i already have some teams, but i would do a .info league
if there is enough interest I would be down.
Football just ain\'t the same without a fantasy team.

live draft is essential.
we should start one.
8 or 10 teams? or just settle on 6?

league ID - 663836
password - sundance
let me know if you guys would like anything changed. right now the live draft is set for wednesday at 4 15. i wanted to set it up for monday since i figured most of you workalcoholics would have the day off but the latest time was 10 am. so I opted for a later time.
Post by: Spacey on August 31, 2007, 10:31:02 pm
there wasn\'t a way to make the draft later than 4pm?

I\'ll be at work. I am going to check tomorrow to see if I can draft from there. If not I\'ll just pre rank and that will be it.
if Yahoo! isn\'t blocked you shouldn\'t have a problem (unless they block all pop ups and java stuff, I believe the online draft thing is java based)
Post by: Spacey on September 01, 2007, 11:05:21 am
We have 4 teams right now. Need a few more. Lets get this done, brosephs.
Post by: zuke583 on September 01, 2007, 12:21:40 pm
a couple things:
the league is set to start in Week 2...is there any way we can change that to week 1?
it\'s not a huge deal, since it\'s not a money league, but i would like to draft if at all possible and there\'s 0 chance i can draft tuesday at 4:15. if it\'s all the same to everybody else (and it may not be - i don\'t know what your schedules are like) i\'d prefer a draft at 10 on monday. again, it\'s not a big deal if we can\'t do that (and i\'m not even going to guarantee that I would wake up in time for it), but if everybody\'s on autodraft anyway then we might as well set it for a time where we may be able to make actual picks
Post by: Spacey on September 01, 2007, 12:58:01 pm

you had the last pick, you should be able to view your team now. everyone has a good team, and there is still a shitload of talent out there in the free agent pool. my preseason pick for league champion is probably the polish guy from the ocean state.

its an entry-level league. about half of the six or seven guys have never played before (myself included). at first my buddy (who tried to start a league for our friends, but all of our friends apparently now have football hating wives) and i were just gonna keep it at a two person league and then have the most ridiculous ff scores of all time. but since he\'s a big fantasy guy he just couldn\'t take being in such a useless league! if anyone wants in our joke of a league (drafts tomorrow night around ten, maybe???) there\'s at least two spots left. if not, please provide me with draft strategies, please! :lol:

not really. you took travis henry as your second pick
the last three years that he\'s been healthy, henry has averaged 1300 yards and 10 TDs. now he\'s on a team whose RBs get 1000 yards without even trying...i\'d say it\'s a pretty good pick. (and at the very least, he\'ll lead the league in illegitimate children)
and while last year was a bust for cadillace, i\'ll take him in the 8th round any day. he\'s TB\'s featured back with nobody challenging him for the spot

The team I like the least is actually my own (Rodney Roid Rage). But if Frank Gore blows up like I think he will, I\'ve definitely got a chance.

How many teams were in this league? Ya did real well for QB (get rid of Favre though, even though he is a bye week fill in for ya, he\'s a turnover machine these days), first RB, WRs, and DEF. Depending on the amount of teams in your league, you coulda probably done alot better for a second RB, and even a little better than Colston as your number two WR. Betts and Foster are both good guys to have, but not as every week starters, they both split carries (Betts has more upside though with Portis\' yearly injury bound to happen sooner or later). Overall, 5.5/10.

In an eight team league, every team looks good before injuries/surprises/busts set in. But having said that, I\'m going with bush league bums as my pre-season pick. Peyton, Jones-Drew, Shaun Alexander (sans Madden Curse this year), and Ocho Cinco on one squad.
The team I like the least is actually my own (Rodney Roid Rage). But if Frank Gore blows up like I think he will, I\'ve definitely got a chance.
so much for that, im bout to get my first win with a team total of 44
