...also, the players I keep will probably change based on whether things stand as they are or the Hangers are put back together...what do you think Commish?

blonde question. You click the keeper box and hit set line-up and that's it?

Frank asked if we could push the keeper selection date back August 27th. He and Sal are on vacation and have poor Internet service. Also Walt has not checked in. So if no one has any objections the the deadline for declaring your keepers wll be pushed back to August 27th.

This is what I think about adding another person to get us back to a 12 person league. When Mike decided he didn't want to play this year that put us at 11 members which we currently have. There is no 12th roster (we only have 11 in our league) because his players went back to in to the draft when he quit. Right now we have 11 people in our league and are going to add 1 person to get us back to 12.

Now all the draft positions are set 1 - 11 and we have a 12th spot open and that is where a new person should draft.

So I think we are set on the new person coming in drafting their own players and drafting in the 12th spot.


Walt, I got another email address: mikedrinkwater@gbpackersfan.com

No problem with that. My team kinda sucks so my keeper is pretty damn easy.

Peyton Manning, QB IND

News: Colts owner Jim Irsay posted on Twitter that the team is preparing for the possibility of starting the season without QB Peyton Manning. The future Hall of Fame quarterback had neck surgery in May and has yet to practice in training camp. He is on the PUP list. "I feel a little bit better. I still have some work to do. I still need time [to continue his rehab]," Manning said Saturday night. Irsay did not rule out Manning for Week 1 -- he even said Manning is healing -- but just made it clear that the team is evaluating their situation at quarterback. Behind Manning on the depth chart are Curtis Painter and Dan Orlovsky, both of whom have had mostly awful moments in the NFL.

Analysis: Without Manning, the Colts offense would be a borderline disaster given their alternatives at quarterback. We can't help but think that Manning will find his way back to the offense before the end of the preseason and be under center in Week 1. He's been with the team for years and knows the offense like the back of his hand, and he has no new receivers to break in or get in sync with. Manning won't need much time to get his legs back under him. However, if he remains on the PUP list for the next week to 10 days, there should be some cause for concern. If a player remains on the PUP list once the week of the regular season comes around, he is forced to miss at least six weeks. We still think Manning is a Top-6 Fantasy QB, but now we could see him fall behind the likes of Drew Brees and Philip Rivers on Draft Day. We'll keep you posted on his status.

I had PM last season and was planing on keeping him. This is going to be a tough pick now.
