I'm sure most everyone is aware of the 'David Overstreet Incident', i.e. the drafting of a deceased Dolphin runningback with the first pick of the 1984 EHFL Draft. If not, catch up with it here. I can no longer laugh about Gary's pick.
A little backstory..I'm covering a friend's football teams while he preps for a new assignment in exchange for his taking over my baseball team this summer. Of course I didn't know he had four teams, three of with were concurrently involved in drafts as I type this. Ugh.
Anyway I was dealing with his dynasty team and post-draft I thought I'd claim Hassan Haskins, rookie RB for the Titans as a handcuff for Derrick Henry. Being the idiot I am, and using my phone to boot, I ended up putting in (and winning) a claim for Dwayne Haskins, the late (as in dead) quarterback of Washington. Ooof! I dropped him as soon as the email arrived and I realized that I'd fat-fingered away $3 of Ron's waiver cash but there it was on the transaction record.
The commish offered to delete the record of the transaction (but didn't offer to restore the cash or the dropped player) but Ron thought it was hysterical so it'll always be there are a reminder to him not to let me jack with his teams in the future. Fine by me.

As I type this on Wednesday the 24th we are less than two weeks away from the 2022 Draft. Please check the detains on the homepage if you haven't already. We will see you there!

I took several months off from even thinking about the league earlier in this off season. I had planned to update the rules page but I just never had the inclination to deal with it. Part of the issue is that I knew I hadn't really formalized a few details. I'm going to begin to update that page to reflect the simplified system we'll have going forward. In the mean time you can refer to the post below this one and the emails over the past week or so for much of what you need to know. The Rules page is now updated. I still need to proofread it and clean up some formatting but for the most part it's good to go.
