Cellar Fantasy Football 2014

if you're a returning team, just log in as you did last year, and set up your draft preferences.

If you want to play and are new to our league, the log in info is here. Let me know if you want in. I'll need to create slots for newbs. I've already deleted Eagle Green and Hammer and Tongs due to gross negligence last season. If blue or V want to play again this year, they can appeal that decision.

If you played last year, and know you don't want to this year, let me know.

DRAFT DATE IS AUG 23RD

should I let it pick our draft order, or set it up inverse to the rank from last season ala NFL rules?

Thanks.

I favor whatever makes me more likely to win.

Seriously, I don't care. Do what you think is best.

I'm leaning toward random, only because that's the way I've always done it.

Unrelated question. My wife wants to start up a fantasy league for our family. A small one. Four teams.

Can I join that league with the same NFL account and be in two leagues with two teams, or do I have to create another account? I'm having trouble logging in to that league with my email address.

I think you can be in multiple leagues with one NFL.com login.

and I dont think it's your email address. I'll pm what I see as your id.

Ok, are the rest of the teams returning? Check in, por favor...

Shaw?
Zippeh?
Cobble?
Ute?
Griff?

And then we need one more team to make 12.

I'm in. I want to use the default player rankings; is there anything else I need to do before the draft?

When I won, it was by huge margins, and when I lost, I usually still had a very good score and just got unlucky that my opponent scored a couple points higher. (My season was like a demonstration of the flaws inherent in the electoral college system!) I actually looked at it and if I just rearranged who I'd gone up against each week, I would have been in like the top three.

Anyway... all of this is to say that I'm putting effort into it again this year, and you fuckers are going down.

My memory of last season was that I did very poorly all season long, but when I went back in and looked at the final standings, I was towards the top. So yeah, the system doesn't always reward the best.
