All right bitches - I'm in!

Told the wife I wouldn't do the fantasy thing this year, but I guess I'm just weak willed.

Never done a live draft, should be interesting.

Tell the wife it's free and she probably won't even mind.

SHIT. I just realized I won't make it to the draft tomorrow and I don't trust yahoo worth a fuck. oh well. here's to luck! :p

set the draft order up then....

In the interests of total fairness, Yahoo randomly picks the draft order 30 minutes before we start.

I've never done a yahoo league, just nfl.com and there seem to be some differences.

In our league I see slots for
1 QB
2 RBs
3 WRs
1 TE
1 K
1 D

What about reserves? Are there any in this league?

I'm just trying to figure my draft strategy.

FireMillen - ????
BigBlue - BH14
Gore's Whores - Gorephobia
Roderick Usher - Roderick Usher
Asian Persuasian - persuasion
the Knives - knife_fight
The Flayed Ones - Flayed One
happycamper - ???
Scorpion316 - Austin316
Bordello of Blood - bwind22




Okay, I believe that Despare is in and I think Entity might be the other person I'm missing.... Could either of you two let me know which team is yours... Also, if anybody notices anything incorrect there, dont hesitate to set me straight.

Less than 24 hours until the draft starts so if you haven't checked in on the league for a while, it might not be a bad idea. If you can't make the live draft, you probably will want to edit your player rankings and draft options predraft because if Yahoo does it for you, they take little regard for positions you have filled, bye weeks, depth of position, etc....


Good luck everyone.

The positions you listed are the starters. You get a nice handful of reserves as well that stay on the bench (unless you put them in). No points from players that are benched.

can I just predict that everybody will be way overpaid?

20 mins 'till the draft!

YAY!

I am ready for this!

So....


Who's Firemillen & Happycamper?

I'm thinking about tossing my players and sitting out. I'll let you guys know before the season starts.

???


What? Why would you do that?

I dunno, but Firemillen is my opponent in week 1. it's projected to be a close matchup.

Firemillen is making roster moves already so it's someone that's paying attention.... I just wish they'd pay attention to us trying to figure out who they are.

I'm pretty happy with the waiver wire so far. Picked up Duckett & D'Angelo Williams

I couldn't log in into the draft and then I got in for the last 3 or 4 picks. I think I can still work with the roster. I am already thinking about pulling some trades soon.

Duckett's gonna have a big year with the 'Skins. Maybe not a ton of yards, but he'll be like Bettis in goal-line scenarios.

My team just sucks as far as I'm concerned but I'll work with.




I'm looking for any interesting offers as well.

What are you talking about?! Saying your team stinks?! I had Hasselback last season and he is very good QB. You also have Chad Johnson and Reggie Wayne. Thats a very good 1-2 WR punch.

As for a trade... if you wanna trade Tiki Barber, I will happily trade for him. Look at my roster and give me a trade offer.

I'm looking for a multi player for Barber. I'll take a look later.

I'm FireMillen


Damn pre-rankings... gotta make moves and quick! :)

Luckily for you guys that missed some or all of the draft, there are still plenty of good players out there.

If anyone wants trades with me, just propose me an offer. I'll consider anything as long as it looks fair.





Okay so Despare is Firemillen.... That just leaves happycamper that we need to figure out....

Hey knife fight, I sent you a trade proposal so check your team page and let me know what ya think. Feel free to counteroffer if you want.

So the only unidentified player is happycamper...


The yahoo ID he signed up with is mattwears.

Does anyone know who that is?

cool. let me take a look


edit: trade accepted. I'm a miserable New Orleans fan in spite of my better judgement. haha

Do we have to approve it or anything?

I am angry that I had The Colts Defense Depending on waivers till this morning and I got on and it said that someone else got it....



P.S. Is Happycamper Dante'snferno or Scouse Mac? because they both sounded like in the begining of this thread that they wanted to play.

Is this a joke? Knives.... You draft the best TE in the 2nd round and then trade him for Deuce McAllister who is going to be splitting carries with Bush.

That was me who got Colts defense... I got the Giants defense and Colts defense. I had first pick on the ww. I also got Cedric Benson to handcuff T. Jones. I got 5 RBs and will be looking to trade soon.

Click details of the trade and then you can decide to veto it or not veto it. Owners vote on it.

Yeah, if you guys dont think it's fair you can vote against it. I noticed he was a little thin at RB and I could stand to improve at TE so I sent it over and accepted.

In all honesty, I was fully expecting a counteroffer, but I underestimated knife's loyalty for the Saints. I believe it takes 4 votes to strike down a trade and just to help you guys out, I just voted against it myself. That way if only 3 of you think it's unfair, it'll get struck down. I won't be offended if it gets voted down, I'll simply resubmit a modified offer, so by all means, if anyone thinks it's unfair, vote against it.

Looks like there wont be many if any trades going on, at least not big trades obviously, unless it's something like Larry Johnson for Shaun Alexander which makes no sense anyway.

I'm trying to trade my Denver defense, so if anyone has anyone they might want to get rid of for them let me know.

I got 6 RBs?! I have Rudi Johnson, Ronnie Brown, K. Jones, T. Jones, C. Benson, Ah. Green. If anyone want to do a trade, give me an offer. Some owners need some RB depth.

I have Giants and Colts defense. I will take a look at your roster or you can just give me an offer.

I sent him a trade offer just to see if he's going to respond.

Two days and no response, I guess he's not going to be around.

I hope people play with integrity and don't do anything fishy in this league. I don't understand some of these trades. No offense to the owners but we seen McAllister for Gates and now, Dayne (who was cut and is probably 3rd depth RB for Texans) being traded for R. Smith (+80 catches, +1100 yards). I am not saying it's collusion but lets see quality for quality in trades.
