| 1 Who are you? Where do you live?Who am I? Jeez this is deep. Im 34, married, have 3 kids (we like to procreate), been married for 15 years. I'm busy busy with kid crap (soccer, music, dance etc) So about 10 years ago my hobbies from always hunting and motorcycles and poker shifted to fantasy football, which has gone from a hobby to a (dream) Part Time Job. I used to be in the Navy, I've traveled a lot, lived in Japan, Washington, Connecticut and now I'm in the desert of good ol Phoenix. 2 Tell us about your fantasy football experience, including the types of leagues you play in and where they are hosted.I have been playing fantasy football for 10 years now, Ive played on ESPN, YAHOO, FleaFlicker and RTS, but my all time favorite is MFL and main source for all my leagues. I currently play in 5 Dynasty leagues and commission (2) of them. 1 League is a 32 team, 2 copy, salary/contract IDP league and the other I commission is a 12TM league. I have played almost all formats except superflex. One of the dynasty leagues Im joining this year as well is a superflex startup, so that should be interesting. 3 Why do you want to be part of Roster Wars...what drew your interest?1) Bylaws are indicative to commissioner commitment and organization. 2) The stringent nature with owners, ensures dedicated owners will be present and it will eliminate non active owners. 4 How much time in a typical week do you spend on your fantasy football hobby? Not sure how much, but I'm surprised my wife has not killed me yet. (5-10 hours) 5 Talk about a favorite memory or crazy fantasy football related story. This season that passed I beat a divisional rival by .01 due. It solidified my 1st week bye in post season and I got to hear him groan for 3 days about losing by such a small margin. 6 What do you think members of your other leagues would say about you as an owner?That I spend to much time focusing on Fantasy Football and I try to trade to much. 7 Anything else you would like to add?Id be happy with the worst available team. Nothing like a challenge. 8 Are you joining to be a friend of the league or are you looking for the first chance into the fray?I'm looking to see if all the owners here really present that next level challenge. |

| Welcome man! I asked Tyler as well, where did you hear about us? (We like to know what works to find quality owners).
Dig around, get involved, the crew here is top notch! (Don't tell them I said that). |

If you get the chance, take it! I lived in Kawatana, apporx 45 mins from Nagasaki. We lived there for about 3 years. Beautiful culture and country. Great food and It was easy to hit China, SK, PI, AU and Guam while we were there. |

| How I found this league.
It started about 8 months ago. I found some dialect I had never encountered before detailing the "city of sin". It described defunct semi anti social group of people with a common love of men dressing up in tight clothing and chasing each other in hopes of being able to wrap their arms around each other.
I consulted the sentient being known as Google. Google informed me that this underground cult is wide spread and actually has tiers of greatness. Alas, it was vague and hardly provided the insight and direction i needed. Some young travelers told me of a thing call Twitter...something to do with birds and social connectivity. I found a jumble mess of information and well frankly slightly intimidating amount of information. None the less, I persisted in my quest.
Eventually, I mastered the twitter text and followed great prophets in realm of Dynasty Football. These prophets and their podding of casts opened up a great flow of information. Among this information I seen one man call out that he had a league like to no other. Thus began my journey here, where I have found the defunct and obsessive. |

I used THE TWITTER earlier and it actually worked!?!? I still hardly understand that shit and after a few years have seen very little from it when I've tried but low and behold here we are...that shit can work. I think I should TWIT that I would like a bag of money and see if this lucky streak has legs. |

Welcome man, like the folks before have already said get involved it's the best way to see if you are a fit for us and if we are for you. Hands down you wont find another league like RW.
What did you do in the big ol Navy? We all know who was responsible for that Sky penis fiasco in here. |
