  • For a guy who knows how to name kids how about Criss Cut Fry?

  • PSA (part 5) - there's no particular rush, but I appreciate your attention to this and feedback. I believe the league will work best if I listen to any and all opinions and then make a commissioner decision and/or sponsor a vote, as appropriate, to ensure that we have as clear of rules as possible and are all enjoying the league. Luckily for me, Ottoneu doesn't actually leave much for me to do in the way of rules. Thank you

  • PSA (part 4) - once we are solidly in the offseason, there are no salary cap or roster limit rules and I am ok with that. If people make an offseason trade that increases their salary or roster size, it just has to be fixed by the keeper deadline in the spring.

    The Wuerling Darvish on May 26, 2021 8:22 PM

  • PSA (part 3) - therefore, I propose that for all moves in-season and until 48 hours after the season ends (when last day auctions conclude), there will be a 48 hours deadline to fix your roster so that it fits within in-season roster limits/salary cap rules. If a roster is illegal after 48 hours, I will reverse the move that made it illegal......

    The Wuerling Darvish on May 26, 2021 8:21 PM

  • PSA (part 2) - apparently there is the opportunity for someone to claim a ton of players or a ton of salary that puts them over the limits and just let their roster lock until the offseason, thus allowing them the advantage of heading into the offseason with more players or salary than Ottoneu dictates in-season. I don't personally believe that that type of exploitation of the website rules to horde players is in the best spirit of the league....

    The Wuerling Darvish on May 26, 2021 8:19 PM

  • PSA (part 1) - something has come to my attention that I would like to clarify and confirm consensus on. To my knowledge, you cannot pickup players during the offseason, although you can trade and you can initiate auctions up to the last day of the season. Ottoneu message boards discuss a potential exploitation of roster management rules. As people should know, the website locks your roster if you are over the salary cap or roster limit.....
