Anyone doing a league this year? I am doing one with some friends. Was wondering if anyone here was going to do a cigar league.

I would like to play again this year.
I am up to start one using 5 stick buy in and five sticks for the troops kinda following the same rules as the CC league but we would use NC sticks instead.
I am thinking a twelve team league. An would use yahoo
Count me in for the first team
Add to the list if you are in. If we get the 12 I will be happy to get this going.

Are you thinking of a Live Draft on Yahoo? If so what would be the draft date & time?
Yes, it will be a live draft on Yahoo. I am thinking Sometime between Sunday Aug 21st and Friday Aug 26th. Once we have at least 10 players I will try to set a date and time that works best for everyone.

Nice thing about a live draft on Yahoo is that if one person is not there, if you have set your stuff up correctly, you can have the computer draft for you automatically - you don't need to be there.
Come on! Only need 4 People!

Ok. I have created the leaque on Yahoo. We just need 3 more to make this official. Once we have at least 10 players I will look at some dates for a live draft and will let the league vote on the best date and time. PM me your emails and I will send out invites.

I have been in 3 drafts already and have not had higher than the 8th pick!
I hope that changes. Looking forward to drafting with you guys!
Kickers Rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ooo, now that we have the 10 I guess I will have to post me doing the Truffle Shuffle. Look for it in a few days:)!
As soon as the last two sign up for the league I will start looking at draft days and times. Invites have been sent to them. Andy can you remind them to sign up?:)

For the draft, i work 3p-11p on a 4-2 schedule so my days off always rotate backwards. Next week I have Tuesday and wed off. If the draft has to be on a different day I might be able to get out of work early. I don't know about others schedules

If you are a true football fan.....to much is never enough!!!!:noon
I just set up the draft time and the best time that Yahoo allowed me to do it is for Saturday September 3rd at 9:15 CST. If you are unable to make that you can always go in and make your pre-draft selections and Yahoo will autopick for you. To do the autopick just go into the league and click on pre-draft rankings. Once in there you can choose all players you want and put them in the order you would like them to be drafted.
While I will be at the computer I will put in my pre-draft rankings and let yahoo do the picking for me. That way the draft will go a little bit faster.
During the season I highly recommend trading players, trash talk and bets against each other. Some examples are " player A bets 5 cigars he will score more points than player B", Or "Player A bets 10 cigars that their running back will gain more yards then player B's". Stuff like that. You could also do this for trading example: "Player A offers Tim Tebow and 10000000 cigars to Player B for Aaron Rodgers"
If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

My pre-draft is completed, but I do not believe I will be there live, which is fine by me.
If I had know about a requirement for betting, I wouldn't have entered. It is something I really avoid.
I will trash talk, but my bets are different - I don't like it that one party loses and the other makes a profit at the expense of another. It is something I avoid doing. I buy raffle tickets as a way of making a donation to a worthwhile charity/organization, but I don't buy lottery tickets or go to the casinos. The last 50/50 raffle I got in, I donated my share back to the charitable organization.
I can do bets something like, "Player A bets that the loser -vs- Player B has to smoke a grape Swisher." Or the loser, "cannot have a cigar for the next week." Or, "the loser has to drink a Blatz while smoking a Gurhka." I can get pretty creative about such things.
I would do a bet with someone close enough to me that we could reasonably visit, "I bet... that the loser has to prepare a meal for the family of the winner." It is then an excuse to get together and both parties actually win.
I'm sorry for being a stick in the mud. I hope you don't mind. If this creates a problem, is there a way to remove my name?
Peace of the Lord be with you.

Your fine, Betting is not a requirement, just something out there on the table if people wanted to.
I would never require this, I really don't plan on betting but figured if others wanted to that was their choice to do with each other
If you choose not to that is fine and everyone should be ok with that.

Um, I see all the team names and as for matching them with their CA screen, some I can figure out (teams Gophernut, Bucwhite, & AndyMadera are pretty easy), some others gave their connection earlier, but can we do it all in one place?
Here are inmates - and their teams. If there are question marks, somehow I missed the name. How about copying the list and filling in the ??? with an asylum name. Thanks.

Congrats Todd! Well deserved.
As for winning, that was a shock. I was one of those four tied at 7-7 guys. I don't know how all the equations figure out to see who is ranked where, but was surprised to find myself in the contention at 4th place.
Looking at who I had playing, I was also surprised to win last week - the Seahawks defense coming up with 30 points (miraculously) was the key.
This last one was also quite the surprise. Anthony's Tigerhawks were picked to win, but a couple key players falling off for him, and a couple players pulling up big for me, and I was able to get a lucky win.
I hope everybody enjoyed the season. I certainly am shocked to see myself on the wining end of things. Thanks for all who participated.
Peace of the Lord be with you.
