BucZone 2023 FFL

[arizona480]

Hi everyone, I created a new league this year. Thank you to all of you who have managed and participated in previous board FFL leagues.

I set the draft for Saturday, Aug. 26th at 8:30 PM EDT, I figured around halftime of the Bucs last preseason game would be a good time, but of course we can look at other dates. I also set the max teams at 12 with 6 teams qualifying for the playoffs taking place in Weeks 15,16, and 17.

If you all want to change the name to reflect the new BB home I am open to that.

[acmillis]

I'm in.

[kaimaru]

I actually remembered to check in time!

[Doctor]

Can someone show me how to play?

[IchabodCrane84]

In.

You need a valid medical license, injuries are killers in this league.

[wmgravytrain]

Some of y’all already saw, I’m back in this year.

[Doctor]

Were you gone?

[wmgravytrain]

Yeah didn’t play last year. Was in the middle of a move and missed roll call.

[arizona480]

We have an opening for either one (or three) more if anyone else wants in.

[Doctor]

We gotta pick a date

[Brazen331]

Date is already set 8/26 8:30 PM EST

[Brazen331]

We need 1 more person to join for a 10-teamer. Surely we can find 1 more person and get this league locked down.

[arizona480]

We can always move the draft date a bit later, figured most of us who have access will be watching the Bucs game Saturday night and available.

I think you figured right. My advice would be to keep that date and once you have an even number of teams close it out.

My experience with this league is that hardly anyone here cares about it then right before draft you have all these folks wanting to join, and then you have problems with getting an even number and too many teams.

You might just want to PM someone on this board or have a friend join and once you have an even 10 or 12 teams set the league. Just my 2 cents.

[Doctor]

Could mention something in a TD thread

I think Outsider has a friend who will join to complete the league. Only problem with posting on the main board is you could end up with an odd number and have to scramble to find or drop someone before draft.

[Doctor]

Outsider would bring in an outsider

What does that make the second Outsider?

I guess maybe post it on the board now. We still have an opening and it’s almost draft time. Maybe you can PM MJW and ask her to join? She really seems to like you, Doc.

[Doctor]

We're bffs

[kaimaru]

This was delayed until Thursday??

[Snake]

I can be in. Who all is in so far?

[Phantom]

Check your pm

[Snake]

I’ll be in. Will sign up tomorrow hopefully.

Odd number of teams, so had to postpone.

In another league, I'm being offered:

I get - Mike Evans
I give - Zack Moss

My only other RBs are Josh Jacobs, Miles Sanders, and AJ Dillon while my WR corps consists of Tee Higgins, Cooper Kupp, Nico Collins, Drake London, Jameson Williams.
Not a PPR league.

[Doctor]

Love me some Evans. Still kicking myself for taking the younger Godwin over him in my big money league.

In fun news, your boy clawed back from 3-7 on a 4 game win streak to sneak his way back into the playoffs, including a W vs acmillis our #1 seed. Yall thought you were getting off easy this year!

The most impressive ending goes @Outsider knocking out the highest point scorer (2000 PF!) @wmgravytrain. I'm sorry buddy, that just sucks.

You're the Buccaneers of our league. You'll get blasted by 40 next week

Agreed, He is just lucky. The commissioner changed the playoff seed format. He shouldn't be in though.

[Doctor]

I mean ff is all luck so...

Actually I think the issue was that we didn't change the format from previous years when we had 12 teams to account for just 10 this year.

Though I've been in both 4 and 6 playoff ten team leagues. We should consider adjusting it or better yet actually get 12 people next year. We use to have 14!

Yeah, I prefer a larger league. I’m in a 20-team IDP league and it’s a lot more challenging

[Doctor]

Congratulations to @IchabodCrane84 our 2023 ItsABucLife FF Champion!!!

[IchabodCrane84]

Thank you!

It took like a decade, but I finally took home a championship!

[wmgravytrain]

Congrats Ich. Your solid draft led to a calm, steady grind. Well played.

I still haven’t really come to terms with how my powerhouse of a team didn’t even make the playoffs, but it is what it is…
