BCP Fantasy League

[rsxnova]

I created a fantasy football league for everyone here! I can up the number of teams if we need to. Sign up to espn and give me your email if you want in. I will change the draft time if we need to.

Basketball is normally my thing (won last season's BCP league!!!! mostly by default since I think everybody but me gave up by Feb, but still....), but for the fun of it, and because someone has to come in last, I'm game. But is there any way for the computer to make my picks automatically? I don't really have the time/interest to make picks myself via a draft, plus I wouldn't really even know who to get anyway outside of Drew Brees or Adrian Peterson and stay away from Panthers defense ;).

So yeah, if it's possible for the computer to pick for me automatically I'm up for it.

Yea you can let the computer autopick it for you.

[rsxnova]

Come on guys, lets fill this thing up.

[teej]

I joined...

[rsxnova]

Thanks. Im still trying to fill the league...

[Scottley Crue]

Been a few years since I've done fantasy football, but I'll give it a try.

[TheBeagle]

Thanks. Im still trying to fill the league...Sorry, man; I forgot. Send me an invite and I'll give it a go.

[rsxnova]

PM me your email and i will send you an invite.

[davcbow]

Guys I have never played fantasy anything (except about the ladies) but if someone would care to explain how to play to me I might join...:cool:

[teej]

^Basically, you just pick your players in a draft, and they score points on how they do week-to-week. Whoever's fantasy team has the most points wins. Really easy unless you're a geek about it, which none of us really are...

[Scottley Crue]

I joined, too.

Yeah, I used to play in a league where guys took it waaay too seriously. That rips all the fun out of it.

[TheBeagle]

Guys I have never played fantasy anything (except about the ladies) but if someone would care to explain how to play to me I might join...:cool: Awesome! Come on and join up, dav! You can do like me and let the computer pick your players for you, and then once a week, you make sure to adjust your lineup so that you'll have somebody playing that week at each position. You'll have a starting team of:

1 QB
2 RBs
2 WRs
1 TE
1 K
1 Defense

and then a bench (I think that's right). But yeah, if you just play for the fun of it, it's easy as pie to do.

[rsxnova]

Dave, send me your email and ill send you an invite.

[rsxnova]

I have 5 people. Lets see if we can get a few more.

[davcbow]

[ziggy]

I didn't get the invite. What day did you send it?

[davcbow]

Whats up with the fantasy league? When is draft? when do we start?

[rsxnova]

We can draft when ever you guys want. I still have to get ziggy into the league because something happened to his invite. We will only have 6 teams so i am going to expand the rosters.

[teej]

How about right after week one, maybe Tuesday?

[Scottley Crue]

Tuesday's fine by me.

[rsxnova]

Tuesday's fine by me.

Tuesday it is. At what time? Scottley, i just noticed you live five minutes from me.

[Scottley Crue]

Tuesday it is. At what time? Scottley, i just noticed you live five minutes from me.
I'm thinking something like 7 or 7:30pm, in that neighborhood, if that works for everyone.

Nah, we're not that far apart Nova. In reality, if Rockwell was big enough to have outskirts, that's where I live.

[teej]

Sounds good Scottley.

[davcbow]

Sounds good to me too...:cool:

[rsxnova]

Hey guys, espn wont let me do the tuesday for some reason. Do is the 16th at 7:30 fine?

[teej]

Hey guys, espn wont let me do the tuesday for some reason. Do is the 16th at 7:30 fine?

[Scottley Crue]

Except for Daniels, McFadden, and Moreno, I'd really be worried about that roster...

[rsxnova]

Yea man everything is all good. Do you guys want a waivers or not.

Make a trade for a high end WR and you're set dude. Brees will rack up fantasy points alllll day

[davcbow]

LOL figures Id have the team most like last seasons Bobcats, No offense, good defense.....:biggrin:

[rsxnova]

Anyone want to trade? I just picked up Hasslback and Flacco which makes Cutler expendable.

[teej]

Who would want Cutler?? He has no receivers, and looked AWFUL this week.

[rsxnova]

I wish i started cutler today.

[davcbow]

I want to place a player on the bench and take a player off the bench and play him, how the heck do I do that???

Go to My Team - Roster, then where it says "move", click that and it will highlight a player you can put in that spot, that's how ;)

Thanks TeeJ I like my line up much better now....:cool:

Any interest in hockey? I made a thread on the all other sports board, but don't think anyone ever really looks at that one. I know this is a thread for the football league, but I didn't want to start two new threads about the same thing. Anyway, link:

at the risk of sounding like a whining bitch, i can't buy a fucking break so far. case in point, week 1 i have the 2nd most points scored in the league...but of course my opponent has the most....playing anyone else, i blow them up.

then the next week, myplayers do well again, but i've got a fucking bye. then, this week is a replay of week 1...ihave 2nd most points by a long shot but my opponent has the most!!

i'm reminded why i only do this once every 4 or 5 years....very frustrating.

oh well, basketball's coming up, i'll be defending my crown, thank you very much.... :p

If other people did it I would, but I'm not into hockey except playoff time for the Hurricanes.

[Walt Cronkite]

^It only took me 30 minutes to find 8/10 owners. Ironically, the final guy I'm waiting for is an actual hockey fan. The ESPN standard league is ridiculous!

17 starters
SEVENTEEN STARTERS

crazy categories

Weirdest fantasy set up I've ever seen.

[davcbow]

I may do it, when does it start walt? :cool:

[rsxnova]

When will the BCP basketball league start? I want in on that.
