Deeмo 100 June 22, 2012 Share June 22, 2012 (edited) Since we're less than three months left of the NFL season, I've decided to make this thread to discuss a possible MLP Fantasy Football League, exclusively for this forum. CBSSports.com is available to create a league right away, but I need suggestions on how we should set this league up. That means, finding the right time to setup the perfect date for the draft, so there won't be any interference for those are still in high school or going to college, finding the people on here that are experienced in knowing how to play this fantasy sport, those who commit to play for a full season and those who show up in the draft on time. We need to discuss this in advance so we're all be ready for the upcoming season. P.S. No quitters, no abandonment, no bullshit! Edited June 22, 2012 by Deemo 14 NATIONAL TITLES AND COUNTING!

Why-Gnome-Ear-Fifty 400 June 23, 2012 Share June 23, 2012 OH YES OH YES OH YES OH YES OH YES. But why not NFL.com, I have all 4 of my other teams there Ah well. Fantasy Football is something that I go all out in. Also, I recommend offline draft because times are too hard to coordinate, and we could do it right on the forums! (Another reason to do NFL.) I could actually set it up like right now if you wanted. Also, anything about outside help? My friend and I typically do it together other than the league we compete against each other in (He always wins.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akemi Homura 7,680 June 23, 2012 Share June 23, 2012 ... Whatever you guys do, you'd better draft me, because I am going to have a monster season. 10 interceptions, 20 passes defended, 80 tackles, 2 sacks, BOOK IT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor XFizzle 8,669 June 25, 2012 Share June 25, 2012 (edited) It's way too early to create a league or draft now. Imagine having all your superstars suffer season-ending injuries during training camp. That would suck. I vote for using ESPN when the time comes because I'm most familiar with their system. And the draft should be at most 2 weeks before week 1.

Doctor XFizzle 8,669 June 25, 2012 Share June 25, 2012 Yeah, you and I know about injury horrors. Who can forget The Matt Cassel Experience and then Stafford just had his first legitimate rookie season last year.

I have to apologize to you Why-Gnome-Ear-Fifty, but we're doing the live draft in this league. I'm online all the time at home, I'm not all okay with offline drafts, but that's just me. Now, if you want to create a league that does offline drafts, you are free to create your league for that. It's way too early to create a league or draft now.

And the draft should be at most 2 weeks before week 1. This is why I want to plan this early as possible, so we can all agree on what site the league we'll be playing in (cbssports ESPN, or NFL.com), the date and time of the draft and the people that will be competing, ahead of time. A couple of guys vote for ESPN right now, I'm okay with that, I just have to sign up. Edited June 26, 2012 by Deemo 14 NATIONAL TITLES AND COUNTING!

Deeмo 100 June 27, 2012 Author Share June 27, 2012 Ok, since we're going with ESPN for this league, maybe I should suggest the best date to do the draft. I'm thinking the time between 7:00-9:00 PM ET would be the perfect time to do the draft. Now for the date, should we do the live draft around late July or early August? 14 NATIONAL TITLES AND COUNTING!

Mid-August, sometime around the 14th-18th, which is around week 2 of preseason that way everyone has a good idea who's injured, where certain players are going to be on their teams' depth charts, and because nothing else important goes on in August lol Edited June 27, 2012 by Doctor XFizzle MLP Forums' resident timelord, sports dilettante, and purveyor of wit and humor~*Traveling Timelord Nonpareil*~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't do it around Friday or Saturday, I usually go over my brother's house and spend time with him and the family. I also haven't mentioned this, but this league is invite only. This is for everybody who understands and knows how to play fantasy football, which is why I wanted to make these leagues successful without a few people who lack the knowledge of this fantasy sport. I figure this is the best time to start this league already, now that we're more than a month away from the NFL season. This league will be a 10-man league. The draft is on August 15th at 8:00 ET at ESPN.com. If you want to join this league, I'll send you the password via e-mail. You MUST know how to play fantasy football to join this league. Here's the link for the league: http://games.espn.go...3&seasonId=2012 Edited July 21, 2012 by Deeмo 1 14 NATIONAL TITLES AND COUNTING!
