I was clicking around on Yahoo and thought it was funny that they already had opened fantasy football registration... until I saw that damn near every decent available online draft time was already gone. The only times that were available near the start of the season were either early morning, or late afternoon, and all weekends were gone completely.

I assume that since there was plenty of interest in fantasy baseball here, there would have to be at least as much interest in football, so I hastily threw a league together, just to secure a semi-decent draft time (which I'm not all that thrilled with either, but it was the best available IMO). If somebody else wants to put something together at another time or site or skip it altogether, that's fine with me - I'll just delete this one. Otherwise, here's the league that currently serving as a place holder:

I'm in, Govs

I wouldn't miss the chance to dominate you in football as well as baseball govs.

Mike Redmond only plays baseball... you can't pick him up in football to try and save you.

What are you talking about I don't have Redmond on my team?

My apologies - Redmond was Verb's brilliant move. Since I'm such an attention draw to both of you, I guess I'm starting to get you confused.

In your case I probably should have said Jason Giambi instead.

im in hope this league is active.....good luck guys

Thought I'd bump this thread up.

Still 4 spots left - League info is above.

Oh and I'm in the league everybody.

I'm thinking those 4 spots will be filled up quickly now that that's said

Beacause everybody assumes they'll have at least one easy win?

Spot on. That AND that I'm a trendsetter. I'm like a librarian ...


... I know where it's at.

Looks like I got the last spot. So I can show you all how it's done.

Any chance of moving the draft? Like to say, August 26th or something? Weeknights just don't work well for me that week. (Freshman orientation stuff that I have to help organize)

Screw the frosh... let them learn at the School of Hard Knocks like I did!


Personally, I can make the 26th work if everybody else is willing. Thoughts everybody?

The 26th works for me

Everyone going to be there tonight?

As long as 7 PM poker is done by 930.

It sure starts at prime time ... debatable if it's worth taking a night off opposed to preranking ...

Just because I think it's hilarious that Fantasy Football is already available, I renewed the Minnhock league from last year. I set the draft for Tuesday, August 26 @ 8:00, so hurry and sign up - time's a wastin'.
