Sadly, I had to drop Goss from the listserve.  He had a good run, maybe should have won that Championship vs. Tim when the Bills game was cancelled but who knows.  

Still 1 playoff in 8 years is not a great record.  I was pleased he lasted as long as he did, through covid, living in DC.  He was the poster child for being in it for the good times vs being in it for the fantasy football part.  I have never know Goss to pass on a party.  

On to finding another poor sap who will donate their money and never make the playoffs! 

I'll open nominations with Carson who was a close 2nd last go around but open to anyone. I have not confirmed with Carson he is still interested yet.  

My main concern is getting someone who will stick.  After having nearly 100% retention for 15 years we have lost JJ and Goss in B2B seasons.  Getting someone who will stick is the most important thing in my book. 

Other nominations are open.

I’m good with Carson if he’s still interested. I don’t really have many more ideas beyond him to be honest.

Asking for a friend, will Carson be made available for a nomination interview or provide a resume? Also, Tim had some quality candidates present at his Jekyll Brewing birthday party.

Carson will be a fine addition.  I do think #2 Makes a valid point that we should have some sort of résumé or interview process, Gotta build a bench

Let’s maybe confirm he’s even still interested before we put it to a vote. It seems pretty clear he will get the votes.

Schwartz, I know you're an expert on prematurely finishing, but maybe in this instance the vote can wait just a little bit longer ;-)

Hope Carson is still interested.  Whose reaching out to him?  Scott?

Weighing in with what’s already been said. Carson, if he’s interested would be a solid addition to the league. Even if we are 1000% in on Carson, having him put together a resume would make for a great first engagement as a member of our esteemed league.

I am with Paul, we went through this last year already.  but hazing on draft day is encouraged.   I spoke to Carson and he is 100% in and free draft weekend.  

So far, it seems like a consensus.  Unless I hear another nomination in the next day I will move it to a vote.

Carson is obvious vote. But think he needs to sign a contract with a buyout if he leaves early

Welp I guess we need to explore the true constitutional process and make sure we aren’t pushing anything too fast

Just have Carson commit to cater EC Draft with copious Bojangles and we’ll call it a day, no need to haze. 

At this point - is there anyone against having Carson? Otherwise let’s make it official.

I have confirmed with Carson that Biscuits and Chicken are a prerequisite for him joining the league.  

Putting this to an official vote thread.
