actually thats right. I had issues and you tried.
Last year I actual ran it . SP did the year before. I managed to screw it up and Stomp fixed it for us once I made him co commish. I am happy to do another but let someone else run it. It's a little confusing to set up on fantrax properly. If I remember right SP had issues the year before also.

if we have 18


this is my solution....

Lets do a best ball and a suicide...

12 owners for suicide, 14 owners for best ball...

the 6 owners who are not in suicide are automatically in best ball...

if you don't want to do one you are automatically in the other...

there will be 8 owners fighting for both...

I am willing to just be in the best ball, if people agree to my solution...

I would prefer suicide over best ball

I think it's a question of are we doing suicide or not.

We can do best ball regardless.

But I 2nd this notion, I don't want suicide to turn into best ball, completely different animals

i see 3 options as of now...

1. Find 2 more owners and make 2 suicide leagues of 10 teams

2. find 6 more owners(very hard to do) and have a normal 2 leagues

3. Merge the 2 leagues into 1 league(either 12 or 14 teams) and kick 4 to 6 owners out of suicide- And if we do this I would propose having a best ball too- reason why is that they are very similar in premise... and it is a way to include everyone.... and personally, i think it makes more sense to do two different types of leagues than to let some owners be in 2 suicides...



at this point, i think option 2 even though it is ideal, is Impossible to reach... and really should not even be an option...

See, I view this as the other way around. Suicide is the most unique league we have. Got to save it somehow.

I also have to say, I fear for the future of MBBRL.

Well don't we need to start to agree on some candidates to replace those that have left? Then see if any of them are interested? That's for suicide and the regular MBBL.

Move 5 people into the A league of Suicide. Then start looking for 6 replacements for B league. If need be double duty for a few owners.

Just my opinion on what is needed short term.



Long term we need to find some new blood for this and the main leagues. These leagues are just to good to just quit on them.

My question is who do we bring in? I am open to most anyone that is going to play the full year.

I second both of these motions, and would volunteer to run a team in A and B to keep suicide alive.

My particular job isn't essential, but the industry I work in was deemed essential, so I'm online at home almost 24/7 for work these days.

When you pull transactions out of a league set up you really don't have to commit much time at all to the league in-season. I could do endless suicide/best ball formats since they don't increase my time fiddling with them all year long.

Only inconvenience is hosting them on Disney's fantasy platform, since all of my other leagues are elsewhere, but I got over that yrs ago

Having posters double and have a team on both the A and B team could work. I'd volunteer for that myself.

I may have a fun idea.

we have 18 that is 12 and 6.

To fill up the second league the 12 owners of the first league a partnered into 6 teams. Where each owner splits the picks.

for example. If tko and tlance are teamed up one picks in every even round the other picks in every odd round.

I don't see how we add six owners.
Used to be people knocking on the door...don't wanna be the ones knocking. Kind of derails the point...

18 team suicide, no coma?

Real question is KOTF and BATG... Although we have more time there, still don't want people that are not "all in".

Also down for an 18 team merge there... (would certainly make QB a different animal)

Unless I'm missing "all in" people wanting in...in which case, that's great. Let's get it on. Tick tock

I would rather not do suicide if I didn't have to, but I am willing to pick up a team to keep it alive.

Are we at the point where we are nominating people for KOTF and BATG? I know there was chatter about a couple of people before, but I was going to wait until it was time before I chimed in.
