OT: Anybody up for a GUU fantasy football league?

[Jags Fan Dan]

Just for kicks (read: free), anybody want to do a league on Yahoo? If there is interest I will set it up.

I'll play! I ran a baseball league (or was it football) for GUU members a few years ago and we filled up the entire league. I hope we play head-to-head games each week. I would say set up the league, post the link, id and password on here and I bet we fill a 20-team league really quickly!

Great idea!

if you do it on espn.com... they have a sweet live draft

I was thinking a 10 or 12 team league on Yahoo. I don't think a live draft could ever be coordinated between everybody.

Ok, first 11 guys can get in. It will be an auto pick. Please review the scoring system, as I tweaked it some. Here is the info:

In order to join the league, go to game front page, click the "Sign Up Now" or "Get Another Team" button and follow the links to "Join a Custom League". When prompted, enter the League ID# and password below.

I'm in, thanks for setting this up!

Just to clarify, a team scores four points every time they block a kick, force a fumble, sack the QB, or score a safety? It just seems odd that all of these would be worth more points than a field goal.

There is no Defensive team, there will be 3 individual defensive players. So those points would be awarded if one of your defensive players accomplishes any of those things. Does it seem too high still? If so, I will lower it and am open to any suggestions as to how many points each category should be worth.

Since you only have three defensive players and no team defense, it is fine that these feats are worth more points. If you had a full team defense the scoring would be too high - but since each team will only have 27% of a team defense, the numbers look fine to me.

Yes, I agree... Thanks for clarifying.

Let's play!

We need more GUU members to sign up!!! C'mon guys and girls!

We have 5 signed up. I'd like at least 5 more with room for as many as seven. C'mon guys and gals!

If you can co-ordinate the live auction, and get us at least four more members, I'm all for it!:)
