Anyone else interested in starting a free fantasy hoops league on Yahoo? So far, we have 5 people.

Doughhater
Wayabvpar
ThaSaltCracka
Nolanfan34
Me

We need at least 5 more teams, and could deal with as many as 7 more.

Score 25 points a game and walk as a free agent, most likely.

What's your plan in this league, draft all the PG's and not trade them to anyone? /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

what else is there to talk about.... I am not in a good mood, although watching Team America again cheered me up some.

ThaSaltCracka

10-21-2004, 01:34 AM

cprhou, so whats the deal?

cjromero

10-21-2004, 08:32 AM

Okay. The ten teams will be:

1. Doughhater
2. Wayabvpar
3. ThaSaltCracka
4. Nolanfan34
5. Cprhou
6. Neil Stevens
7. Scrub
8. NL Soldier
9. Bugstud
10. WEASEL45

What scoring system on Yahoo do we want to use? The choices are:

1. Rotisserie league (most total points in categories for the season wins)
2. Fantasy points (again total points for the season wins)
3. Head-to-head (you face one other team each week and compete in various categories. Each category you win that week counts as a win, each category you lose counts as a loss, and there are also ties)

I vote for head-to-head.

scrub

10-21-2004, 08:54 AM

I also vote for head to head, as it facilitates smack talking, which, as far as I can tell, is what fantasy sports are all about.

I usually do fantasy points, buts lets try head to head, that sounds like more fun that rotiseree.

Damn, this will be the third fantasy league I will be in /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Is ten the max for fantasy basketball? I'd like to play if possible.

I think 12 is an OK number.

I also vote that we have a live draft, if possible.

I know you can go up to 14.

Live draft would be cool as well, but I will auto mine.

I would like to play if there is an open slot.

ThaSaltCracka

10-21-2004, 01:13 PM

another Seattle guy....

Well with you and Augie thats 12. 12 is a good solid number.

cjromero

10-21-2004, 01:15 PM

I am fine with 12. A live draft certainly works best.

wayabvpar

10-21-2004, 01:49 PM

If we go head to head, I will end up with the highest scoring team overall, but with a .500 record at best. It is my curse that every other team has their best week of the season against me. At least that is how it works in football.

RcrdBoy

10-21-2004, 02:08 PM

If you guys need another I'd be into it. Don't know if you have 12 yet.

I'd like to have a chance to earn back some of my money from that football league that appears to be rigged.

How else to explain how I have the 5th highest point total and am in 10th? /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Also, keep me in mind if you already have 12 and someone bails.

ThaSaltCracka

10-21-2004, 02:10 PM

no money for this league, I don't think atleast.

doughhater

10-21-2004, 03:14 PM

I wouldn't mind putting some money down, but you would have to fly to Vegas to collect. When were you thinking of having the draft?

Neil Stevens

10-21-2004, 05:51 PM

The last one I played in was rotisserie, so head-to-head is fine by me.

WEASEL45

10-21-2004, 05:57 PM

Head to Head is good with me

Neil Stevens

10-21-2004, 06:00 PM

I feel like I should know which year that ring is from. Do I set too high a standard for myself?

How the heck can you guys have a fantasy league with no money on the line?

If you can't count on somebody to put up at least $10 for a league then how can you count on them to participate?

Plus, gambling rules.

ThaSaltCracka

10-21-2004, 07:17 PM

I think a couple people said they wouldn't participate if it was for money.

RcrdBoy

10-21-2004, 08:04 PM

Then you guys need to find some people to gamble on this league.

Don't let those non-gambling pussies ruin it for the rest of you. /images/graemlins/mad.gif

Live draft is definately the best, anyone have any ideas when we would have it? It seems like it will be pretty tough to coordinate 12 peoples schedules.

Yeah it would be, thats partly why I would set mine to auto draft. Oh well, thats one less person to worry about!!!

Since I don't have a schedule, it's really coordinating 11 people's schedules... /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Is there any reason that the the people who want to put money on it can't without the participation of all?

Some of us just have no interest in putting hard-earned money at risk on the antics of undisciplined, wealthy strangers.
