Ah, the relief is over. Rebuilding process complete. I very much look forward to defending the title next year. Great season guys.

The league is back for 2015 - I've sent out email invites to all of last year's participants. Please renew ASAP if you're still in, or let me know if you don't plan to participate so I can line up new managers.

Also, I wanted to ask the group about the possibility of making this a pay league as a fundraiser for BP, with part of the pot going to participants. Would you be open to participating in this league as a pay league? What do you see as the ideal entry fee, prizes, and/or BP donation that would come out of something like this? If people aren't open to it we can scrap the idea altogether, but I though I'd float it out there to see if there'd be any interest.

$40 a head?

1st - $160 (40%)
2nd - $80 (20%)
3rd - $40 (10%)
BP- $120 (30%)
??????

Or just pay out Top 2 & BP....whatever people think lol. The issue is getting people to actually pay....we flirted with the idea of making our NCAA league a pay league last year...several said they would pay & never did.

I have always been a fan of 3rd place getting their money back, but that's when the payout is 100%. You don't want to make it too much or people won't want to or be able to pay. If you did $20 times 10 teams, that's $200...$100 to BP, and then maybe $65/$25/$10...that's a 130/50/20 split minus the BP donation.

I could be down for this. I personally don't want to spend much more than $20 as I am multiple other pay leagues already. If we are to pay out on 3rd place, then I would assume the losers of the semifinals plays for the third place the final week, correct?

9/10 participants from last year are back in. I'm giving @Buckeye_Mike (Amish Rake Fight) a few more days before opening up the spot to anybody who wants to join.

The draft has been set for Wednesday, Sept. 2 and 9PM. The keeper declaration deadline will be one week before on Aug. 26. If these times don't work please let me know. That seems like it's a little earlier than usual, but I can't do Tuesdays or Thursdays, and since it's usually best to avoid Fridays, weekends, holidays and Ohio State game days, that didn't leave many other options.

I am in the process of setting keeper values. I will not post them here, they will appear in Yahoo.
