- - - Updated - - -

my vote is a none weekend evening sometime around 7 or a touch after that, let guys get home from work eat some grub crack a beer and sit down behind a computer and worry more so on making fun of people for bad picks then actually worrying about your own picks! haha!

We're still sitting at 9 teams as Flinger has yet to sign up. If it stays the same by the end of the day, I'll open it up for someone else. Once we hit an even number, I can get draft order set and redo the time and date. I can't get a look at last years bracket to set the order so either let me know what place you took, where to find the bracket, or I'll keep it at random.

Should be NDA 1. I think I've been more than fair, sending three reminders to flinger. First person to pm me their email will get an invite into the league.

- - - Updated - - -

Pm received. Waiting on the invite confirmation. Then I'll set a date and time. What days of the week don't work? Fridays, I'd rather not sit in front of a computer, same goes with the weekend. I'd like to get this taken care of this week or early next week. 7-8 p.m. is fine with me.

Never quite understood you fantasy football guys. Reality football is frustrating enough. Why would a guy want to double down on the frustration factor by creating a fantasy realm in which to be even MORE frustrated?? Same as golfers. NEVER........EVER see a HAPPY golfer after a day on the course except the guy that got a hole in one. Them guys are ALWAYS pissed off when they get done playing golf. Paying greens fees, buying clubs, loud shorts and pants, a bag, and all the accouterments to get frustrated and mad. No wonder the clubhouse ALWAYS has a bar in it. Golfers have to get tight just to go back home and be normal again. Doesn't make any sense to me, but have at it boys!!!!

In some distant reality, we think we'd be some sort of super duper gm. On top of that, I pay attention to games more. That, and competition is always fun. I have to run a pheasants forever golf tournament for my dad this weekend as he will be at the game and fish thing in mcclean bottoms. Going to be a tough day running that beer cart instead of playing "whack, f**k."

If any of you are interested:

Pheasants forever golf scramble at Square Butte Creek Golf Club located southeast of Center, ND. 18 holes, bring your own 4 man team, scramble. I can't remember the entry fee but if you give the club house a call ((701) 794-3623), they'll be able to give you the particulars. Registration by 11 a.m. this Saturday.

my vote is next week, we will be seeing a lot of starters playing the first half of their games this weekend and i for one dont want to draft until after the starters have played their week 3 week 4 most of them wont play anyway so its doesnt matter as much but i do think we should at least wait until after week 3 of preseason

I used to get into that fantasy football crap when there were decent players to pick from..now a days....you only got like 1-2 players that are good in the WHOLE league. That, and the fact that the administrators of these fantasy leagues are poor sports, this is a true story that happened to me. I was always near the top in the standings, made it to the playoffs, made it all the way up into the championship game against the administator-----he's goes and changes and acquires other players for his roster, while I sit there not being able to do a damn thing on my roster, called him out on it, he just turned a blind eye. Thats why they are no fun anymore cuz the administrator can do shit in the league behind your back and not a damn thing you can do. Its a trust factor sort of thing.

I don't mess with anything unless its voted on and agreed upon. I've been in leagues where no one was paid at the end of the year. That's the main reason I like to put them together. I know I can trust myself.
