I might be willing to take over one of these franchises for the remainder of the season and possibly move the Squirrels to keeper league next season. I don't have a ton of time on my hands to focus on setting my lineup on a daily basis (our IT dept. blocks Yahoo fantasy sites) but I could probably put a little more into it than what's currently being done. At least it would be a little more fun for the 8 teams that are actually competing. Another option for me might be to take one of the 2 expansion team slots that Webz talked about in the event that the league is expanded to 12 teams. The PFNFBL has really been cracking down on the Squirrels for our "code of conduct" this season so we might be forced to move the franchise to another league next season anyway. Keeper league would make sense to myself, Rufus and our ownership group. (Something that we also have to consider internally is the fact that we are absolutely sure that we will be winning Novice league this year. I think that there's a rule in place that if you win, you have to move to one of the more advanced leagues.)
Keeper is a weekly league, so there isn't a whole lot of time involved (unless you're Rascoe and you believe in your mind you actually have a chance to compete with the Linwood's and Laimbeer's of the Association).
If it's weekly, the Squirrels will make the move fosho! I can't wait to make Ricky Davis my first keeper.

Also, we play at ESPN if anyone is wondering. It is a slightly different layout and process than Yahoo, but not anything radical, and IMO its better. This is the link to the league if you want to snoop around (not sure how much of team data is public) http://games.espn.go.com/fba/leagueoffice?leagueId=12076

BallDon'tLie has been handed ownership of the Malcontents. Big round of applause. One of his first order's of business was to drop Al Horford before realising he had an IR spot. I've chatted to BDL and under the circumstances I believe it is fair and prudent to re-add Horford back to his squad so he can be placed in the IR. If you have put in a waiver claim for Horford it will be nullified sorry (please retract it if you have made a claim to make things easier). Thanks

Taking over the Detroit Malcontents has given me an appreciation for any GM who is given the task of turning a franchise around. My first instinct was to release almost everybody and start from scratch (kinda like Joe Dumars should do). I'm afraid that Al Horford was an innocent victim in this and I'd like to appologize to him and his family.
