Fantasy Football Sign Ups!

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/july0nesties9

PW is knotnest

Right now I have it set up as a live draft on Friday, Sept. 2nd at 9:30 pm EST. I realize this probably isn't the best time, but a lot of the other timeslots were already filled up. Other options would be before 7 pm EST or after 11 pm EST (either weekday or weekend) -- let me know if you'd prefer one of those better. If the majority does I'll move the draft. You don't have to be there for the draft - the system will pick for you based on your pre-rankings if you're not there.

Any other questions, let me know.

 

Re: Fantasy Football Sign Ups!

  • I signed up!

  • Hmmm, it won't let me sign up. I tried clicking the link from the e-mail I was sent because I had a team last year, and it tells me that my invitation is no longer valid. So, then I tried clicking the link in this post, and it tells me: "You are not allowed to view this page because you are not in this league. (Error #152)". Anyone else?

  • I got the 2nd error message too.  I tried logging in before clicking on kate's e-mail.  I'm not sure why you are getting the error after using kate's link though.

  • The league ID is 446641 - not sure if that will help?
  • Thanks ladies! I figured it out, it was happening because DH's yahoo account was automatically being logged in. I'm in!

  • I want to play, but I have never done fantasy anything and I don't know much about football.  Can someone explain how it works?

  • You dont really have to know much about football to join.  If you can't make the live draft the computer will pick the players for you.  They are basically ranked  in order from best to worst (according to FF standings) and the computer will tell you what positions you need to pick.  It's fun and there's a chat so you can keep up with the other ladies while someone else is drafting.

    Are husbands allowed to help and/or participate?

    Matt did the draft and maintained the team all of last year... so yes :)

    I'd rather the husbands not make their own teams, but there's no rule against husbands helping out. I'm pretty sure Matt helped Krissy out quite a bit last year!

  • Yeah without Matt's help, Krissy would have been done for last year lol and it was fun sh*t talking with him :-P  hahah :)  I joined!  So excited!! :)  That time is great for me...I can't do before 7pm b/c I'll be working (unless it's at like 6pm-any time before that is out for me)!

    LOL you told us that last year!  You could have kept it a secret and hidden the fact he helped you, then we all would have been like WHOA KRISSY!!!  :-P

    You don't need knowledge of football. I only know basics and somehow won last year. I drafted based on whether I liked the person's name and how they were ranked.

    It did get me more interested in paying attention to the games though!

  • I don't think I'm going to do it this year.  I have a short attention span with this stuff and was completely bored with it by the end of the season.  So someone else can capture Peyton for themselves this year!

  • You know I'm in! I have TWO brains helping me now! hahaha

    Labor Day weekend I should be in NC so none of those days are good for me. We have a draft on the 21st here already so that day is out for me too. Any other ones will work great!
