Fantasy Football

BridgeTroll · August 05, 2009, 01:47:57 PM

The season is almost upon us... Thank god! Any of our metrojax folks play fantasy football? I have played Yahoo and ESPNs games before and have enjoyed it. I dont really have time to participate in full blown drafts or administer a league... I usually let the computer pick from my list of prefered players etc.

Any interest?

I played for the first time last season. I am not hardcore, but it makes games you wouldn't normally care about interesting. If someone starts something up, I would be interested.

I would opt for the Yahoo league default and have the auto pick draft... it is very easy and NOT hardcore.

This was brought up last year, but didn't go anywhere.

Does anyone have any interest in a Metrojacksonville fantasy football league. I will start up a league and send out the invites if there are enough interested people.

I'm hardcore. I've been playing for money for over a decade now.

I'll play if theres room.. I'm in a $200 league now, but this one would be fun too!

What's at stake? Bragging rights?

Let me know!

My best friend (an occasional MetroJacksonville lurker, also here in Va) and I have started up a league and are looking for more players. It's a Yahoo league with the autopick draft, so all you'd need to join is a Yahoo account. We don't play for money. If everyone would just like to join that you're more than welcome to do so. Please send me an e-mail or a message at my Facebook page if you're interested. I'd be glad to be in contact with everyone from MJ as Facebook friends anyway. Hopefully this works for taking you to my Facebook profile: http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/profile.php?id=1220606673. If not, my not very secret identity is David Damiani and my Jacksonville affiliations are obvious from the profile picture.

I haven't played in a few years but would like to join if possible.

My good friend runs ff for ESPN up in CT and could give us a full access league for free if that's the route everyone wants to go...

How many more people do you need Wacca?

Wacca Pilatka · August 17, 2010, 04:55:29 PM

We have 8, but 3 or 4 of them are not particularly involved players (e.g., two of my buddy's daughters and one friend who often forgets to update rosters), so it'd be nice to have a few more so we can have more competition and also be able to have a weekly head-to-head system rather than a year-long highest score system.

Well I am in two leagues and want to do three. So if there aren't enough people from Metrojacksonville to create a league, I will join to help fill out your league.

That'd be great. Thanks.

I'd be interested

I'm down for a metjax league. I'm in a few on espn this season, did a yahoo league a few years ago.

Lucasjj · August 17, 2010, 08:42:24 PM

Do we want to do an actual scheduled draft or just let the computer pick them out so we don't have to spend the 4 hours drafting?
