Fantasy Football??

Who wants to play? I’ll set up a league and we can draft next weekend if there’s enough interest (need 8+)
Are the 4 of you still in? @JaJuanY @maggiemadeit @sejica @southerngirlinwi

I've always wanted to do this. I tried several years ago and had no clue what I was doing... Anyone care to explain it to a newb?

mayoduck · August 2018

Nice idea! I'm already in a league and anxious to do more than one but if you need more players to kick this off, I'm in!

The gist is you are a “team owner/manager” and you have to build a winning team. Each team is composed of the same positions - quarterback, some wide receivers, some running backs, kicker, defense, tight end and a bench where you can store some extras.
You build your team by drafting real players from real teams and your scoring is based on how they perform. For example if you have a quarterback like Tom Brady who throws a million touchdowns you get a lot of points, but if the defense you choose is playing against the Patriots and allows a lot of points to be scored, you might get 0 or even negative points for that position.
Each week (I think 14 weeks) you play a different team and each week you are able to make adjustments to your lineup based on who is on your bench, undrafted, or trades you make. Last two weeks of the regular are the championship games.
I use yahoo fantasy football and find it to be both user friendly and great for providing insight and scoring projections for those who don’t otherwise know who’s who in the zoo (like me

I read projections and player updates but haven’t watched a game since DD was born)
I hope you will play!!

maggiemadeit · August 2018

@mamakate1616 Yes! It will be my 3rd league but I am up for the challenge

bdesterhouse · August 2018

Count me in, sounds like fun.

sejica · August 2018

@mamakate1616 I'm still game!

mamakate1616 · August 2018

We need at least 3 more

Shelbyville30 · August 2018

Clueless but count me in

mamakate1616 · August 2018

mamakate1616 · August 2018

Last call — any takers before we have to scrap it?

bdesterhouse · August 2018

So we need two more??

mamakate1616 · August 2018

Yes!

Lbloom · August 2018

Count me in!

mamakate1616 · August 2018

If you guys want to play with just the 9 of us we can do that and someone will have a bye week each week.

eta: evidently I can’t count because there are only 7 of us lol!

bdesterhouse · September 2018

I’m fine w that.

mamakate1616 · September 2018

Alright ladies - here’s the link to join! I set the draft for tomorrow at 8:30pm eastern but we can change that if needed.

maggiemadeit · September 2018

Yes, I’m in! Thanks for setting it up @mamakate1616

bdesterhouse · September 2018

Yes thank you!

mayoduck · September 2018

In! Thanks for taking the lead on this, @mamakate1616

sejica · September 2018

Done! But as usual, I'm a doofus and accidentally made 6 teams, but I fixed it, just apologizing if it caused anyone any grief. It should be fine now.

mamakate1616 · September 2018

Haha! I never saw anything out of the ordinary. My pleasure, besides yahoo made it super easy.

mamakate1616 · September 2018

@bdesterhouse @Shelbyville30 @Lbloom
are you guys able to get signed up?

bdesterhouse · September 2018

I will sign up after church so I can do it from my computer. So about 11:30 centeral time zone

kristimh80 · September 2018

Joined! Thanks for doing this...I've been wanting to join a team.

Shelbyville30 · September 2018

Hey! @mamakate1616 Sorry I’m behind, I’m on vacation but I think I can probably work it out tonight. Is it too late?

mamakate1616 · September 2018

Nope it’s not too late! I do every thing from my cell so it should be pretty easy. I think I’ll postpone the draft at least until tomorrow night to give every one a chance to get signed up.

chrissdee · September 2018

Hi! I'm dropping in from April 2019 bmb because I just saw @mamakate1616 post needing more players. Do you still need any more people?

edited because autocorrect sucks

mayoduck · September 2018

8:30 pm EST tomorrow (Monday) then?

bdesterhouse · September 2018

I figured it out!

bdesterhouse · September 2018

sounds good to me!

Shelbyville30 · September 2018

all signed up!

mamakate1616 · September 2018

@chrissdee yes!!! We actually can’t play until we have an even number. (I thought we could with bye weeks but it won’t even let us draft).

Is everyone good with drafting tonight at 8:30pm eastern?

bdesterhouse · September 2018

I’m good

maggiemadeit · September 2018

Works for me

kristimh80 · September 2018

Good with me

Shelbyville30 · September 2018

Sounds good!

mamakate1616 · September 2018

@chrissdee - I think you have two teams on there. Is “Chriss’s choice Team” the one you want to keep? I can remove the one you don’t want for you

JaJuanY · September 2018

Can I still join???? Sorry I'm so late in the game, but will be around at 8:30 pm for the draft tonight.

mamakate1616 · September 2018

Sounds good! We’re up to 9 now so we still need one more to make it an even number

JaJuanY · September 2018

Maybe one of us can enter two teams? I'm okay with that, if it means we get to play.
