Previews
Week 3 preview: the unbeatens meet the waiver wire
Commissioner’s Pets and The Hash Marks are the last two unbeaten teams. Neither plays the other this week, and both drew teams that just made big waiver claims.
Draft
The 2026 draft, graded by the person who finished last
As last season’s Wooden Spoon, Theo hosted the draft and, by tradition, writes the grades. He gave himself an A.
Draft
Draft night logistics: the projector, the snacks, the order
The 2026 draft is at Theo’s, 8:00 pm on Sunday August 30, with a projector and a 90-second clock per pick.
Rules
Rule change vote: should the final end on Sunday?
Lena has proposed ending the final on Sunday night for the ninth year in a row. Voting closes Friday.
Deadlines
Keeper deadline: one player each, no exceptions
Every team keeps one player from 2025 at the cost of the round they were drafted in, minus one. Submissions close August 20.
Rules
Why the trade deadline moved to week 11
After 17 trades in 2021 and a late-season fire sale in 2025, the league voted 8–4 to move the deadline a week earlier.

This week’s order, according to Grant.
WEEK 3 · BY GRANT HOLLOWAY, COMMISSIONER
3
Grant Holloway
Unbeaten, and the commissioner swears he didn’t write this list. The group chat has asked for an audit.
▲ 2
1
Priya Sethi
The defending champ split the first two weeks. Still the roster everyone would trade for.
▼ 1
6
Lena Vogt
Lena picked up both waiver-wire running backs before anyone woke up. Tuesday nights are hers now.
▲ 3
2
Dana Okoro
Dana set a lineup with two players on bye. The team is good enough to survive it. Barely.
▼ 2
5
Tess Moreau
Tess is .500 and would like everyone to stop calling her team ‘quietly good’.
—

Ava Brennan
Ava’s flex spot has outscored three teams’ quarterbacks. We checked twice.
▲ 2

Miles Arden
Miles is unbeaten and ranked seventh. He has filed a complaint. It was ignored.

Rafa Quinn
Rafa scored 61 points in the fourth quarter of Monday night. The first three quarters were rough.

Omar Castell
Omar benched his best receiver for ‘a feeling’. The feeling scored 3.2.

Jonah Pike
Jonah’s team name is holding up. Everything else is still loading.

Sam Whitlock
Sam traded for a kicker. On purpose. In September.
—

Theo Nakamura
Theo’s strategy is working exactly as named. The late-round quarterback is the only one scoring.
