Pretty crappy situation. I'm liking my team after the draft, but it's kind of f**ked up you get the shaft because you probably didn't realize you had to reset your keepers after taking over for someone else.

This is probably what happened.

No I was not notified.
I have never played keepers before.
I know there is a deadline to set keepers, which I assumed already had passed and was done for me since I was taking over a team.

If this is the case, then I guess I will have to take responsibility for that. But being a new owner someone, *esco cough esco*, should have probably told me.
So, all that being said I guess we can keep it the way it is since it's technically my responsibility.

Holy crap that IS a bad team

I think we should re-draft.
Or else what is the point for me to even participate? - I might as well drop the rest of my players.

It's not because you're a new owner, I've run 3 fleaflicker leagues for over 5 years and all of them are keeper leagues. Each season at least 1 person drops after the keeper deadline and we've never had an issue with new owners having to re-select keepers. In fact, in the other draft that I was running simultaneously with this draft one of the owners just took over a vacant team before the draft started and he didn't know he had keepers before we started. I e-mailed the site owners to get an answer on why your roster was reset.

Well I didn't even get to select my keepers - I was under the assumption that they were already locked in. Of the people on my team, there was only 4 players which I thought were my selected keepers.

I dont know.

The keepers were already selected or your roster would have been empty when you took over the team. You shouldn't have to select them again... currently waiting on a response from the site.

BTW didn't you take over a team in the Parking Lot league? That is also a keeper league... did you re-select keepers in that league?

Yes I am in that league.
No, I had no problem with the draft at all. The draft went great.

That's what i thought
If we re-draft we should do it soon.

Garcia will be highly unlikely to win a game against an active manager if we keep things as they are.
