[akhhorus]

Im keeping it at twelve, but if there is more interest, and the league can be bigger; then obviously it will expand. And I encourage trash talking.

[bfauble83]

Are you guys looking to a live draft, offline draft, or autopick?

[akhhorus]

Are you guys looking to a live draft, offline draft, or autopick?

considering it would be next to impossible to organize a live draft, I think the auto pick would be best(you rank who you want and the computer chooses).

[fent]

i think if we put it out there now we could get a live one set up...akh are you the only one not in the DC metro area? if you are then maybe you can make a trip up and we can have a live draft so we can talk trash and drink beer together in person :stout:

That would be tough. I still think the best two options, since we're doing this through yahoo; is to do the autopick option, or to organize a time where we can be all online on yahoo to pick.

[RedskinsDave]

I'm in.

[RedskinsDave]

Try and do a live draft on-line. For those who can't make it on they can rank the players.

I always get screwed when its an auto draft i would like to do on live if everybody can get together thats my vote, i like daves idea, thanks for putting this together akhhours.

[LA56Redskins]

I vote for a live draft on yahoo. Those that cannot make the draft can still pre-rank players. The trash talking is always better if it begins during a live draft.

[akhhorus]

good idea: one spot left.

[akhhorus]

and the scoring will be the "head to head" style. I like the pure stats one, but head to head will be more fun for us(and more trash talking)

[suppitty]

obviously I will.
no need for sass.

[akhhorus]

no need for sass.

wasnt sassing.

the only trash talking that beats this is if you do it live and in person with alcohol involved...usually around the 5th round you get the first "alcohol induced" pick. one basketball league i did a couple years ago the guy with the first pick was so hammered by the time we started that he took bobby sura with the first pick because he was going to have a "breakout year"...i don't think he's had a drink since...we gave him SOOO much hell

this is why we'll hold the draft on the weekend so we can get liquored up as we do it.

now that's what i call forward thinking!!! when are you planning on holding this thing? i don't really want to have another incident where i draft jamal lewis and his knee goes out two days later.

[akhhorus]

The Yahoo FFL opens at the end of July(I think), so lets hold this after the first two Preseason weeks. That should take care of most of the Preseason injuries.

[ScalpinSteve]

I'm definetely in - just found hR, but i'll be here for a while. And I'm more than willing to whoop some tail in fantasy... binglesa@hotmail.com

[akhhorus]

No more spots open for now...

[akhhorus]

obviously, you're in ScalpinSteve; but for now, it's closed. Please watch for updates here...

[JoeJacksonTaylor28]

i will, on a 357 bullet....
I'm still laughing about that....

[JoeJacksonTaylor28]

I also vote for the Yahoo online option....

[akhhorus]

I'm still laughing about that....


and I have three more guns to choose from.

[NamVet4]

Welcome aboard ScalpinSteve !

Glad you joined us and glad you're gonna stick around !!!

[Ramsey2Moss]

Well akh, since urs is full I think I'll make another one with ppl on here. If anything opens up though, let me know.

[smoot]

most of those guns are probably pointed at my groin (dont think i missed the gun reference akhhorus

[akhhorus]

I have sent out pms to all members who wanted to be in this league, there are three extra spots still available to anyone who wants them.

[ScalpinSteve]

Hey - sorry for the long response... I've been in Tucson, AZ for the past two weeks laying tile at my mom's new internet-lacking house. Just signed up, though. Look forward to killin' it!

[padraic]

this is a 16 team league correct? should be fun looking forward to it.

[akhhorus]

this is a 16 team league correct? should be fun looking forward to it.

yep, we just need one last person so we dont have someone on a bye week...

[akhhorus]

and we're closed up......LET THE TRASH TALKING BEGIN!!!

[Ramsey2Moss]

Lets do this folks. Portis N Coles in the house and ready to make noise!

[padraic]

I was just looking at the scoring and i think it says 2 pionts per reception but you have to throw 50 yards for 1 piont that does not seem right to me, please tell me im wrong! Also how much time between picks when we draft live someone may not be there i could be a very long draft.

Im telling you, you're wrong. it's 20 yards per point on recieving yards. It's 50 yards per point on "passing yards".

[akhhorus]

and the draft was moved by yahoo to 3 pm on Sat. July 24th

[Ramsey2Moss]

ok cool ill be there.

[padraic]

good to know im wrong as always do you get ant pionts for recps

[akhhorus]

and we might need someone to replace Ramsey2Coles, anyone interested?



Nevermind...

[GolfFreak]

3 pm on Saturday ... cool

[IndianBaller27]

I just hope my sister isn't using the comp

[padraic]

one last time i want to make sure im seeing this right, Two pionts are given per reception correct? This is kind of different for me never seen so many pionts for a catch....a two yard pass out of the back field is worth two pionts just want two make sure my eyes are not telling me wrong, its cool with me just want to make sure it is wright.

yes, you get two points per reception. Also I made it so you lose a point everytime your qb is sacked.

[IndianBaller27]

It looks like the scores are gonna be really high.

[GolfFreak]

akhhorus - you may want to update the league's start time ... worried that if it stays noon on Saturday it will auto-draft for everyone.

Also, how far in advance will the draft order be set?

benjamce...the draft is at 3.00 pm saturday. The draft order will be set 30 minutes before the draft.

[GolfFreak]

benjamce...the draft is at 3.00 pm saturday. The draft order will be set 30 minutes before the draft.

I know, but I was just on the site and it said noon.
Thanks.

[akhhorus]

I know, but I was just on the site and it said noon.
Thanks.

I just checked it...again..and it says 3.00 pm.

[GolfFreak]

OK - maybe I'm seeing noon pacific time.

[IndianBaller27]

Well..... Today's the big day!!!

[IndianBaller27]

Draft starts in 2 hours!!

[GolfFreak]

Yeah baby - get ready ... wish the order was set, guess I have to be patient.

[IndianBaller27]

Yup but just another 35 mins until the order will be set

[IndianBaller27]

Are y'all ready?!?!

[IndianBaller27]

Steal of the draft.....



SULTON MCCULLOUGH!!!

[padraic]

What a bad draft that was, guys end up with 3 QB's in the first five picks, i know it was the computer but ughhhh..............i did like the fact that we had fourteen teams really had to look to get solid picks, it is a real help this year to be in the front of the draft order, most years i like being in the back but not this year. I hope the league goes better then the draft.

ok ok everyone knows the 3QB's was me.. and yes i had to run away from the computer and the damn thing chose Bulger when i was going to choose a RB. it sucks for me more cuz i lost a chance to draft a good RB but instead got a 3rd QB and wasted a spot just to have some luxury. if anyone wanna trade for Bulger i'll listen...

dont feel bad, the funniest was when IndianBaller ran to the bathroom and just missed his pick. Or ScalpinSteve getting the last pick on his bday. Ir the Drunken computer making weird picks.

[RedskinsVision]

i haven't really examined everyone's teams yet but even w/ the wasted pick of a 3rd QB i was satisfied w/ my team.. but Akh.. your team looks loaded.. obviously ur the favorite w/ ur knowledge on.. basically everything.. but taking a glimpse of the other teams i'm confident my team will be on the top 5.

[IndianBaller27]

lol!!!! No I wanted Marcus Pollard. I put him on the little list thing. lol but it would be funny if it chose someone like Gibran Hamdan... even though I picked him anyways.

Are you trying to say that all our teams suck?!!! Well you can go die!! :D jk

But i think this is the worse FFL ive had in awhile, you should see my team to R2C's league now.

[akhhorus]

im still shocked you passed on Hasselback for McNair.

[RedskinsVision]

im still shocked you passed on Hasselback for McNair.

and Boller as the 2nd QB?? and Hamdan as the 3rd?? :Pickle:

u went hard w/ 5 Skins' on your roster.. McCollough?? LoL.. :kidding:

i only have 1 Skin.. Rod 50/50 Tidwell Gardner. he and Marty Booker were my desperate picks from the Bulger fiasco. now i just pray all these guys and Moe Williams continue to improve.. also hoping for E. Moulds to come back strong this year.. depends on his health and Bledsoe.

[fent]

hmmm....autodraft didn't do me too bad...it'll be work, but it'll be fun...i don't think i have a single stinkin' skin on my team, that's definitely a first

[IndianBaller27]

hmmm....autodraft didn't do me too bad...it'll be work, but it'll be fun...i don't think i have a single stinkin' skin on my team, that's definitely a first
hehe.... You want Gibran Hamdan?

the last four were just for kicks and giggles.. hehe I've never said that before... lol... I think Boller will be aite this year. And Hamdan was just a joke. So was McCullough.... But I might actually use McCants and Cooley. The 5th Skin was Lav Coles.

[fent]

hehe.... You want Gibran Hamdan?

if he's still on the roster come week one we might do some talkin ;)

[IndianBaller27]

He probably will....

[IndianBaller27]

.... not be on the roster

[fent]

He probably will....

i think he'll end up on the practice squad...if i had to bet i'd say that hasslebeck beats him for the third QB

[IndianBaller27]

lol fent, you didn't see what I said right after that....

He probably will....

[fent]

lol fent, you didn't see what I said right after that....

haha...oops...must have caught it right between the posts and i didn't bother to check after i put it

[IndianBaller27]

lol its aite

[bfauble83]

I won the Ricky Williams lottery, so I'm obviously looking for a starting RB if anyone wants to trade.

[RedskinsDave]

I missed the draft and still did okay. Nice work Mr. Computer.
