My "friends" are idiots. Asked dozens of them whether they'd want to fill the last 4 spots for my league, and none of them bothered to even reply (so that's a no?).

So AT "friends", 4 spots left. Anyone?

Only one spot left.

is this a free league? PPR? snake or auction draft?

Yeah, that'd probably help wouldn't it:

Live Draft is scheduled for Wednesday, but I'm likely going to change it (autopick available).
It's a "pseudo-PPR" league.

I'm already in 3 leagues. I think I should contain myself before it gets out of hand. Sorry I'll pass :(
-1 pt for getting sacked?

I was looking for a league this year, it's always fun. If you still have room I'd love to join.

Seems like you think your "friends" are dicks for not responding, and maybe they are, but I do get tired of all the fantasy sport spam I get before each sports season (I even got an invite to an EPL fantasy league, WTF?).

Here comes a rant.

Every sport works different, and every league within those sports likes to have its own cute little custom rules.

I had a friend that did a keeper fanstasy hockey league a few years ago and he set up all kinds of rediculous custom rules for scoring. The upshot is that Milan Lucic ended being the 2nd most valuable player after Ovechkin. So the people who didn't realize how messed up the scoring was got mad and demanded a redraft. Just imagine all the email that was flying around at that point.

I'm sorry, I don't need the drama, I don't need the headaches, and I don't need to wakeup every morning trying to remember to put in roster changes. At the same time, I don't like saying no to my friends, so I usually end up in these leagues anyway, but put little effort into them beyond the draft. I guess your "friends" should have responded, but I understand why they didn't.

Interesting rules, if the draft time doesn't conflict with the other couple teams I have I'll go.

Did I miss it, or have you not said what the buy-in is?
Or is it free?

BTW, I'm in, unless it's like $50 buy in.

You two have PM's.

edro, no buy in, it's a free "fun" league - I wanted to check out NFL.com's FF setup this year.

lupi, current draft time has been changed to September 2nd at 9:30pm EDT. It is autopick if you can't make it.

Lol, at least it's 30 minutes before my other league. On the NFL site, good would like to check that out, plus since it's not yahoo I should be able to keep both sites open at once to draft.

BTW, draft time is NOT set in stone. Still tweaking it, trying to be mindful of everyone.

"... all kinds of rediculous custom rules for scoring."

I just noticed the difference between running and passing in this league, it's really skewed towards the running offense. IMHO yardage scores should be the same.

I will still have fun though, thats why its called fantasy.

It's a half-point PPR though. I did that on purpose so that PPR receivers and feast-or-famine wideouts would be on an equal footing (makes drafting WR's a little easier that way - that's my reasoning at least). Though I guess the half-point PPR does skew some RB's that are used more in receiving sets too.

Yardage is different, but with points for just catching the ball it gives some variance and decisions when picking. Say you have a player with 9 catches for 100 yards and a TD, the difference between here and a yardage points the same as running would be less than 2 points. Although I does limit the value of a guy that only makes 1 or 2 grabs with just good yardage but no TDs.

Let's face it... we're ALL going to be fighting over who gets to take Welker. Period. :biggrin:

eits, gibson - would you both be interested in the last two spots of my league also? It's on Yahoo ... I need 2 more to completely fill up the league.
