Neither team have 1 to 3 players to even build around. Neither team looks to even be remotely capable of competing next year, and with the lack of quality players either to keep for the long term, and lack of tradable players for the short term to trade for draft picks make both these teams a good 3 to 4 year project. And that's with perfect drafting!

I'm in leagues (and took over 3 myself) that replacement teams weren't going to be competing short term, but at least had 1 or 2 players to either build around, or trade for future players or picks.

Whether or not that's the reason for lack of interest I can't be sure. I for one, have fun taking over rebuild projects, but that said, both teams are in an extremely long term position as I see it.

This is one very good solution.

I would agree the tpierce team has a long way to go...the dinermike team has plenty of core and tradeable pieces, and
some good prospects. several of us with existing franchises aren't going to be competing for the playoffs this year
either.

I am willing to:

- Ghost-own the crappiest roster for the 2021 seasons
- pay for the that roster's 2021 seasons
- honorably draft for the team's best future interests
- let HAL manage the team all season after I make competitive pre-season settings so as to not tank-manage against my main roster

... if that will get the season off the ground and if the rest of the league agrees. If I draft enough young talent, someone will want it next season.

that's a generous offer padre...it may be the only way to keep going. we'd still need an owner for dinermike's team.
we could also take turns drafting for that team but its your $$
