I greatly respect Greg and Tom and their decision making process. I know that they ONLY want what is best for the industry and players. They work tirelessly to provide a product that meets and exceeds the needs of the HS fantasy community.

If I take a break and am not around for a while it is because it is in my best interest. I need to start studying a little more for next years Classic and Primetime where in 2010, I am again going to be a donor. Why more people don't flock to Chicago for a shot at being in my league boggles my mind. Remember, you're the Excel King!! The best way to prepare for 2011 is to analyze 2010, so when you have time let's see some of those cool draft position charts and analysis. You know everyone loves those in the NFFC.

And when you have a little more time, send some of those great photos you took of our participants in Chicago and Las Vegas. We'll get them on the site. I love the group shot we had after the NFFC Diamond League draft. Let's get that on the home page.

Thanks Champ. You're the best.

Greg or Tom, is it true that the same owner who dropped MSW also owns a second team in the same league? If so, it sure sounds like an attempt at collusion rather than a mistake.
Perhaps there should be a rule against owning more
than 1 team in the same league.
What happens when they play each other? If one team has a much better shot at making the playoffs, the other team will start their scrubs that week. This is a concern. It's my league and I chatted with them during the draft. They have more than the same last name...they are married

Good job guys as always handling this one. My only interest in this anyway was if MSW was deemed undroppable. I enjoyed presenting my side of the arguement as well as hearing the other side.

Maybe in the future we can have these discussions in a healthier way because they really do add to the contest IMO

For what it's worth I think that Tom and Greg made the right call here and it's consistent with what they have done in the past. I"m well satisfied with this.

I could easily see someone smelling something rotten here.

Until then, let's not roast these two for being married. They can still compete hard against each other just like you and Wayne would in any league. And if you see that they're not, by all means call them out. Heck, folks have already accused them of worse after the first FAAB period.

Although the guy does look great in a Colts Jersey!

I'll be happy to discuss with you privately this league's draft if you would like some more insight. If not, cool, those of us in the league security dept. will be watching in the future

I'm trying to give the benefit of the doubt......
