Okay, now that things are back to normal around here, let’s get this fantasy football league all locked down.
First, the players:
Chris
AllenOU
Truth
nactexanfan
KD
AmericanIdle
Battle Red Bill
Tailgate Andy
KO
Doc P
Lumberjackato
LA26
StevieWonder
Gerb
The majority was fine with 14 players, so StevieWonder and Gerb are in.
We will host the league on Yahoo, which it seems like most are fine with – and that helps because it’s the only one I know, and if I’m going to run this thing that will make it a little easier.
This is not a money league. It’s purely for braggin’ rights. When money gets involved, it becomes work, not fun.
I would like to do PPR, but I’d still like some more feedback on that.
We will do a snake draft, no auction.
We’ll determine the draft through random selection. I’ll find an unbiased party to do the drawing – maybe since BRB is also finalizing their own fantasy football league, I’ll ask one of the BRB guys to do the random draft for our league – and if they’re also going to do a random draw, I’ll volunteer to conduct theirs.
If anyone here has changed their minds about participating, or thinks they won’t be able to handle managing their team every week – let me know now so I can let someone else in.
Expect an email soon, and we’ll figure out when our live draft will go down. It would be great to do it in person, but I live in Austin, and I’m sure we’re all pretty spread out – so we’ll settle on a time to all get online and do this thing.

All Right!!
PPR?Not sure what that is? Sounds like limiting us to position per round?Grrr…lol
I always steal Andre Johnson in the first round >.<

Everything sounds good. I got the email, I will join when I get off of work. They block those kind of things here at work.

Sounds good. Stallworth is my sleeper so nobody take him.

Allen asked about defensive players…
Right now I’m waiting for four more players to accept the invitations I sent out – then the very first order of business I want to tackle is the draft time. After that we can talk rules, rosters, etc.

The players who haven’t accepted the invite yet:
LA26
KDGerbAmericanIdleOnce those four have accepted and created their teams, we’ll start talking about a draft day.

I’ve accepted the Yahoo invite.
I know I’m the last team you guys let join this league so I’m not sure how much weight my vote has but I’ll put in my two cents nevertheless. NO TO DEFENSIVE PLAYERS!!!
Aug 9, 2009 at 21:34:02
Everyones votes are equal. I say no to defensive players to
Aug 9, 2009 at 21:47:09
I didn’t know everyone’s votes were equal…

My Bad. I’m in now. Looked over the settings and the only thing i wouldn’t be for is the Defensive Player. D/ST is cool though.
