First off thanks for another great season of soul 12. What a fun ride it was. As always the draft was a blast and the season was competitive and fun.
Few announcement going into 2019.
1. We will shake up the divisions as many have asked. That will happen sometime between now and July. It won't be a last minute thing. Probably sometime in the spring.
2. I had the same feeling many others contacted me about. I am 90% sure unless someone comes up with a great reason not to that we will switch our championship matchup/placing to week 13. There is the obvious reason of players dropping out of bowl games. I feel it will only continue to happen and we don't want people like The Q drafting all FR and true SOPHS to prepare for this.
. I would hate to see a dominate team during the season lose only because 4 of their players sat out the bowl game. Most of us have been hit by this. I had N'Keal Harry and Karan Higdon this year and a few in the past, but besides the fact that players are sitting out their bowl game it also makes sense because there are other players not being bowl eligible that impact this. That has always been part of the league and it can happen to anyone. The bowl season has always been fun for soul 12 purpose and a big part of me hates to see that change, but I think enough is enough. There are several player who also have offseason injuries who elect to have an early surgery in preparation for the draft, whatever the case may be there is a good amount of players growing more and more that sit out the bowl game. This will allow people to play their best player come championship week and not have to worry about that as well as losing player due to not being bowl eligible. (The main reason though is due to player dropping out who are a big part of an owners fantasy success) It would have really sucked this year had someone had Will Grier, Kelvin Harmon, Justise Hill, N'Keal Harry and Karan Higdon on their fantasy team. It does benefit the people who remain healthy and build as much as they can throughout the season, but I think enough is enough with that situation. It is very aggravating. I have been thinking about this the past few years and REALLY was ready to call for this to change after this year and then I had several others text me requesting the same. I also feel like unless you're playing in the title game there is so little excitement for the other 10 members in the bowl matchups, so why prolong it a month?
3. We will have a new owner... Our beloved batchaps informed me late in the year he was not going to be able to return. I will introduce @DHoey as the next owner of Soul 12. He will take over Drain Bammaged (Batchaps) team and I will fill him in on rules, keepers, deadlines etc. He seems very eager as I contacted him two hears ago and heard back from him late after the two spots were filled, so he has been eyeing his entry for two years now.
as always, have fun, nobody jump off the ledge if you have a bad year (looks at Q)
Enjoy this thing.. It can be a lot of fun. Looking forward to the draft in late July as always.
