Its actually kinda early, but Yahoo is already starting leagues so I decided to throw this out here now. We have until Sept 8th to start, but I aint going to wait that long. I would like anyone who wants to join to join up only if you mean to stay in the league the entire season. If you start with us and slack off I will have the computer take over your team. I will only do this only if your absent for more than 2 weeks.
http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/49272 or
http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/alfa
Pass: alfa
There is the url. Goto it and sign up. You must have a Yahoo ID which is easy to get. Then when looking for custom league put in the league ID which is 49272. Look things over from there. If folks actually want to try Defensive positions this year we could try that. If there are other things folks want we can try and add or take whats there away. All things will be done by a vote before we do our draft. Make sure you pre rank your players. It will once again be an Auto Draft. I want to do a Live draft, but I currently do not have the time to make sure I can sit down and get a draft done on a specific day. So, we will do the Auto again this year.
I would like to get a max of 12 teams. If we get more folks to join thats awesome and I will expand the league, but not till we fill up the 12 team slots we have.
So, go sign up and pre rank your players and lets see who the best Fantasy player in ALFA is this year!
Good luck!

we can do a live draft called a "slow" draft
12 hours per pick, if your 12 hours runs out, you get autopicked
there is a website called myfantasyleague.com where you can set up a draft for free and do the draft, you only have to pay for it if you use it to keep your scoring for the year
so we could use their draft software to do the slow draft
and then we could transfer the teams to yahoo since it is free
i can set it up if you want
nothing worse than an autodraft where it's 99% luck over who you get unless you have dozens of hours setting up a draft list
doing a slow live draft takes just a five or ten minute study session each time it's your pick
how about it?

I personally cant do it, Coach. I am so busy with work and my daughters games that I honestly cant do a Live draft or even a slow draft. I might not get on a computer(internet anyway) for days with the workload Im up against now at work. June is the beginning of the car industries work year and we are full deep into production of new models and such. Busy as fuck

totally on this. and I'd have to agree with Dan on the draft. You guys can all do whatever live pick you want, but with my schedule it'll likely be autopick for me anyway, with possibly an exception for the few that I manage to hop on and pick, so I could care less which way we go.
This year i'm gonna try and get higher than 8th

Still looking for folks to join. We still have quite a bit of time, but I expected to see more folks involved by now. Sign up guys! We have been doing this for about 4 yrs or so now. Lets keep the ALFA league rolling.

I am totally up for this!!

Please count me in. I'm pissed at myself that I hadn't known that this has been going on for the past few years.

As for the drafting whatever works for me.

Cool man. Sign up and once we get enough we will draft right before the season starts. Im a little disappointed in the fact we dont already have a lot of folks joining up. I know its early, but we had a lot more interest in previous years for the league. If we dont get some folks signing up by middle of August Ill probably scrap the league and join another.

I'm in... if only to kick Dan's arse
First game is Sept 6th so don't start the autodraft until a couple weeks before that... and after some fair warning so folks can rank the players if they want.

Cool! thanks Kate! Yeah, I wont set the draft until right before the season starts and will post here or send emails out so everyone will know. We need more folks to join, btw. If you know folks interested please get them into the league. We currently have 4 and I envisioned at least 10.

I am the reigning champ and I could simply retire undefeated, but I won't go out like that. I'll sign up here shortly.
