I'll take a look at if I can expand the league to 12 to get Seventhorn and Cephas, without screwing up the draft or the playing schedule. I remember that a change in league size after it was set last year really borked everything quite badly, and I want to make sure that doesn't happen here.

In the meantime, OverCharged is looking to set up a second league with a small cash buy-in and prize. Check it out here: http://www.thevilluns.org/forums/viewto ... =7&t=24897

I've never been into fantasy football, but I've been shanghaied into the "Beer League" that a few of my friends play. Suggestions? I'm primarily doing it for a designated Man Cave night, but I don't want to lose outright.

dont draft down team lines

A bad team doesnt mean a bad fantasy player

DONT forget about factoring in BYE weeks

Yeah, the TE's have been vanishing rapidly - gonna be pretty fun filling that slot. Gives the opportunity, perhaps, for a surprise star to arise, not just in that position, but for a short yardage/red zone WR or RB. Fun to consider.

@Soup - Like Keyes said, don't draft team lines. A team can be bad and have good players, or a team can be full of great players who get only moderate fantasy stats because there are so many other options on their team. Pay attention to players' match-ups when putting folks in each week, and make sure you never have an empty spot on your roster.

this thing has now ruined my friday night! I should have looked a calendar to see that Tech plays and now I will have to be at my house rather than out watching the game. So I will be drinking. I hope you guys are happy about that. Also keyes thanks for telling everyone my plan for drafting my team

We can all fail together! At least this way the failure is ours, and not just random chance :-P

Well, I ended up being super busy and couldn't make the draft. My auto-generated team is... interesting to say the least :D
