If anyone is interested in playing fantasy football this season, you can join up here (http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/register/tos?league_id=422671&password=heaveho).
The particulars are:
Yahoo! FF
League ID#: 422671
League Name: Weirdos Exposed
Password: heaveho
Draft Type: Live Standard Draft
Draft Time: Sun Aug 26 1:45pm PDT
I have the max # of teams set at 10 right now, but that could certainly be adjusted upwards depending on interest.
-
And now we have 4. Who will be next?
-
If everybody's cool with doing an earlier draft on the 26th, that'd be great, or Saturday (day before). If not, no big sweat.
-
Sent a message to each member of last year's FOT ESPN league.
Sunday is tough for me as a draft day, but Saturday does work. Later in the day it goes on Sunday, the better off I am (helping someone move). Whatever the consensus, so be it!
-
I work Saturdays, but can make it back for a 6:45(ish) draft. Only problem might be that I am in California, so that would put folks on the East Coast beginning a draft at almost 10pm Saturday night. Doesn't make a real difference to me, so let me know what you think.
-
If the Draft time set already works for most, maybe let's just keep it. I'll have to do an auto-draft, but that's not the biggest bummer in the world. It's all about the deep picks 'nyways.
-
If on Sunday my only request would be make it later, anytime after 7 EST would be safe for me. If that doesn't work for most then no worries, I can autodraft.
For those who haven't signed up ... we still have 2 slots left! Pithy team name not required but preferred.
-
I'm in, looks like I made it an odd 9.
-
So I have changed the draft to 7:00pm EST, and hope that works better for everyone. We're up to 10 teams now, and I'm happy with that.
I wouldn't mind experimenting with 2 divisions, and the top 2 teams from each advancing to the playoffs (but with seeding determined by overall record). I have no real attachment to it, other than to see if it's enjoyable. If people are opposed let me know.
-
Looking forward to another season of obsessing!
Can we all make a pact to submit a roster every week- even if we're 0-8? If we're out of the running we still owe it to the others to keep things competitive.

Is it too late to join up?
-
I signed up, which makes it an odd number, if that messes things up, I'll cancel my team or whatever, but I guess if someone else joins up, I'm excited to try my first fantasy football league.
-
No, that's super fine - we just need one more team! We can do it before Sunday's draft.
-
I'm in. Ashes of Xmas Trees.
-
I'm in. Ashes of Xmas Trees.
That's a very nice name.
-
It looks like the draft is set for 7:00 Pacific time, not Eastern time. That 10:00 Eastern. Can we fix the time zone?
-
Ugh. Yahoo glitch. It's only giving me the option of 3:45 PST/6:45 EST, which is what I changed it to.
-
I'm up for another year. How about everyone else?
-
Sure. Why not?
-
Yes.
-
Yes please.
-
Is the league full yet?
-
I'll do it.
-
Has a league been set up? If not, I can do it...
-
If someone has setup a league can they post the registration info here?

Go for it. I don't think anyone has yet. Thanks!

Thanks...I've done some soul searching, and come to the conclusion that the three leagues I'm already in is enough for me. Maybe next year!

I would prefer no kickers.
Currently 9 teams in, 3 spots open.

If it does not fill up by tomorrow afternoon I will open it up to the general population.

Toyota Hall of Fame Legends of Fantasy Football Best Draft!
-
My draft was a disaster.
-
I didn't compensate for the hour difference between Eastern and Central time zones. When I logged on the draft was over.
-
I got to the draft a couple minutes late and my first two picks were autoselected. Those are the fun ones to pick! I was bummed.
And then I wasn't prepared at all for the rest of it - I was able to scramble enough to at least not pick any injured guys.
