ok people only need 1-2 more ppl

im thinking of using espn instead of yahoo ( they are both free leauges but from waht ive read the espn leauges are better for football )

ok anyone else intrested ???

[Cage]

I would man, but my home computer issues and my lack of access at work has really screwed up the baseball league. But if you need one I will try.

[Daywalker]

ok cool cage is down so we got 10 (counting if ant-man is down for playing )

if we can get 2 more we can do a an espn league with 2 rosters and make 2 6player divisions which makes for easier playoffs in the head to head style ( if we cant we'll do it with 10 ) - anyone else intrested ?

[kirthew]

I would offer to run two teams.. *muahahahaha*

[madjazz]

Hey Ant-man! Are you in? It's free - wtf is there to think about? :laugh:

[Daywalker]

antman is def in too so are 12 are set - im goin to start setting up the league - u should all register for ur espn game accounts now ( just go to espn and click fantasy and follow the directions)

[wolverinejedi007]

do we sign up for the free public league or public edge league?

[Thing]

Im In if you need anyone else...

[Daywalker]

do we sign up for the free public league or public edge league?
dont sign up for any leagues - ill post the link when i set up the league - just go to espn and sign up for a espn game account ( its free ) so u can play fantasy on espn

[Daywalker]

Im In if you need anyone else...
we have our 12 but if someone drops out ill let u know so u can get in on it

[kirthew]

Already an ESPN insider... ready to go... as far as draft... Sunday's work the best for me...

[wolverinejedi007]

I am ready to go...lets draft!

This sunday is out for me unless its at night after 6pm est.

[Daywalker]

I am ready to go...lets draft!

i cant pick a day until this weekend when i get my work schedule for hte next 2 weeks - but it seems sundays are good for everyone ? anyone prefer another day ? honestly it would prob be better durign the week at night btu let the crowd decide

[wolverinejedi007]

Sundays are cool just not this one...

What She said!

[wolverinejedi007]

What She said!

Thanks miss :peoples:

[OneOne78]

I'm ready when you are.

[The General]

I'd rather Yahoo but ESPN is cool. What time on Sunday would the draft be? Sunday isn't too good for me depending what time the draft is.

[Daywalker]

from what ppl have told me espn is better tehn yahoo for football b/c of customizability - espn give u options for roster setup that yahoo doesnt - for ex yahoo makes it mandatory to start 2 qbs everyweek - espn doesnt

and the draft wont be this sunday - ill post more info when i get it

Cool.

[imthkman]

I'm ready when you are.

Me too.

[Daywalker]

anyone have suggetions on a prefered scoring style ??

[kirthew]

traditional.. just like they have it set up for...

[Daywalker]

alright league is almost all done - only that sucks about espn as opposed to yahoo is that i cant post a link for u to just clikc to sign up - each mgr has to be invited since the leauge is private ( i prefer the yahoo login/PW but w/e ) so if everyone can either post thier email address or PM mewith it so i can get ur invite out to u we can get set

as for draft ill have more info on that by monday - start studying boys

[Daywalker]

wow so far 1 person gave me thier email - lol

[wolverinejedi007]

Come on guys!!!

[kirthew]

wow so far 1 person gave me thier email - lol

Sent ya an email...

like I said in pm... the board has been spotty for two days with their maintence... first time I got on.. perhaps others are having the same problem...

[Daywalker]

sent invites to those that sent me their emails - still waiting on 7 more ppl

i propose the draft date be sunday aug 27th - its about 2 weeks form sunday - this way itll give everyone time to arrange their schedules to fit the draft and we can all make it - would during the day or ngiht be better for all ?

[OneOne78]

OneOne78@aol.com

[OneOne78]

Done!

During the day works best for me since I'll be in New York on the 28th.

[d rod]

sorry for not posting. if anyone wants to have a second league as a pay league, i'm down. we can do it yahoo and have it either $20 or $50. Add whatever paypal charges so the return can be exact or we just subtract paypal fees at the end (my guess this is the best way to handle it). I know a few people that would do it so right off the bat we have about 4 people into it. i can work on it this weekend. prize would be:
1st 60% of total minus half of 3rd place
2nd 40% of total minus half of 3rd place
3rd money back

free leagues kill me because there are always about 2 teams that don't follow and it sucks having to do their roster. nothing against them but at least we can take their money if they can't play!

there is actually only 1 open spot - i have a few invites that have been sent out that ppl havent registered for

[Thing]

When are we gonna pick the draft order.

[wolverinejedi007]

The draft order is already set. I think it is in the order of who signed up first...

[Daywalker]

the draft order is sent that way now but before our draft i will randomize it so its fair to all

[Daywalker]

ok just to update things :

we have 9 currently signed up - waiting on 3 to accept invite and have league set

the draft is set for sat aug 26th at 2pm EST

the draft order will be randomized to be fair - ill post draft order after we have all the teams signed up

[OneOne78]

3 more! :banghead:

[madjazz]

I want the first pick so I can select Ricky Williams. I hear he is a really good running back. :)

[kirthew]

I want the first pick so I can select Ricky Williams. I hear he is a really good running back. :)

No way... I want the first pick so I can select that awsome running back out of Kansas City... Priest Holmes.

[Daywalker]

[Daywalker]

[Daywalker]

still waiting for the general ............. :rolleyes2 :rolleyes2

[Daywalker]

ok now that the general finally signed up i randomized teh draft order and here it is:

Team Daywalker - 1
NJ Jedi-Cats - 7
Team Belcher - 5
Team Sanchez - 8
Booster Bashers - 9
Team OneOne78 - 10
Team Pasquale - 11
Team Rockheads - 2
The Warriors 3 - 12
The Sex Panthers- 6
Marietta Maulers - 3
Team AEPJR - 4


i swear this was random - i hit the randomize order button under draft options so i didnt give myself the first pick - and i was tempted to give general the 11th pick just cuz - lol - aight boys be ready for sat - try to get in a few mins early and test ur settings

GOOD LUCK

[wolverinejedi007]

random...sure its random... :inquisiti

[Thing]

Pick #2 Yeah Baby......

[imthkman]

#3 baby!! Assured of a damn fine RB.

[kirthew]

Yipppe... #9.. go team

[madjazz]

#11 kind of bites, but I also pick at #14, so that could be OK.

[Daywalker]

#11 kind of bites, but I also pick at #14, so that could be OK.
aye - those alst 2 spots arent that bad cuz u get an 11th and 14th pick as opposed to getting #1 and then #24 - not that im complaining about #1 :eplus2:

like getting that last pick is kinda sweet cuz u get the swing pick and basically go 2x in a row so its nice to be able to combo ur picks

[Volstagg]

:banghead: Yeah, real sweet to pick last but I'll make due

[kirthew]

:banghead: Yeah, real sweet to pick last but I'll make due

I will trade you draft positions if you want... you can pick #9th in the draft and I will pick 12th.

[Collection King 13]

#8 here...

[kirthew]

#8 here...

you are going to swipe Trent Dilfer from me aren't you?

[OneOne78]

Damn got stuck with a 10 spot.

[Thing]

Is everyone ready for tommorrow?

[OneOne78]

Is everyone ready for tommorrow?
Ready.

[wolverinejedi007]

Yep!!!

[Volstagg]

You bet, I just hope Mark Chmura drops to 12

[kirthew]

Yeap... I hope so..

[Collection King 13]

you are going to swipe Trent Dilfer from me aren't you?
:eplus2:

[Daywalker]

well i think im taking jay feely with the #1 pick - after al kickers go fast

[Thing]

anyone know the scoring system or how many players we need to draft ?

[The General]

It's almost time you bastiches!!!!! :buttrock:

[Volstagg]

I know we draft 15 and the scoring is under the rules section

[Thing]

Cool thanks...

Polish up my trophy now. I'll be by to pick it up in about 20 weeks. :thumbs2:

Stupid ESPN Live Draft.. hunk of junk...

[Daywalker]

Stupid ESPN Live Draft.. hunk of junk...
atleast ur team isnt as bad as CK13s :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

[OneOne78]

Atleast I got some QB's everyone else is ???????????

[OneOne78]

Stupid ESPN Live Draft.. hunk of junk...
I think yahoo is way better.

[sellin71]

atleast ur team isnt as bad as CK13s :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I think mine might be worse. I am going to get my A$$ handed to me in a hat.

[The General]

My teams okay I guess. I'm a fantasy football rookie so I drafted my kicker 5 rounds too early. It's all good though. The 2 players I really wanted I didn't get so I'm a little dissapointed.

[Daywalker]

I think yahoo is way better.
for drafting it is but as far as league options espn is better

[madjazz]

I don't think I did great, but I did not do too badly either. I think 2 of my 3 RB have the same bye week and 2 of my 4 WR also. I made sure my 2 QBs, Defenses, and Ks had different bye weeks.

I wish I knew if I really needed to take 2 Ks and Defenses. I'm glad I'm doing a free league for my first crack at fantasy football.

[Volstagg]

You did just fine fine Jazz for the 1st run at it. At least you didn't take Vick 8th

[Daywalker]

dont sweat it MJ - im new to fantasy football and im running the damn thing :banghead: :banghead:

[kirthew]

Open trade... Dominic Davis for a 2nd round receiver... you offer... I will judge and accept... I will trade for that asshat TO.. I will trade for Chris Chambers... get your 1st round running back here...

Edit: I will not take Michael Vick though.

Who needs a real defense?

On the trading block...

Atlanta def

E. James Ariz RB

Maybe we should start a new thread to trash talk & discuss trades etc....

Anyway who ever is interested make me an offer. No horrible CK13 offers either. You dirty bastich.

[madjazz]

Do we need to do anything in order to actually have our roster ready to go (for Thursday this week as that's when the season starts!)?

Is it enough that we have guys in our slots and guys on the bench? Is this default roster automatically accepted?

I know, it's more a personal thing. I didn't want James. I'm open to anything. Who ever needs a top RB just offer me a package and I'll check it out. I tried to get Westbrook from CK but he wanted James straight up. I guess I'm forced to stay with him unless I get a offer I can't refuse. But the Falcons def is definitely on the block. They're defense is going to shock allot of people this year. I would start em' all year but I have the Bears D. Anybody need a good Def let me know.

Offered you Lamont Jordon and Eddie Kennison... Let me know what you think.

One day left!

Can someone answer my question about how we lock in a line up for a week?

[Daywalker]

One day left!

Can someone answer my question about how we lock in a line up for a week?
mads its easy - just select the players u want for the week - in the drop down box put them as "active" - the rest place on the "bench" - then click the submit roster button - that will change ur lineup for what u want

[madjazz]

So whoever is currently active on my roster is my team for the week?

Theoretically, if I don't want to make any other moves, I can let my roster ride, and check back at the end of the year to see how well I did?

Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Odds in Vegas say whoever I play this week, my bench will score more points. :laugh:

exactly - once the week starts ur team will lock in those players and not allow u to make any changes untill next week
