Yahoo Sports league ID# 18725. Room for 12 teams but we can expand if there's interest. Just a fun Head to Head format and this isn't meant to compete with the main SportsFilter League. The Season starts Oct. 4th. Draft day is set for Sept 23rd. It's a 25 weeks season so committed players would be appreciated. League names is SportsFilter2a, ID# 18725. Password = fpphockey. Sign up here, you'll need a Yahoo ID if you don't already have one. Hope to see you there.

Mama's Boys is so into this one! I may not be winning the baseball league but I am kicking dad's butt! I will give it a shot is his favorite sport too! I will not take his advise on the draft this time though for the baseball league he told me it would be a good idea to draft Jeff Bagwell - good grief was that a mistake!

I'm in with the Kentucky Cruisers. I won't be available for the draft though. At least I know my hockey players (I think I do anyway) so I can rank the players I want ahead of time.

I'm in as Poke Czech Republic. Mom, if you need help with your draft, I'll gladly give you some advice. First of all, always wait till the tenth or eleventh round to draft a goalie. They're always going in the late rounds... Remember, I'm your friend...

Yeah right, I didn't know Jeff Bagwell was a goalie too. Is that why he didn't play baseball this year? I have no friends in fantasy leagues (not even my hubby!).

Poke Czech Republic, nice! I'm gonna pass on this one, I need to keep my energy to defend last year's title. I'm still waiting for an end-of-season thread where I can brag on and on and on, by the way...

no problem q but I'm hoping you guys have some room in your league. I'd like a shot at your title! :)

I have to skip this one. The other one is heart palpatation inducing enough for me. The one that qbert ending up winning, dammit. This year, I will not do wrong.

Gonna have to go with the traditional SpoFi pool this year.... and anticipating my traditional 2nd or 4th place finish.

Gonna have to go with the traditional SpoFi pool this year.... and anticipating my traditional 2nd or 4th place finish. Same here, except replace "2nd or 4th" with "1st", baby! What's that? I didn't win last year?! I lost by 1 point?! Revenge will be mine! /shakes fist

You lost by two points.

posted by qbert72 at 04:03 PM on August 28, 2006

Speaking of which, should I go ahead and set up the SpoFi pool again this year?

Unless you want to pass the commissioning torch, yes, please do.

posted by qbert72 at 04:40 PM on August 28, 2006

No, I'm good. I've lost the notes from last year & the locker room archives are still down, but we'll figure it out.

Oh, I'm in the H2H as the Steve Durbanos. I have no idea how Head To Head works, but I'm game.

In hockey related news: Preds sign Dumont. I think I may be going down to Nashville a lot this season. I will probably even go down to do some scouting during training camp.
