wineplz asks Aug 13, 2008 12:22PM Who would be seriously interested in joining a *For-Fun* Fantasy Football League of Plurk/Twitter folks?
rockinprgirl Aug 13, 2008 04:26PM I would, cause I have no idea what the hell im doing to be competitive.
planetofjanet says Aug 13, 2008 04:55PM i would love to, but i'm a little scared. i really dont need another time suck
rockinprgirl Aug 13, 2008 04:58PM its actually pretty easy ... i abandoned my previous times practically the whole week. spent maybe 15 minutes max and still finished
BurghBaby Aug 13, 2008 05:18PM janetofplanet, the only thing that a bit of a time suck is drafting. Other than that, you can get by not even touching it
BurghBaby Aug 13, 2008 05:20PM Ideally you would check for injuries/matchups and change your team around a little, but it's not totally necessary
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 05:23PM that would probably be me. Or I'd hear about an injury two weeks after the fact...LOL...just looking for some fun in-between Peyton/Eli ads
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 05:47PM depending on who's interested will determine if there will be a prize at the end
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 05:49PM seems certain states don't like the FFB w/prize money at the end: NJ, WA, AZ, MD, TN, IA, LA, VT, MT and ND.
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 05:52PM I was thinking that a nominal amount in for the grand prize, but no charges for trades, etc.
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 05:50PM but if we have participants from teh banned states, then it will definitely be all free (which is still fun)
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 05:54PM considering an evening draft...maybe 9pm-ish ET, but know that is still during dinner for west-coasters...ideas?
BurghBaby is Aug 13, 2008 08:11PM intrigued by this whole money isn't legal thing. I've always had to buy in to be in a league, even if it was only $5.
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 08:40PM BurghBaby it's only in those states, per ESPN's FFB site (which I seem to prefer over Yahoo).
wineplz Aug 13, 2008 08:39PM maybe because the money gets funnedled into ESPN and then awareded out through them?
BurghBaby Aug 13, 2008 08:43PM screw ESPN, there are ways to collect money without them. Wait? Did I say that out loud?
Anglophileff Aug 13, 2008 11:28PM I'm with BurghBaby We have a winner winner take all FFB. Everybody mails $20 to the winner.
wineplz says Aug 14, 2008 12:43AM if you first two gals have blogs, forward the links to me and I'll add them to my site...plantofjanet I have yours...
wineplz says Aug 14, 2008 12:52AM well, have to work with folks in 3 diff time zones (so far) and they work...was originally thinking a Fri at 9:30pm
wineplz says Aug 14, 2008 12:55AM but I saw your comment regarding length of time to do the draft and am wondering if a Sat. a.m. might work better.
