The 2017 Draft Player Pool

First, I wanted to post the top players returning to the draft for the upcoming 2017 fantasy draft. Now I know the season just ended but for those of you who are already looking ahead to next season, here’s a list of the top players by position. Report Coming Soon… 🙂

The 2017 Scheduling

After my blunder trying to put together the schedule this season by hand, the 2017 scheduling format has been updated. In the prior two season we used the following scheduling format…

  • 6 games against division rivals (3 home/3 away)
  • 1 game against each team in your conference (8 games)
  • 2 games against a non-conference team (2 games)

Now we will be playing four non-conference games instead of only two, to more incorporate playing against the other conference. This is the new scheduling format…

  • 6 games against division rivals (3 home/3 away)
  • 4 games against a non-conference division (4 games)
  • 6 games against conference teams (6 games)

The teams that you will face next season coming soon… 🙂

End of the Year Balances

Lastly, I want to remind everyone to please keep in mind that if you are coming back next season and have money coming to you that is less than $50, this balance will be deducted from your league fees next season. It makes absolutely no sense for me to have to ship $15 or $25 on top of paying the shipping cost. Not happening guys…

Balances coming soon… 🙂

NOTE: If you are local and I can catch up with you and hand you your End of the Year balance, then this does not apply to you.
