Lizards are good-to-go for the 25th. Travis is acceptable. If we are to mimic the NFL, then we should "sell" the team as is.
Bisons Mon Apr 29 10:11am ET
Bisons can make the 25th. I don't remember the process for bringing in a new owner, as far as a vote, etc. I am in favor of Travis being the new team owner, as far as by-in cost, I would defer to commish.

Kevin from Baboons will be on a fishing trip. Mike might be available from the draft.

Well it is that time again so let's get at it!
First of all I am looking at May 25th for our Superbowl Party, due to scheduling that is the earliest date I can get. Please let me know how that works for you so I know if I should look for another date..
After we get the Superbowl date scheduled we will schedule the draft.
Before we schedule the draft we need to get a new owner for the Larks. Jesse Jones has a cousin who is interested. Travis Oakley is his name. His father is Rick Oakley of Charleston so some of you may know him, he worked at Trailmoble. Now we have done it two ways in the past, I favor just letting the new owner have the team and move on, maybe charge a double entry fee the first year?
If we have no other prospects let's get another owner in the league!
Now, as to my retirement, I have appointed Gary Cocommissioner to learn the system and he has already done a great job of filling in in my absence. Gary has always volunteered to help me at the Superbowl or the Draft or when ever I needed it. I am confident it would be a smart move for the league for me to appoint Gary as my replacement.

Remember owners there are no pickups allowed after April 30th until after the draft.

Hopefully you can make the super bowl party in a couple of weeks I’ll be home around the 29th thanks
Commissioner Sun Apr 14 7:01pm ET
Ok guys we need you to look for a new team owner to take over the Larks team. I don't think we want to drop down one team so let's get to work! I know you can do it so get out there!
Now that I am home I will get a date for the Superbowl Party and the Draft asap.

I’m amazed that I believe Tom’s idea would be good for the league! We used to play a kick returner in the past. According to rule #9 we only address rule changes every 3 years when we realign the league . That happens to be this year. Therefore we will have a rules meeting this December on 2nd Monday of this month. We should have most of a season to see how it works. Also will have to see what changes have to be and can be made on the website to incorporate this rule change if it would happen. There would be a lot of changes Mike would have make.
Frogs Sat Apr 6 7:43am ET
I think we need to wait a year and see how this plays out. We then can consider your change.
Lizards Wed Apr 3 2:24pm ET
The new kickoff format is predicted to create excitement and additional scoring. As a one year trial, let's consider adding a new line-up position - kick returner. The player you designate for that position can only score points from a kickoff or punt, not from any other position.
We would increase our total "players" to 19.
Your defence scores on interceptions and fumbles resulting in a TD and safeties.
This change does not veer away from Dean's desire for our league to mimic the NFL as much as possible.
Reactions: stupid ? fun addition ?
