Just one flex position (rb/wr). The dog dayz in the middle of the season with injuries and all get pretty hectic sometimes.

I would join the league guys, because I'm a MAJOR NFL addict, but I already have like....10 leagues. :-)

What can I say, I'm a junkie. :lmao: I will most definitely join a CC league next season though, and I will win. Count on it.


PS: Favre's back if you didn't know already... ::) Surprise, surprise.

I hate the Diva.

I think I have it set to have 2 RB's & 3 WR's as starters.  You mean make one of the WR's a "flex" position or add a "flex" spot?
Title: Re: CC Fantasy Football League 2010
Post by: Tucker on August 19, 2010, 10:13:45 AM
Either add a spot or make one of the WR a flex spot. Open up some options.

The other leagues I was in had a Tight end position and one had a defensive player but that one was a waste.

First, we need an extra team. Second, would it be okay with everyone if Ralph moved back the draft start time an hour?

Hour or hour and a half would be great.

Yahoo is saying that we have to have an even number of teams to hold a draft.

Yeah. I would have preferred at least 8

I have never played one, on line.  But I did play back in the day on paper.  I haven't done any research this year, but if you need anyone in a pinch, and you are ok with me being a newbie, I would. 

I have to go to my Neighborhood Association Meeting, but will be back in 2 hours.  (Not an HOA, but we get great crime reports....need to find out if the gangs are infiltrating)

Let me know, if you need to even it up, I will do what I can.

Just lemme know what I need to do.  I saw Odin post this thread link in the shout box yesterday, and didn't realize the request for another team was the day before.  Not wanting to muck things up, just help out and make it even.  I'm cool.

You're fine. We couldn't hold the draft because of an odd number of teams. Now that we're even, we will reschedule the draft.

Hey Neal, wanna take my place?  I don't want to hose something up not knowing anything.  I am sure I can delete my profile with no prob.  I would rather have someone in who knows what they are doing.   :-)

No thank you, the more, the merrier.  If no one else would like to play, I will sit it out.  The only way to learn the game is to play. 
Title: Re: CC Fantasy Football League 2010

I created a salary cap league. Any number can play. Give it a try. It's fun.

Follow link for sign up info. We can't seem to get a fantasy football league going, so this is not dependent on even number of teams.

I moved the draft to 5:30 Central tomorrow night.  The draft times are nearly completely filled up.  If you all want to move it back to Thursday or later in the week(yeah, we'll miss a game, but the stats will count), we can do that.

Let me know your thoughts.

Simce I'm half a world away is there a way my part of the draft can be set to automatic?

It's based off of how I ranked my players right?

Yes, you can pre-rank your players.

Any other thoughts on a date/time to move the draft?

It would be an auto pick, based on your rankings along with open positions. If both RB positions are filled and your next highest ranked position is a RB but you have an open WR slot, then your highest ranked WR player would be selected.

I'm not totally sure.  In Yahoo baseball leagues, the commissioner can change a setting allowing retroactive stats.  I would imagine they'll have something similar for football.  I guess we'll find out soon enough.  I'll take another look.

I am cool with whatever.  I did already log-in. 

Y'all are gonna so beat my ass. :-)

And, do I have to pick my peeps every week, like I did on paper, before time began, or do I just pick one team, and that is it?

Appreciate it.  Played before, but on paper, and it was a bit different, I could only pick one position per week.  Looks like this one I can do more than that.  If we start at week 2, that means NEXT week, right? I don't want to mess that up too!  :)
