I don't know who Cyal8er is, but whoever they are - they are OUT of the Fantasy League. Every week I have repeatedly mentioned/asked everyone to get their picks in. Obviously, Cyal8er was either too busy to honor their entry into the league - or just did not care. Either way, end result is the same. See ya later.
Cyal8er will be replaced by my brother D Town (Dallas Morris). He doesn't usually go to the races but even last year liked to make picks and check results and standings.
I do not understand the trouble with getting picks in. Especially because everyone LITERALLY has all week to do it. The new thread is up within hours of every race. If folks are pressed for time - don't wait until the last second. Make em early in the week - and then edit them later if time allows. On the surface - 35 of 40 picks doesn't look bad. But once one looks a bit deeper, it has a profound and negative effect. There are 20 head to head matchups each week - so if 5 teams don't pick - thats 5 "broken" matchups. That constitutes a full 25% of the weekly matchups - broken. This league's success is based on involvement of its entered teams. It was highly successful last year in large part because everyone played.
This year has been good to a point, but it could be better. Having 4-5 people miss every week is not cool. not gonna work. I have said at least a dozen times - the only thing I expect from anyone who entered to play - is to do just that - PLAY. Every week..... PLAY. That's when this league is at its best - when everyone plays. I am very happy that about 35-36 of the 40 teams entered (near 90%) have taken it seriously. Thats all I really want from anyone who enters - honor that entry and make your picks each week.
What I am basically saying is this: Regardless of what has been missed to this point ---- To all those who play every week throughout the season - - I'll do anything and everything I can to make sure you have an actual real opponent every week.
Good luck to everyone in what I hope is a fully competitive week of Fantasy Pickin'
