    Hi guys. :)

    I run a fantasy football and basketball league with my friends. It's no problem finding people to join fantasy football leagues, but it's tough to fill up a basketball league. Every year we scrape 10 people together but only 5 of us have been really active and we've kicked out the inactives.

    So I'm looking for 5 more more people interested in joining. :)

    General rules:

    Head-to-Head matchups:
    Basically like fantasy football. Play against one person every week and earn a win or a loss based on accrued points. Each stat earns points, not a rotisserie league.

    Weekly lineups:
    We've played daily lineups and weekly lineups and the weekly lineups just seem to be better.
    You don't have to mindlessly and annoyingly change your lineup everyday and it adds strategy to your lineup (example: Player A is better than Player B but Player B had 4 games this week and Player A only has 2)

    Waiver bidding:
    Instead of a standard waiver wire, we use a waiver bidding system. It's not real money, it's a virtual allowance you have to spend on free agents. This gives everyone a chance to get a player instead of worrying about waiver order and adds a fun element trying to outbid everyone without spending your money.


    If you're interesting you can post your email here :) If you don't feel comfortable posting it here just email me at coryssword20@yahoo.com letting me know you want to play and I'll shoot you an invite!

    Any openings left? I am looking to play. Not much experience with fantasy basketball but I love football. I was checking out random leagues and figured I would check here. I will be active I promise.

    Hey guys, thanks for the replies. Sorry I haven't checked my email! This thread wasn't getting any response so I didn't think there was any interest.

    I had two emails and I replied to them. If that was one of you who already posted here let me know and you'll get the 2 spots. :)

    Thanks for the interest! Two other people emailed me a week ago and I missed them. I'm going to give them the first serves. Let you guys know if there's any space left!

    I replied man. Again, sorry about that. :)
