Swamp Fantasy Football 2014/2015

Post by wlu_lax6 »

Okay so with so few people here I figured we should start early. The Swamp Premiership has been setup. Invites were sent from Yahoo for the folks who were not relegated. I made my co-worker the greenbay icehouds the commissioner and he is going to kick me out (I was relegated).

League id is 67423

If the league does not fill up or we are not able to get 2 decent leagues, I propose we expand the premiership back up to more than 14 teams (yes just like ridiculous year 2 where we had 20 teams)

I have a league still, if we want to try and use that one.

Not sure if past players are still around, so not sure exactly how many leagues we'll be able to fill.

With the current state of the Swamp, I vote for opening up the league (allow more than 14 teams..maybe use divisions) and see if we can get promotion/relegation working again.

Le Bump.


As we are getting toward the 2nd week of pre-season, I guess we should get this organized if it's going to happen.

There are two leagues sort of created already, don't know if we have enough interest to fill those, or more than that. Could we get a sticky, and have interested players list their team name (if they can recall it) and past year league.

I think that the low level is the Unknown, don't know how many are in the premiership, but I'll gladly add people to the league, simply send me a PM with an email and I'll send an invite (it's on ESPN, so if you have an account their use that email.)

Could this be the year we standardize the rules across all swamp leagues? Same points, same positions, etc?

(Maybe get a flex spot? Maybe?)

We currently have 13 teams in the premiership (and I am not supposed to be in it but am holding a spot). Since I am not sure we are going to get organized. The Premiership is opening up to all who are interested (unless I get big pushback here). So PM me your email address and I will get you an invite. We will let the league grow to more than 14 teams.

Also I will look for a different draft time

Did someone say the draft date is changing? That day isn't going to work for me. Are we really playing a 16 team league, or hoping for a few more to split into two divisions?

Yes ESPN reregisters automatically.

If you were in last year you should be all set for this year. If you weren't in the league shoot me a PM with an email addy and I'll invite you. If you have an ESPN account please use the affiliated email.

Once we have it set I'll set up draft times.

If you are in Rush's Nationwide league, please cancel out of the Premiership league, so you aren't in both.

We need one more or one less in Premiership, so we get to an even number of teams.
