One of the reasons I volunteered to be a commissioner is because i had all 6 teams built within a week of the post. I figured the best way to prevent me from making changes like I did last year was to lock my teams lol.

Personally don't understand the $110m struggle. I think that theme took me the least amount of time over any of the others.

I guess we'll see how they perform, but in my personal experience, the more I messaged with teams, the more likelihood that I'll screw something up

And I don’t mean to sound churlish. I understand life happens to all of us and sometimes it takes longer to find the time or energy to complete things. I also appreciate the immense amount of work it takes to host a championship of this size with this many owners to corral, and this many rosters to check.

I just think ether deadlines were way too long.

it’s my experience that with deadlines half as long as these, or even twice as long, that there would be a similar amount of teams entered at this point.

Agreed. Some people will naturally procrastinate no matter what and/or find a way to meet a short deadline when pressed. Additionally, there is always a small % that quit/give up for one reason or another (in this case don't complete the teams). My guess (I totally hope I'm wrong) is this will happen and we'll need to give the alternate(s) several weeks to build 6 teams.

I'm normally a terrible procrastinator, but I have stayed at it building my teams over the past few months. I spent a ridiculous amount of time on the $110M teams. It became a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle. I hope I didn't over think it...overall I was very happy with the themes chosen. That has not always been the case in these tournaments...

Be nice, Darth...

Also agree. I loved all of these themes, because they required looking outside the cookie box, but not over-the-top, painstaking research where you want to throw your hands up. Kudo to Ozo again for keeping this together.

I’m with you doc. That $110mm theme was my last one to enter and I still don’t like it.

Reminder that TOMORROW is the final roster deadline

You must have all 6 teams entered by tomorrow night, or you WILL incur penalty points

Only time will tell. Though, with the owners in this thing, the chances of my team winning 70 games is the likely output regardless of the time I spent making it.

If I win 50-60, then I'll be bummed.
