Are you ready for some football!: Some fantasy football that is. Are we going to have a spofi fantasy football league this year? And have I earned enough respect to be a comish again?
I haven't got time for real fantasy football, but I'd probably enter a surivial league or pick 'em if there was critical mass.

I did ok last season if I recall, even though I don't know much about the NFL... so count me in.

Thanks, dusted. Looking forward to it.

I may have to sit this year out. It's all I can do to keep my baseball teams in their usual dominating form.

Is this a "drafting players" pool or "picking winners" pool? If it's the former, I'm not in. I just don't follow the NFL enough to be competitive, and I don't have the time to do player scouting, trades or even prepare a draft list. If it's the latter, then I can spare 5 minutes a week to make some lousy picks.

I'd like a "drafting players" type league myself.

I'd like a picking winners league. I stunk up the place last year in Yahoo Pick'Em Football, so I'll be happy to play again.

A vote for drafting players, but whatever. . .

Is this a "drafting players" pool or "picking winners" pool? why not both (pick 'em and/or survival AND a fantasy league)? though i believe/hope jbou was talking about a fantasy league.

I'm in for a free player draft league if there are spaces available. Cheers

Hell, throw my name in there too, if there's an open spot. Seeing as there prolly won't be a hockey season, I gotta get my fantasy jones somewhere...

Can we schedule the draft for after the last preseason game, or do y'all think that's too late? /burned by injuries last season

Feel free to step on my toes. Setup the league, post the number, and password, and we are good to go. I'd make it a seperate locker room post.

I will join.

Am I allowed to play even though I'm moving to Canada?
posted by wfrazerjr at 12:18 PM on August 04, 2004
sure, you can even have an extra starter.
posted by danostuporstar at 12:54 PM on August 04, 2004
...but you have to give up a down.
posted by garfield at 02:00 PM on August 04, 2004
...and play on a wider and longer field for less money and in colder climates.
posted by grum@work at 03:26 PM on August 04, 2004
...and share a team name with atleast one other league member.
posted by garfield at 03:37 PM on August 04, 2004
I like Ufez's suggestion of a survival league. Particularly since you don't have to limit the number of people who can participate.
posted by nath at 04:19 PM on August 04, 2004
I'm in. I think the commissioner should be voted on after we get a list of everyone playing.
