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?:)

Re: Fantasy football
 

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

Re: Fantasy football
 

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.

I'll try and get out of work early for the draft

Re: Fantasy football
 

Cool. If you can't be sure to set your pre-draft rankings.

Re: Fantasy football
 

I assume it's PM? I'll not be able to make. Pre-draft rankings are being set up as we speak.

Re: Fantasy football
 

Yes PM!

Re: Fantasy football
 

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.

Re: Fantasy football
 

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.

Re: Fantasy football
 

OK, cool!

I am looking forward to this though.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Fantasy football
 

Yeah, it will be fun!

Re: Fantasy football
 

Got Revsmoke's cigars today.

Re: Fantasy football
 

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.

Kneo - Hawks
Mikey202 - Warpigs
Bucwhite - Bucwhite
RevSmoke - Northwoodsman
AndyMadera - AndyMadera
Gophernut - Gophernut
??? - TigerHawks
??? - Fine Me Please
??? - ROMOsexuals
??? - Revis and Butthead
??? - Beer & TDs
??? - big daddys boys

Re: Fantasy football
 

Whats everyones opinion of the league this year?

Re: Fantasy football
 

I am enjoying it. It is rather low-key and not as intense as a couple other leagues I was in, so that's a good thing.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: Fantasy football
 

Good for me. I just hope the few people that havent sent their fiver in yet, get them in. Because im taking 1st!!!!

Re: Fantasy football
 

Congrats Todd! Well deserved.

Re: Fantasy football
 

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.
