I am addicted to playing Fantasy Hockey, love running a team, love the daily moves, the transactions, the setting up lineups, choosing goalies, the ups and the downs...and with that said, ripping on sizzle and ripping on adding somebody is asinine. sizz is the Commish and he is doing just fine, it's a few team owners who are really inflexible. I'm glad you guys didn't freeze me out when the opening occurred. Spot on Danny, thanks Gotta love the people who want to refuse a long time poster here into the league for unbelievably stupid selfish reasons. 3 douche bags and counting... Wtf is going on here?

Wtf is going on here? 3 douche bags? What's wrong with us??? Sorry to ssy commish, you're on the wrong side of this. There's no problem bringing in a long time poster. The problem is ylu can't just bring him in to the league 2 months prior to the season starting especially when you don't even have another team lined up to make it even. Have you even reached out to the current league members to make sure everyone is returning? And why did you mention 2027??? Seems like you're way off base with how you're approaching the expansion plan. Establish an even number of teams first whether it's Brew and another team or Brew and a dropout. You did it completely backwards to start out with and tried to bring Brew on after off-season moves were already completed. So why call us the dbags? How bout you listen to your owners?

There is sooo much wrong with this it's not funny. So you are OK with bringing new teams on, but not with 2 months notice... So thats a no for this year then. You are obviously not OK with it. And you voted no, so That's the real answer. Don't pretend to agree. Why would I try to get the teams first just to possibly have the majority not want to expand? And why the fuck do you care how I go about this? It makes ZERO difference to you because you are not involved in it. You are complaining just because you love to complain ya miserable prick... You know I love you, but you know you are a miserable prick. How about listen to your owners? What do you think the polls are ya numbskull!!?? My problem might be listening too much.. Apparently the monkeys are running the zoo.

I'm sorry but when book/vag switched teams, that was sort of a moment where regardless of how you look at it, it was a dramatic switch...players were added, subtracted, waived, trades were made all in the effort to show that one can take a less-than-talented team to be good and/or to try to show that the other owner didn't know what the fuck they were doing with some riches. Anyway, I love how some of you get to pull off your little private mega-deals and do shit like that, but are completely against change of any kind. I just roll with the punches here, and do what the original 6 owners want to do. I offer ideas and get shut down, so fuck it.

Apparently the monkeys are running the zoo. The zookeeper is completely useless. The poll suggests that Brewins is never welcome to join is absurd. Brewins, a word of advice for you since the zookeeper is incapable of communicating. Unfortunately you inquired just a little to late for the upcoming season because transactions have already taken place so adding team/teams would impact that. My suggestion is in February if you're still interested, check back. This way it will give the zookeeper a chance to properly go about the expansion process instead of scrambling last minute. I for one am in favor of expansion, however with a years notice. Not 2 months

Since when is communicating through the message board private? I told everybody I was willing to deal the 1st overall pick if ANYONE was interested. Cmon Danny, you're better than that.

You'll have less players to pick off of waivers with an extra team. No.. We... We will have less players to pick from. We are all in the same boat. So you know what.. Pay attention more to who is on a streak and try to adjust better than your opponent. We've all got the same rules. Yeah, I can't say as I care one way or the other. Happy to have Brew on board if we can find another team (does ESPN allow for bye weeks?), but it does cause a bunch of complications. For example, does two more teams mean the season goes two weeks longer, so the odds that you'll have an elite team gutted by load management down the stretch is a bigger risk? I think we all might have made different decisions if we'd known there was expansion coming, but I think it's silly to rip sizz for bringing it up as an idea. There are also a lot of straw dogs being put out there as reasons why it shouldn't happen but I don't know that any of them are that hard to navigate. For example, if you're worried that a team composed of all of our 8s and 9s is going to have an unfair advantage when we get to keep 7 players we've judged to be better, you're not saying much about the current owners' judgment let alone your own. Pick the right 7 and there's no issue. I'm assuming, too, that if it's two teams, we'd all have to give up two keepers. Like I suggested above, you let them pick expansion draft eligible players only (no 2024 draft picks) until they both have 7 players like the existing teams, and then you work them into the draft. If you want to make it even more like the NHL, pick 9 keepers but make 2 players eligible for the expansion draft. If you only lose one of the two because someone cuts Rantanen again, and an expansion team takes him instead of your keeper, you keep your player. Long story short, it's not that hard to maintain the advantage of having good keepers, and then it's on you to make good draft choices. I don't mind the idea that waivers aren't going to bail you out if you just keep throwing things at the wall, but I agree that we don't want to limit any owner's ability to find ways to turn things around quickly if their roster tanks. So worth considering whether the expansion teams are going to have enough fun to want to stick around if a bigger league makes it harder to move up within the first little while.

For brew, I think there is a possibility one of our current owners may relinquish their team...I have no idea if that will happen, but so far there are a number of owners who haven't responded on this thread either. If that happens, then you are in. But it looks like consensus is 10 teams is enough for now. My suggestion would be the only way to really add a team to the league (or 2) is re-draft, but no one has the balls to do that in here.

The real message is from you is no, I voted no on expansion because I don't want to lose any of my players because im a selfish prick. Just admit this is 100% true and go back to kicking puppies. Stop calling people names. I voted no because I think it's a premature poll. Only 5 people have voted (presumably the ones chatting here) meaning half the league hasn't engaged in the discussion yet. Maybe someone wants to drop out making this discussion pointless. I'd love to have Brew in the league. We should leave all further discussion until we know if everyone wants to come back. If we find out everyone wants back, then it's still pointless unless there is another person wanting to join. At that point we could discuss expansion, but again I'd want to know the rules and timeline before voting yes. A good idea might be to have a BNFHL waiting list. If we get 2 or 3 names on it, then we discuss an expansion plan. The list also has people ready to take over when someone quits. We've had 3 or 4 quitters since the league started. We should also have a genuine discussion about what expansion will mean for the League. The last time the topic came up I thought it would be great to have more people from the forum involved and trash-talking through the year. I still think that, but I have second thoughts because I think it may handicap the ability of a team to make upward progress. Two more teams will make it harder to find players on waivers that can improve your roster. It will make trades more important, but that's harder for the bottom feeders. Right now a rebuilding team can take a whole bunch of gambles throughout the year to find a gem, the kind of gambles a contending team is usually scared to do. With then top 46 players out of the waiver availability, it will be really hard to find anyone good. Do we want this? It's an honest question. It doesn't hurt me because Team Butterface is ridiculously talented but it will hurt the other players, and I don't know if that's the best for the league overall.
