Gentlemen, welcome back to our outstanding league! This is the 7th year of our escapades. Glad every single manager came back. So looks like lots of competition again this year.

For the business side of things:

1) All trades from last year should automatically populate by Yahoo when I set the draft order. Last year Yahoo did a nice job with the draft picks so I am hoping for the same this year..

Note: Although the draft picks processed automatically, you may still want to check yours. (I'm mainly talking to you, Mr. Caveman....)

2) I show only one off-season trade which I will be inputting.

3) Please select 10 keepers for your team. Just go to your team page and take the 'select keepers' option. You can change them at any time so don't worry about that.

4) As in previous years, we will have an optional fee of $30 for any managers who would like to play for money. We keep the fee low so everyone who wants to participate is able to do so. Again, this is completely voluntary.

5) I would like to begin a discussion about the number of keepers for 2016. We originally started with 3 keepers, then 6, and now 10. However, given that we formed a Couch Managers Dynasty League for those who wanted more keepers a couple years ago, I would like to revisit the number in our league. Whatever you guys want is great. I don't care --- but would like to have the discussion.

Gentlemen, have a great few weeks until our draft!
