NFL Fantasy League 2009

[Aberdonian Stu]

Hi lads,

After much issues, accidentally putting together two leagues with the wrong settings, I've finally got the league up and running.

The league names is: Foot.ie NFL league
Password: footie

Yes I am aware of the redundancy of league, it's a pun on UCD Dublin.

Draft is Wednesday 29th July at 8.15pm Irish time.

MODS: Could you make this a sticky please.

[footiefan]

What sites it on? Yahoo,NFL,ESPN, Fox??

Whats the roster set up & scoring?

[WexCar]

nfl.com

[footiefan]

Is that your basic 1 QB 2 RB 3 WR 1 TE 1 K 1D league?

[Aberdonian Stu]

NFL.com is the site.

Here's what you have to draft: 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DST (defence) and 5 subs.

I have a flex position built in which, if I'm right, means you should be able to choose between start 2 RB and 3 WR or 3 RB and 2 WR.

I'll give everyone until Thursday next week to sign up, then I'll start looking for people.

[max power]

i'm in. 6 places left.

[Aberdonian Stu]

If those 6 aren't filled by Thursday at 5pm I'm going to start looking around, other members will also be welcome to do likewise. Need to have 12 if we are to draft on Wednesday week.

[Aberdonian Stu]

Right lads, there are still six spots left. We need to fill them by Tuesday by my understand so feel free to invite your pals to fill it out.

[Real ale Madrid]

any chance a place will be kept open for me until Sunday? I won't be at my home PC until then and work has blocked anything to do with the word "fantasy":o

[Aberdonian Stu]

If you PM me your login details I can sign you up, would that be ok? I'll try to hold a place otherwise but I won't be at the PC full time so can't keep track.

[Real ale Madrid]

No worries - just joined - still 5 places left.

[Aberdonian Stu]

Yeah lads, could ye ask your mates if they're interested. I think it has to be filled by sometime on Tuesday for the draft to go ahead.

I'm away from Friday morning and won't be able to reset it up until the very end of August (which is still before the season starts) if we fail to fill it.

[SkStu]

posted it on the Bohs mb (we have our own league), one has joined already hopefully a couple more will. Otherwise can we just create a few phantom teams?

[Aberdonian Stu]

SkStu, I'm sure that is an option and if we don't fill by this time tomorrow I'll get myself, Schumi, and whoever else is needed to make up the numbers.

[Aberdonian Stu]

Thankfully the league has now filled up and the draft will go ahead at 8.15pm Irish time Wednesday (technically today).

[WexCar]

how long will the draft go on for?

[max power]

well over an hr if i remember from last year.

[Aberdonian Stu]

With a bit of luck it will be shorter than that.

[SkStu]

each person has 90 seconds to pick their player so it depends on how quickly you pick.

I will have mine on auto as i am in meetings all day today.

Good luck all!!

[Angus]

Any slots still left ?

Cant believe I missed this

[WexCar]

I know its a long way off yet but how many teams qualify for play-offs.
I'm assuming 4 (3 division winners + next best team)

[Clifford]

Been away for the summer - am I too late to get in? I assume it's all divided up by now.

[Aberdonian Stu]

Aye the draft has already been held.

[strangeirish]

Don't forget, it starts tonight! Good luck to all.

[SkStu]

got whipped by a combination of the auto-draft factor, bad selection and Drew Brees...
:(

at least it was a loss to a fellow Bohemian.

[Aberdonian Stu]

Could somebody post the results here please, I can't check from my current location.

Dallas DTD won the game for me at the death - pity theres no one checking out the scores and chatting while the games are going on.

This has been some season so far - Favres play at the death was unreal!

Seems close enough this year, no one more than 2.5 games out of top spot so all still in with a chance.

[SkStu]

some top quality individual performances this weekend from certain players cost me dear in a few of my fantasy leagues this week... the others i take part in are all pretty close too and weekly scores are generally way lower than the last 2 years...

im 3-3 in my other two leagues.

[SkStu]

praying for a 70 yard game/10 yard TD from Celek tonight!!
