First I want to thank Eddie for reaching out! He sent me the link so I could find the board again! Hopefully some of you remember me like Eddie did.
I tried to remember what the site we were using after my computer crashed and I lost everything (Back everything up as often as you can!!!) what a stressful nightmare that was!
How are all of you?

GTFO!!!!!!! Holy cow, omg No words here. It's like a 'much loved by all' friend just came back from the dead. We had to replace you in the now 3-years(?)-defunct Graveyard league. A core of us that uyou know have been here, and close, all this time. I remember all the pics you posted here (the the motorcycle antics and hot girlfriends lol), and all the time you always took between picks when we did the mock drafts when we first got the GY league together with all those draft pick trading rules and trade veto board with the software to measure if trades were fair. Those were the days. I'm great. A lot of time has passed, at least 5 years, eh? What's new in your life? Lots of catching up.

Thanks!
Yes I'm still riding bikes but have limited my street bike use to occasional trips with my now father in law and my brothers. I have been spending more time on my mountain bike and Motocross bike.
Whats new is I got Married 2 years ago this December to an amazing woman! She is absolutely the love of my life!!! We just had our son on June 30, and its been the best experience of my life! I feel incredibly blessed! I am now "that" dad and take a lot of pictures of him haha and I have already been bike shopping for him. He loves watching football with me and when the game is on he cant look away but seems to get annoyed by commercial breaks so he is for sure my boy. He also likes Hockey so I think he will be a sports fan. Wishful thinking yes, he probably just likes the patterns and light on the tv.
After Peyton left for Denver I found myself cheering for the Broncos and not for the Colts. I became a Broncos fan and this was solidified even more when my wife and my best friends wife surprised us with tickets to the Broncos vs Steelers playoff game in Peytons last year. It was my first live game and it was incredible! I was so happy to see my QB before he retired! My wife really is amazing!
I sold my concrete business this spring and have moved full time into management in my families trucking company. It has allowed me to have a more stable work schedule and be home with my family at reasonable times.

Whew to the motherlovin' HOOOO! Indy's back. Back again. Indy's back... tell a friend. LOL Of course we all remember you, Dave. Many of us from the "Graveyard" are here. I was just thinking the other day about you and a few others who had disappeared. Thankfully, I have access to the emails people joined here with. I usually reach out every so often to try and bring people back. This isn't the first time I've emailed you, so I wasn't really expecting to get a response. divebitch noticed you showed back up before I logged on today, and she was so happy that she called me to let me know. I'm happy too. We weren't really sure what had happened to you. Hopefully you'll continue to check in and BS with us, but nevertheless, I'm really glad that you stopped by to say hello. I also sent out emails to dstep05 & corndogupyours, along with a number of others that disappeared. It worked once(email), with Dstep. He had also forgotten or lost the site info and came back for a bit. Really glad you stopped by, and hoping it's not another 4+ years til' we hear from you again. Are you still playing fantasy football?

I have been, I took a break this year for the first time in a decade to try Fantasy Hockey. Last year I was in 6 leagues, I won 3, was second in 2 and 4th in 1. Sadly a few of my friends backed away for various reasons and I was getting tired of being the Commissioner, chasing people to update lineups and dealing with complaints about how they were robbed by the standard scoring so we need to update and try to back date scoring from week 1....
I will stop in and chat with all of you! Next year if there are spots available I would love to be involved again!
I did not get any previous emails form you? Nothing has changed on my email, maybe my spam filter setting were updated automatically but I cant think of why I wouldn't have received them?

Just so you know indydave this place is not as busy as the old nfl forums. We don't have much who should I sit/start type of stuff because we most all play against each other. haha I sure as hell aren't going to tell Divebitch who she should start.

Last year I was in 6 leagues, I won 3 Impressive. My claim to fame was back in 2014, lol. I won 3 out of 4 leagues I was in that year. Won the cutthemustard league, Steeler Jeff's( steelers1954) NFFL league, and my money league($800). Also won Dive's Big Cheesy(yahoo) League last season. Sadly a few of my friends backed away for various reasons and I was getting tired of being the Commissioner, chasing people to update lineups I hear ya' on that. The competition and participation level is awesome between us all. Took a few years though to get the right mix of people in the CTM league. Actually had to give FantasyMB the boot in that league because of inactivity. Anytime I've ever had to continually hound people to maintain their team, they were replaced the following season. Thankfully we've finally got a great group of competitive and active people. I will stop in and chat with all of you! Next year if there are spots available I would love to be involved again! Awesome, and I'm sure we'll find a spot for you in one of our leagues next season. I did not get any previous emails form you? Nothing has changed on my email, maybe my spam filter setting were updated automatically but I cant think of why I wouldn't have received them? Yeah, IDK. Sent you emails on 4/30/12, 8/19/12, 6/14/14, & 7/2/16 as well. Probably went to spam.

Nothing has changed on my email, maybe my spam filter setting were updated automatically but I cant think of why I wouldn't have received them? No idea what fantasy hockey might entail. Only that it lasts for like 6 months (vs. 4 NFL) pre-playoffs. And each team plays like every 2 or 3 days (??) Really no clue how that works or what is involved in line-up tweaking. Just know the beauty of FF is that it never changes. WWW (waiver wire Wed), practices, play status by Fri, game time decision. All updates are expected by Sun w/the exception of Thurs & Mon. We will certainly find spots for you next year. I might have one for you now in my Big Cheesy NFL. lol I look forward to more pics of you, the wifey, and baby. And so glad you've discovered the joys of Broncos fandom (I am one), despite the last 2 weeks. They'll be fine. Welcome back. Don't think anyone expects you to be here every day or anything like that, you're not even in a league, but I think I speak for all say we hope you'll stick around and check in. Glad to hear your life is going so well. The GY league broke up due to lack of interest and input from a few. Dstep was well... increasingly a wild card. Terry (twiley) was increasingly scarce and often disagreeable. Same for plax. He got scarcer (even in my BC league) as he got further into college. (Awesome)Ace did as well from league participation, but never left the forums totally. Don't know if you recall Miss Lacy, but we she is involved in many leagues of ours.

Fantasy Hockey is interesting, Its a real learning curve for me! Lineups are set every Monday unless one of your players has an injury then he can be placed on the bench and a bench player can be added. You only have 5 WW pickups in a season so draft well and don't waste moves in case of long term injury. I probably wont join the FF league this year as I have not been keeping up on the players like I used to haha and I play to win the game, I dont play to just play! If any of you have spots for next year I want in! It will be fun to be in a league with all of you! This feels like a really cool reunion!
