I apologize for inactivity my internet is not being cut on until the 20th... WTF! Anyone know a secret to getting it on sooner?

[psusnoop]

I will be looking to play tomorrow night. Should be fun, I haven't tested the team out at all yet. Been dumbing down a playbook :)

I apologize for inactivity my internet is not being cut on until the 20th... WTF! Anyone know a secret to getting it on sooner?Up to the rest of you... do we wait for ecrip or blaze ahead?

[JBHuskers]

We can wait. Especially new dynasty, and being week 1. I'm pretty busy this week as it is, but it slows down a bit this weekend.

[TheAgency]

I don't want to come off dickish...but I would like to keep moving. This is the only dynasty I play in. Only one week tho. I thought he had a cupcake week 1.

[skipwondah33]

I'd say see where the games are and how many we have left by the deadline of 7/16. That's a week right out the gate of starting..

[psusnoop]

I'm with Skip on this one.

[JeffHCross]

I don't want to come off dickish...but I would like to keep moving. This is the only dynasty I play in. Only one week tho. I thought he had a cupcake week 1.He does have a cupcake. But if he has to do all his recruiting from the web...... I don't know about you guys, but I've spent a ton of time on recruiting already.

[JeffHCross]

I'd say see where the games are and how many we have left by the deadline of 7/16. That's a week right out the gate of starting..True, but it's extenuating circumstances. And it's *only* a week.

What's the reason for the 9 min quarters? Our scores seem to be pretty high, or maybe it cause of the lack of competition in week 1.

[JeffHCross]

What's the reason for the 9 min quarters? Our scores seem to be pretty high, or maybe it cause of the lack of competition in week 1.It was the setting in the OS sliders. I didn't think it would make a significant difference so I just kept it. I might move it down to 8 for Week 2.

[JBHuskers]

8 is definitely plenty. Games take long as it is.

[JeffHCross]

8 is definitely plenty. Games take long as it is.Yeah, I didn't think about it effectively being another half quarter. It'll be moved down for Week 2.

[JeffHCross]

My game was........ not a blowout.

Kansas escapes embarrassment, winning 45-34. The FCS quarterback throws for 430 yards and two TDs. KU QB Michael Cummings had a dreadful first half, only throwing for 15 yards and 1 pick. He ends the game with 175 yards passing, 159 yards rushing and 6 total touchdowns.

Since this is the first real week with me as commish, I suppose you guys need to know my philosophy toward deadlines. I'm not a dick or a taskmaster, but if you don't ask for an extension I will assume you won't need one and will plan to advance on time. I won't be texting people to check the night before or morning of to give you one last chance. If something happens last minute, that's fine ... but if I don't know about it before the deadline, that's on you.

[JBHuskers]

I'm playing tonight after work.

[psusnoop]

Playing tonight around midnight here.

[gschwendt]

I'll do my recruiting in the morning by 8am CT.

[pearice]

Go ahead if you guys need to it's not a big deal
