It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Veeshan Vault NFC
Taking the next 9 people.
Hello Grizz,
This is to confirm that you've created the Custom League named Veeshan Vault NFC and the team called Sleazy Cheese in that league.
To allow other managers to join your league, send them the League ID# and Password. In your case, the ID# is 74765 and the Password is veeshan.
You have chosen for your league to take part in a live online draft on Sun Aug 29 3:00pm PDT. Until that time, you (and only you) can change the type of draft by using the Change Draft Type option found among your Commissioner Tools, which can be reached from your League Overview page.
If you choose to remain in a live draft, please arrive at the draft 10 minutes ahead of the scheduled time. The draft will start promptly and may conclude rapidly if only a few managers are logged in.
We also suggest that all league members custom rank their players in case a manager can't make it to the draft. Managers can do this at any time by simply going to the Fantasy Football home page and clicking on their team name.
Thanks for joining. Good luck.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
The "real" leagues I'm in hold their championship games on week 16 to avoid playing games when the best players are sitting on the bench. It's retarded to hold your championship game during the last week of the NFL season due to the way the NFL operates.Taison Earbiter wrote:

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Everyone is under the same set of rules. The question is how you adapt to those rules. If you can plan for events that you know are coming you should fare well but if you can't plan past the regular season then you get what you get.
That said, if this were a cash league I'd be more inclinded to agree but only slightly. If there is a setting that anyone feels does not add to the competitive nature of the game or is deemed too difficult to overcome or comprehend, I will change it. It should be a unanimous decision (excluding my vote). This needs to be done before the season begins however.
Some view the obstacles as impossible while others consider them challanges.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
You can easily plan for the playoffs...week 14-16, but you really can't plan for the randomness of your players sitting on the bench week 17..which would never happen in a real Super Bowl. It's well known that week 17's in the NFL are mostly garbage time. I still evaluate strength of schedule...vs running game..vs passing, etc during week 14-16 and do plan my draft around that somewhat...favoring players that are going up against pancake defenses during those weeks...that's different than Week 17 which is just plain lame and unpredictable.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
In the Aluminum Curtain's heyday, I drafted to have the best players on marginal teams that would be fighting for playoff spots in the last week of the year. I will never take one of the Colts players....or one on a team that has a history of laying down.
Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Which is fine. I'd rather have the championship in week 16 where there's still some skill involved even with planning ahead during the draft for strength of schedule during the final weeks...that's still different than week 17 which is almost always a lame week for football...not worthy of determining a championship based off coaches sitting players.Kilmoll the Sexy wrote:In the Aluminum Curtain's heyday, I drafted to have the best players on marginal teams that would be fighting for playoff spots in the last week of the year.

Don't care in this league but I wouldn't go for a week 17 championship game in a money league for sure.
Consider this post an observation more than bitching.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
I was worried at first but then I had to remind myself that it is only early July and that there is plenty of time left. Then again you just know that the season will sneak up on you faster than you thought.Taison Earbiter wrote:Only 6 teams signed up so far, we're all making the playoffs!
Edit: Here's an odd thought. You guys want to make this a 32 team league? It'd have to be autodraft though just to be fair to everyone. We'd be playing 4th string scrubs.

Only 3 spots remain. If there is enough demand I could expand the league to 12 teams.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
We need either 1 more team to make it even or 3 more teams to make it a full league.
*EDIT* Draft is in 32 days. We need 1 or 3 more teams. Last year we had two leagues or 20 teams and now we only have 8.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
If draft day approaches and we're still sitting at an odd number of teams, I'll drop to make it even. I'm already in 5 other leagues.
(Obviously if we have an even # then I'll stay in to kick your asses )

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
I think my win streak will come to an end after this weekend. I am very surprised that I am 7-0. I haven't had that great a start in years in any of my leagues. So that should all end this week I am thinking. I just wish I was doing this well in my cash leagues.

I wish Chris Johnson would show me why he was my #1 pick.. quite disappointed in him so far.. but overall pretty happy with my season for my first time.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Coaching this soccer team is killing my chances in the fantasy football league. We have games on Saturday and Sunday and I never remember to make the changes on my fantasy team.
When I was younger, I used to think that the world was doing it to me and that the world owes me some thing…When you're a teeny bopper, that's what you think. I'm 40 now, I don't think that anymore, because I found out it doesn't f--king work. One has to go through that. For the people who even bother to go through that, most assholes just accept what it is anyway and get on with it." - John Lennon

Yes! Avenged my Week 1 loss to Bubba that Arian Foster robbed me of with his 45 point game.
I'm coming for #1!

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Just fyi, this is my last year in this league. Half you slackers don't even sub out injured players and those on bye. I mean I'm in 5 leagues so I don't really pay much attention to this but damn, I take 60 seconds a week to make sure I have a full team playing. =p

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Yah not sure if I'll run it next year or not. Years past we had an over abundance of people wanting to play. This year we struggled to get 10 people. We shall see. I'm in 6 leagues myself this year and I am hoping to cut it down to my 2 cash leagues. I can only deal with so much as far as conflicting emotions go. Cheer or not Cheer.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Yeah, that's what it came down to for me as well, Ox. Too many rosters to keep track of, too many injury reports, too many free agent pools. I do my two local pay leagues, in one of which I am assistant commish, and that's about all the fantasy football I can enjoy in one season.

Re: It is that time of year again...FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Agreed. I mostly focus on my paid league. It's highly active with people I've known for 20+ years. There's also a "severe" penalty for finishing last in the league which keeps people playing no matter what to avoid the shame the following year at the draft. It's the beer wench award. The last place team member dresses up as a beer wench and serves beer to the other 11 members of the league during the next year's draft weekend festivities. It definitely helps keep all league owners involved!
Bubba did a nice job trying to keep this league alive but it tends to take a back seat to more focused Fantasy leagues the participants are involved in.

I can't believe Matt Schaub was my third pick. I nearly busted a nut when I noticed I could finally cut his ass.

I'm not in this league, but Randy Moss was my second. Ryan Clark was my first. I feel your pain.Spang wrote:I can't believe Matt Schaub was my third pick. I nearly busted a nut when I noticed I could finally cut his ass.

Moss was my third, and Chris Johnson is proving to be the worst #1 pick imaginable.. Bradshaw is getting more points than him..

If we're talking QBs, what the hell happened to Peyton Manning? First 9 games of the season he throws 4 Ints, last 3 game it's 11 Ints.
