1. Does anyone else want to play?  2. Does the league have to be 10 people? Would anyone be dissapointed if it was 8? Either one worls for me.  3. Couple people have said they would join but they have not joined yet.  4. The draft is currently set friday because well I had to pick a day, is that bad? Should it be pushed back?

What site do you use? I'm an ESPN guy, but I could live with NFL.com. Any other non-sports site I tend to shy away from when it comes to fantasy, especially Yahoo.

Friday definitely won't be good for me, I'll be at Gencon, as will Ted. Jeff uses Yahoo, which I don't care too much for, but it's not too bad. At least Yahoo's Fantasy Football app is free, unlike ESPN's!

Guess I will push it back. Yeah yahoo is what i use bro. Yeah yahoo updates the points through out the day which was nice last year for free. Maybe ESPN does? I have no idea?  The drafting on sites are fine. I like the interface on yahoo a lot better. Their are a couple other reason why. ESPN is great for joining 20 team leagues through.  NFL.com is a interesting idea. But the draft does not make noise when its your turn, I do not really care for the look that much and some other reasons.. Again I prefer yahoo.  One thing is for sure through all those sites are better than fox sports, fantasy football page. Don't even get me started on fanball.  yahoo League ID#: 148697 League Name: Why you fry poor Greado man??? Password: bloomilk

I just tried to join your league and got the following error.
"There was a problem. There is not room in this league if all teams from last year return. To join, get the commissioner to increase the maximum number of teams, or remove teams that will not be returning. (Error #638)"
Either you are already full, or you will need to clear some space out so new teams can be created.
On another note, I have been using yahoo leagues to run my leagues for the past 10 years and I love it. Yahoo has majorly improved within the last few years, for those of you who have not used it in a while. StatTracker is free, so you can keep track of how your team is doing throughout the day as games are being played. Fully customizable draft that can carry over from year to year if you play keeper leagues. Plus, if you're a smartphone user, there is a free downloadable app that lets you set your roster for the week, pickup and drop players, and keep track of how your team is doing during games if you are away from your computer.
The only change I would make is to the draft date. Since the CBA was just agreed upon, and there are soooo many moves being made throughout the league, I would suggest doing the draft a little closer to the beginning of the season. That way owners will have a better idea of which players will be with which teams when they start drafting. I usually hold my drafts within the 10 days before the season starts.

I like to have drafts where at least some of the preseason has already been played.

Getting close to filling out the league.  The one person I know wants to sign up if their is still room but he has not signed up yet Don't know why. Couple other people would sign up if I need them too but may not have time to do the league justice.  Asked couple other people but who knows.

Sorry Guys about not joining up again this year. I had a great time last year but this year I'm up to my ears in Work and have been working long hours as well as 4 other fantasy football leagues. I know , I know..." STOP WHINING !!! " as Arnold would say...I don't think I can do it justice this year though. If you get in a bind though, I will be a fill in. Have a good season!

-Question. No one has said that they do not like 8 team leagues.Is anyone in favor or against this idea? I know the hounds actually like this better, any other opinions? We can not have 9 teams  - What if the draft was on the 19th, will anyone show up? I would like someone to be their and my self of course.

I'm fine for whenever, I just work everday until 8pm, except Mondays. So preferably after 9 any day is good for me.
