Looking for GMs to start new Yahoo league: super competitive preferred
Hi All.
First time poster...
Looking to start up a highly competitive Yahoo league: 12/14 GMs, ideally all diamond level, but realistically at least mid-gold and up. I want only GMs who don't quit ever, are very active in roster management (trades, roster, dressing, etc), who will definitely be at the draft, etc.
At this point it is not a pay league, but I would like to make it a $20/30+ IF we get GMs who are into it (either way I am OK as priority is on having a fun uber-competitive league). Minimum goal is to quickly find a set of awesome GMs who want to return each year and don't quit even if they are out of the playoffs...basically turn into a massive bragging rights league (+ at some point a small cash winnings reward).

I would be willing to try it out for the season if all managers were on board to make it a keeper or a partial keeper of some kind, especially if you are looking to create a competitive league, it adds incentive to draft prospect type players as well! Most competitive managers would prefer to keep some of the players they do draft from year to year in most cases, me being one of them.

I completely understand your point. Partial keeper would be considered in-season if all GMs agree to it. It has a lot of benefits, especially if we include draft pick trading. I'm just being conservative in expectations as I don't want to mislead anybody since it is a new league and highly dependent on the GMs. Those that have joined so far look very good, for the record, and I would imagine that a partial keeper would be of interest.

Yeah, I just think it has to be decided before the draft mainly because draft strategy for a one year league is much different than for a year to year partial or full keeper league.
