Hey, because we no longer have Sierra around to host the Suikox Fantasy Football League here (or so I'm told. If I'm wrong then I feel like a complete tard and will hang my head in shame.) I'll take the responsibility of hosting the league this year.

I am sort of unsure how it was done last year, but I know there was actually 2 leagues. If I can avoid this, I'd like to. Also, I'm unsure of what rules, regulations and such we all played by. I remember trades were vetoed by group vote, not Commissioner and we dropped the "Undroppable" players.

I suppose we could still do the 2 league thing, but the problem with that is we never had one clear winner. Barbarossa and Equus won their respective division, but there really was no way to determine a final standing.

So, for now, I'll open the slots for the first 12 (11 because I'm in) people. If by July 31st (when I plan on actually creating the league) we have more than 12, we can decide what we want to do.

This first post will show who's signed up.

1. RedCydranth*
2. Sailor Sexy*
3. Shad*
4. Tullaryx*
5. Locke*
6. Weyoun*
7. Fuji*
8. Geddoe
9. Calvin*
10. Synchysi*
11. Samurai X*
12. Amyral*

* = joined league

Also, because Yahoo is a doll, we can decide whether we want to begin a Keeper League this year. I'm all for it, as long as its not retrospective to last year's rosters. We have quite a few people who left the site that played with us. Keeper Leagues can run into issues when people quit. So, maybe its not for us.

I believe the standard 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF will be our set up. With so many people any more slots really thins the talent pool, especially around week 6-7 when injuries really racking up. As for points, I personally have always favored TDs as 6 regardless of who gets it. Passing, Rushing, Defensive and Receiving. I'm also in favor of making Special Teams return TDs worth 6 for that player (Making Hester or some other specialist a worthwhile pick) but that can all be discussed later. Same with how much Passing yards, rec yards and rush yards are worth. We've got a month and a half to decide the semantics, but for now if we can just get who's in set up, we'll be in good shape.

Any changes to the above can be discussed (in a civilized manner please, no name calling or anything) as well.

Because I showed fuji last year where the bears use the Charmin in the woods, I'll certainly play again this year. Third was alright considering I would miss out on adjusting my rosters when I was out at sea, but with my spiffy new aircard, that's no longer as big an issue, so sign me up :)

If you faggots leave me out again I'll kill you, the lot of you.

I placed first in the FFGurus league last year and second in 2006 I'll have you know, out of two years competing. :D

Just a thought, I highly, highly encourage you guys to set up the league so we can pick individual defensive players this year. That's how we do it in FFG, and it's a lot more fun, I think. It'll put new names on the plate for you that deserve a lot more credit than they typically get. DeMaco Ryans has done more for helping me stay on top these past two years than anyone save Peyton Manning.

I've never done Defensive players in the draft. Does Yahoo even allow that option? I know at ESPN they do. I'll look into it, but we'll see what everyone else whats to do first.

We do have a DEF slot where you pick a team's defense in general. So by picking the NYG defense last year you got all INT, Fumbles and Defensive TDs they got. On the downside, if they got scored against a lot, you'd lose some points.

Another question on that, How would a unique player like Hester fit into that? Would I have to place him as either a WR or DB or can he be both like he is for the Bears?

Yahoo has Independent Defensive Players option. As for the Devin Hester that would depend on how Yahoo labels him. They'll either set him up as a defensive player or offensive. I don't think they've ever give Iron Man status for any player. Iron Man being a player who players both sides of the ball throughout the lenght of the game. I, too, would recommend IDP be used. It just makes for having a more balanced line-up.

Yahoo does allow for IDP leagues, and either or it doesn't matter to me. I'm fine with just selecting a DEF, but if the majority want to pick individual players, then that's fine too.

Well, since the league I run every year is doing IDP, I checked on Hester. He's listed as a WR.

Fantasy Baseball is fun this year, my first time doing it. I remember that Fantasy Football was fun when I did it back in 2005, before I went all Deist on the league. Sign me up!

I've just let Red know that I'm in for the league this year.

I must avenge my pitiful performance in the last few weeks of the league. And I wouldn't mind a chance to kick Soojie's ass this year, should he sign up.

But yeah. I'm in. I might have to autodraft this year [living out here in the boonies is no flamin joke, I SWEAR] but I wouldn't want to miss out on the fun that is fantasy league time.

PS: Irony is the fact that last year, I was watching cable, which means I didn't have NFLN or the League Pass option...this year, I've got NFLN and League Pass BUT NO DAMN COMPUTER CONNECTION. Why me?

I really should check this forum more often. >_>

I presume I'm not too late in signing up. Yahoo certainly allows individual defensive players in their lineups; the league I commish there has been using 6 defensive players (2 general D, 2 DL (includes LB), 2 DB) for the past 4 years.

I'll sign up--but it might be a situation where I don't have reliable internet access until right around when the season starts. I'm sure I can work around it though.

I didn't get the chance to beat the snot out of fuji last year because I was in the other league; I can't let a little internet trouble ruin my fun.^^
