[Rockmeister]

If someone backs out, I would like to join again.

 

[VF21]

I just expanded the league to 14, to accomodate the additional two players. If we get any cancellations, additional new players will be added OR we'll just reduce the league back to 12.

Rock - Password is on its way.

 

[Rockmeister]

Got it. Thanks

 

[Evilmav2]

Count me in. Thanks for the heads-up, VF ...

 

[nebs]

Damn. Same problem for me in the other league.. the draft time. Anyway to push it back?

I'm still in though regardless.

 

[VF21]

The draft slots were filling very rapidly. I grabbed the one closest to last year's. I'm just glad Rock posted her thread when she did or we could be drafting at 7 a.m. or something.

I remembered during this time last year, that the time slots were quickly being taken, so I actually put a reminder on my calendar to get it started.

 

[Gary]

I wanted my dad to get into fantasy football this year so if there is a spot available this year could he have a chance? I have been bugging him this whole year, and the whole NCAA tourney was the first "fantasy game" he was involved in ever. Needless to say he liked it and is wanting to be in a FF league.

"Gary's dad" is now first alternate. Remember, per rules of the league, he'll have to join Kingsfans.com to actually participate.

 

[nebs]

Mannnn I really don't want to miss both drafts. Both by a couple hours.

 

[Adam X]

I'm in.

 

[Entity]

I'd like a spot if at all possible.

 

[VF21]

Alternate list:

1. Gary's dad
2. Entity
3. Monty'sBiggest Fan

 

[Gary]

I will get him to join. He's not much into message boards, but I will have him come by and introduce himself.

 

[VF21]

If by any chance we don't get any dropouts, I'll consider starting another overflow league similar to the Avis league we have for the NBA.

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

If it will help with an overflow league, put me down. I played in the league a few seasons ago (thank you NOT Matt Hasselbeck) and looks like I can carve out some time to play again this season.

 

[VF21]

thanks, MBF! I've added you to the list. It's looking more and more like I'll be adding another league so if anyone wants to be put on the list, let me know. People who aren't playing in other leagues, except for the commissioner (of course), will be given first preference but I know there are always a couple of people who have to be in every league.

 

[STF15]

I won't be participating this season, I will hopefully next season, thanks for the invite again though.

 

[VF21]

With STF15 declining, Gary's dad is in. That makes the alternate list as follows:

1. Entity
2. Monty'sBiggestFan

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

I'm in!

 

[VF21]

Since Alacron has not checked in and has not been on the board for months, I'm going back to the waiting list.

Congratulations, Entity. You're in.

Just a reminder: If any of you will not be able to actively participate, please let me know now.

 

[Josh]

I am in!

 

[VF21]

Welcome to the new participants, including my son-in-law Josh.



Looks like we're going to have a good group again.

 

[Alacron]

Hey folks... just checkin' back in after my lengthy absence.

Don't think I'll have time to participate this year. Starting at Sac State with a full schedule.

I'll only have time to follow one sport this fall... think that'll be basketball.

[VF21]

Glad to hear from you, Alacron, even if you won't be with us this season for the fantasy league. Good luck with your studies at Sac State. Be sure and check back once in a while to let us know how you're doing.

 

[Fear the Putin]

Can I join, or is the league full already?
Completely forgot about this site's fantasy section.

 

[VF21]

Sorry. The league is full. You might check with Rockmeister. She might have some openings in the other league.

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

Okeeee...I had another player I had roped in to play in whatever league I joined...is there still room in the alternate league?

 

[Gary]

ONE DAY AND A FEW HOURS UNTIL THE DRAFT!

It's tough to know who to pick since a lot of teams do that crappy RB by committee now. Last season was the worst season for fantasy RBs since 1990 when pretty much only casinos did the fantasy football thing.

If I am middle of the draft I will probably take best available RB, or if one isn't there will probably go best WR, then a dark horse RB in the second round.

OH BTW... I have to teach my pops how to draft tomorrow lol.. He's never done this before, and I will be there at his house bright and early to help him with the draft.
