My draft for one of teams is this saturday. I haven't even started planning yet. I always procrastinate and it usuaully pays off.

Etherfiend · 08-29-2005, 07:43 PM

yeah, studying isn't all its cracked up to be.

i studied for like 2 weeks and 3 people who did no real studying brought no paperwork drafted better teams than me.

so don't feel down, you'll do fine fella. (just get running backs soon, they go quick)

Do you have to suck cock to play?

BartenderLloyd · 08-29-2005, 09:16 PM

Your team looks pretty solid at RB although Dillon tends to not score much recently, WR is ok although remember Brian Griese is throwing the ball to Clayton which is disaterous to anyones #'s. QB is a problem, Plummer is terrible and McNair is fragile, maybe one of the two plays decent enough to get you by.

Heres my team (also 12 teams, pick 9)
QB Brees
RB McAllister
RB Dom. Davis
WR R. Wayne
WR Steve Smith
WR L. Coles
W/R Mike Anderson (my league hasawr/rb position)

Yes, yes it is. Here's my team. 6th pick, 12 team league. Not in draft order, although Dillon was my #1 pick. Also, I picked up Mike Anderson on the waiver wire after I saw he was named the Bronco's starting RB. He should get 1200 yds in that system, so he may be a starter soon.

Starters:

T. Brady (NE - QB)
J. Walker (GB - WR)
Mi. Clayton (TB - WR)
L. Evans (Buf - WR)
C. Dillon (NE - RB)
L. Jordan (Oak - RB)
J. Shockey (NYG - TE)
J. Elam (Den - K)
Miami (Mia - DEF)

Bench:

E. Kennison (KC - WR)
B. Edwards (Cle - WR)
M. Anderson (Den - RB)
N. Kaeding (SD - K)
New England (NE - DEF)

I started it...I'm the only one in it so far...I know people will be busy on the weekend and unable to attend the live draft (which makes it pretty much an autopick draft then).

I tried to post my own thread advertising the league but found I wasn't an active member for long enough. This is my first opportunity to put this up since finding out about my restriction.

I also have a free O&A Yahoo league: Opie and Anthony XM 202 (ID# 548502). http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/548502

Please people...join up...it is FREE FREE FREE...and it is the tiniest bit of spreading the virus.

Schwapp · 09-01-2005, 05:58 AM

Oh yeah...I don't think there is a password on the ESPN league...but if there is...it would be norton. The Yahoo league has no password.

Stormrider666 · 09-02-2005, 02:37 PM

Its amazing how big Fantasy Football has become in the past couple of years. My friends started doing it 97 and it didn't have the following it does now. I mean there were the magazines you could buy, to help you. But now every sports channel and football pre game show has something to do with fantasy football. You also have people in offices who have no idea about football, in leauges. My friends and I have a leauge on Yahoo, our fourth in row, Slacker Madness.

Becasue in a league with 2 starting WR, yours are awful! I like Clayton and Fitzgerald, but as a #3 WR not #1 and #2. Sorry buddy, you asked why you're 0-2?

And Feely is not the K for Pittsburg

Advice: I would say trade a RB for a WR, but you can't afford to do that. You're gonna have to suck it up and deal with you mediocre team.

City View · 09-21-2005, 10:59 AM

Thanks. I know my recievers suck. That's what I get for drinking during the draft.
