All,

So I was thinking it would be fun to get a group of us to play fantasy football. There would be no cost and just for bragging rights as the SD FFL champion. :tears:

So anyone interested? I will be glad to setup the league. The draft would be done via the Internet. If there is enough interest I will set it up early next week.

I'm in, if it's auto draft

Do we want to do an auto draft. It would make life easier for everyone?

I'm in! I've always wanted to try it, but as a poor student didn't want to lose any money. This is a perfect opportunity to learn.
Thanks for the idea and putting this together GentDiver!

And yes, I am a female that follows football.

I would be interested too, for the fun of it - but I've never participated in Fantasy Football. Can I request a 'tutorial'??? :rolleyes:

I love football - so will be fun to see what the 'fantasy' aspect is all about.... :wakawaka:

And since I have no idea what an 'autodraft' is - I have no input!

I'll give it a shot. I've never play it before so we will be needing a tutorial.

Ok all I have created league for us on ESPN. The league name is Singledivers and the password is snowdog. There is only room for 10 so the first 10 will be in the league. I have set the draft for September 5, 7:00 PM ET.

To play you will have to register with ESPN (sorry no way around that). So the first member name you will be asked for is your ESPN member name, then you will be asked for the league name and password.

It's free, so come on and play!!!

Yep - me too! I registered my name, and it brought up the league (singledivers) and your name (Scott M), but then it gave me that error message as well....

If the link below is not working then you can go to the ESPN fantasy football home page and join there. Or PM with your email address and team name and I will send you an invite.
