OK, I have set up a $50 pay fantasy football league on FanBall.com.

Anyone who wishes to join can PayPal $50 to me at sales@empirestatemusic.com . You may also PM me if you need a mailing address for a money order or check.

Prizes are as follows based on 12-team league*:
$300 Grand Prize
$100 Runner-up
$10 weekly high score prize in regular season
(Fanball charges $50 for commissioner service...)

LIVE SCORING

LIVE ONLINE DRAFT We'll aim for Monday, Sept. 1 at 8pm eastern.

WEEKLY LEAGUE RECAP

The following minimum starters are allowed per position:
Quarterback 1
Running Back 1
Wide Receiver 2
Tight End 1
Place Kicker 1
Team Defense 1

The following maximum starters are allowed per position:
Quarterback 1
Running Back 2
Wide Receiver 3
Tight End 1
Place Kicker 1
Team Defense 1

The following maximum overall (starters + backups) are allowed on a team per position:
Quarterback 4
Running Back 6
Wide Receiver 7
Tight End 3
Place Kicker 2
Team Defense 2

Total number of starters: 8
Total number of backups: 8

Scoring includes:
6pts for all TDs
1pts per 10 yards rushing and receiving
1pt per 25 yards passing
pretty standard scoring

4 playoff teams - 3 division winners and 1 wild card
14 regular season weeks
2 playoff weeks with super bowl in week 16.

As soon as money is received, I will send you an invite to the league.

(* Prizes are estimated based on 12-team full occupancy - less paypal fees - should be pretty close w/12 teams.)

Fanball looks awesome! LIVE SCORING, Draft room, In-depth stats, waiver system, our own home page etc. It reminds me a lot of sportsline.com's paid commissioner leagues. YOU HAVE FULL CONTROL OF YOUR TEAM!

Any other questions, let me know!

Is the superbowl winner the league champ or the player with the most fantasy points? Just curious because I am in leagues that go both ways

lordofgun
08-02-2003, 06:05 PM
Basically, you can start

1 QB
1 RB
2 WR
1 RB/WR
1 TE
1 K
1 D

Make sense?

It's a head-to head league. Super bowl winner is the champ. Super Bowl loser is the runner-up.

Sure, Wys joins here but he can't join my Winner's league because he's "too busy". I see what's going on.

j/k. I know you can't play in every league. I had to drop out of another league to make room myself. Plus you can make money here. Or at least you could have made money before I joined.

Heh, I've won most of the Fantasy Leagues I've been in. Except last year.....Fiedler goes from being the #4 best points QB to being injured and screwing my team over, and of course having Tim Couch as your "Secure backup" was a mistake.

Watch out. ;)

I like a very late draft date. I've had more than my fair share of preseason injuries to starting players.

The BillsZone Big Money League draft will take place at our league on fanball.com in the DRAFT ROOM on Tues, 9/2 at 7pm eastern!!!

It's exteremely important that everyone is at the draft. Try to get there 15 minutes early and go to the DRAFT ROOM!

It's important for you to realize that if you are not at the draft, there are a few options:

1. Provide a trusted friend with your username and password and have them draft for you. I'd recommend you provide them with a list and draft strategy so they know who you prefer.

2. Provide ME with your draft strategy and list your top 160 players and I can pick for you. Make sure you let me know if you want to go straight from the list you provide no matter position, draft starters first, best 3 RBs first, etc. Provide me with a strategy for each round if possible. (If you do not show up at the draft and fail to provide me with a list, I will pick for you from ESPN's cheat sheet. I will pick their highest rated player and fill out your starters before your backups.

I do NOT recommend simply adding players to the draft room queue in the order you prefer unless you want the best player available regardless of position.

PLEASE let me know if you will not be at the draft or if you are having a friend draft for you.

Yeah I'm interested in talking a trade. How does that work when you trade picks like that? Is is a straight up swap of spots or is there some concession for the top spot? Believe it or not with all the leagues I've played in I've never swapped a draft pick. At least on purpose.

lordofgun
08-19-2003, 08:28 AM
As far as what you MAY do:

You can trade individual picks OR you can switch your entire draft.

The only requirement is that an even number of picks must change hands.

Draft pick trades are subject to the same 48-hour review as player trades.

you can trade picks in two ways.

1. trade the entire draft order.. basically, some guys like picking in the middle, some guys like picking out front.. kind of just depends on your draft style.

2. trade actual picks. basically, you and me would swap first round picks. the rest of the draft would stay the same. each draft pick has a certain value. you can use this site to determine what that value is.

http://footballguys.com/pickvalue.htm

you can plug in the pick number either way you want (ie... you can put pick 20 or pick 2.8 - round 2 pick 8.)

i would be more interested in trading draft position as a whole, but if you would like to just trade 1st round picks, i am fine with that too. just play around with the pick calculator and let me know what you are comfortable with.

the dude
08-27-2003, 12:06 PM
If you want to switch positions for the entire draft, I'll bite ... this may allow me to be a few minutes late getting to the draft - since I have to leave work early out here on the left coast ... plus I have another BFZ draft at exactly the same time - I just hope I don't confuse myself as I'm switching windows. The things we do for FF :type:

Tatonka
