Any Fantasy footballers here?
I am a big fantasy guy! If there are any what kind of leagues do you guys use?
Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?
I usually play in 5 to 7 fantasy leagues (NFL only) every year. Cutting it down to "only" 5 this year, in addition to a survivor league I run ($20 entry + tiered rebuys--send me an email if you may be interested; last year, $2550 jackpot was split by 3 people, which is pretty good for having 40-something people in it, I think!).
I started a 15-keeper Dynasty league last year, so we're going in to year two. Each successive year is gonna be a 5-round draft, and we have an IR slot. Too bad most of the people didn't want to draft IDPs, but with 14 teams, it'd take forever!
Also in a few work-leagues and a league with some friends I play poker with that's always fun. You want to keep the league honest? Charge fees for waiver moves! Love football season!

You should check out some of the leagues out there for minimal buy-in (like $25 NFL league where winner gets autographed football--can't post the link as I haven't been 7 day member yet). There's all kinds of stuff out there, just stay with the names you know (espn, yahoo, nfl, cbssports, etc.). Keeps the game interesting when you've got money on the line, big or small.

Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?
That's awesome! I get stuff every day from footballguys.com. RBs could be great if AP/AD doesn't start on PUP. And do you mean T. Richardson? going through my head and can't think of any R. Richardson's....I have big hopes for Greg Little, too, this year. I'm a huge Browns fan, but I'm also a realist and pessimist and wouldn't be surprised to see a sophomore slump, which would suck given his mediocre performance last year.

Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?
Yeah, I mistyped on Richardson and he is a beast and i have a fantasy man crush on him and i think he will help rebuild the Browns into a contender. I really think Little has a chance to improve his numbers with Weedon at QB because in college Weedon always leaned on Blackmon and Little is the exact physical possession WR that a rookie QB leans on.
As for AP i really don't think he will start the year on PUP, but if he does i don't mind starting Murray for a few games.

Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?
I do college and NFL. I'm much better at college, though. League Champ 3 years running. I usually just join random leagues.

Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?
I started in '94 when you wrote everything on paper and checked papers for a couple days to figure out how you did (then kept an eye on the Commish because you can't trust someone doing it by hand).
I stopped in college and have been kind of spotty for a few years after.
I convinced my wife's family to start a league a few years back and the title hasn't left our house yet, $20 league, we put the league on pause last year though.
I got 1 year in with a gaming clan, I won a few hundred with them, but missed signups last year when I wasn't too active on the forums. Looking for redemption this year.
I don't like to be in more than 2-3 a year and have passed the point of doing them for no money because the investment keeps all interested.

Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?
I only took home 1,200 this year from fantasy, but in years past i have won 2,500 in high stakes leagues but they were 3 local leagues together and local leagues are a cake walk.
Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?

Re: Any Fantasy footballers here?
Okay. I looked the site up. It looks good to me. As I am not experienced with it and you are would you mind being the commish? And what style of league do you prefer? I tend to play a Lg with QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR/RB, TE, K, D. And PPR. Also with anywhere from 10-20 teams.
