For $ or For fun?
I'd be in for either.

For fun.
Edit: Although I don't think I'd mind if we did something where like everyone pitched in like $10-$20 on PokerStars or something, and if we get 10/12 teams doing like an 80/20 split between 1st/2nd, or even Winner take all.

I'm always game for Fantasy football... but I'd rather play for SOME amount of money. Even if it's relatively small (e.g. $20 or something)

So you click their picture and then you get their money?

I'm in for fun. Or like 10-20 bucks.

The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

12 is a really good number. i'd say espn is better than yahoo because you can get live stat updates without paying for it.

you can also get live updates with CBS Sportsline. I have used that one for years and love it (although it isn't free to register a team)

Some of yahoo's scoring might be suspect also.
In one of my fantasy baseball leagues on yahoo this week for the batting average category, my team was 29/104 which is about .278846 and my opponent went 24/86 which is about .279070 but it rounded both to .279 and called it a tie.
I've had similar situations on espn where ERA's for both teams are the same after two decimals but where espn gave the win to the correct team.

I want a league with standard scoring. 6 points for a td, 1 point for 10 yards rushing and receiving, whatever is standard for passing. I also don't want to play in a league where you get 5 receivers or some shit. I also don't want to pick individual defensive players, just one teams defense.
Can you make this happen? I also like to gamble so if anyone is starting a separate money league let me know.
K thnx

with yahoo, we can do custom scoring of course, but if you guys truly don't want to do yahoo, we can do espn or cbs or w/e, but i'm not familiar with anything else really, other than yahoo. thoughts, gents?

why isn't this made yet? gosh I'll make one now, we can decided on a live draft time later (maybe on some sunday afternoon before or after the gauntlet)
This one will be for fun/bragging rights if people want to do a money league they can make one too.

ok, I made an ESPN league, PM me your email and I'll send you an invite
(it has the default espn scoring settings now but I can edit something later if we want to change it. also the default number of team is 10 which i think is the best number but if 12 people want in I can add teams also)

We have 7 people who have joined the league and Massimo, kingnat, will, and Ragnar should check their email for invites. That means we have 11 people so there is only 1 more spot open. We still have yet to decide whether or not this will be a money league, we can talk about that on the league page or in this thread.

Alright guys, I think we are gonna go ahead with having the draft this Sunday, August 3 at 1pm EST. I know it's early but it seems like it's the best time for everyone. Also, the league will be for $20. Finally, kingnat has not joined the league yet and has not replied to my PMs. If he doesn't join, then the draft won't run since our league wouldn't be full. If anyone knows someone that would be available on Sunday and also would be willing to play for $20, then let me know ASAP and we can replace kingnat.

well I may as well just ship the $20. I can't make the draft on Sunday so I will prolly end up with 3 Def's, 8 TE's and no QB or RB
