Tampa Bay Fantasy League

Only four days left till the big draft day !

I know I’m excited.  Just  a reminder to make sure you can log into the MyFantasyLeague site with the password you were emailed by the system.  If you cannot log in you cannot draft and that would be no fun at all.

Don’t forget that you can pre-select some picks ahead of time to try and make the draft run smoother.

Every team in the league assigned at least two franchise tags, with a total of forty players tagged.

The complete list by draft round can be found on the Draft Report Page.

The realignment of the divisions shook up the standings from last season a little bit, but I finished plugging all the teams into the schedule matrix.  The full regular season is posted on the site now and you can also check the Game Center in the Hall of Fame to see all of your past series records with each week’s opponent.

I’m still waiting on some keeper lists, again the dealine is this Sunday the 24th.  Still awaiting payment from some teams for their league fees as well.

Just a reminder that we are one week away from the Franchise Player Deadline on Sunday August 24 and two weeks away from the Draft on Sunday August 31.  I have received a few keeper lists already but remember you still need to pay your league fee as well.

And other news…

In addition to the return of the Marauders, the new owners this year have submitted their team names.  John Torres’s purchased Brewmasters squad has become the Hurricanes while Jason Gasper’s new team will be The Fudgie Whales.  I just need either Jason or Tod to pay for a roster so I can figure out the schedule and draft order…..any day now guys…..

The TBFL Hall of Fame has had a makeover from the 10th anniversary banners used last year.  I hope you enjoy it as you peruse you past accomplishments and look forward to that next career milestone.

The rulebook was added as a main page off the page bar.

I am still waiting on team names from the new owners and for Jason Gasper and Tod Pearson to determine which rosters they will be taking over so I can complete the realignment.  Most of the links on the MFL page should be working now.  Click around and let me know below if anything seems out of whack.

Special thanks to Meineke and BCS for inspiration…

In reviewing the new make up of the league and potential local rivalries after losing three teams this year, I am considering moving some teams around between divisions.  Warriors and Xfactor are brothers and just brought in a new team owner this year, so it would be cool if we could get the three of them in the same division to face off twice a year with each other…

Three employees at my workplace will be in this year, so again it would be cool if we could end up in the same division and have our own round robin smack talking….

Mike and Kevin have been locking horns in their division for years now, so I do not want to take away from that, and Eric has been in that division since Season 2 as well…

That leaves Danny, Sean, and Tim to fill the holes in the three divisions.  Tim has confirmed his return and will stay in the Bandit Division to face the Franklin Templeton foes…

Since Sean is the only owner left who has won the Buccaneer Division, he will remain there to face the Riley clan and Danny will become a member of the Storm Division.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
