    Re: Fantasy Football 2010

    My vote goes for this option.

    In my other league we break the teams into two divisions (odd and even numbers of draft order) and then have a division winner and two wild cards from each division for playoffs, with the DW getting the bye into the semis, which eventually leads to a crowning of an overall winner. This means the regular season ends at week 13 and the "Super Bowl" is played in week 16. This keeps the league competitive and interesting throughout the season, compared to just an overall winner and runner up in points which usually loses it's luster once one teams surmounts a huge lead. Is there any interest in using this format?

    No opinion on divisions vs non divisions, but I'm never a fan of having weeks 16 or 17 count, too many star QBs and RBs getting rested.

    I'd be interested in either $50 or free. If someone drops out of the money-league or we get enough to start a second one, let me know.

    Prefer the $500 for the winner, $100 second place.

    This, I don't know how many times I've had good picks (Randy Moss in '07 season) only to have them sit for the championship game.

    I slept on this. If there's enough interest for a second league, I'll set it up. 10-12 people required. $25-$50.

    Off the conversation, but the right thread...

    Anyone know of a good, solid, free, and basic FF guide for this season? I've never done fantasy football before, but I've done plenty of fantasy sports (hockey and baseball mostly). I need a guide that will just get me through the draft well essentially.

    Looks like there is more than enough for the one $50 league, but if a second one starts up count me in.

    I'm in for at least $50, it's not any fun if it's free.

    I would also prefer to use CBS sportsline if has not already been voted on. I also would like to see receptions count as something so we don't get a totally RB dominated league.

    Hey Chater,

    It's me against you in the first week of the free league you set up. I know this could be sent as a private message, but I want this made public. I'm going to destroy you. Your mother is going to weep when she sees how my players are running up the score and yours are all shitty and stuff.

    It's the Beef Curtain Defense all the way baby!
