I would potentially be interested in this if somebody would be willing to fill me in some more on details and how much of a time investment on average we're talking about!

Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

Like I said before, I'm very interested. I figure I devote quite a bit of time to my Madden franchise and this would be potentially more rewarding/more fun since I'd be playing with actual people.

Feel free to peruse this forum to see what it all entails. I'm hoping to avoid redoing all of the rosters, as that would be very time consuming. To stock all the teams, the draft is 'bout 55 rounds. Most teams are pretty much even, so if everyone agrees, we can all keep what we have to date. If not, we'll set up a brand new stocking draft. Other than the free agent and rookie drafts, there's not a whole lot for the owners to do, other than anything they'd like to do in the way of trades or other moves. It can be time consuming, especially @ the start, but it's also a lot of fun.

personally, the stocking draft is a blast.

Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

I'm definitely interested in this again. I was just looking at many of my players that I drafted in the rookie draft and FA draft and my team would have done pretty good this year.

That's just your ego talking whipping boy.

well, one of the young players that I had on my team was shot to death in january 2007. But still, overall it did very well.

Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

at this point I wouldnt be interested in keeping the same players, I maybe interested if there is a whole new stocking draft and all I have to do is draft and not help

Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

For those guys showing interest...thanks. That means a lot and I again apologize for what happened to the original league. After I got laid off I really didn't have time to keep it going. Now, I work two full time jobs and as much as I would love to bring the league back or even just be an owner there is no possible way for me to do it...and truly, I feel bad about that.

Great, now Rich gets credited for the comeback.

I still stand by bringing this whole thing back like we talked so if you're backing Rich's effort, I'm all in.

My young guys look good too. I'll miss having Peyton, McGahee, R. Brown, and Westbrook though.

Since so many will be new owners, a new stocking draft is all but certain.

Rich, I have two friends that helped me with my team when I came a new owner and really got into the game. They would definitely be interested if we need more guys.

Re: Re-Starting The BZFL

I had a few of good, young players on my team. But overall, it was a mess. I'm fine with a brand new stocking draft. Those are always fun to do.

QB Vince Young
RB Fred Taylor
WR Jerricho Cotchery
DE Will Smith
DT Shaun Rogers
DE Darryl Tapp (my rookie pick from 2006)
MLB Antonio Pierce
OLB Angelo Crowell
CB Darrent Williams
CB Marlin Jackson
S Deon Grant
P Andy Lee (Pro Bowl punter)

Damn you, Mikey! You made me wanna check out my roster and 6 out of 9 draft picks are starters already and I totally forgot I had KE on my roster. He was on IR from his rookie season.
