"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

Alright everyone, the Brooks Place Tavern back tables are reserved for us on Wednesday Sept 7th at 7pm, and if you could let me know if you'll be there so I can let Janice know how many tables to pull together (right now, it's just 2 tables so we can fit ~eight), that would be awesome. Reply here or
RSVP on our Facebook event
. Thanks!!!
This is a My Mountain Town gathering so even if you're not participating in the league, you are all more than welcome to come join us for appetizers/dinner and drinks! The more the merrier!

We're still going to do an online draft, but this gives us the chance to meet some new people and get to know our fellow competitors! Bring your laptop if you're doing the draft.

Sorry, we won't be able to join you all at Brook's next Wednesday but will be home for the online draft.
RenegadeCJ, I will look at the rules once we can login to ESPN, but did want to ask everyone about one past rule I think we should consider changing. In the past, the waiver wire order was inverse of the overall ranking of teams in the league. Is it possible to modify that rule (should a majority agree to it) to set it where it goes in some set order so that each team rotates and is 1st for one week, 2nd for the following week, and so on? I think we play 13 games so if we have 10 teams, maybe we let the order be set for the initial three weeks by the overall ranking (like last year) and then change it to this rotating order.
Does this description make sense? Now that we have 10 teams, it might not be so bad but when only 8 team leagues, waivers were critical. Thanks in advance for weighing in.
...and how do I change my avatar picture???
