    I'm really not trying to push the subject down everyone's throat but I really think a keeper league format would benefit this league all around, along with the slightly shortened season, Sammy suggested, as far as playoff success and team integrity goes.

    It will be hard to drop a guy like Love or DH12 for a Big Baby or an Anthony Randolph for a cheap win at the cost of losing a main cog to your team the next year.

    Just a thought (again) but if it's too much trouble, for you mainly RP, I'll drop the subject all together for good.

    Again, I'd love a keeper format.

    Thank you kind sir! I will carry the trophy with pride for a record 3rd time in the history of our league. I still can't believe Pops played Parker all 5 games! I figured he would play 3 at the most and had to sub Nate who gave one solid game before getting sat for the season. It was a good final considering the injuries both teams sustained.

    As for the keeper league, if we go that route, I think we should do so with a clean slate starting next season. Thoughts?

    Moes, moes, moes. You should know, 2nd place is the first loser.

    I'll say what I always say. Having the ability to own Lebron (and to a lesser extent Howard, Love and Durant) is just so extremely valuable. I don't want to risk having a 67% chance of never getting one of these big-time players on my team ever again over the next 5 or so years.

    Just my opinion. I'll likely never quit this league no matter what happens, but I do not want a keeper format.

    Really good point. If I was guaranteed to not get a top 4 draft pick, I'd still want a keeper. But I wouldn't complain either way.

    I think fade makes a great point, but I did suggest the following below...
    Not sure if it's as clear as possible but it would help us keep the balance of the league even through the first 3 rounds.

    I'm cool with keepers, since I've been the main one pushing for it.



    BTW, congrats RP. You made some great moves and they paid off with a ship.

    I rather not have keepers. Teams with Lebron, DH, and Durant are at an advantage every year.

    I had unfortunate injuries to all most every player I had this season. Rose, Gallo, Horford.

    I know this was my first season, but if just my opinion.

    Hope to be back next year

    I can dig keepers as long as fade picks 12th and takes Anthony Davis.

    Waiting list

    Hey guys,

    I would absolutely love to be a part of this league. I'm a fantasy extremist and this format is awesome. Put me down on the waitlist if there are any openings.
