Are you ready for some Football?

[Sox Fan on Cape]

do work is registered. We just need Kilo.

[CrespoBlows]

We got an hour until the draft?

[schillingouttheks]

Yeah. What are we going to do if Kilo doesn't register in time?

[schillingouttheks]

I propose a quick change to the settings...

 

Is it possible to change the playoff weeks to 14, 15 and 16 instead of 15-17? If you have a star player on a team that's a lock for the playoffs, you won't get much out of him during the championship week. That's what happened with me and LT in the playoffs last year. I got nothing out of him in week 17 (my championship week) because the Chargers didn't play him much at all considering they were a lock for the #1 overall seed.

[CrespoBlows]

Yeah. What are we going to do if Kilo doesn't register in time?

 

We can register for him, have the computer draft, and then turn it over afterward?

[schillingouttheks]

That's a possibility. I feel bad leaving the computer in charge of his team though. I'm drafting for YanksHater today (I'll be fair, I promise lol) so I wouldn't be able to draft for Kilo. Do you think you could? We could just create an account for him and PM his ID and PW to him.

[CrespoBlows]

I can do that. Do you want me to create the Yahoo ID?

[schillingouttheks]

If you don't mind. We can register him, draft him a fair team, and then you can send his account information (ID and PW) via PM. Thanks dude.

[TheKilo]

Hey hey hey.

 

I'm in and i registered.

[schillingouttheks]

Whew! Thought you weren't going to make it.

[YanksHater213]

sorry i couldnt make the draft guys, i just got to school saturday morning and we didnt get our comps until this morning now.

 

cant wait for this to start up

[TheKilo]

Here's my team, thinking it's OK for the first go-round.

 

QB:

Drew Brees (NO)

Jay Cutler (Den)

Matt Schaub (Hou)

 

 

RB:

Cedric Benson (Chi)

Adrian Peterson (Min)

Marion Barber III (Dal)

 

WR:

Torry Holt (STL)

Calvin Johnson (Det)

Santonio Holmes (Pit)

Anthony Gonzalez (Ind)

Derrick Mason (Bal)

 

TE:

Vernon Davis (SF)

Chris Cooley (Was)

 

K:

David Akers (Phi)

 

Defense:

Chicago Bears

 

 

Quick preliminary thoughts:

 

I'm hoping Brees can replicate his monster season from a year ago obviously, but I feel Cutler and Schaub are more than adequate insurance policies. Running back is probably my weakest position, relying on hope that either Benson or Peterson emerges as a big time RB. MB3 is a touchdown vulture so maybe I can pick up some cheap scores there.

 

WR doesn't leap out at you but I feel I had a very good draft in terms of that position, as I fully expect Holt and Holmes to have good years. Plus, if Mike Martz's offense can get Mike Furrey 100 catches I'm sure he can do something for CJ.

 

Defense I'm happy with and TE is a crapshoot, but Cooley and Davis are solid safety valves for their respective teams.

 

All in all, I hope AP can take off this year (except when they play GB, lol). A solid, not spectacular team.

[YanksHater213]

I've got four running backs, addai, edge, ahman green and lamont jordan, probably wanna package one of them with someone else for a QB upgrade.

 

Someone throw me up a trade.

[Cocos Disciples]

Here's my team:

 

QB: Donovan McNabb/Brett Favre

HB: Steven Jackson/Travis Henry/Ladell Betts/Ronnie Brown

WR: Steve Smith/Donald Driver/Santana Moss/Mark Clayton/Ronald Curry

TE: Alge Crumper/LJ Smith

K: Josh Scobee

DEF: Pittsburgh

 

I am generally pleased. Hoping McNabb doesn't go down.

[schillingouttheks]

I'm pumped about my team.

 

QB: Vince Young / Eli Manning (f*** the Madden curse, and Eli has been great in pre-season)

RB: Larry Johnson / Deuce McAllister / Willis McGahee / Tatum Bell / Chester Taylor

WR: Chad Johnson / Javon Walker / Darrell Jackson / Drew Bennett / Antwaan Randle El

TE: Jeremy Shockey

K: Josh Brown

DEF: Denver

 

I should roll with this team. I have 5 starting RBs that can get big points. If you are weak at RB, send me an offer. I really really love my team.

Man you love your fantasy teams a lot huh?

 

Let's see if we can't get something done.

[YanksHater213]

QB: Matt Hasselbeck - Ben Roethlisberger

RB: Addai - Edgerrin James - Ahman Green - LaMont Jordan

WR: Marvin Harrison - Marques Colston - Randy Moss - Kevin Curtis

TE: Tony Gonzalez - Tony Scheffler

K: Shayne Graham

DEF: Carolina - Philadelphia

 

as i said before I want to package one of those RBs for an upgrade at the QB and/or 4th WR slot, so offer me up something, my AIM is the same thing as my name on here so if youd rather get something going there, shoot me an IM, if not PM me of offer me a trade.

[schillingouttheks]

Haha, yeah I do. Normally my fantasy teams always make the playoffs in one of the top two spots in our leagues, but for some reason my baseball team sucked ass this year. My guys would jump out to a great start out of the gate, and then always blow the lead and either win by a small margin or just lose outright. It was frustrating as hell.

[See Red]

I like my team

 

QB - Marc Bulger

WR - Terrell Owens

WR - Anquan Boldin

WR - Reggie Brown

RB - Ladainian Tomlinson

RB - Rudi Johnson

TE - Todd Heap

 

K - Nate Kaeding

 

D - San Diego

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Gentlemen, I have a proposal. It is as follows :

 

Dues $ 15 per person.

 

- If all 10 pay, I'll add $100, this will give us $ 250 in the pool.

 

---- Prizes will be awarded for :

 

............... First........ $ 200 and the "trophy" or T-shirt

............... Second .... 50

 

If we don't get all ten the funds will go to the Plus league fees. If you think about it, only 8 members have to contribute to reach 10. Since, my son and I are/or will be in.

I'll go $30 or $35 since I never got my baseball money in, which I'm sorry about, by the way.

Your $ 15 will be fine. If you remember, you can win the "status", but you can't win the cash. nor can ARod2212 for the Fantasy Baseball.

Alright, and yeah I knew I couldn't win money... wouldn't accept it even if I could. Just kept putting off going to buy stamps and eventually just had completely forgotten about it.

[Cocos Disciples]

I'll put in $15.

I'm in, just need your address in a PM, Rick.

[YanksHater213]

i need the address too... forgive me if it comes in late though, i just moved into school and dont have any envelopes or stamps, but as soon as i get some, i'll be sending it in.

[schillingouttheks]

The $15 sounds good to me too. I just need your address as well, Rick.

Send me an offer if you have any interest in any of my guys.

[TheKilo]

I did than thought better of it, I'd like to see how my team does first.

 

And this is going to sound really lame of me, but I really can't afford to send out the dues for this fantasy football thing. I'm living in an apartment this semester and am pretty much going to be living check to check (from a school job that pays $8/hr) this semester because (a) I like to eat and ( I spent close to $600 on books.

 

If you want me to leave the league, I will, or you could let me continue playing and I would not accept the prize in the unlikely event I win. I didn't think this would require dues, much like the fantasy baseball league I'm in now, otherwise I would not have signed up for it.

 

Again, I apologize, but there's really nothing I can do.
