No good for me sadly. Fantasy Football (not American football) would have gotten me very interested, even though I am already in 3.

I usually join a few leagues (a couple of Yahoo's and Scoresheet simulation league). If there was a fb.net free league I would join, but I don't think I should lay out another $80.

I've been a Red Sox fan since 1975 and it was a very good Fall.

i like dead pools. pick 15 famous people, if they die in the calender year you get (one hundred minus their age at time of death) points. easy to keep track, add up on new year's eve, settle the bet (usually made the year before, usually in alcohol form), pick new people for the next year. i only did it once, i got no points, i remember picking scott weiland, courtney love, strom thurman (i thought that would be an easy point or 7) and ronald reagan.


I'm what you call a repeat offender. I repeat, I will offend again!

If you guys are really gonna do this in Yahoo, someone should take initiative and create the League before all the good 'DRAFT' dates and times are taken. Just a heads up.

If you create it they will join.

Sucking in one league is enough for me, but if you need that 10th player I will join and you won't have to worry about me being a dead player. I play till the end of the season. Unlike some people who give up too soon.

As far as league type ours is a points league. These are our setting so far:

Hitting/fielding: R (1), H (1), 1B (1), 2B (2), 3B (3), HR (4), RBI (2), SB (1), CS (-1), BB (1), K (-1), TB (1), E (-1)

Pitching/fielding: IP (1), W (10), L (-10), CG (10), SHO (10), SV (5), OUT (1), H (-1), ER (-1), HR (-4), BB (-1), K (1), HLD (2), E (-1)

I'm in.
I like both head to head and rotisserie.


1. I am a fsh with no i's.
2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.
3. I am a man with 3 fingers...but that doesn't count my index finger nor my thumb.

I prefer head-to-head but either is fine. Also, I don't mind have an automated draft with draft lists if that's easier.

In Yahoo, if you pick "Live Draft", do you still have the option of using an automated list, if you want?
I've done that before, on an ESPN league though. Since it was a live draft, and I wasn't available, everyone else that wanted to draft live did so, but I was able to use a list.

2. You must be wearing Zubaz, 'cause you're daring to be different.

Anytime's fine with me.
I'll have to use a list either way, unless I find a better computer to use.

I really don't have a preference as to the format, whatever the commish (BF?) goes with is fine by me. I'm available almost any time for a draft...

Yeah either, would be fine. Just let me know, by e-mail. It'd be cool to be in a league w/some frank fans. Can just imagine some of the team names...

Excellent! This will give me a good reason to follow baseball this year. As a Brewers fan, usually by June it's over.... Make sure to do your homework this week :P

Yahoo is the best way to go. But they make it tricky on the sign up. They try to make you join their pay leagues, but just look around and join the free one.

Maybe the topic should be re-named "Fantasy Baseball Free Sign-up".
Just a thought...

Maybe the winner can get a fb.net title under their nic for a year. "Fantasy baseball guru". That should really draw in the participants.

It would be interesting to see how our Canadian and overseas friends would do in the league, knowing nothing about Major League Baseball.
