Pursuant to the Loser's Consolation discussion, the 2011 draft will be as follows with the first four rounds non-serpentine, and the 5th round beginning the serpentine (meaning John Freeborn will still have the last pick in the 5th round, but the first in the 6th).

2. Patrick O'Keefe
3. Juan Fiallo
4. Joseph Morelli
5. David Hamilton
6. Benjamin Saunders
7. Joshua Aulozzi
8. Anthony Barriere Jr.
9. Kyle Jolly
10. John Herrin
11. Anthony Barriere Sr.
12. John Freeborn

Gotta give some shout-outs:
John F- good job, and congrats. You've got the best team going into next year (for as much as we know now), and a great start. Though, I'm going to decimate you next year, so enjoy it while you can.
Josh- though I view this as a dismal season for myself, I'm always content when the team named "I kick yo butt again" loses. :)
David- all I can say is read the book of Job over and over, that is my only consolation to you.
John H- you had the most wins this year.
Tony Sr.- I gotta eat my words here... great job finishing the season, and my SPR were wrong in judging your team... kudos.
Kyle- Never seen "homer" management work so well, though with the Bears D playing like it is, not that surprised I guess. I had a lot of fun watching the Junkyard Dogs being managed.
Tony Jr.- You interested in Finley at all? ;)
Dad- somehow you have a team of low expectations that always exceeds them, you're the dark horse that always finds a win against the odds, and it's been that way for two years. Now with the first 5 picks next year, I think you can build a playoff team.
Juan- when you fall off the horse, you wash your butt and get right back on... at least that's what I do. ;)
Joe- toughest spot going into next year, from no points this year, so you have a lot of ground to make up (not that I am much further ahead). All I can say is good luck, and I'm feeling it too, brutha.
Ben- I like you're management philosophy, your team for next year seems like another dark horse, and I'm excited. Thanks for coming in and immediately contributing to the league culture.
Myself- I deserve good things. I am entitled to my share of happiness. I refuse to beat myself up. I am attractive person. I am fun to be with... Because I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and, doggonit, people like me!


Regarding keepers, the deadline for confirming your keepers is one week prior to the 2011 draft (time/date TBD). When you feel like your ready, e-mail me your list (iampatokeefe@gmail.com) of up to 4 Offensive and 1 Defensive players you are keeping for next year. Once you let me know, I will post them in a list on the blog.

Regarding off-season transactions. I am compiling the list of everyone's final roster today. Anyone on your roster is eligible for trade to another team. However, there will be some rules for off-season moves:

1. All trades must be posted on the blog for at least three days for commenting and disagreement before I'll perform a trade on someone's roster.
2. Once the three days have past, if a majority of commissioners agree that the trade is in actuality meant to be a mutually beneficial trade involving real, bona fide keepers, then it will be passed. If the trade involves commissioners, other teams will be asked to evaluate the trade instead of the commissioners.

I think that covers it for now. I want to say THANK YOU to everyone in the league for keeping it fun, and for making it a great league. This is by far my favorite fantasy football league, and I hope it is for you too. Let me know if anyone has any questions.

Loser's Consolation - 2011 Draft Question

I know we decided that the losers would have the higher picks in next year's draft, however, there was some dispute on whether or not it should be a snake draft. Personally, as much as I'd like a non-snake draft at this point, I feel it would unnecessarily put the winning teams at a disadvantage. The snake draft would still give us losers the opportunity to pickup non-keeper high-value players, without it being so unfair to the winning teams. I'm opening this up for discussion and a commish vote.

Josh? David?

Week Thirteen, The Final Week

Here are your final statistics. Winners of each category are in yellow. Congratulations to all who won. I'll have the final points sheet updated after my exams are over, latest by after the KKR2010 playoffs.



Here are my final Subjective Performance Rankings. Remember, these are meant to show the rankings, based on W-L records, as they might be if the PA were more evenly distributed throughout the season.

2010 Year End Points

If the season ended today, without any playoff points being distributed, this would be the pointage spread for 2010.
