Hello everyone.

The 2014 Phinfever T-Rock Keeper League site has been set up.

http://www6.myfantasyleague.com/2014/home/32664#0

Please respond to my email nealwhatley@yahoo.com or on this Phinfever Site Fantasy Football Post as to whether or not your playing this year.

I would like to propose a one year hold on the Keepers. For this year only, we would have a complete redraft. Basically, we would be doing a restart. Next year we would return to a 3-player Keeper League. Think about it. I’ll set the poll up here on the Phinfever site in separate Post.

This is my first year moving from co-commish to commish so bear with me. Of course, JP and Big Dave are there for advise and tech support, thankfully. Please send me your name, Phinfever site name and your team name to help me log everyone in.

$10.00 league fees paid to Big Dave’s paypal account. Everyone should have Dave’s info. Let me know if you don’t.

I’m looking forward to anther great year. If you need to call me my cell number is 865-679-2139.

We’ll schedule the draft after everyone responds and the teams are set. We’ll settle on a day and have a 2-3 hour Live Draft and then long draft for the remaining positions. Same as the past two years. Good luck.

Thanks.

If there is any open spots, I don't know if there's a waiting list or what, but I'd be interested in joining again since there is a proposal to start over.

Would still be interested even if the vote to start over don't go through.

You're on the list. You'd be a great addition to the League. I'll keep you posted as vacancies occur. I should have this all worked out within the next few weeks.

The champ is out this year fellas. Good luck!

I'm still trying to figure out who is coming back. A lot depends on staying with Keepers or rebooting with a re-draft. I've had two owners really wanting to stay with keepers and at least five wanting to reboot. So far we have YT Newton and last years champ PZ's Prime Time not coming back. A couple people might not come back if we redraft and a couple that won't come back if we don't re-draft. We have several people from Phinfever that want into the league. I've been on travel for the last week with business. I'd like to get everything worked out by the end of June so we can set up our draft. Please respond to this post with your thoughts and comments. Also, it would help me out if you give your Phinfever site blog name with your owner name and email. First year as commish and I'll start a matrix so I can keep it straight. Thanks.

I won't be the hindrance from keeping it going one way or the other.

I'll redraft, take a team over or do whatever the majority wants. I just want in this year.

You're no hindrance. We've had this discussion almost every year. It will work out.

I'm Back. I would rather not redraft. I made a trade to get Nick Foles and I would like to keep him. I rode him all the way to the championship game. I dont want to take a chance and not get him.

I'm confused. We haven't decided if we're going to redraft or not, but there is another post about letting Dave know by Sunday if we're going to participate or not...

_________________

I think Dave's post is for the members that are planning to come back so they know how many spots to fill with us wanting to join in.

Dave's post says the vote is to redraft so, it looks like a redraft this year.

I think after Sunday me, you and whoever else was wanting in the league can join in if there is slots available.

Coots, I already have a team. But I am only willing to return if we redraft. It sucked inheriting an awful team (Eli Manning was one of my keepers because there was no one else!!)...

I'd like an opportunity to rebuild now. ;)

_________________

We're going to redraft based on those who have all ready voted.



Neal and I will talk about the amount of keepers as 3 may be too many since we have a lot of teams. I'm sure we'll put it up for a vote, but that does not affect this year's league.

Ok count me in.

Thanks!

PZ, last year's champ, told me that he is leaving the league and since he is an avid fantasy player I had to know why.

He said that he is in too many leagues (I understand that one) and he also mentioned that with all of our teams that most of the good players are gone if we keep 3 players every year.

Neal and I will figure things out. JP has done a great job the past few years and we want to continue to improve the league. Of course, if people leave (which is ok) and don't tell us why then it is hard for us to improve the league if we are able to.

OK. This year is officially a redraft year. I've always been a big proponent of the Keeper league strategy. As big Dave and others have pointed out, we've had some turnorver over the years. For all fairness, we're re-booting this year with a redraft.

The draft will be Saturday July 12th or 19th. As usual, we'll do a 2-3 hour live draft early in the morning around 9:00 a.m. and long draft the remaining roster positions after that. We've lost two members from last year. They've been replaced by NFL Junkie and Coots. Welcome aboard guys!! Bones is undecided and "I Live On Jaworski Lane" and "Jets" have not checked in as of yet. If anyone else would like to be put on the waiting list please respond. We may need 1 to 3 more members. Thanks everyone!

Please respond to this post as to your preference of either the 12 or 19th.

_________________

Somewhere during the first 4 to 6 weeks into the season we'll do a League vote as to the number of Keepers will carry over to 2015.

_________________

The 19th is best for me, but I can do the 12th as well.

_________________

OK.
12th = 1
19th = 4

I'll keep it updated.

_________________

The later the better. 19th.

_________________

19th is cool with me too.

I can do either. If you need a date then I'll say 19th.

All league owners please log onto our site. http://www6.myfantasyleague.com/2014/home/32664#0

We still have spots open for anyone that wants to join.

Also, I'd like to firm up draft day and time. I'm a family man and I know how important summer vacations are. We're still short a few owners. I'd like to push out to Aug 2nd if there are no objections. I personally would like to start as early as possible. I'll post a poll on our site for start time. Thanks.

_________________

I'm cool with August 2nd, I got a wedding to go to that afternoon around 1PM central time... it's only about 20 minutes away from the house though, so if we can do it as early as possible that'd be alright for me.

I also went to try and login to the league but don't see a team for me. What information do you need from me and do I just need to send the money for dues to Dave's Paypal?

Aug 2 is fine. Like I said, the later the better.

_________________

Im ok with Aug 2

OK, August 2nd @ 0900 eastern time looks like our draft date. If everyone can agree to starting earlier than 9:00 am, I'm all for it. I'm looking forward to the redraft format for this year. When drafting, keep in mind that we will go back to our Keeper format designed by T-Rock after this season.
