    Great, now Rich gets credited for the comeback.

    I still stand by bringing this whole thing back like we talked so if you're backing Rich's effort, I'm all in.

    My young guys look good too. I'll miss having Peyton, McGahee, R. Brown, and Westbrook though.

    Since so many will be new owners, a new stocking draft is all but certain.

    Rich, I have two friends that helped me with my team when I came a new owner and really got into the game. They would definitely be interested if we need more guys.

    Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

    I had a few of good, young players on my team. But overall, it was a mess. I'm fine with a brand new stocking draft. Those are always fun to do.

    QB Vince Young
    RB Fred Taylor
    WR Jerricho Cotchery
    DE Will Smith
    DT Shaun Rogers
    DE Darryl Tapp (my rookie pick from 2006)
    MLB Antonio Pierce
    OLB Angelo Crowell
    CB Darrent Williams
    CB Marlin Jackson
    S Deon Grant
    P Andy Lee (Pro Bowl punter)

    Damn you, Mikey! You made me wanna check out my roster and 6 out of 9 draft picks are starters already and I totally forgot I had KE on my roster. He was on IR from his rookie season.

    Yeah it did, but not near as bad as mine was.

    Tom Brady sucks.

    I mean it though. As good as the defense was, I couldn't score a point to save my life, not w/ Leftwich as my starter and w/ some of the worst guards in the game attempting to block. I got a decent year (first year) out of Kendyl Jacox. Other than that, I had awful guard play.

    Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

    if we draft from scratch and this restarts after 4/20 I'll join up as an owner...but there is no way I could run it again.

    I don't believe anyone outside of your thick skull has mentioned your running this league, Franklin.

    We'll be redrafting and, as we disussed earlier, you're in if you want in.

    Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

    I would definitely be interested in getting back in this, but really only if we could keep teams. I was really building something and was quite disappointed when it ended. Let me know how this is going to go down.

    Also, I do believe I still have the last rosters that Eb sent us with the players and salaries.

Other than the free agent and rookie drafts, there's not a whole lot for the owners to do, other than anything they'd like to do in the way of trades or other moves. It can be time consuming, especially @ the start, but it's also a lot of fun.
    I want my old team back. Do we also get the draft picks for this years draft that we were originally supposed to have?

    Ain't gonna happen. Since we have so many new owners coming aboard, we're going to have to redraft.

    Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

    I think I may give my spot up if we are starting over again. I don't think I have the time to devote to the hours and hours it would take to stock the teams over again.

    I spent hours building my team from the ground up and I was young and primed to make a run for years. Just about all of my draft picks were either starters or contributing on their respective teams. I don't feel certain enough in the league just folding up it's tent again after a year or so to devote all that time again. Sorry guys.
