HERE WE GO!!!! The league is now registered...

go to http://fantasysports.yahoo.com and click on fantasy football, just make sure that you click on the free league, not the ones that will charge u.

You want to then click on "join an existing league".

League id number: 191297
password: birdman

The live draft times are running out, so AS OF RIGHT NOW I have the draft time set up for Wednesday, August 6th at 8:25 PM eastern time. This is of course as flexible as we can possibly make it, so if people need it changed I can definitely see what I can do.

After you make your team name, etc, it will allow you to go into the league overview page. Be sure to go there and look for and click on "league settings", then you can see what I set up for the scoring system, and how the teams will be built.

ANY comments or opinions please definitely lemmie know. Drop a PM my way, reply on here, or whatever, just let me know.

Any ????'s as well.......gimmie a shout.

the draft time is perfect for me! it pretty much couldn't be better. how is it for everyone else??

starseed_10 · Post by **starseed_10** » 7/26/2003, 1:26 pm

question: how do the player positions work? do we pick any 14 players we can get and choose 7 of them to start every week to fit the positions?

Yup! So just make sure you have backups to fill the voids..........I just made a quick decision on the complete size of the roster so that can be flexed.

How does everybody else feel about having 2 starting QB's and 2 starting RB's??? I just left it at one to keep it "semi" realistic, but it can be changed if majority agrees to change it. Let me know....

either way is good.

edit: good job rob! now everyone post your thoughts on August 6th at 8:25...?

bort8 · Post by **bort8** » 7/27/2003, 12:24 am

its just an idea...another thing is to have like 1 qb 2 rb's and 3 wr's.....it kinda feels like a waste to have all that bench space....but thats just me...im cool with whatever

ok, so another suggestion, which would you guys prefer???? It seems most fair to me to go majority rules rather than just a simple sway of vote.

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 7/27/2003, 7:39 pm

i like how its setup right now myself but 3 wrs and 2 rbs would be cool for sure

I need at least two people to join my league tonight and draft tomorrow. Is anyone here willing? Leave a message in here or hit me up on AIM. I'm BleedToPleaseYou. I'll give you the info there. Thanks.

starseed_10 · Post by **starseed_10** » 7/27/2003, 8:09 pm

I'm interested. I'd probably have to miss the draft cause of work, but i can just pre-rank.

I don't know much about the wheeling and dealing side of football, but I started my own franchise in NFL2K3 to see what it's all about, and I'm loving it. I've got Donovan McNabb, Jerry Rice, and Marshall Faulk signed to the New York Jets, it's working out quite nicely.

what the hell ill go in on it.

that makes 12 i think

areusad831 · Post by **areusad831** » 7/28/2003, 9:41 pm

how many players should we have total?

2 starting QB's, 2 Starting RB's, how many WR and TE?

how many for the bench as well.

you think we could make the draft later at night, like 10?
