Hi everyone. As some of you may know Booman Tribune has two Fantasy Football leagues, Frog Marchers VIII and Also Frog Marchers. These are Yahoo Fantasy Football leagues.
This post is directed to those who joined either league last year.
I’ve sent out renewal notices to all of you who played last year. Those notices went to the email addresses you used to join.
As of today the following TEAMS have not yet renewed:
Frog Marchers VIII
Viera Manatees
4 Days Out
ObamaCare
Nacho Uteri
Rabid Rabbits
For Also Frog Marchers the teams that have not renewed are:
Also Frog Marchers
Viera Manatees
Lyin’ Ryans
Lisan al’Gaib
Amish Rake Fighters
Crazy Cat Lady
West Coast Bias
Beckistan Bunglers
Renewal reminders were sent all of you to whatever email you used to join one of these leagues last year. If you no longer use that email, send me an email to stevendbt at yahoo dot com, so I can send you a link to join.
I also have two additional spots for Frog Marchers VIII, so anyone wanting one of those spots can also shoot me an email to my aforementioned Yahoo acct. and I will send you an invite on a first come, first served basis.
After Friday at Midnight, I will open both leagues up to all comers if spots are still open, so if you have an interest, send me an email. I will send invites to join either of those leagues to those who emailed me on a first come first served basis.
It’s a fun experience, and to be honest, you do not need to be an expert to play. Trust me on that. No money is involved so you won;t be risking anything but pride, if that. So don’t be shy if you would like to participate but have never done so before. This si fro fun and relaxation and God knows we can all use more of that in our lives.
Thus endeth the Booman Tribune Public Service Announcement for the day.
I look forward to this every year. 🙂
Nacho Uteri is playing again…but we may return to our old team name of Purple Dust Bunnies, as we had better record with that one. Sigh.
When is the draft?
I think you can change the name. Go to the your team page and click on the edit button in the left hand corner next to the current name.
I have always steered clear of fantasy football because I feel it besmirches my true love for the brutes who carry the flag of San Francisco. I don’t want my desires conflicted.
And here I had you pegged as a Seattle fan.
I lived in the SF Bay Area for almost forty years before I came up here in 2011, so I’m still attached to the SF Giants, the Niners and for some reason for which I cannot explain Stanford. Maybe it’s because, as opposed to Cal, they actually win games. I really resented the Ducks when their mascot cold cocked the Stanford Tree a few years back, but now I’ll root for the Ducks in anything other than a face to face with Stanford.
The networks, for NFL purposes, designate Portland in the Seattle zone, but there are a lot of us for whom the Bay Area got too expensive or who came north for the water.
The beer here is awesome, and the marijuana is great. Portland is extremely liberal which generally is just enough to keep statewide offices Democratic. Plus, we get to see snow once or twice a year.
You need a fantasy politics league as well.
Oh.
Wait a minute!!!
This site is a fantasy politics league.
My bad.
Sorry.
Nevermind…
Yore freind…

It’s a good thing you are here, Arthur, to give us the benefit of a reality based analysis of current events.
There are many “realities” on this little planet, Steven, and an infinity more throughout the apparently endless universe. You are chosen by yours, I by mine. So it goes. I do keep trying.
AG
You know, you should play in our fantasy football leagues. We all need an escape once in a while from all these damned realities. Certainly, I need one from mine on occasion.
I live for hours every day in the mathematically undeniable perfection of the musical overtone series. It extends above and below our own very limited perceptions to what may as well be infinity to us. It is the only true “reality-based” system known to mankind, I believe. I come here for relaxation and mental exercise, and perhaps to reach someone with a new thought once in a while. Part of my pro bono work, as it were.
I need fantasy anything like a third leg.
Bet on it.
AG
Alas, I am tone deaf (or so everyone tells me) and will never know such perfection. Oh well, we can’t all be musicians.
Ps. People pay you for metal exercise and relaxation? Now that is a job I would gladly do. Where do I apply?
Pps. We shall miss you Arthur.
Miss me?
As far as I know, I’m not going anywhere.
You want people to pay you for metal exercise and relaxation? The application for that job has to be made early, and it is really less a matter of “choice” than it is about having…or perhaps better, being had by…a certain kind of genetically dictated loose wire. Plus…it’s a hard job and if you do it right it rarely pays very well.
So it goes.
Generally speaking only people who have no real choice in the matter persevere in the position.
So that goes as well.
AG
You missed my pro bono jest. Oh well, perhaps it was too dry.
I would resurrect the ReConquistadores but I barely have enough spare time to check the news and here (of course) once or twice a week. Happy Drafting to all the participants!
P.S. CabinGirl: you should definitely go back to Purple Dust Bunnies. I remember getting trounced but at least the name gave me/us a chuckle.
