With the real number of teams 32, and this fantasy league having 16, there'll be plenty time with the lightning fast mouse skills of most to pretty much get who you want. Last year I was able to improve all year long in my auto-pick league, and wound up 3rd place after a 0-2 start. I had Tom Brady, Donavan McNabb, and Randy Moss to start as "stars" but I quickly grabbed up Dominick Davis and John Kitna to blast my offensive numbers up... Also, with the small number of teams already signed up, I may reduce it back to 10 teams only... I'm ready to set my team up! Besides, it's free, so the autopick ain't that bad... it's not like you're paying to have a random rag-tag group... btw- I'll just put the ID# on here... 331784 and the password is: aflisfun
Damn, lets make it a live draft...much better that way, much more skill involved. If not, thats ok, I'll still join. But I'd much rather have it be live draft.
If I can have at least 10 teams sign up quickly we'll go live... BUt the other way will have to happen if I open it up to the "public." What would be the best day and time? I could not do it this weekend at all... perhaps Monday night the 16th, or Thursday the 19th?? btw- If anyone cannot make the draft it will be autopicked based on your pre-rankings.. so pre-rank either way, as a rule of thumb.
And then there were 9 spots left unspoken for... as soon as we have 10 filled, we'll set it for a live draft...
I believe there is a spot in this league open... http://bbs2.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=81703 I'm in it too...
