    I love me some Fantasy Football.

    But I self imposed my own FTR FF ban. Apparently I'm too much of a shit-talker or something because another FTR member and I got into it something serious in the playoffs. I thought I was being funny, I'm not so certain he did. Not a fan of what transpired after that.

    I think I'd be willing to come back for the $20 range this year.

    hey, just created a private league in yahoo

    http://football.fantasysports.yahoo..../flopturnriver

    pword is gauntlet
    id 73222

    i will gladly be commish, but would rather not hold the money. Is anyone else willing to do this?

    also, check out the scoring, this is the same as the main money league i play in, so I like it but if you have any problems or suggestions, just let me know.

    the draft is set for aug 31 at 7 pm, i can move that accordingly to what people want it to be so let me know about that as well. I figure we can all just ship $$s to someone trusted on ftr like an admin or something

    lets get people in asap.

    $20-$30 for me for a few leagues would be better than $50 for one
  22. #22
    How about we make Roco's league $25 and then I'll make another league for $25 also? It sounds like there's enough interest to do two leagues.

    I just made one so here's the info:

    ID: 77772
    PW: pokerz

    This will be a PPR league (if people have a huge problem with this I can change it, however I doubt it will be a problem since dthorne's league last year was PPR AND 6 points per passing TD which this league will not have). Rosters will be:

    QB
    RB
    RB
    WR
    WR
    RB/WR
    TE
    D/ST
    K

    I changed 3 things from standard yahoo scoring:

    1 point for receptions
    -1 point for a missed FG
    3 points for 300/100/100 yards passing/rushing/receiving and 2 points for 400/200/200 yards passing/rushing/receiving (had this in dthrone's league last year and I have it in the $50 league I do with my friends and it makes it so much more exciting)

    Anyway, join the league, we can talk about money later. For now it will be $25 but we can change that if everyone agrees to it, but for now just join with the assumption of it being $25.

    The draft is scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 5 at 3 pm EST (NFL season starts Thursday Sept. 9). There will be 2 divisions which I will randomly select before the draft after everyone joins. 2 division winners make the playoffs and also the next two teams with the best overall records make it.

    I have no problem holding the money for both leagues, I'm not going to Radashack you guys for $500 (I made $700+ in rakeback this past week). Plus I'm friends with spenda, Triptanes and dthorne on facebook and it would not be difficult at all for them to hunt me down

    not sure if you were counting me or not - but i'm out.

    None of the above makes sense (though I guessed QB meant quarterback - the only position I know in US Football), so I'd just be burning $25.

    I'm in for Bob's league. If Roco's league is really lacking I can try to do both, but would prefer just one of them.
    So you click their picture and then you get their money?
  41. #41
    bob, you handle on Stars is the same as Ftr, yes? or would you rather have ftp?

    I'd rather have ft but if you can only ship on stars, that's fine.
  45. #45
    Kingest of Nats, if I have sufficient FTP funds, I'll ship there. Thanks for setting it up Wildbob, and I'm in favor of PPR. I'm not 100% certain I can make the draft time but I'll do my best.
    So you click their picture and then you get their money?
  46. #46
    shipped to you on stars bob, thanks for setting it up.

    Are you "2 Mannings 1 Cup"?

    If you are then we have 9 people. So we need one more person. If anyone knows anyone that wants to play, please recruit them. If there is enough interest, I have no problem moving to 12 teams but anything beyond that really thins out the player pool for football.

  59. #59
    ill join either, so if someone else wants to join wildbobs ill be the 12th there (i dont want to pwn you guys and be the 11th now or w/e)....and iwant to make sure roccos is going down before shipping the 25 buck.

    wildbob can i ship you 25 on full tilt now, and if no 12th joins you ship it back?
  60. #60
    Yeah that's fine.
  61. #61
    ok shipped it from reddragon941
  62. #62
    Received. I don't think we'll have any problems getting a 12th. Worst case is that I get one of my irl friends to join. With 12 teams, 6 will make the playoffs with the 2 division winners getting a bye in the first round. I will update the settings later today.

    Hey, you can join the league. You don't have to wait until we actually get a 12th.

    Edit: I had the max team settings at 10, I just changed it to 12 so you should be able to join now.

    We have 1 more spot open in my league. Just join and ship the $. Read the OP in this thread for the league ID/password.
  68. #68
    roco - I want others to have a chance as well, but if you need extra people to fill your league out, then let me know. I'd be happy to play another.
    So you click their picture and then you get their money?
  69. #69
    Shipped $25 to Wildbob on stars.

    Team name is CBats Firing Squad.

    GL 2 all!
  70. #70
    Received. We have 12 teams now, if anyone else wants to join a league, there are still spots open in Roco's league.

    I will draw the divisions in the next couple days using random.org. I will post details later.
  71. #71
    Ok, this is what's going to happen. Each team will be assigned a number as follows:

    WildBob - 1
    Stevessmithsgoodarm - 2
    somethingcreative - 3
    Forms of Korn - 4
    Roco - 5
    Kingest of Nats - 6
    GoogleMeTheImages - 7
    CBats Firing Squad - 8
    asdfasdf - 9
    Spenda - 10
    Lakers4Life - 11
    2 Mannings 1 Cup - 12

    At exactly 1:40pm EST today (less than 15 minutes from now) I will use random.org to generate a random sequence containing the numbers 1-12. The first 6 numbers will be in one division, the 2nd 6 numbers will be in the 2nd division. There will be a timestamp on the sequence (will post screenshot) so you will know that I only generated the sequence once.
  72. #72


    Alright so the divisions will be:

    NFC
    Stevessmithsgoodarm
    Kingest of Nats
    CBats Firing Squad
    2 Mannings 1 Cup
    asdfasdf
    Lakers4Life

    AFC
    Forms of Korn
    Spenda
    WildBob
    Roco
    GoogleMeTheImages
    somethingcreative
  73. #73
