Fantasy football

  • Fine by me. I'll do my best to make it, but if I can't I'll make sure my auto-pick is set.

    any objections from the group to make the draft on Monday evening, September 4th?

    Is it Monday evening or Sept. 4? Labor Day Monday is Sept. 6.

    Either way, I wouldn't be able to do it; Sept. 4, I'll be at my sister-in-law's wedding in Greeley, CO, and Sept. 6 (after the Rockies game), I'll be on a train heading back home to New York.

  • Works for me also.

  • Thanks Ray, I looked at the wrong month. The draft would be Monday, September 6th in the evening.

    Okay. Count me among those who wouldn't be able to make it. Guess I'll have to go with the luck of the auto-draft!

    I just registered a few minutes ago!

  • Ah, Sept 6th should be doable for me.

    The league is created, I tried to send each of you a private message with the details. Post if you didn't get the message, I'll re-send.

    Dan, I didn't get a PM on this. Can you send one my way?

  • Just re-sent the IM, should be good now.

    Stupid question. I've never played fantasy football before (yet I've been pulled into two leagues -- go figure). How do I set my team up for auto-draft?

    Also, FYI, when I checked the site, it says the draft is set up for Sept. 5, not Sept. 6. Just lettin' ya know . . .

  • Thanks Ray, I haven't changed the date yet.

    When I clicked my team, a "popup" showed asking if I want to add the draft to my calendar. It also gave me the ability to go to my pre-draft rankings. On the next page, there's an 'Edit My Rankings' button.

    Looks like you can get there from the 'Draft Central' tab, also.

  • Whoops, don't think I answered the question. The draft should go down the list of your pre-draft rankings and grab those players. I'll look more at lunch, try and get a definitive answer for you.

  • It looks like it will auto draft according to your draft list if you don't login during the live draft. You can do the 'mock draft' also to see how it all works.

  • Seems like there should be more than 4 playoff spots for a 16 team league..

    How about 6 playoff spots? Start the playoffs a week early. Top 2 teams get bye in the first round. Any thoughts?

  • Ok my 'Brit' team is in.

    Draft currently looks like late evening for me as long as the time doesn't change too much when Dan moves the date.

    The league looks like it is only set up for 12 at the moment, is this going to change shortly as I thought we had 16 players?

  • How's my request for the league ID coming?
