Long time poster ? 2018 ? Ya, of all the stupidity going on here, let's cherry pick an argument of the definition of long time poster to be more than 6 years. Really? The vag is neely level, should we throw him out? You said "longtime poster", not me. Who invited Vag to play here ? He's always been a good add and I don't need him to post a ton. But it has nothing to do with anything. Vag got here and is an established member. And there are things established members don't want to give up. Don't get defensive about trying to force another member in here.

Ya, I said longtime poster and didn't even bother to look because Brewwins has been around for a while.. You are the one that took issue with 6 years not being up to your standards for my word longtime. The debate isn't defining long term here. The vag remark was rhetoric, obviously he's not going anywhere. I think you missed the point here.

And this shouldn't be a "force" situation.. It should be a fairly simple accommodation. Letting another regular poster here join shouldnt be this big a deal. But I guess if you value your own team more that allowing others to partake, you get this sillyness... And sorry if the word selfish offends you too, but that's kind of the definition... Is "regular" better for you or you going to fight that too?

The inflexibility of a few people is interesting. The very thought of re-starting absolutely kills some of you guys...really, honestly, I love my team, but I can start from scratch in a heartbeat for the fun factor alone. To not want that at some point is really guys set in their ways and clearly in love with their own peeps that they have collected as regular keepers over the years. Now again, I never approved of book and Vag trading teams, I was totally against it for a number of reasons--that was a drastic move and it affected 2 teams as far as keepers and philosophies changing rosters...that was perfectly okay for you guys, so to me it's hypocritical to be against change. And it is selfish. Even that trade of teams was entirely selfish and not respectful of this Fantasy League you guys obviously love to play in and love the current and old rules of the game so to speak. I get it, but then I don't because in the end it's not for money.

I get it your teams will be pretty good every year but what about the bottom dwellers? How much fun is it to get beaten every year and end up in last place? I don't know all the rules yet but I think to make things interesting every year or every other year should be an expansion year to a degree and top 2 or 3 players go back into the pool for each team and draft from those players again. Each owner can hold onto a certain amount of players but they have to relinquish at least 1 or 2 A players.

Each owner can hold onto a certain amount of players but they have to relinquish at least 1 or 2 A players. Actually, contrary to your thought here and the rants of the Commish, it's not about trying to stay at the top or whatever. I finished fourth from last and the Honey Vag finished dead last. The issue is simply enjoying the challenge of building a team within the rules. Vag actually swapped teams with Book (who was the worst, vag was one of the best) with the idea of trying to build a bottom feeder into a champ. Frustration stems from putting effort in with a given set of rules and then having them messed up by a surprise expansion. Vag made a big move at the end of the year sending me first overall for a couple good players. If those players were then exposed to expansion it makes his biggest move not only pointless but terribly bad. The big moves are the fun part of the whole fantasy league so it would really suck to see it just wiped out. I'm glad you got a team, it's a fun little extra element to the hockey season. I'd be fine with adding more teams as long as it's planned in advance, the more the merrier. Also, it's a 9 player keeper league so most players turn over each year. The standings also change rapidly. The way points are awarded the bottom of your lineup can impact it as much as your stars. The keepers add long-term strategy which is fun, but the 15 players you pick on draft day are more important, as are your trades and waiver pickups. Most of the good teams make a lot of in-season moves. I've been at the top, the bottom and everywhere in between over the 8 seasons.

I love hockey obviously but I don't think I follow other teams and players as much as you guys. But I think it will be fun. I've been in Fantasy football leagues before. We all worked for the same company and there was a lot of good natured ball busting but it was fun.

Brew, despite how others try to spin the narrative of expansion and that certain teams frowned upon you joining, don't listen to it. Fact is we welcome newcomers. It just didn't make sense this upcoming season due to an offseason trade. Expansion would have greatly impacted 2 teams due to an offseason trade. Fortunately for you, a team stepped aside which allowed you to take over. We're happy to have you, welcome aboard and good luck.

You said "longtime poster", not me. Who invited Vag to play here ? He's always been a good add and I don't need him to post a ton. But it has nothing to do with anything. Vag got here and is an established member. And there are things established members don't want to give up. Don't get defensive about trying to force another member in here. And this shouldn't be a "force" situation.. It should be a fairly simple accommodation. Letting another regular poster here join shouldnt be this big a deal. But I guess if you value your own team more that allowing others to partake, you get this sillyness... And sorry if the word selfish offends you too, but that's kind of the definition... Is "regular" better for you or you going to fight that too? You made the decision for the poll. You forced us to vote. More teams and expansion dilutes the league. DickTator Bettman.
