Great idea man, I'm stoked to be in on this.

Hope you enjoy my team name!

How about a live draft though?

National Felons League has kept enough players out of the klink to put on some games, eh?  No thanks.

You got it wrong- It stands for No Fun League.

Oh and take a look Rich Rodriguez coached two of those fellons.  Chris Henry and Pacman Jones.  Have fun Michigan.

I just realized that a live draft won't work because we are all scattered all over the place.  Sorry.

Bingo. Although we are having a local FF league do a live draft and having a big party for it...of course, I will spend most of the season watching Rugby anyway. :P

I'm down again.  Maybe I can dominate all year again and then get crushed in the championship game.  [laugh]

It's OK Jobu...I am hoping to suck it up for most of the season and then by some fluke make it into the playoffs again...

Where/how are you watching rugby, and what league (euro,nz,etc)?  I can't choose which is sport is better!  One of these days I will go out and join a rugby club.

Where is everyone?

Bump...

Would like to see 4 more teams as we are at 8 right now. Ultimately, 16 teams would make a great league...but I will settle for 4.

not sure when Ryan will hit the button, but it's an auto draft...easiest thing to do, given we're scattered all over the place.

Post by: ZLTFUL on August 24, 2008, 06:44:27 PM
I will it the button when we 1 get 12 teams or 2 are within 2 days of the deadline to get scoring for week one.

Once I hit the button the auto draft happens within 24 hours.

So that's what the button does.  I'll be damned.

The button's power knows no bounds and is only rivaled by the power that is Chuck Norris.

how about pushing the button already??

looks like eight teams is it.
Title: Re: Are you ready for some football???!!!
Post by: metallimonster on September 01, 2008, 09:44:07 AM
8 teams will  be fun.  Everyone should get really good players and weekly point totals should be high.  Lets wait until the end of the week though.
Title: Re: Are you ready for some football???!!!
Post by: ZLTFUL on September 01, 2008, 07:14:45 PM
Actually, I am going to go draft ready tonight.

Good luck everybody.

Ok, I joined up.

I don't follow the NFL or even watch it.

It's gonna be funny when I win.

[cheeky]

Post by: Rev. Millertime on September 01, 2008, 08:15:57 PM
Just realized i may have f'd things up.

My joining makes an odd number of teams.

Let me know if you want me to bail.
Title: Re: Are you ready for some football???!!!
Post by: Randimus Maximus on September 01, 2008, 09:50:15 PM
you just need to find a 10th now.
Title: Re: Are you ready for some football???!!!
Post by: ZLTFUL on September 02, 2008, 03:56:24 AM
Yeah...I tried to change a few things around and it wouldn't let me. We can't draft until we find a 10th or drop Wade...

BTW Wade, yer Hotmail account was hacked by some Chinese Viagra dealer. ;-)  [laugh]

I actually created a dummy team but if you can get a 10th, I will boot the dummy team for your friend.

He just bailed.

He says he can't handle a 2nd possibly 3rd team to manage.  I told him to do exactly what you did with the dummy team, but he's to proud to lose.

If nobody else has a problem with the dummy team, I'm glad I could stay on.   Never played fantasy football before.

Draft complete!

Looked at my team just now....  doesn't tell me shit!

[beer]  Here's to week 1!

I don't know if my team sucks, or if it's good.   [laugh]

Maybe you will get lucky and it will be both...good at sucking!  [evil]


Other than my QB, I think I got myself a competitor this season...Damnit and I ALWAYS put Payton as my first pick.  >:(
Title: Re: Are you ready for some football???!!!
Post by: Jobu on September 03, 2008, 10:53:52 PM
My recieving core isn't as strong as I had hoped, but I set my picks up to get two players:  Brady and Gates.  And I got them  [thumbsup]

So I'm happy.  Brady should be #1 again this year and last year the reason I lost any games at all was because I didn't have a tight end.  Took care of that this year.  And I have some very versatile RB's too.  Should be interesting.  Of course there are only ten teams (and one doesn't count), so everyone should have a decent team.

GIANTS VS SKINS WOOOOO CUTTING CLASS TO WATCH THIS GAME!!!


big question, i have spare money....enough for some really cool mods....or an  HDTV FOR FOOTBALL!!!! but blackfriday...... what do u guys think. moneys tight, only spending wise though.


the tv i want is a samsung 32" 720p or a vizio 32" 720p. $640 vs $500 tax free shipped online.

black friday, we can expect a TV price drop. so the samsung might be as low as 400 and vizio 300...... think of all the beer i can get.

Hell ya!  Go skins!  You should spend the money on high risk investments (poker/black jack/etc) and girls!
