WSO Fantasy Football

count me in

i am in

I'd be in. would it be free or buy in?

i'm in

in as well for yahoo

Winner gets free tics to a WSO conference? :D

I think we should play for a little cash, nothing too drastic, but 16 weeks of roster management deserves a little payout. Ideally, we should have a league of 10-14 teams, this way we won't be forced to start backups and everyone will have a legit roster.

I'll create the league tonight on Yahoo and I'll post the info on this thread.

As for the buy in, probably through paypal. I'll get that info out tonight as well. Everyone cool with like a 30-35 dollar buy in?

Also, Draft time. I was thinking like Thursday August 29th around 9:30-10pm? Or do we prefer a weekend? Let me know

Anyone interested in getting a league going? Possibly on yahoo. The season will be here before you know it, thank god

can you create a league and post the link/password? what's the max teams per league? we might need a few...

I think 12 is the best number, 14 is high in my opinion.

what are the exit opps for this league/how prefteegus is it to have this league on my resume?

I was going to say I'm in, but I don't play with more than 10. At that point people stop trading and you get the guys who duck out after they lose the first 3-4 games.

I'm in

OK everyone, I had a few free minutes so I created the leage. Here are some of the details:

12 teams Draft is Sunday September 1st at 9:30 pm EST $35 buy in (I will get PayPal info up later tonight)

In my experience, 12 is the best number because then there is a little more depth to it. More paying attention to who's a dark horse player you can snag late, who may have a break out game this week, etc. I feel like 10 or less, there's not as much skill or football knowledge required. You can pretty much just take a few stars that you've heard of and let auto pick do the rest and be competitive. !2 you have to do more of the legwork yourself. I have never played with 14, however.

I can see where you're coming from with that. I've just had the best experiences with 8- and 10-man leagues. Whenever I've been in a 12 or 14 league the bottom 3 or 4 players are pretty much gone after the first 6 weeks. It ruins the second half of the season. To each their own I guess, it probably more depends on the people joining the league than anything else.

I can definitely get that. In an 8 or 10, you have multiple stars or very good players. If one goes down or has an off year, less chance that your entire season is fucked because of it, whereas with a 12 teamer, you won't have many studs, and AP blowing out his knee again will completely knock you out.

Like you said though, probably more depends on the people playing.

I'm in. I'm all for 10 teams or 12 teams.

Bump for more people to join
