Fantasy Football 2006 (NFL)

Well, it looks like Yahoo really jumped the gun this time, or maybe football really is consuming all of our lives...

Regardless, fantasy football is back! I figured I would take the lead in creating this year's rendition of the famed EoFFFFL, which enjoyed an unprecedented level of competition last year. We can only hope to duplicate that energy again, but I think it won't be too hard.

I've set up the initial draft date on Saturday, August 27, which is approximately a week and a half before the start of the 2006 season. With any luck, we'll be able to set an agreeable date soon and be able to rest on our laurels until it's time to jump in.

OOC:	Where do you get those kickass thread Icons?

At the bottom of the Make Thread page, of course. :p

Go Team Venture!

I was to late to do this last year can i just ask how you like sign up and like what you do?

~Sora!

nobody should care about football until at least july, but alas. I'll sign up of course. Late August would be best for a draft for me since I probably won't have consistent internet access until then.

let's make sure m4tt knows about the league. And I'd rather do 12 team than 14 team.

Yeah, Idunno how to get ahold of that guy, so I'll leave that to you.

Also, hard to beat a Saturday in late August for a draft date, am I right?

I'm in.

EDIT: I'm "Fascist Footballers", for anyone in the league.

Yeah, I apologize last EOFFFF season; I was way to busy with other and I left the whole gang high and dry. I'm not going to enter in this year, because I still think I'm going to be busy like hell, especially juggling a job and school, but perhaps the next year over, I'll think about joining again.

But good luck to everyone who participates. :)

A Saturday in late august would be bad for me. Just telling you right now. Races and stuff.

But eh, I've only made one half of a draft out of three years of this so it's not like it's that big of a deal.

I'm in!

I was thinking about being the Pirates, with my city being the city of my favorite team. Hence, for basketball, I was the Phoenix Pirates. I was planning on being the Pittsburgh Pirates for football. Which sounded like a really good name for like 10 minutes.

So yeah, back to The Wizards, because I'm only capable of coming up with one new name every month. I may change it later if brilliance strikes me (doubt it).

Can we hide the id for now please? I want to make sure I can be confident that everybody who joins will be competitive. The demand for football is high enough that it's possible it would fill up before a lot of the regulars get to see this thread. It's only fair that people who have played and done well in the past should get the first crack at signups.

Which is why I seriously suggest (if there's more than one league worth of interest, obviously) two leagues, one for veterans to this, and one for not-so-veterans, with a couple of people in both to keep watch on it all. But that's only practical if you start getting to 20+ people interested, unless the second league's a bit small.

12 would be preferable to 14, I think, per league.

I suggested that to Fresno via pm, actually. :)

You could just edit out the ID, Deli. :p
