    Past Champions...

    2012: Big Hammer (ronr)
    2011: SnakeBite Key Geckos (Tillman)
    2010: Flat Cranks (Fast_ian)
    2009: Ferrari Cowboys (?)
    2008: Berners (Hoodude)

    thanks,
    rob

    Excited for Football to be back! When is the draft? I saw the settings say draft type is Auto-Draft currently.

    I'd like to join. I'm subscribed, have fantasy football experience (I've won in a league though I'm not rabid) and will participate weekly. I'll send you a PM with email address.

    If one of the others don't return, I'll play. I meet all of the criteria and usually put up a good fight and then crap out in the playoffs.

    invite being sent, I will have to see how many other spots available, I think we're full now though. if enough people someone is welcome to start another league, this is just the official one. we can have a 2nd division and the top 2 teams from 2nd division get moved up every year. :)

    My schedule is pretty flexible, so that works for me. For my other league we're doing it on a week night (Wednesday) since most of the guys are out and about on Sundays.

    Would love to. Are you using Yahoo?

    Any other sponsors or anyone else interested that can't get into the official league?

    you would have to ask in sponsor forum, my guess it would be hard to find 12 teams. maybe post in sponsors forum and then trying to fill 12 you can shout out here for others that want to play. we still need 1 team and likely bobzdar will fill that spot. thanks.

    I'd join a second league if someone would be kind enough to take on the commish role. Experienced FF player here. Though as Rob might recall I won the FChat March Madness bracket with nil experience. :)

    good for me.

    just don't do what another private league did to me - changed the draft date/time FOUR TIMES. I finally told them to F--- themselves and I dropped from that league.

    Commish Rob,

    1) Do we know the draft order?

    2) Have you thought about adding fractional points? (9 yds rushing is the same as a no show without them)

    draft order will be set automatically right before the draft. we've always done it without fractional, everyone is under the same rules, sometimes it helps, sometimes it hurts.

    Very true.

    But didn't we have a bunch of ties last year? [& the year before?] Going "fractional" would pretty much eliminate that (?) Whether that's good or bad is, I guess, another debate. ;)

    As for helping -v- hurting, a quick Google opened a whole other can o' worms!..... Seems passions run high on the topic!

    Cheers,
    Ian

    For immediate release - Official team name change!

    While "Flat Cranks" seemed somewhat apropos a few years back, we got bored with that and will henceforward be known as the "English Executioners"..... ;)

    Hopefully, our (remarkably successful!) stats will carry forward, but no matter, we'll still kick ass.....

    ENDS
