    Default Fantasy Football 2005

    Ladies and gentlemen, the fun has arrived.

    Well, the hype has, anyway. Eyes on Final Fantasy fantasy football is back! Although the season doesn't start for... oh, another two months, it's never too early to get into the game. As commissioner of the 2005 edition of the EoFFFFL, I extend an invitation to anyone that wants to play that just hasn't signed up already.

    League ID: 35132
    Password: aaronrodgers

    Just head to Yahoo Fantasy Sports, click the sign up button (be sure to click the one that says free fantasy football), enter the above information and get ready for a competitive season!

    For everyone that's signed up already, feel free to talk trash and, more importantly, discuss the scoring and all that in case there's something you disagree with.

    Also, since it seems that it will be difficult to find a draft date on Yahoo that can accomodate everyone, I thought that we might be able to make our picks over an AIM conference or in #eoff or something like that, and then I could post the real-time results to reflect the players we draft. It is possible to hold a draft elsewhere and then post the results on Yahoo, I did it last year as the commish of a different league. This method won't tie us to Yahoo, which might be better, anyway.

    If it sounds like a good idea to you, let me know. Either way, please let me know the nights of the week that will work best with your schedule. A draft just isn't as much fun if everyone isn't there!

    I am prepared to defend my crown, but 16 teams? I thought 14 was too many. And we already have 10, not even including Romeo and three of the playoff teams from previous years. Who are some of these people, Fres? Each and every one of of you better play hard, or else. *enforce mode*

    I thought of another great idea.

    Slight variation on my first idea, except we phone in our picks one at a time! Hey, that's how the pros do it.

    There should also be 15 minutes between picks so that the draft lasts three days.

    Wait, what's wrong with the normal yahoo draft again? Sure, some people may not be able to make it(hey, I might not even), but that's what "pre-draft rankings" are for.

    Although I am all-for calling in picks to keep Fresno busy for days. But we also have to be able to trade picks - and Fresno has to keep everything updated.

    You can't trade picks unless this was a new feature added to Yahoo this year.

    I doubt we can for Yahoo. But I meant if we called in our picks, we also should be able to trade. I mean, otherwise why do you need the whole 15 minutes?

    No. Strider just made a public thread to mock you with our elitism.

    Yes we welcome all new comers who will join, complain about the draft time, and then promptly forget about the league after the second week, not without trading all their good players to Fresno and champ in beforehand.

    Anyone who ignores the league this year will get a personal ass kicking from me.

    You should put that in your Smack Talk, Rizzle.
