I am trying to limit my leagues to 2 or 3 this year..... but I would like to do this one.
Which are you going with? Yahoo? NFL.com?

Alright, I was only going to commit to the one paying league I'm in this year, but I know eventually I'll regret being in only one league so . . . yeah. Count me in.

I have yet to receive an email regarding this league, so I'd have to say, it's not too late.

Been in bed sick all weekend so I haven't been on the web much. I'll try and get the emails out tonight :)

Hope your feeling better soon, dude. Take your time, I'm sure my limited number of brain cells could use a little time to absorb the information from my other two leagues.
Three leagues this year... That's officially the most I've played in during any one season.

Remember, you aren't an addict until you start playing fantasy golf and nascar ;)
Invites are sent :)
I need to hear from folks about what kind of draft. Do we want to try and do a live online draft or prerank picks and let it autopick?
Grift3r

I vote for preranking picks. I know it leaves much to be desired but I would hate to try and coordinate everyones schedules and time to do a live draft.

I'm not sure how the prerank draft works...we just list everyone in order and then the computer sorts stuff out based on our lists? I only see 30 slots for the prerank so I'm not sure how that works out well.
Blearchie
08-25-2006, 05:36 PM
We could also do it on line here on the board. I could have someone like sanchek do a random order for me then we could take turns posting our pics in a dedicated thread if y'all think that would work better.
That would eliminate the fact you might end up with some from the prerank you wouldn't have taken if you had known you got some of your earlier ones.
Thoughts?
I'm cool with that.... here on the board would be a new and cool way to draft. Live works for me too. I'm pretty flexible with my schedule.
I screwed up and made my team name my last name (long day at work) so maybe Blearchie can change that for me later.

I always prefer live drafts, but drafting here on the boards would be much better then preranking, I despise those. I'm quite flexible for drafting as well. As long as its not 8:30 monday, thats my own league's draft time. :P
It looks like you can change your team name yourself. I'm Go Gnome or Go Home.

I guess on the board here works too.
Blearchie
08-27-2006, 03:02 PM
I'm really leaning towards on the board if that would be ok. I can only imagine the scheduling trying to get everyone on line at the same time to draft. The only downside I see is it would take a few days as folks were able to post and stuff.
We're only lacking 4 more folks from taking the invite to get this thing rolling :)

Im joined as Nefarios, the board draft would work great for me. :)

What kind of time limit will we have to make this draft happen? If it's minutes, a group IM would probably work better. Sitting here refreshing a thread might work, but it seems like it could have some problems. Doesn't ESPN's league have a live draft function?
I've set up my team. My team name is Peyote Jay and I'm scheduled for a bout with Shorty week 1. :D
Question: I noted that Special Teams TD's are listed under Defense/Special Teams and also under Miscellanious. We gonna get 6 points for a kickoff return for TD under misc. and 3 points for the same TD under special teams?
Tranzure
08-28-2006, 06:21 AM
I think I understand the Misc. points now. Say a receiver on your team is also returning punts/kickoffs and scores a TD, you get 6 points. If you also own the defense that uses that receiver for this, you will score 3 points for the TD.
Now on to the number of players started each week. It lists 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 RB/WR, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Def, and 1 K. Then it lists for maximum allowed 4 QB, 6 RB, 8 WR, 3 TE, 2 Def, and 3 K. Am I to believe we are allowed to draft as many as 6 running backs? What's the total team size number? 16 or 26?
Sorry, this is the first time I've used ESPN's FF site. :p

I'd much prefer a live draft. Preset drafting sucks because you can't take into account what other people are drafting or what you've drafted earlier in the draft.

draft size on ESPN is 16 rounds, so 16 players max. Those are just the max number per position you are allowed to draft

Once you get the league set up you should post the info here with teams and then we could bet Vcash on outcomes. Hey I got Vcash to wager.
Blearchie

then we could bet Vcash on outcomes.
That sounds like an excellent idea! :)
Shortyrez Starfury
08-29-2006, 06:28 PM
Good idea. Now, when will we start the draft?
Blearchie
08-29-2006, 08:40 PM
Sheur is the last one we're waiting on to join the league. Then we can draft.
Going to get someone to give me an order (since I am participating) for the draft, but, if it might be possible to do it live, what times are good for everyone?
I've got 2 in peewee football 1 in cheerleading and 2 in soccer, so after 8 EST during the week(except thursday - cub scout and girlscout night till 9) works for me, or a sat or sun afternoon.
I could also do it during the day from work if we set up the day a few days in advance so I can make sure to clear my schedule.

Any day works for me as long as it's wrapped up by 11:30pm PST. I could do it during the day as well. On the weekend, any time is fine.

After 8 on weekdays is ok by me as well, but this Sat is no good.

After 8 during the week is perfect for me.

After 8 on Monday or Thursday for me next week. I have a draft on tuesday. I could draft on the weekend also.
