

I am in, of course.

As for the site discussion, I don't particularly love Fantrax unlike most in here. One downside to doing the draft on here is that the commish has to manually input all the picks once the ESPN leagues open up. Fantrax might allow us to do a slow draft in May.

The upside, of course to drafting on the Hoop is that we get to see Joe's awesome charts!

Although, something tells me he would still find a way to post his charts if we were drafting on another site.

I'm good to draft on site or on here
if it means less work, let's do it on the site.
if folks don't mind the work or it's not time consuming for them, I'll defer the decision to them.

btw, there's a message board in the draft room on the site if we need to get some ribbing in here and there.
I know it's not the same as on here, but it would serve its main purpose.

I guess my main concern was whether the suicide draft would conflict with the dynasty drafts being discussed.

Nice to see that those who responded are all stoked.
I can't see the B Suicide members but this is the A:
Names that have a strikethrough have committed for 2017.

1 Team Lefty Doug
2 Soggy Bottom Boyz Chris
3 TKO Spikes Chad
4 Team THE RRC's 2.5 Ana
5 Smoking Monkey Jeff
6 Kamikaze Sloths Joe

7 Barilko's Oilers David
8 The Foot The Foot Nick
9 Team landseadel tommy
10 The Fudpuckers Scott
11 Drummond Bugle Band Ed
12 Ram Tough Edward

According to Joe's chart above - we now have Foot and TLance in. Missing are: @Chef99 , @Yellow Fuzzies , @Sam Sportboy , @Barilko and @Ram Tough . Suspect they are all in but need to hear from you guys. .....
 

Barilko

Probably at hockey or some dam concert you tell me
