Ok, so I just re-read the thread. As a preliminary matter, it looks like Bz, Ace, Coach, and CC expressed interest in joining, in that order - for whatever that ends up meaning.
It looks like there was a discussion of upping the league to 12 teams from 10, but it's hard to imagine a fair way to do keepers for the two new teams (which was my point to liner). If the league stays at 10, seems like having the new guys take over old teams wouldn't be the end of the world if the other 7 are desperate to do keepers starting last year (as opposed to this year).
As for the keeper rules, looks like you guys said you were going to keep 3 (sadly not 2), and you give up the draft spot at which you took the guy (not your first two picks, which is the way it is in most keeper leagues, and which promotes a little more competitive balance).
