    This season should be the best so far, lots of equal players. Too damned many, really. LOL

    I think I'm in, but it didn't really give me an option to 'join existing league'.

    Yahoo isn't letting me join FC1? I followed the 'Join Now' link from your invite, but when it takes me to the fantasy page, it says I can't join because there wouldn't be room if everyone from last year returns.

    Both FerrariChat I and II full now. If there are still people wanting to play I suggest you start a FerrariChat III with Yahoo and run it yourself with all who want to play. I will recognize the top 2 teams in that league for promotion to FerrariChat II.

    A nationally syndicated sports talk show had a salary cap league a few years ago,
    I won it, but got nothing out of it.
    Salary Cap leagues get no respect.

    I have a normal draft league started, if anyone wants to join.
    My league also has a starting RB/WR/TE position, and 8 bench players.
    If I can't get enough teams by Saturday AM I will fold it, no big deal to me,
    the draft is Sunday 9:15pm CST

    I would love to try it sometime, but too busy with this one.

    hey, I'm winning a MLB league right now and know nothing about it, playing with hardcore fans too. think it helps I don't have favorite teams or players.

    Why do you guys have drafts on Labor Day weekend? Some of us have lives! :D

    Whiskey, that probably deters participation in your league. As it is I'm going to have to auto pick my FC I and II teams. I run my own league and the live draft is on Weds. night.

    best teams always auto draft. ;)

    we always do it right before first regular season game as you have most data and info on injuries.

    Exactly why I don't play. I'd draft only Mets, and that's a losing strategy 9 out of 10 years.

    My FF Cowboys selections, however, were good to me - Old Man Witt, Dan Bailey and a splash of Beasley Sauce!

    I have a life too, and I have moved the draft twice already - you can't please everyone.

    I will move it to Tuesday night Sept 5 9pm CST.
    Regardless of when I have a draft, people just don't seem to be as
    gung-ho about fantasy football, I've noticed it slipping a little the last
    few years, and so have the other folks I know that play.

    I guess I was an anomaly last year in FC2 because I picked my own team and made it to the championship game.

    You know my story, about 6-7 years ago I joined a league, they
    changed their draft at least four times, the last (and final) change they
    made was to a date I could not do.

    I was pissed.

    So I set up my team to auto-draft, I picked a team of all players nobody in their
    right mind would take in the first 5 rounds of a draft, a whole bunch of so-so, middle
    of the pack (or less) players.
    Needless to say, I won the regular season and playoffs that season.
    Every other team got hammered with season-ending injuries - except for me.

    I have no life! :(

    Harvey dumps it's remnants on the Northeast. Outdoor plans cancelled, I'll be drafting live. Oh the humanity!😁

    I missed it !!!!!!

    I have two other leagues that are drafting tomorrow and thought this was one of those Monday drafts.

    It will be tough to repeat last year's performance with an autodraft that drafted two defensive teams.

    My draft report card was B-

    I don't put much stock in the report cards. My FC2 draft grade last year was like a B- or C+, but I spent the entire year in first place (until I made a stupid lineup change prior to the championship game and wound up finishing second overall). I did pick my own team though.
