That’s what I admires about you @Skipdog77.Well, exactly... thank you for agreeing with me! League 0001 may be in your future next year with this continued growth and development...keep at it! You got this.Trailer park boys, Bob & Doug Mackenzie, Shorsey - picture of class, I tell ya.Au contraire, mon frere...Canadians tend to classy things up.Canadians? Man, you league 1 guys will let anyone join. Talk about lacking standards.
Rik Emmett, Norm MacDonald, Ryan Reynolds, the list goes on and on. The whole world loves our Canadian brothers!

No mercy old man.
This old man just hobbled in looking for a crown. The heck with these young whipper snappers.

Somehow this thread (and the Home League threads) have to lead to more subscriptions to FBG for Joe. This is some entertaining stuff similar to the “real” home leagues most of us started in. We’ve “known” so many posters on this board for soooo long, that’s it fun to compete against them (now in multiple leagues! Especially if you count the el-cheapo best ball leagues some of us have started doing together as discussed in the FFPC thread).
Soooo many leagues to prove yourself over your SharkPool opponents. Or, in my case, “congrats in advance for beating me this year” (tm)

Nowhere to go, but up.Where does league 4 get relegated to?
Make your time. :ZeroWing:
@rzrback77 , @Birdie048 , @Scoresman ... who's mdchavez ?
Oh, okay.....I'll just refer to you as "The Hobbler" then......all year.
Relish the respect. You deserve it.
Maybe we can figure out how to add badges or icons to the poster's avatar here in the forums for the Shark Pool FBG Bowl Champs...

I guess I must not have signed up. I never heard any update on the trading question.

Of course we were. League 0001 is where it’s at, man.

They changed it to no trading this season after a review and poll from subscribers.

Is this like the Toilet Bowl Group?

Ok so are there still spots open?
Hope you read the fine print. Not only did you pay a 37% surcharge to enter, your FA budget was cut by 35% and that's even before we charge you a 20% tariff.
That applies to Home Leagues too? I thought the subject was about the FBG Bowl.

I have been screwing these two up in my mind for 2 years now in terms of which one I'm talking about/thinking about but I was talking about the FBG Bowl only. The home leagues are internally independent so I don't know that anybody ever asked about not trading there. As far as I know you are correct that it is only the FBG Bowl where the question came up (and was answered).That applies to Home Leagues too? I thought the subject was about the FBG Bowl.

Was there ever any doubt?
We are so close guys. League 0002 needs one person who was invited to confirm. League0003 has 3 people needing to login. League0004 we will fill here soon...

How’s league 3 missing 3 people?

So you put all the best guys into 0003 huh? That's fine, can't be the best without beating the best.

They are probably still feeling the crushing shame and embarrassment at being placed in the AA league.
I imagine that can't be easy on a person.

Crazy/awesome idea related to relegation/promotion…
If we settle into 4 Shark Pool Home Leagues….maybe the first year of this idea is the Top 3 finishers in each league go into league 1 next year. The next 3 finishers go into league 2, etc to the bottom 4 finishers into league 4. And THEN the following years we do a top 3 up and bottom 3 down “standard”promotion/relegation.
Am I talking about this idea too much?

Probably the "fairest" way to handle it, without penalizing the new leagues.Crazy/awesome idea related to relegation/promotion…

It's a good idea but probably belongs in the home leagues thread and not this contest one.I like it!Crazy/awesome idea related to relegation/promotion…

Crap. Like a few others, I consistently confuse Home Leagues with the FBG Bowl. I’ll copy/paste my post there. Thanks for catching thatIt's a good idea but probably belongs in the home leagues thread and not this contest one.I like it!Crazy/awesome idea related to relegation/promotion…

Giddy up, you lot! We've got a League to fill!!!
While I'm sure @Joey Wright is working his magic behind the scenes, I'm a more than a bit surprised that among all the SP regulars I've gotten to mingle with over the past 3 decades , there isn't a herd of folks champing at the bit to get involved with these Leagues...
They're free, and there's no trading. It's a relatively low-risk, low-maintenance way to friendly compete with fellow SP regulars...what's not to like?
What else is there to do on a Tuesday morning in late August?!!
Tuesday, August 26, 10AM ... Have 8, lack 4 ... yes, there are some vetted, acumen-rich luminaries involved...but you have me to beat up on, so there's that!
Man up! LFG!!

I think they filled up pretty quick.
People just need to check their damn email and accept the Sleeper invites.

IIRC, that was actually a key highlight of the rollout of the inaugural footballguys bowl last year ... that there would not only be the opportunity to compete vs fellow Shark Poolers , but FBG Staff, as well.
Would be cool, no doubt, with one (personal) caveat: having been around this place since it's inception, I'd prefer that Staff member (s) to be amongst those who've also been around for a while (Rudnicki, Wood, Gray, Tefertiller, Tremblay, Waldman, Bloom, Alexander, Parsons, Harstad, etc...Joe, of course, to name a few).
I'd love to be in an League with an active, participating Gary Davenport and/or Bob Harris, as well.

Getting 1-2 staff members in each league would be an awesome idea.

Are they sign ups or people who haven't joined us on sleeper yet but who have signed up?

I just know only 8 people show up when I open the league on Sleeper

@Instinctive
@MrJimiT
@psychobillies
@fightingillini
@Asutton536
and someone named bmanwahoo (not idea what their FBG name is)
Right now, yes. They are all full.
We are looking at the possibility of @fbghomeleagues opening a 4th league if there's enough people who want to play.
