We had a great time last year, those of us who did it, did we not? Would we like to do it again (my hand is raised)?

I know I got kinda competitive last year (and you didn't even witness me at home and all the yelling etc), but it's all good, right?:D

we need to create it pretty soon so we can get in on pre-season stuff.

So who's in?

Is there a primer somewhere? I don't quite know how FF works.

I really stunk last year, but I'm game to try again. I didn't do a good job choosing my team each week.

I also had an issue with that live draft, but we can talk about that later. :001_smile:

Here is the dumb thing. I was in the middle and it would start from either end so the first and the last person got first pick each round, but the middle person got 3rd or 4th pick each time. It seems like they should rotate who they start with. But, I suppose I am over it. :001_smile:

A WTM league is getting ready to be started up. If anyone is interested in joining for some fantasy football, but very real emotions when you're LOSING :lol:, let me know so we can get you on the team! BTW, we're not competitive at all ;):D:D:D

I'm looking at the set-up now, Mindy. We have the option to do a live draft or auto-draft. Would you prefer the auto? (We go in and rank the players we want, when everyone has done that the Computer does the drafting.)

My 14 yo twin boys are doing FF.

They are the experts when it comes to NFL football!

Blessings,

I think I'd rather do auto unless we can avoid that same situation from last year. Even though, it was kinda fun to watch what everyone was doing.

I like the idea of auto as well. See, I'm even wasting more packing time to get over here and find some more Football friends.

Bad Kay! No posting! Back to packing!

I'm pretty sure the reason that my team didn't make "the playoffs" last year was because of my position in the draft....and NOT because of the fact that I didn't know how to choose the best players OR because I didn't pay enough attention to my lineup each week!!!!! ;)

That was easy.

Now. We need a name for the league. Any suggestions?

I don't have any ideas and can't think of any just now since I have to go cry in the closet because my son apparently misplaced his school brains in the move (including that whole times table bit) and I'm in utter despair. But if anything comes to me, I'll post it.

Even better! There's a UNIT STUDY (http://www.sahomeschool.com/articles/Fantasy%20Football%20Unit%20Study.asp)! :tongue_smilie:

My boys are going to LOVE this.

Jeffrey has wanted to participate in a FF league for years. I think he and I will do this together.
