We have a little over a month before the NFL season starts. I also happen to love Fantasy Football, and would love to play in a league with any of you that also love it. I tried starting something up last year, but it was a little too late, so hopefully this will give us enough time.
If you're interested, respond in this thread and we'll get something going. I like to use ESPN personally, but if there are strong opinions to use a different provider, that works.
@Silvanus @Kaimanahi - I forget who else was interested last year! We'll need around 8-10 people, but can roll with 6 or 12.
(Of course, there's going to be some kind of wager, like 20 credits per person, with the top 3 people winning something).

"So you think a video game that has people going outside and getting excercise is silly because it is 'pokemon'? Sit down, grab a beer and tell me again about your fantasy football league."
Tuesday - set waiver claims, look at injuries.
Friday - The day team's announce final injury report for the week, you don't need to look at this day really but I always do.
Sunday morning - set your lineup. Some teams will have late scratches, so I always check my team right before the games start.
It isn't something that is time consuming at all, but you do you have to check it.
Once they are active and started battling, they can't be replaced until the week is over. During the battles, sometimes they can acquire injuries, like paralysis, burns, confusion.
On Tuesday, the next week has begun and you have the chance to replace any Pokemon you want out of the ones in the field, perhaps that pokemon sucked or perhaps it's injured. You decide what pokemon you want to add/replace in your lineup of 6 and add them to a list. On Wednesday morning at some point, there'll be a rotation of the choices of pokemon through all the players in the game and you may or may not get the pokemon you want. That was known as your Waiver claim, your first chance to pick up wild Pokemon.
Now, any time between Wednesday and Sunday morning, you can add and replace pokemon from the wild without having to adhere to a rotating waiver wire claim. On Friday morning, you will find out if your Pokemon healed from certain injuries and are able to battle on Sunday, and can add/replace pokemon if yours didn't heal in time.
Occasionally, Sunday morning, your Pokemon may not have actually recovered from their injuries or didn't have enough painkillers to go through this week's battle, and you will need to replace them before they get locked into Battle.
Little did she know we secretly plotted to force the next new person to post to be our 8th player
