Money, It's a Gas

With the recent announcements of the multiple new awards for the 2021 season that offer cash prizes, you might be curious as to where those funds are coming from.

It's coming from you, the members of the league. But don't worry, we'll still maintain the low-rent risk you've come to expect from the Sack Pack. The League Budget has been placed on a spreadsheet and linked on our website for transparency.


We will retain the traditional place-prizes as such:
  • 4th: $20
  • 3rd: $40
  • 2nd: $60
  • 1st: $100


We're adding in a $20 prize for the Juggernaut award.

We're adding $5 per winner for Rivalry Week for a total of $30.

We're adding $5 per winner for Weekly Winners for a total of $70.

This creates a total needed pool of $340 to come from league fees. In a 12 person league, that breaks down to $28.33 per person, which is still a very reasonable league fee for a friendly low-stakes league. This also creates a chance for more people to win back part of their fees, and has (very unlikely) potential for one person to walk away with a maximum take of $195 (1st place + juggernaut + rivalry + all weeklys).

League Fee payments can be made via PayPal (link coming via email soon) or in person and must be received by the Commissioner prior to the start of the Draft on August 28th. Anyone who does not pay their league fee on time will not be eligible to receive any cash awards that may accompany any season awards they might achieve. League funds will be redistributed by the Commissioner to fee-paying award recipients. The Commissioner is not financially responsible for replacing funds not received by league members. Not paying league fees is not grounds for expulsion from the league but members opting not to pay league fees may face a shaming that will be determined by the other league members.

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!).
