ATTENTION: Offseason Delayed 1 Week

[Suicane]

Due to the unusualy high turnover and the state of a few of the teams left ownerless, we've decided to take a 1 week sabatical while we try and fill the ownerless teams with solid, long term owners.

I know alot of you are in other leagues and I certainly wouldn't mind if you tried to recruit a guy or 2.

I'll have the new schedule up later today but it will be the same, just pushed back exactly one week and we'll start the offseason next Tuesday.

prudent move

Yea, while normally a weeks delay in the offseason would be annoying, this time I am all for it. It's important for the new team owners to be able to mold their team from day one, rather then come in halfway through and have to scramble to try to figure out who they have, what changes they need to make, what their gameplan is going to be and how to build their team around their gameplan....ALL of that, with files due nearly every single day. It's just to much to ask anyone and would take the fun out of the offseason.

Good move Sui.

I don't think we've had a true break with absolutely nothing to do (except pimp the IFL to some friends for recruiting purposes) since the league began anyway. This might prove to be a nice refresher for all.

[TUFFY]

Is there a waiting list to get in this league or should we spread the word to other GM's we know?

[Matt]

I usually have a break for 2 weeks at the end of every season

Hahaha now THAT was funny!

Both actually. Our waiting list is currently empty but in season's past we've had one.

I hate suggesting things that I'm not willing to volunteer for but I think the IFL needs a Recruiting Manager or something. Someone who's active over at FOFC would be best I think. Ideally we'd have someone all ready to jump in whenever a GM proactively cancels out on roll call as Ragin and Rip did and therefore the new GM can have the last few stages or so of the season to resign guys he'd like to have on the team at the start of the next season.

That's because you're a selfish Masshole who only thinks of his own team.

[BuddaKINGII]

sounds good I need a break...too. hahaha

Can use the break and a great idea to get the holes plugged.

Here is the thread Matt made on fofc about the openings in our league,

Anyone here who also visits fofc it wouldn't hurt to jump into that thread and add your 2 cents about how awesome our league is.

not sure if you're aware of this. JMO is out of the country. Should be back online in a couple weeks, I think.
