Fantasy Football 2005

[Hawkeye]

I love the game football, but I'm quite a noob when in comes to Fantasy football. I signed up, so I'll get my brother in law to explain this to me, since he's TOTALLY into fantasy football

OMGWTFBBQ

[Strider]

Okay, here's what we'll do.

The cutoff will be fourteen teams, because Del makes a good point. With 16 teams, we won't even get a chance to play every other team because of our playoff schedule. That means there's space for one more person that wants in, everyone else is SOL unless someone decides to back out for whatever reason.

Also, since it doesn't seem like the AIM conference idea didn't receive overwhelming support, we'll stick with the Yahoo draft, which means the draft will be on a Saturday.

EDIT:

Okay, we've got Mr. McAwesome to fill the last spot, so we're all set unless anyone wants to send me twenty bucks to convince me to let 'em into the league. I mean, um... >_>

Also, if no one has any objections, we can pick our draft order by pulling names out of my trusty San Francisco Giants hat. Yea or nay?

Go Team Discovery Chan.!

I hope I get the best player in the leauge in the draft again. That way I can ride him through the first half, and then be crushed when he gets hurt mid-way through with a season-ending injury. Hey, it's happened the last two years.

[Strider]

You could always not draft Priest Holmes.

[Del Murder]

It doesn't matter, who, really. Spiff also needs to get Chirs Chambers so that he can drop him and Spuuky can pick him up. This is also tradition.

14 worked well last year so I approve of this. No Rocko, no 4, no Proto. That's half of the people who have ever made the playoffs. You guys have big shoes to fill!

[RSL]

I hope I can fill their shoes!

Oh I guess I will miss the draft yet again. Such is life.

[Strider]

Does anyone care if I determine the draft order RIGHT NOW?

[Hawkeye]

Can you wait till like this weekend?

[Strider]

Yeah, sure.

*bides his time*

[Del Murder]

Why does it matter when he does it?

I hope I get 2nd. That will be the easiest pick in the draft.

[Hawkeye]

I would tell you Del, but then I would have to cower in shame. I dont expect you to understand what this statement means either.

[Raistlin]

Is it natural for me to be more nervous about the draft than about the actual season? I just know I'm going to screw it up.

[Del Murder]

If you are concerned about the draft you could always let Yahoo do it. It's drafted me two championship teams.

[RSL]

It drafted me some pretty good receivers last year.

[Strider]

Nah, forget it. I can't wait any longer. I'm the Commish, dang it, and I'm gonna determine our draft order right now!

I figure that also gives us all a little under a month to plan our draft strategy. I'll draw names out one at a time, with the first name being drawn receiving the last (14th) pick in the first round. Then we'll go 13th, 12th, 11th and so on and so forth. Any objections?
