Free FTR Fantasy Football League

[a500lbgorilla]

Texas is the fattest state in the fattest country in the fattest world in the fattest universe. Basically, if trikflow could manage around his mound of donuts to actually string together a decent football team, he'll never manage to survive the, on average, 3+ heart attacks he'll suffer by seasons end.

Does anyone else have any ideas as to what settings we should be playing with? Thoughts on what's been discussed? Also lets not forget to choose a draft date. I just threw that date out there to get the league up and running, any preferred dates/times?

[Trashcona]

Is anyone interested in playing poker to determine draft order? or do we just want to have it done randomly?

[kingnat]

full? if no, then count me in plz... i poz

Nothing really needs to be discussed because I am going to win.

[a500lbgorilla]

pick the date early enough and we can be free it up for ourselves, so that should be fine.

Draft date changed to August 23rd, 7pm EDT.

[Anosmic]

Ok, I was going to set this up on Yahoo once we have 12 teams. Right now we have:

Trashcona
Eric
Bigred
Trikflow
gabe
mrhappy
Ultimate George
'rilla
lukie?? - please confirm
blackatom
LimpinAintEZ

So if everyone is still in, we need one more, then we can come up with what rules we want to play with, ie:PPR or not? and a draft date.

Meeesa feeling decidely unloved.

Whoever finishes bottom can just live with the fact that I could have been playing this and you could have spared yourself the shame

[kingnat]

12 teams is too easy... plz make it 14 teams and add Kingnat FTW!!!

[Trashcona]

Right now there is only ten teams who have actually signed up. If one of the other two don't show up by the end of the week let's say, you're next in line. Sound good?

I actually didn't think you were serious about playing. Are you?

Yes plz.

How does everyone feel about going to 14 teams if we have enough interest? I'm not so sure I like it to be honest, but let's discuss. Also, Eric and GMML, are you two still interested in playing? Let me know one way or the other please.

[kingnat]

14 teams leagues are the boom. You actually have to know something about what you are doing because the drafting goes a lot deeper and teams get nailed for not having enough quality depth and also if you screw up your 2nd or 3rd round pick... you get poz'd hard. I <3 it.

[mrhappy333]

I have no idea what I'm doing so maybe it would suck for me?
I dont care either way.

NOOOOOOOO 12 teams. I hate 14, obv kingnat loves them because that's how he gets in!

My point exactly, it's supposed to be a moderately beginner league. Making people depend on esoteric sleeper picks to have an 7-7 season is annoying and most will quit playing by week 6

12 is too many, 10 is perfect.

[Trashcona]

Personally, I'd like to keep it at 12.

[a500lbgorilla]

Im fine with 12 too and don't really want to shift it to 10. I prefer 10, but if people really want in, 2 avid players won't hurt!

[LimpinAintEZ]

im okay with 12, happier with 10 - but 14 thins out the talent a TON - last year we did the 14 team thing and i think it just sucked....

although I do want Kingnat in again....maybe if kingnat joins another league, let me know? I only have 3 yahoo teams set up, so I can do another one...the 1 nice thing about football is it takes very little attention - Not like baseball or basketball where you have to pay attention every single day - so 4 teams is pretty easy to manage....

for Draft order - Computer will auto select the draft order 30min's before draft....I don't see any fairer way than that -

[Trashcona]

Made some changes to the defensive point structure and got rid of the 3rd WR(kept the WR/RB flex position). Personally, this is how I'd like to keep things. If anyone has problems or questions regarding the settings, let me know. Thanks

[a500lbgorilla]

Looks good.

Uh, i like to idea of playing a tourny to decide order. Maybe someone could set us up the private tourny on stars for as cheap as possible? (cuz my balance for online pokers is like 30 cents)

[mrhappy333]

tourney sounds interesting, 5.50 on starz is the cheapest I could make.

Maybe not too fair for us sucky poker players?

Actually I was the commish for the free league last year and made it a 14 team league on purpose because they are the mack-papa-shit-bomb-69!

[givememyleg]

ya i am

[Trashcona]

Ok, Eric has confirmed he will be signing up, so that's 12.

Second league anyone?

[kingnat]

Can I be first alternate?

[Trashcona]

Can I be first alternate?

Why don't we start a second league? I'm sure there's enough people to get one going. I'd certainly be interested.
11 people are already signed into this league and Eric makes 12, so I don't think there will be room for anyone else.

neg, you did it because you are a poor FF commish.

How about someone start this second league for money?

[Trashcona]

I predict Forms of Corn will be crowned champions of this league. That is all.
