Some advice. Save this draft choice until the later rounds.

I am so damned envious of you folks. I think the DY Football Fantasy League is a great idea, and should be lots of fun for those participating. I really can't get in, because I am not much of a football fan. Oddly, I had JUST been thinking of proposing that we do a fantasy league for baseball, but A) it would have to begin next season, and B) I'm not sure there would be enough interest. Have fun!! |

Should we draft at 8 or wait for 10?
What do you guys think? |

I could stand to wait a few weeks, but I really don't care when we draft. 10 teams would make it more fun, the teams get too built up with less.
Ravine, even if you hate the Lions, playing Fantasy makes Sundays fun all over again. I've learned so much more about football in the years I have been playing. If you have any interest in trying it out, I think this would be a good league to do it. It's free, the people will me more polite and helpful than in most leagues, and it usually only takes 10-15 minutes a week to set your line-up. |

i agree about having at least 10 teams...I never played in a league with less then 10. 8 might be cool in its own way. It can be like the original 8. We can be the pioneers of something great.
To make it more fun i'm going to look for some sort of trophy for the winner. Something that wreaks of Detroit.
Tigers looked great tonight!!! |

I'd like 10, contrary to what I posted on the league's message board. The only problem might be getting 10 people to join. |

What are we doing if we get stuck with 7? Is someone going to create a second "dummy" team? |

We could do bye-weeks, if Yahoo allows it, or change to points-only scoring. Or find one more! |

Just out of curiosity, would anyone join a fantasy hockey league if I created it? On Yahoo, of course. |

Go ahead and sign up. I'll hold off until late September for a draft to max out the possible number of players. |

Hey, SCS...help me out here, how was the draft conducted? I didn't get word that the draft was taking place. I didn't pick anyone, but I seem to have a full team assigned to me.

It was an auto draft. The draft was conducted via a computer randomly choosing players for teams. So your draft was pretty much luck. |

OKIC...One more question, are we stuck with the players on our rosters, or can we wheel and deal for different players? My team looks pretty good, but having Mark Bulger as my QB makes me nervous. |

Well, I got Peyton Manning, and you are definitely not getting him. 
You can make free agent deals by dropping players and adding others. I'm trying to fix my defense right now. You can trade, but that's up to the people you want trade with. |

Yeah, right...the league commissioner gets Peyton Manning. What's up with that? I suppose you got Terrell Owens, Chad Johnson and LaDanian Tomlinson too?
I guess I'll stick with Bulger after all, at least for now...I checked the available QBs and none of them give me much hope. |

I love my team, even if I have both Detroit running backs. I guess either way one of them has to get some yards, right? I'm hoping for another great season from Reggie Bush, though.
Anyone want to take Santonio Holmes off my hands? |

Checking the draft stats, someone want to tell me how Peyton Manning was around when I picked in the first round? I had the last first round pick and got him. That doesn't make any sense... (Thank you computer ) |
