2019: The Season of Silence

As you all know, Steve/Slurms passed away only 4 months ago. His absence is felt in many areas of our lives, and the fantasy football league is no different. Simply starting the season contact email had me in tears, as it is the first one where I had to skip his name in the "to" list. As the various fantasy football emails start to pop up from yahoo and fantasy pros and such, I've had to start thinking about how to handle the upcoming season. I tried to wait to see if my feelings would change but I also want to be able to give everyone enough time to plan their fantasy football seasons. I'm not comfortable with moving on with a new season of Sack Pack so soon after his death. As Commissioner, I'm declaring 2019 the Season of Silence out of respect for our friend and presenting the Honorary Championship to Planet Express for the season.

I don't think that Slurms would want us to end the league with is passing, so I will contact you all for 2020.

Thank you for your understanding,

Shannon
Sack Pack Commissioner

FANTASY FOOTBALL STARTS TODAY

Week 1 of the 2020 season is here, and for us in the Sack Pack, it’s been an extra long road to return. This could be a crazier season than usual, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but hopefully all involved come through healthy and we’ll roll with whatever changes come along. Remember this moment. You’re currently undefeated this season. Be sure to set your lineups, coaches.

Week Three Report

Despite the fact that our Yahoo! chat is comprised primarily of Mike fretting about how terrible his winning team is, The Fighting Fistula are, as of this week, the only undefeated team in the league! I don’t know if our Yahoo! chat app can handle the flood of bellyaching we’ll receive now. It’s gotta feel good for Backus to the Future to get that sweet sweet win over Amazons, the coach who picked his team in the draft because he totally bailed on us even though we had set plans for like a really long time... but that’s cool. Grats also go out to GO BIRDS, The Astrocats, Planet express, Regis Island, and The Scumbags. Shady Bradys were totally robbed taking a loss with a score like that.

Week One Wins (and Losses)

Last night finished up week 1 and we have our fist set of wins and losses for the season. A big GRATS goes out to Regis Island, RG3POs, Shady Bradys, Good Picks, GO BIRDS, The Fighting Fistula, and Lollipop Guild. Don’t get cocky though. Many wins were close calls or the direct result of luck. Things will change in the following weeks. Regis Island also gets a big THANK YOU for preventing The Scumbags from restarting their undefeated run again this season (and not collusion needed!).
