Fantasy Football- added poll

[shemarie82]

I feel like it was mentioned somewhere 'round here a bit ago. Is there any interest in doing a fantasy football league?

[cheshie6]

yes!

[shadesofgold]

I am already committed to another league and don't think I want to open the floodgates with two this year. Enjoy though! My league uses the ESPN platform and it is really user-friendly, even for total beginners.

[mrsjene]

If I weren't already involved in another league...

[wannabmama]

I'm in another league (maybe 2) but I might be up for another one. Yes, I'm crazy.

YASSSSS

[LadyNymeria]

I'd be in. It would be league #4 for me this year (already in 2 live for $$ plus M16 was nice enough to let me stay in their league), but I'm in!

[longhornwino0907]

If I wasn't already in 5 leagues, then yes! But I think 5 might be my limit!

[rablissful]

I'm in if it isn't a paid league.

My SO says that Yahoo is his favorite but ESPN is more user friendly.

[mcktymck]

I'm interested! DH is OBSESSED with football and always does at least 2, so it would be fun to have one of my own to participate in. Even though I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing

[shemarie82]

I am fine with pick em or teams, whatever the group prefers! I am not picky since I do both as well!

With the yahoo one, you just pick the winning teams.  I can't imagine it being easier than that.

He's in 5? Leagues. I'm just relaying what he said. I've never done fantasy football.

I prefer Yahoo, but have also done ESPN. Again, I don't need it to be one or the other, I'm all about the group. Until I beat you all!

I don't want to brag or anything, but DH is basically a walking sports/football encyclopedia, and I beat him last year in a pick em soooo......

[wannabmama]

Pickem might be easier for folks who aren't devoted to full fantasy participation. That said, I do 'em all and love 'em (and prefer yahoo but only bc I'm more familiar with it...and it's all about me).

[titania]

I'm in! I'm only in one, so I definitely have room for another!

[cheshie6]

I second Yahoo, but I can do either! My league limit is 3 and I'm only in 1 thus far! dabearsfanswife, yay for another Bears fan! Though I'm a Bears fan living in Patriots country. I'm also a Yankees fan living in Red Sox country!?! Go figure.

You can take all the Bears players! DNW!

[PepperPottsJ]

I am in!!

[rablissful]

Yahoo pick em is not a fantasy football league. You just pick who you think is going to win each game every week.

If that's what people want to do that's fine, just wanted people to know that it's not actually fantasy football.

[icaughtfire]

Just tell me when & where to sign up.

HOOOOOORAY FOR FOOTBALL SEASON/go steelers.

[rooskie]

I would be down. I'm already in 2 ESPN leagues.
Go Colts!

[ghostmonkey]

Sure, I can suck at two of these this year.

[mill23]

Do I have to know even the slightest thing about football to participate? If not, I'm in!

No, yahoo gives you some pointers about who good players are. Then you just need to adjust your team weekly for injuries/bye weeks.

[shemarie82]

Looks like ESPN wins. Turns out it is blocked on my work network, is someone willing to get it set up for us?

This league and M16 are the first times I'll be using ESPN so if there's someone else already familiar with ESPN, that would be best. If not, I can try - I know I can get on the website.

ETA: Nvm - I see PepperPottsJ was already on top of things!
