Gentlemen and AJ,

We are 1 day away from the draft.  Can't wait until Nelly spends 12 dollars on Denard Robinson again!

Here is the latest.

Draft is at 9pm EST tomorrow.  It will take ~3 hours.  If there is now a conflict please let me know ASAP.

Entry is $140 each--a 12% increase vs. last year.

Please paypay or venmo me at spor...@gmail.com or @sportsjon on venmo.

You are allowed to mention fantasy football in the comments as I am not hiding my gambling habits to any loved ones.

Please get the funds in today if possible.

THANKS!!!

-Jon

Any NYC peeps want to get together and draft in person at a bar?  We were talking about doing something like the ainsworth on 33/park

Can I be commissioner next season because it seems like they get to make rules without putting anything to a vote? I don't care about the money and I've already paid the $140 (which is a 40% increase unless my $100 venmo to Lee last September was indeed for Kale salad with beans) but it's just pointless.

If the goal is more engagement lets get more creative and not cop out with a simple fee increase that won't do a damn thing.  Two ideas that took about 2 minutes to think of include:

1.  Low point team of the week is responsible for an entertaining preview of the following weeks games.
2.  Low point team of the week owes the high point team of the week some money (maybe $10).  This could be expanded to the two low teams owe the two high teams money.

All good ideas. 

Assume you want to put your suggestions to a vote?

I'm not opposed to either of these ideas, either.  But I also like the increased entry fee.  Theme for this season is whether anyone can become the first 2 time league champion.  And whether Lee will spend over $40 on the first 4 players nominated in the draft regardless of who they are.

Over/under on how long  before Lee is down to $1 bids is 7.5 minutes.

Haha, sure we can put it to a vote.  There are a couple ideas in there so I'm not sure how we want to set up the vote to untangle whether to do one idea, both, neither, bottom 1 or 2 scorers, etc.

Gents - 

Now I know you've been begging me for an 'about me' page, so for introduction:

I'm a 6'2 black haired Jew (Just think about the most Jewey fro you can think of, yes that's it).  I have a bad back and kinda have a muffin top, but still a killer softball/frisbee player. Everything I do is either incredible or the coolest thing ever.  Oh shit, I'm describing the man who offered me a spot in the league. Dan Nelson. 

On the other hand, I am a strapping 5'6 red headed Jew. A horse. A man who was tossed out of his last fantasy league for winning (won in 2012/2013). I will probably not post random weird messages, but I will offer a ton of incredibly fair trades that only idiots will not accept. 

Now, after a two year break, I am coming back for more. I have no clue who half of the players are and I will draft Matt Stafford and Calvin Johnson (he's coming back with Barry Sanders). 

Lastly, I am single. So, if anyone has a single sister, just let me know....

With that, I am down for an in person draft to pinch Nels' cheeks and whatever other incentives you all want to include. 

Glad to be on board and appreciate the offer.

You guys don't have to worry about Mikey and your sisters, he strikes out with mine over and over

Also, he is only 5'6" when he wears lifts in his shoes

I stopped reading at 6'2 Jew because no such thing exists despite what Nellie, Lee or BK may claim

Hi guys, thanks for the league invite. Rogers's brother Jason here. Confusingly I will also answer to Rogers.

I don't know why you want my height and hair color, is that part of the league rules? I look like my brother but younger-looking and with glasses. And my goal for this season is to not finish last.

Jon: I sent you the money with the subject "make your fantasies come true", just in case any of your loved ones see it.

Jason/Michael,

I just added you both as owners to your respective teams.  If you haven't learned by now, I am the greatest commissioner in the history of fantasy football.

Mike - solid intro.  Good start towards trying to re-build your credibility after being Nelly's referral.

Jason - now Dad can think you also have a gambling problem.

NYC folks - anyone want to meet up for the draft tomorrow?  I'm happy to host at my apt. or we can go to a bar like Ainsworth or one that has private rooms.

Guys I visited a caldera today. See attached including sleeping lions. It's a few hours away from the Rift Valley we were in yesterday. Different things. Not sure if you guys knew. 

Billy good luck in the draft don't take Sam Bradford. 

I've also seen more black rhinos than wifi connections so this is super rare

Looks awesome Tommy, although it would probably be safer to exit your vehicle and poke those sleeping lions with your index finger than it would be to rely on Billy to have a productive draft.

Sick burns, guys. Reminds me of the way The Serve Train crashed and burned last year.

No power rankings just yet.

But still a few ppl that haven't paid.

Think just 2 teams.

Come on people.
