2013 Promotion/Relegation Fantasy Football Sign Up

Re: 2013 Promotion/Relegation Fantasy Football Sign Up
Shrew/Justin/Ketchup Sawx here. I've managed to figure out that I've been bumped up to Unknown. I accomplished this by using a dowsing rod. Reading the previous posts may have helped but I'm pretty sure this is concrete evidence that dowsing works and should be accepted by the medical community as a legitimate method for treating illness.
Anyhoo, Sent Rush a PM and hoping I'm not too late.

Sent invites to Duff and Shrew. Missing the two above and a mystery team to make 14.Rush2112 wrote:I need to find out who a couple of these people are and need emails for invites to the Unknown league:
Blood of Tebow ?
staubach
Anyway for the Commish of last years league to find out who Blood of Tebow is? Has Staubach been here? I don't see his name in the members list.
Should we just open the last three teams up for first-come-first serve?

Just a follow-up note. I am not available this season for FF. I was in the Unknown League.

Re: 2013 Promotion/Relegation Fantasy Football Sign Up
We need three teams for the Unknown league. As Staubach and Blood of Tebow haven't responded and we've got another slot open I'm opening up ownership to whomever wants them.
PM me an email and I'll send an invite..league is on ESPN.

Waiting for the last manager to join.
Please let me know on the league homepage what dates/days and times are best for y'all. Like to have as few autodrafters as possible.

Re: 2013 Promotion/Relegation Fantasy Football Sign Up
As we supposedly have someone shut out of the Premiership (though he hasn't responded to Unknown invites,) Jerloma and elflaco want in should we have a 16 team Unknown?

The time works for me. I don't care about 16, why not?

Re: 2013 Promotion/Relegation Fantasy Football Sign Up
After you finish your draft, Yahoo has a "Draft Analyzer" you can pick, that assesses your picks. Kind of bs, because the computer would logically think that one's best possible draft would be whatever auto-pick would have chosen for you.rass wrote:This looks like the Premier League Draft Order:

Having said that, it was a bit depressing to read the assessment of my freshly-picked team. To paraphrase a bit, it essentially told me, "You took too many running backs too early, and the ones you picked were mostly crap anyway. As a result, you neglected your wide receivers, so thus, you have a bunch of bums at both running back and wide receiver. Overall, your team is shit and you won't make the playoffs."
Great!

CBS does the same thing. I was cited for having the worst draft of the league because my "starting squad is ranked dead last in expected points."

Re: 2013 Promotion/Relegation Fantasy Football Sign Up
So is the unknown draft on espn set up like our drafts usually are? I did one random draft on ESPN for laughs and it was an auction. Frankly, I'm barely sophisticated enough to so the snake style draft let alone an auction. I ended up with 2 NY Jets at RB because I blew my money in the early rounds. NOt good ones wither--Powell and Goodsen, and Powell is suspended!
From what I could gather, the successful guys in auctions let schmucks like me blow the bulk of their money on premiere players like Adrian Peterson and Arian Foster then outbid me on every other position.
Edit: Did we agree on 09/03 8:00 EST as a time for the draft?

Yes. We maybe a 14 team league though. Someone (I don't know their Swamp handle) that should have been in the premiership and Jerloma haven't registered.
I need to lock the league by noon tomorrow. So we may just go 14 OR need an additional person.

Re: 2013 Promotion/Relegation Fantasy Football Sign Up
It's funny comparing their draft grades with their matchup scores.
I don't think they liked mine, I had to autodraft so I excluded all kickers, got the lowest grade.

Of course jhiphop/reaper/myopponentthisweek has PManning (not to mention DThomas). 46 points almost seems low.

Yeah, they did. I ended up overhauling my team the week of our trade deadline with three trades (six players out, six players in) to get more keeper options for next year and have gone on a four-game win streak that has me still alive for the postseason.Gunpowder wrote:DSafetyGuy wrote:

But to be fair, our trade was the fairest of the two you pulled off that week. (Someone sent DSG Demaryius Thomas in exchange for Trent Richardson straight up.)

The Rice for Spiller deal was pretty fair, too.

Of course, I'm likely keeping Stafford and Martin, so thanks for your generosity.
And, yeah, I couldn't believe that guy offered Thomas for Richardson.
