Who's into Fantasy Football?

[Qdrop]

The buzz has already started around these parts....and the leagues are forming.....and the bitching has already begun (me included)...

anyone else on here into it?

[jabumbo]

i usually sport a couple teams myself.

a couple years ago, i was running a league, and was 8-0. then i faced off against the other 8-0 team and i got smashed. after that game i dont know that i won again that year


i have a knack for picking one or 2 real good sleepers, but then having 3 or 4 busts

[Echewta]

I would be more than happy to give up my position of last minute commish for the beastie boys football league if someone else wants to have Mars yell at them.

Hhaha, I had it so if your quarterback got sacked, you got two points. hehehe.

[Qdrop]

i don't want to be commish....but i'll join...

[Echewta]

great.

[skinnybutphat]

I'll be commish. That way I can yell at myself, along with Mars.
Anyone interested in an actual draft league?

[Echewta]

Live drafts are awesome if everyone can attend. Usually, thats not the case unless the league is with your drinking buddies down the street.

Yahoo?

[skinnybutphat]

The yahoo live draft has a chat. We could probably hook up a webcam conference kind of deal.

Don't yell at me, and I might join.

I can't think of anything good coming out of a live draft, but will acquiese, if the majority decides to do it.

[Qdrop]

cbs.sportsline.com

that is THE best online football league.

i used it last year....it's amazing...and easy.

You will only get yelled at if you sign up and don't participate. We in the business call this the 'BBMB_girl_inoverherhead' scenario.
I put my official vote on Yahoo, but I'm willing to check out Sportsline. Maybe Beth will actually participate then.

[RobMoney]

I've been playing for 5 years now and I've won the league 4 of those years and the one odd year I was in the championship and lost to a lucky punk.




.....I mean, uhh, WHY NO, I've never played before, EVER, but always wanted to, can I get in with you guys?



by the way, I'm not joining that league this year because it's just not competitive enough for me.

[Beth]

yeah, i couldn't be bothered when there was no live draft. mostly because i hadn't put time into picking my team, and then i just didn't care. i knew skinny would say something.

i always used cbs sportsline, but not the free one. i'd put in my portion and then we could just all get on messenger and open a chat room to be given the draft order and we can pick that way. i don't have time to be the commissioner, so even though i did it for 6 years straight, i'm not doing it now. i'm too busy at work.

[Loppfessor]

me me me!!...I'm already in or going to be in a few leagues this year. Won some nice money last year but that's not why I do it. I love football plus it helps to make the games I usually wouldn't give a shit about more interesting.

[jabumbo]

ill join here if you need someone, but im allready in 2, one that im running myself so i wouldnt have as much time to put into it

[RobMoney]

Is anyone going to organize this league?

[Beth]

tis qdrop's job. he brought it up.

[RobMoney]

I guess we'll have to wait until the morning then to see,

I think he only comes here during working hours


till the A.M. then

[skinnybutphat]

Vote for either Yahoo or Sportsline?

Yahoo

[RobMoney]

Sportsline gets my vote

[Rancid_Beasties]

AFL Dream team is where its at punks

eh...i don't have internet at home guys....i really couldn't be commish...plus i'm moving into a new house, and have a wedding/bachelor party to plan and be part of in late august (i'm the best man)...

i'll join the league.....but i can't run it...
it wouldn't be fair to all of you....

[RobMoney]

So far, it's

1. Qdrop
2. Jabumbo
3. Echewta
4. Skinnybutphat
5. Marsdaddy
6. Beth
7. Loppfessor
8. Me


I guess we could do 8 teams, but I'd prefer 10. I'm sure we could find more people. And I'd really insist on a LIVE draft.



Does CBSsportsline have a free league, Yahoo does but it looks like the free league is lacking. I would consider being commish, but I'm not fronting $130.00 for the league fee.

[Qdrop]

nfl.com has a free league....

but i would do the yahoo one too...

[Loppfessor]

Whoa....hey I didn't say I was "in" I mean I probably would be but still. Anyway we went through CBS a few years ago and it was awesome. They do all the work for you. Don't we still need someone to be commissioner?

[Loppfessor]

PS live draft is definitely the way to go cept it would be hard with the time differences.

Dude,....are you in or not?

[skinnybutphat]

Vote for league?

I'll be commissioner if it's a Yahoo league. I cannot guarantee it won't be a league ravaged by greed, and corruption, but at least you won't get points for having your qb sacked.

1. Qdrop - Yahoo
2. Jabumbo - ?
3. Echewta - ?
4. Skinnybutphat - Yahoo
5. Marsdaddy - ?
6. Beth - Sprortsline
7. ? Loppfessor - Sportsline
8. RobMoney - Sportsline

[Echewta]

Sorry, I've done both and happy with both. I'm on the fense.

[skinnybutphat]

Pick yahoo and I'll give you the first pick in the draft.
