CU Fantasy Football League 2009

Well, football season is getting closer which means it’s time for some fantasy football. I know last year MeteoriteGuy was in charge of the league. I don’t think he is as active with the message board as he was last year. I would be more than happy to take the reins this year. I enjoyed the head to head format as last year and I think we should keep it the same way. However, we should only keep it to 14 teams this year. Players seemed to run thin by the end of the draft with a 16 or 18 team league.

I think that we should also keep it interesting and have everyone wager two (2) $25 PSA cards. This keeps everyone motivated to participate all the way through the season. If you are seriously interested please post a reply and send me a pm. I will start the ball rolling and get the league setup and figure out the payouts.

    J, you are playing in my league so I'll play in yours too. Just pm me the info. I would also rather do cash than 2 $25 cards if that is ok.

    I will, however, accept all forms of payment after I win the league.
  • PowderedH2OPowderedH2O Posts: 2,443 ✭✭
    I'll give it a go. I could use a few extra $25 cards for my collection.

    I'll play again. Good idea to not go with the 16 team league again. Are you going to use default yahoo settings?

    If there is room, I would be interested. LMK.

    I'll jump on one spot, my league last year went to heck as a majority were friends and they "fixed" the league after it started.

    Well, every single person can't make the draft time that I picked. Unless I change the time I will be drafting by myself. image Please make a list of what days and times that are good for you and I will do my best to work around everyone’s schedule.
  • corvette1340corvette1340 Posts: 3,384 ✭✭✭
    Yo, I can make it to any draft time, any draft day. My schedule doesn't rule me, I rule my schedule!
  • Please put me in as first alternate should someone drop out? Thanks!

    I'll be a second alternate in case someone can't do it - the return of the Rockcats is in serious doubt right now !
  • jswietonjswieton Posts: 2,870 ✭✭✭
    I am still waiting for a few people to respond with what time is best for them. Also, if you were in the top 14 and have not signed up yet with the Yahoo league can you please do so.

    Count me in if there's a spot available or if one becomes available. I doubt I'll be able to do as well as I've been doing in one of the CU Fantasy Baseball Leagues, but what the heck...
  • PowderedH2OPowderedH2O Posts: 2,443 ✭✭
    I can make it anytime except Mon-Thurs evenings. Otherwise I am free. Sundays are the best.

    Whenever you decide to have the draft is ok with me. If I can't be available, it'll autopick.

    Sounds good, I will update the date and time in the next few hours.

    Mark, if you want to do a league I'm in for sure. You did a great job last year, I really enjoyed it. There's enough people here who missed out and would join your league.

    LMK, I'd be glad to join!

    The new Fantasy football draft time is Monday August 24th at 7:30 pm Central. I tried to accommodate as many people as I could with this time. If you have not signed into the Yahoo league yet please do so.
  • jswietonjswieton Posts: 2,870 ✭✭✭
    I tried several different ways on working the pay outs but the best way seems to just have a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. The first place team will win 8 cards. The second place team will win 6 cards, and the third place team will win 4 cards.

    We could also set it up so that the 3rd place team only gets 2 cards and the 4th place team breaks even. Please let me know what you guys think of the payouts.

    I think you have your math wrong. If you were to pay out to the top 3 teams, we would have 22 cards as prizes right? You're only accounting for 18 above.

    If you want to expand to the top 4 (which would be nice since we have 14 teams playing) there would be 20 cards available. I gotta get to a mtg now but I'll post a couple suggestions later.

    J,
    Since I paid cash how is that going to effect the pool. Ie.- is it 2 cards that vcp for $50 or is is two cards that have SMR's of $25 each?
  • jswietonjswieton Posts: 2,870 ✭✭✭
    Oh, I'm an idiot. I figured the standings with using 12 teams only. A mind is a terrible thing to waste image

    Here is a list of the standing and who will pay off whom at the end of the season in regards to their position. I think we are still waiting for two people to sign up. If they have not signed in by the end of the day Thursday I am going to have to invite an alternate to play.

    1st- (14,13,12,11) - 8 cards
    2nd-(10, 9, 8,)- 6 cards
    3rd-(7,6)- 4 cards
    4th- (5)- 2 cards

    lol, you got it. I'll put a card inside one of my socks and then on the inside of another sock, both "game" worn by me of course.
