No problem guys, glad to do it.
Has anyone in the league not drafted or played ff before?
There have been almost no questions about it, guess everyone is familiar with it.

I don't think any sites come anywhere close to the 2 you mentioned

Roadtrip635 · 08-30-11, 09:20 PM

I was checking out the settings for the league on Yahoo, starting 3WR and 3RB, is that correct? Anyway to change that third RB spot to a flex?

cant call it · 08-31-11, 09:40 AM

I will change it to whatever the majority wants it changed to.
Let me know if you like it the way it is.
or if you want 2wr 2rb 1 flex just post up what you like here and maybe we can get some feedback before the draft.

cant call it · 08-31-11, 04:14 PM

I actually thought it would work well the way I set it up since I added extra spots on the bench to maximize your ability to change starting roster easily with waivering every week.

Yall mother lovers ready for this???

Saturday 12:00PM CST

Also forgot to mention hotstreak has posted up for side pool.

That should mean we are all in. This is gonna be very fun.

Dax · 08-31-11, 05:24 PM

Let do this!!!

Sidetracked · 08-31-11, 05:27 PM

any spots left?

cant call it · 09-02-11, 08:06 AM

Guys I have some good news. Robmpink and his wife just had another child.

cant call it · 09-02-11, 08:11 AM

I have not heard any more from rob but he said his wife will be coming home from the hospital that day and he will not be able to make the draft. I am afraid we might have to open his spot up for grabs in this league.

IF you are interested in joining please post "i want to join" in here. Do not send points over yet! I will most likely have you send the points to rob to keep from getting too much sbr rake.

Remember this is a 12 team league ppr style yahoo fantasy league. Draft order has not been determined yet, it will be randomly selected by the yahoo system about an hour before the draft.

I hope to hear from rob whether he wants to allow autopick on the draft , or if he wants to be replaced. Since it took so long for us all to agree on a date/time, I feel these are the only options. I am sure the rob will understand, he has his hands full right now.

Dax · 09-02-11, 10:02 AM

Dude that sucks, how about moving the draft day so that we can all be there? either way I'm good with what ever...

cant call it · 09-02-11, 10:07 AM

He said he is going to try to make it anyway, he still wants in. If we can all come to some kind of agreement on a better time or date please post up as we only have 24 hours to figure something else out, kind of short notice I know, so we may just have to roll the way it is. If we decide to keep draft time/date same, rob will be on autopick unless he can get home earlier. GL guys, I see yahoo messaged everyone to remind about the draft today, and I will PM each one of you tomorrow.

Dax · 09-02-11, 05:31 PM

I'm Ok with the date change... we can make it sunday? or during the week?

Waterstpub87 · 09-02-11, 07:32 PM

Completely free sunday and monday. Let me know if we are moving it

Roadtrip635 · 09-02-11, 10:31 PM

I have another draft on Sunday at 4:00 eastern, I'm fine on moving it as long as it doesn't conflict with that one. Let us know.

JAKEPEAVY21 · 09-03-11, 09:15 AM

I cancelled plans to be home this morning for the draft..no last minute draft time changes I'm hoping

cant call it · 09-03-11, 09:46 AM

we are on at 12:00 today.

cant call it · 09-03-11, 10:54 AM

guys make sure you get in there early

Iced · 09-03-11, 12:20 PM

I've been trying to get into the draft for the past 45 minutes but Yahoo isn't letting me.

I'm in college right now, so the first connection I tried was my laptop with the standard WiFi in my dorm. That didn't work. Then I tried hooking up my laptop directly with the ethernet cable. That didn't work. Then I ran to the library like a fukin goofball to get on one of their computers. That didn't work. Then I tried my laptop with the library's WiFi and that didn't work either.

Sorry boys.

This is how far I got every time and then it stopped:

That sucks, that happened to me in Black's league, I just kept closing it and trying again and it finally worked. I missed the first 3 rds of a draft last year because of that, I got to draft 30 minutes early and finally got in right before my 4th rd pick.

You got a good team, but the Spankers will be ready. Prepare to be spunked!

cant call it · 09-05-11, 04:34 PM

Remember get your line ups ready. you can change a line up right up until a game starts, but once the game kicks off, the player is locked , whether he is on your starting roster or whether he is on the bench. Once the player is locked, you cannot move him until after MNF game (tuesday). Your players on the bench will not earn points towards your weeks totals. So instead of waiting until the last minute make sure your lineup is good to go by thursday, because I think we will have some nfl thursday games this year, don't let it catch you off guard.
I am not too familiar with yahoo's site as far as tracking player injuries and such, but I guess I will eventually figure it out. I am however familiar with espn fantasy site they have a tracker that you can check called the 'inactives report' sunday mornings, and they will live update about players status if they are questionable or inactive, or starting, etc. you can continue to move your roster around sundays if chance a player is ruled 'inactive' you can change them as long as the game has not started and as long as the player you want to move in their position hasn't started playing.
Overall I think we had a good draft, there are alot of strong teams. It is pretty even as far as I am concerened, you never know with fantasy players, some fail to produce, some get injured, alot of it is like rolling dice, you just need to play the players you think will produce. Yahoo and espn offer fantasy projections that you can see when you are viewing your team or player, although I do not know if those projections are standard projections or if they are PPR projections (we ARE a PPR league.)
I basically have my starting lineup that I want all year long but will plug in someone during their bye week, barring injury to anyone. I wish all of you good luck and please ask questions if you have them.

Iced I see the software did not work for you, whatever the problem I apologize. Do you feel like you like your team? After looking at it I think you have a pretty solid team, we all do really. I see you have peyton starting , they are talking like he will not play. You may want to keep track of that in case you need to put in a replacement. Football starts this weekend.

and good luck to all.
