As of right now we have 5 actual players signed up in the league.

I would like to have 12, BUT we may not be able to get 12 players.

I will keep the league open to new players until we either
A. get 12 players OR
B. early to mid- august then we will play with what we have, but have to have an even number of players.

The draft will be held as soon as one of the above is done.

Whether we get 12 players or we play with what we have, the draft will be about 2 days after.

Make sure you pre-rank the players. The draft will be an auto-pick draft.

I posted about how the draft works either here or on the league bored I can't remember which.

Hopefully draft will be by mid-august

I dont think you need all or nothing to play for a bit of cash. Say 2 or 3 people dont want to play for money, the other 9 or 10 throw in $25 and whoever finishes at the top takes the pot...easy, no?

You have a good point there! Like the commish said, lets work on getting the 12 players first. Almost 4000 members and the most popular sport in America and were struggling to get 12. LOL

Is there still room in the league? I've got to warn you guys, I'm pretty hardcore about my Fantasy teams!

Edit-

I just read that the draft will be autopick only. Is a live draft out of the question? I feel that if we are going to play for money we should at least be able to pick our players, Yahoo ranking does not always ensure you get the best player available at your pick. Just a suggestion.

A live draft would be cool, but with all the time differences and schedules I don't know how that would work out. It is up for discussion thou.

AJ I'm sending you a PM

Come on sports fans!

I am open to anything. However, good point with the time difference. It might be tough. Also, not sure how much knowledge everyone has as far as players. I'm above average with knowledge of players.

dimitre977 · 07-29-2008, 06:20 PM

I would like to get in. I would vote for live draft if we could work out timing issues.

**lazamus69** · 07-30-2008, 12:54 AM

Ideally, live draft is the way to go but even if we started drafting today it would be tough to finish in time for the first game of the season. 1st guy picks...maybe second guy is around to make his pick....3rd guy is away for work or the night. picks the next day. and so on 12x over just for the first round. Unless we ALL have a couple hours to set aside on the same day at the same time, live draft probably wont be feasible. I dont know, does somebody have any ideas of ways we can do it?
