I haven't did FF in at least 10 years. I'd be in for fun, just to get back into it again.
|
I would join a free league. Would prefer auction draft and yahoo or ESPN platform. But as long as it's free I'd be in.
You might need to post in the main lounge, this forum doesn't get much attention. |
Added you both! Assuming we hit 10+ I’ll send a PM to coordinate draft times. Also not a bad idea to post in the main lounge if we are short in a few weeks. Fortunately, we have a few weeks so a slow trickle is okay.
Also Noted your preferences Tye, will take it in conjunction with any additional feedback! |
I'm in.
|
I'd be interested.

Count me down if room. I'd also like to have a $5 or $10 ante to make it interesting.
Not looking for FanDuel part II just a little incentive. |
Added!
|
Consider me in. I am a FF junkie. And i prefer the NFL fantasy app or Yahoo, if its up for a vote. Just because I already use those platforms.
|
Added.
Got space for 2-4 more. |
I’m down to join. Think an auction league would be cool.
|
Sure! Sounds like fun!!
|
I'm going to Fantasy Football you guys so hard.
|
Added x2
2 spots left if there’s additional interest… but we can roll with 10 if needed (real men don’t FF with less than 10). I’d be cautious to force an auction style on the group as it’s a lot less friendly to the casual FF fan (was my intention for this league). Anyone whose done one before has an advantage over those who haven’t. But I’m not opposed to organizing a second league that will have an auction style draft and allowing cross registration. Thoughts? Anyone other than myself, Tye, and Ashhole interested in auction draft if there was a second league? |
I was never a fan of auction drafts, to be honest, but I do like them alot more than keeper leagues. If there ends up interest in doing it for a 2nd league, I'd do it but I'd prefer not for the primary.

I agree that auction drafts aren't easy the first few times. That's why I try one every year with randoms on espn in case I ever have to do one with my pay league. But even with all that practice I never immediately step away from one without several regrets.
Also, regarding a fee. I suggest that anybody that wants to buy in can and anybody that doesn't want to isn't eligible to win the cash. It would go to the highest finisher who paid in. And despite what I said earlier about me being in as long as it's free, I'd probably throw down $5-10 to play. And yahoo is the best fantasy football platform in my opinion. Especially on a computer (the apps are all pretty even). Although tbh, I haven't used the nfl platform in several years. |
Alright, made a few executive decisions…
This league:
I also just created a second thread for a second league that will be an auction draft format. I added those who expressed interest in this thread to the sign up. Anyone else is welcome to participate in both leagues if interested. |
Invites sent via PM - let me know if the links aren’t working.
Ignore the draft date for the time being, it is just a hold until we figure out what works best for everyone. Still have room for up to 2 more teams if anyone else is interested in joining. |

Also - still have up to 2 spots currently open if anyone else wishes to join. |
Added confirmed teams into my OP. Not sure who is the owner of “D’s Dandy Team” to put it with a name. Let me know and I’ll add you to the confirmed list.
(Edited out first name to protect identity) |
I wasnt sure if we were just using our user names here. If everyone is doing that i am not married to The Flamin Aids Dumpsters.
|
Don't think it matters! Mine was coincidental. The KFF look forward to kicking FAD's ass.
Last I checked, Still only at 7 teams officially signed up in Yahoo. Willing to give it another 7-10 days to allow for folks who may be on summer vacations / busy with work to join. |
Update: One of you Ashholes had to back out (not going to name any names…) so we are back to 9. I’ll give it a few more days then post on the main board looking for 3 more teams.
Good news: now have 8 teams registered Bad news: After the newest team has “otter” in the name, I’m now confused on who owns 3 of the teams because I thought otter was the second one signed up (after me). Doesn’t ultimately matter if we don’t know whose who… I just don’t know who to pester as the only person who hasn’t signed up. |

Still got room for 2 more if there is additional interest. If not, we can roll with 10 and perhaps spice things up by adding an extra flex or something to account for the smaller league.
|
Got an extra team, trying to figure out who owns it (think it may be Ashhole who backed out). Once that resolves, I think we will lock in at 10 teams since no one else has asked to join. Will give it another 48 hours before officially locking it down.
Two questions for the group: #1) Assuming only 10 teams - should we add an extra flex position to spice things up and offset the smaller number of teams? #2) Draft is currently set for 2pm CT Saturday August 21st. Does that not work for anyone? I’m fairly flexible on the 14th/15th and 21st/22nd. |

Proof that I was drunk when making that last post: I did the “math” behind converting the time across time zones wrong.
Draft is currently set for 12 noon AZ (currently PT) which is 2pm CT (and not 10am… I went the wrong way). 2pm good for a buzz? Want to go later? Target is having as many folks live as possible. |

I actually think I'm on vacation the 21st. I'll double check but I'm pretty sure. If I have to auto draft, so be it. I'm the king of the waiver wire anyway.
|
No magic to the 21st/22nd...
I can do the 14th/15th or the 28/29th or even a week night. There always going to be a few who don't show up... But I'm more than happy to adjust because someone knows they can't make it. |
I can start phase one of the ass kicking when ever its good for you ladies.
|
definitely go pm on a saturday

Alright, since I’m not getting much feedback on alternative draft times… let me know your preference between the three options below
Option 1: Saturday August 21st @ 2pm CT (current place hold) Option 2: Saturday August 28th @ 8pm CT (let’s Tye build a nice buzz to make poor decisions) Option 3: Thursday September 2nd @ 8pm CT (after final cuts & initial post pre-season signings) I think we should avoid Labor Day weekend (Sept. 3-6) due to the potential for travel and the first game is on the 9th. Doesn’t leave a lot of good options to draft after final cuts (Aug 31st), but I kinda like drafting before cuts/signings as it adds another layer of strategy/risk. |

That said, like any show, the writing and acting definitely improve as the series goes along. Lots of cameos with NFL players as the series progresses too which adds some entertainment. I’d say try watching the first 1-1.5 seasons again… but if it doesn’t pull you in, abort again. |

Option 2: Saturday August 28th @ 8pm CT
