General Chat / Fantasy Football 2013

Im in as well. Hopefully with some more success this time around.

Looking good, I think Chapelz and gir will likely re-join, but JDP possibly not. I know from H2H6 that he has like 3 part-time jobs right now and is very busy.

Once we get to 12 I think we'll wait a day then likely start to draft around the end of the week.

When does the season start in RL ?

I will join

I'm in

Ok guys the draft will start tomorrow around noon EST.

I got a text from JDP saying he's in, so we have a dozen guys sign-up and that's a pretty good number. Chapelz has not replied here or to my texts today, so unless he shows up prior to noon tomorrow rct2isboss will be in the league replacing him. If does show up he's in and sorry rct2isboss, but he's been with us for 3 years and even was a co-league champion in 2010.

May seem early, for the draft, but this is not rare in leagues with keepers. Also with IDP it's about double the amount of picks.

Dude....WAY too soon for the draft. Maybe you're ready to draft a team...but, I'm pretty sure the rest of us would like more than a mere few hours to scout players. I mean....you just announced the fucking league less than 48 hours ago.

Give us some time to actually plan for the draft. Particularly with the IDP coming in.

We've never drafted before the pre-season has even started before......what's the fucking rush?

Just used a draft order randomizer site to get our draft order, which is...

1. Kumba
2. Panther
3. Top Gun
4. K0NG
5. gir
6. Phatage
7. JKay
8. JDP
9. Comet
10. Deano
11. tdub
12. rct2isboss

Honestly I did it once and happened to get the top pick, which I kinda hate...

We'll start tomorrow, at noon EST. Each player will have 6 hours to make their pick. That time limit excludes the hours between 1am to 8am in the timezone of whoever's pick is up. If you know you'll be busy when your pick comes up, just send a short list of who you want in the order you want them to me or someone who can contact me when your pick is up.

For the majority of you I have your cell numbers and we can text. If I don't might be a good idea for you to PM it to me so I can text you when your pick comes up, then you can likely just text me your pick and this goes fast.

I think we will go with 8 keepers in this league, that way you can keep most of your starting unit going into next season. Sound good?

This convo will be moved primarily to a league PM when the draft starts tomorrow.

Basically locks up my choice with Brady

How exactly does the individual Defense work, are we gonna set up a league before the draft so we know who is taken and what we still need while we're drafting

If not that's fine we can just make mental notes I just think it'd be easier that way

Round 1 recap:
1. GB QB Aaron Rodgers (Kumba)
2. NE QB Tom Brady (Panther33)
3. CAR QB Cam Newton (Top Gun)
4. HOU RB Arian Foster (K0NG)
5. BAL RB Ray Rice (gir*)
6. NYG QB Eli Manning (Phatage)
7. DET WR Calvin Johnson (JKay)
8. NO QB Drew Brees (JDP)
9. PHI RB LeSean McCoy (Comet)
10. SD RB Ryan Mathews(Deano)
11. DET QB Matthew Stafford (tdub)
12. JAC RB Maurice Jones-Drew (rct2isboss)

Round 2 just underway with...
13. SF LB Patrick Willis (rct2isboss)

We are using a PM to draft. Not sure if anyone cares, maybe I wont post here again

We need a replacement owner for this team.

Please reply ASAP if your interested.

Still need an owner for this team

It's free and you get to play K0NG in week 1! Please reply if you want in. It's unlikely a spot will open in this league in the future.

But, you're already behind....so, wait until next week.

That being said....the available team is pretty fucking solid. Deano (our defending champ) drafted most of it and Kumba (who cheats like no other) finished drafting it for you. It's not like it was all auto-drafted. So, whoever decides to grab this opportunity has a really good team.

All you have to do is manage it from here on out.

Deano said he'll take it back. Did not seem passionate about it, but said he'll keep it updated. I am not 100% sure this means we do not have an open spot in the league.

Kumba vs. Comet = Unless Rivers goes for an insane 44 point game, Kumba wins and sets new league scoring record
Phatage vs. Juan Paco = Phatage is up, but needs to fend off two good WRs and only has a S and K to up his lead, will be close.
Top Gun vs. Panther = Looks like TG has this one in the bag unless Ed Redd goes for about 5 or 6 defensive TDs, quite unlikely...
K0NG vs. Team 12/Deano = K0NG should win here, which will need he's better than every 'expert' at ESPN
JDP vs. gir = JDP is up by 16 points, but will almost surely lose to the high scoring position players gir will have going tonight.
tdub vs. JKay = The elections in Florida and Pennsylvanian are TOO CLOSE TO CALL

Overall I think it's quite clear I'll make each and everyone of you my bitch this season

Considering that the IDP's point totals should surpass the D/ST totals...a new league scoring record was a given.

As far as anyone being your 'bitch' here...the only thing clear is that you'll adjust scoring, change the rules mid-season, make a LM "executive decision" or two along the way and somehow convince someone that a Tom Brady/Adrian Peterson/Antonio Gates for John Skelton/David Wilson/Coby Fleener type trade will be a good thing for them to ensure it.

About my point total, that half fact, half joke. It's quite likely we'll have someone score over 200 at some point.

You do know there is a trade review, heck I'll text everyone if there is a trade. So far I traded RG3 for Luck and draft picks. Seem a lot more fair now right?

As soon as the Chargers/Raiders kickoff tonight you can all start to make your waiver claims. My advice is to claim A LOT of players and make sure you have them in the right priority order. You'll see who you get early Wednesday morning.

wins and sets new league scoring record

UnFUCKINGbelievable.....guess it's gonna be one of those seasons again.
