Are you ready for some football? American, Fantasy, that is?

I am going to run one league again this year. It will be a Yahoo League - Free - and open to only 12 players (11 others plus myself). The format will be head-to-head, with playoffs and superbowl to happen weeks 14-16 of the regular season. It's a blast, but before you sign on, read the following:

1) Don't play unless you're serious. There's nothing more frustrating than having other players drop out during the season.

2) We will use an automated draft, not a live, on-line draft. (if you're not sure what that means, see #1). Trying to orchestrate a live draft is more trouble than it's worth (to me).

3) I'll have Yahoo draft our teams about 1 week before the first regular season game. After joining, you can give player preferences and draft recommendations online.

If you're interested, PM me your email address and I'll send you an invite. The first 11 who PM me and follow through with the signup will be in.

I use Yahoo to manage my other league and want to keep it consistent (for my own comfort). I've tried a few other online sites and have always come back to Yahoo.

Real Man's Fantasy has an $89 fee to run the league. Granted, that's not much when you spread it out over 12 players, but I don't want to have to collect cash from people on a DPC league. I just want to do it for fun, and have people be able to join without paying anything. The nice thing about Yahoo is that you can buy the real-time package for a small fee - if you want it. Nobody is obligated to pay anything to join this league.

Still 8 spots available. PM me an email address and you're in. See the OP for info.

Would you believe it? I am the 'official photographer' of my fantasy football team. I get in to all the games free, mix with the whole team staff including President and GM. But the players seem a little distant.

Dr. Confuser: you can be the official photographer of our team too. We don't discriminate against Nikons.

Yes, I'm planning autodraft. Once we get a full compliment, I'm willing to consider trying a live draft though.

I just sent you a PM. I'm in if there is room.

Either way is fine with me. Just tell me what day/time either way.

Two more spots.

I still have two openings in this league, though I think I've sent out some invites that have not been responded to yet. The season starts in one month. First two to respond to my invites will be in. PM me your email.
