Interesting new league idea

Postby JoshGordonsDealer » Fri Dec 30, 2016 1:48 pm

Cult of Dionysus' recent thread inspired me to get the ball rolling on a long-time idea that I've had of a league with owners and coaches. It's still in it's infancy, but I've laid out some basic ground rules that I'd love input on.

If you like the idea and you're interested, PM me, and let's keep the comments to league suggestions and ideas.

EDIT: to those who have messaged me, when I have a larger interest, I'll send a group message. I'm at four owners including me, right now.

If an owner fires a coach, is the coach out of the league? How does the owner find a new coach?

Super cool concept.

Super cool concept.
I imagine the coach can still be "hired" by someone else. It would be cool to set up a sort of lobby for potential coaches, to have some on reserve. I'd be perfectly fine with unemployed coaches talking to owners.

I also would have rules in place for coaches to hire assistants to handle certain responsibilities (if they so choose).

If there are a lot of coaches interested, there could be two per team, as mentioned earlier.

I'd be ok with coordinators or coaches and assistants being friends, but I'd prefer owners and coaches not be friends. I'd like it to be an environment in which losing a job is possible.

I would be extremely interested in this as an owner if it isn't IDP, auction, or salary based. I understand if that eliminates me, but not ready to dip into those facets of fantasy.

Generally, I'm leaning IDP.

That said, part of the beauty of this is that you'd be matched with a coach before the draft. As an owner, if you're not confident about your IDP skills, you can "hire" a "defensive minded" coach and basically allow him to advise you on all IDP related decisions.

I understand if you're still out, but it's a cool thought!

Would there be a way we could do maybe offensive and defensive coordinators?

Basically, yes! I'm updating the document as I respond, I'd encourage you to check it out again. Perhaps I posted this thread prematurely!

To make this work best, you want to make it as dynamic as possible so that there arw clear roles and multiple elemtns tbat can be assigned. Salary cap, idp, etc. Also have three start up drafts/auctions for rookies, vets and idp. That way multiple managers can put their print on their team. For example, the defensive coordinator could be responsible for drafting and playing idps. While the GM handles the overall salaries and contracts of idps and offensive players.

I've really been thinking about salary, but I think I'd be out of my element commish-ing and setting up the league.

I agree with you, though.

While I'm not able to take on any more leagues, I would be open to help with the bylaws and set up the site on mlf. You can follow the link in my Sig to see what the league would look like, with a different set of banners.

I've got a set of bylaws for a salary cap keeper league that would be a good basis for this concept. Would need to add idp and some co-managing provisions....but that's pretty easy.

Can send it to you late tomorrow for your review.

Thanks so much!! That would be immensely helpful.

I'll PM you my email address, as I imagine I'll need to change a lot of numbers as well.

I'm interested as well.


As far as the whole thing with pairing owners and coaches I say we could make it public on here and let the owners "draft" their coaching staff and we use our forum handles that way the owners will know who they would have to choose from.


Super cool concept to be apart of without having to take on the entire role of running the whole team and whatnot.
12 team 6pts all TDs/.5ppr/SFlex/ balanced IDP, scoring est. 2008

This is another concept I'd considered, with the drafting.

My one concern is that it would simply lead to co-owning. By "hiring" coaches, i hope to create inherently different roles.

The owner needs the coach to be active to win money.

The coach needs to win if he wants to keep his "job"
