I'm gonna send a request for my running backs this year to be pallbearers at my funeral.

Would love for them to be able to let me down one last time.

I mean you still have a decent shot to win this week.

Also I've been carried by my Egyptian God wide receiver, Amon-Ra St Brown. That dude has had a monster season.

Looking like the championship game is all but decided. I pulled out the comeback after a rough year, but Cole has a tough team himself

Cooper is the 2nd player ever to have 200 yards for 3 different teams I think

Cooper broke the Browns all time record for most yards in a game. Also the first Browns WR to have two back to back 1000+ yard seasons. Even with the QB situation we have, they all know to feed Cooper because he is that good.

Whatever it says on the left.

@Mark do we have a "won a GWF fantasy league" badge? Might be useful to have those for the various leagues and such (also I expect it'll be easy to get a decent number of people in March Madness since that's a set it and forget it deal).

We do not, but there’s no reason we can’t add one. Unless you have some ideas, I’ll see what I can find and report back.

We may need someone else to run this. We'll at least need to replace Tubby it seems. But I can't remember if he was Commissioner.

You do have the capability to assign new commissioners on the pools as well. I already created a 2024-25 season for NFL, I just haven’t gotten around to posting the weeks yet. That’ll likely be something I start working on at the beginning of the week.

I haven't had a lot of time this weekend, but if you show me what to do, I'm happy to help with that weekly. I'm heavily involved in fantasy football during the season, so that's a drop in the bucket.

Same here. I gotcha though, because I was already planning on using the first couple weeks of the season as a template for you so all you’d have to do is essentially copy/paste and change dates/times. The most time-consuming part for me last season was adding the individual games, but that was because I was jumping between tabs on a single screen.

I’m not sure if there is a way to plug that kinda data in automatically, but what I did was essentially start with a bare bones layout, so I could learn how it was structured. I had to first create the league, add the logo, then added each individual team, their logo, city, and abbreviation, followed by the season, the weeks, the games with kickoff times, and open/close times for the pools themselves. The whole thing is very tedious from the start, so any degree of automation would be pretty sweet.

Sadly, my knowledge is mostly basic. @Ben or @Lee may have significantly more knowledge. Once taught though, I'd have it down.

I’d imagine the problem would be that the effort to rig something up like that wouldn’t be worth what it would be “needed” for at this point. As it stands now, the only thing we could get it to do is automatically schedule the seasons, or automatically update the scores, neither of which would be accomplished with less effort than it already takes now that the bulk of the “league” is built.
