PM YOUR EMAIL IF YOU WANT IN! (NFL.COM)

Alright guys, I've created a league on NFL.com, I've only used ESPN in the past, but this will be a private league so your names won't be made public, so if you already have a profile on NFL.com with you real name, it's all good. But if you don't have an NFL.com account yet, I would suggest using a fake name just for the hell of it. I'm "TheDon" on there as well.

The league's name is: Dopey'sFanClub
Send me a PM for the password. I'm going to send the password those who have requested to be in the league so far (Me, Rubchasertx, Trey, BigTex, Easy-E, and Satin) I'm looking to get Daddio and Willy as well, that would make it 8 teams.

if we can get enough members, we can make it 10 or 12 teams. And there are a lot of members here I haven't yet mentioned (Dickem Down, JaD, SoulMaine, etc.) We could probably get to 12 if we wanted...

The rules are standard, except we are going to end on week 16 instead of week 17 (Because players get benched so it's always a mess). Playoffs will be 2 week match-ups during weeks 13-14 and then 15-16. We will also use the "No drop list" which are players you can't drop based on the NFL Fantasy. (Basically, if you have guys like Megatron and Foster, and if they are not injured, you cannot drop them). We will do a live draft (The date I picked was just to create the league, I will change it when the time comes and we decide on a date). But it's best to do it a week before the season starts so we know who's playing and who's not.

We can actually have up to a 20 team league... I think we should just do 2 groups of 10 if it reaches that point ..Or Fuck it, we could do 20, even though that sounds batshit, it would probably be really entertaining.

Also, there will be 2 divisions, tie-breakers will be decided by "Points for." And the names I came up for the divisions are the names of famous Combat sports fighters, I want the division names to always be combat fighters. So that means Boxers, MMA Fighters, or Pro Wrestlers. I picked Don Frye and Mike Tyson for the first two names. I think the winner each year gets to pick the following years names'. What do you guys think of that idea? If you have a better suggestion for division names feel free to post.

Also, I don't know if we are doing this for cash or just fun/bragging rights right now. But lets worry about this part later

SoulMan, SofaKing, and gnadfly.

We'll need to wait on the status of Willy and a couple other members before anything can happen. We're not sure how many people are in the league right now. We anticipated a lot of members wanting to join, so we're planning on having a second league as well, so everyone will get to join in!

Trey, We've decided to all chip in about 20-25$ to the winner, and they would be able to use it for a date. We do not have specifics yet though.
Add me if you have room, please...Gotta show these fools up.

Don, no problem bro, I'm just waiting to hear from a couple guys on vacation. If they accept (like I think they will) we're full with this league and can start another. A max of 10 was decided for this one. We can have as many leagues as we need. Same rules or different. It's all good. This is gonna be good...


Chris, I just texted you bro. Just like in the clubs....always a bit too late to play homie...lol
You know I don't get out much, Satin....You about handed me those 2 girls, but I haven't even had time to follow up. I do have time to sit in front of a computer for some FF, though!
Daddio is in. Team name is Cushing Pushing!!! Almost named my team SnatchCatchers but will let Satin use that name if he likes. This should be a blast.

I like the idea of a football loving provider donating her services to the champ!! Talk about a competitive league!!! Come on Willy where you at??

The name of our league is pure genious. I know who the Big Texans will take with their first round pick!!!!! In fact we should make it manditory he chooses Dopey with the pick no matter if its the #1 pick or not!!! Just Sayin!!

Truthfully, if I were selecting today and had the #1 pick in the draft. I would choose Foster, not Schaub. That should leave you open to selecting the best qb on the Texans roster with your first pick! My question, would you choose Schaub or Yates?

I will join both leagues when set up. Also I want to know if you can Chang my division to mike Tyson I don't know who the other guy is lol.

Cam newton should go pretty high he was scoring mad points last year. I did good with Tebow in one league I was in too, he was my back up to Tom Brady so he didn't get much play.

20 bucks sounds fair how will we all meet up? Pay pal may be good. Unless we do get one special lady that wants to be the prize. Would probably be one of the most active leagues on NFL.com if that was to go down.
