I don't think completely replacing him is necessary. He can still set his lineups and propose trades through ESPN.

Getting him a co-owner might be the best solution IMO.

Agree. Let D2R name a proxy manager if he wants (someone not already in the league). Who knows, he may find his way back here somehow.

I have no idea if he's interested or not, but maybe jmscoggin would be willing to take on a co-owner position with D2R. They're friends to my knowledge.

You're way too worried. You won't lose your keepers and we will figure out what to do with d2r's team.

As I said, it's of no concern to me if he keeps his team or not. It's just that if we do replace then we'll have to do it in time for the upcoming draft.

Keep him on. He still wants to participate. For drafts it'll just be a matter of Hollywood or me (I'm happy to do it) emailing him the updated draft list and relaying it here.

Actually, we can do this through the Fantasy League message boards, no need even for email.

The name of that site is right but it looks very inactive... messaged him to clarify.

Alright, here's my thoughts-

I don't see a need to remove D2R from this league. There are ways he can still participate, even when it's necessary to post in here. Can he still utilize PMs on Blowout? If so, he can PM me or whoever he wants when he wants to submit a draft pick, post a trade, etc etc. If not, I can get him my e-mail address, he can join SCF or some other forum, etc and notify someone that way. Having a co-owner that could post in here on his team's behalf isn't a bad idea, but I don't really see a reason to make it not his team anymore, so there's no personal gain for anyone that may want to be a co-owner to act as D2R's mediator

I'll get in touch with him one way or another and figure out what we want to do

Agreed, Hollywood. Best way to reach him is to use the Contact link here, he sent me a long update msg and seems to be at peace - ddavisaz on eBay

Sweet. I'm gonna revive our league message boards, it's time...

Edit: Also, under League check out the "Chat" section. It's perfect for us. Let's make it bustlin'

I'm bored and tired of arguing with D2R haters...

How about some BOLD Predictions for 2016 from your team (or other people's teams if you want):

1. Starlin Castro will finish in the top-10 total points for all middle infielders
2. JoFer will be in the top 3 in pitching total points

My Bold prediction is Reyes will win the batting title this year and have the most runs in the MLB. Hopefully his suspension is short
