Joined.

Hopefully it gets up to at least 8 people.

6 is fine imo. If not, I'll create a classic league too.

thanks for setting this up s_c

Should be fun. It's a great way to learn players too. Around here, you only really hear about SKC, but you can learn about the whole league through fantasy.

that's honestly one of the main reasons i'm doing it (though i should be better off than the last couple of years with the mls live now)

And yeah, I don't really know all the MLS players that well. It's not a league I watch with great regularity. It took me a fair bit to fill out my team. A lot of googling. Should be fun.

This is really helpful. I know it's kind of nerdy, but it helped me make a few very tough decisions. Filtering by percent selected is what I do a lot.

Cauldron membership opens up today at noon. Buy one. That way all the gE'ers can pak at MLS Cup together stress-free.

Was $20 last season. Would imagine a slight bump this year. Hopefully not. https://www.kccauldron.com/cauldron-shop/become-a-member.cfm

I'm buying one, hopefully (pending)future job doesn't take me too far away from KC

you're going to end up in iowa, aren't you?  AREN'T YOU?!

I sure hope not, I SURE HOPE NOT.

  other than the winter being a bitch it isn't bad, IT ISN'T BAD.

MIR, join the fantasy league!

there are so many (84) adults at this party! it's hard to believe i will start high school next fall

do you guys want to know anything about all of these recruitz? a few of them are friends with my big sister so its nbd

you have to think with 142 adults running around, one of them would be cool enough to buy me some smirnoff or something 

just so lucky that today happened to be a snow day. following recruiting is WAY WAY WAY better than taking a geography test!

it's dad's basement too, guys. he keeps the old '77 yearbook, model trains, and some hunting rifles down there

i'm a little busy right now trying to get at least one person to laugh at the 8th grade riffing in the signing day thread

[sunny_cat]

Okay, @mocat, can I add you to the list?

There is a gE elite whose sis-in-law lives in WDM, he came here for the worst pak oat, '12 Baylor; complete with weird, envious hating ass Iowa State fan alone at the bar with the K-State Alumni watch party cheering for Baylor like he was Nick Florence's big brother.

mocat is my dude but I wanted to break his fingers today

[MakeItRain]

I don't prefer a head-to-head league because my summer's are amazingly busy but if we do have one it won't matter at all because I'm going to get my ass kicked either way.

"LA Gunners" has made it all the way to nfl.com...

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000324170/article/report-rams-owner-might-use-la-land-for-mls-team

According to the report, Kroenke has been given permission to name the team the "L.A. Gunners," serving as a sister team to the London-based Arsenal, of which Kroenke owns a share.

Do not want. Will take basically anything else as a Chivas USA rebrand.

[scottwildcat]

I would burn it down if there were 3 teams in LA. I'm okay with it if they buy from Chivas, and could also deal with it if Chivas got relocated out of Cali and rebranded and LA Gunners was an expansion side.
