Talkbears FFB League #1

Recommended Posts

Last year was the first year in a long time we did not have a free redraft league here for members to play. I miss the challenge. I would love to see it start up again.

 

I do not know much about the $$$ League. Hopefully, if there are openings, the Commish will give details for those wanting to join. Heck, if there are enough openings, I might even give in and give it a try if a free redraft league is not set up.

Another option is to expand to a 12-team league. We only had a 10-team league due to interest.

I am going to be in China from Aug 22 until Aug 29th and will not know if I will have internet connect allowing me to draft online. They censor stuff over there, so if we can avoid those days, Im in, if it works out for one of those days, I will have to pass.

 

I dont remember the amount but think it was 30$ to get in. i would prefer more like 50$ but dont remember it being that high.

BearFan2000 is interested and was the first to throw his name in for a team if available. If a 2nd opening is available I would like to be considered. Maybe we can get a 12 team lineup, much better than 10 IMO.

 

In addition, as I mentioned earlier, if there is interest in a "no fee" redraft league maybe we can bring back to life our league we has here in the past.

 

I have a ton of free time, bored to death, so I can easily manage to play two FF Leagues this year.

 

If anyone is interested in a very good office pool, a pick'em pool, I have been in one for quite awhile (I did real lousy last year but still enjoyed the challenge). It has very good payouts and the guy running it is a good chap (and a Bears Fan).

 

Check it out at 6 DAYS TO SUNDAY

 

Last year the payouts were: (A lot of different pools you can enter!)

 

Weekly Pool - First tiebreaker is total wins, second is the Monday night score

 

1st - $155

 

2nd - $30

 

Survivor - Tiebreaker is the most consecutive wins

 

1st - $735

 

2nd - $85

 

Loser Survivor – $460

 

Margin – $440

 

Lowman – $310

 

Team – $540 ($180 per teammate)

 

High 5 – $300

 

Bracket 32 – $320

 

Season

 

1st - $950

 

2nd - $500

 

3rd - $300

 

4th - $200

 

5th - $100

Expansion of ownership and buy-in is OK by me...

Considering we have got through the 1st preseason game and we have yet to hear anything about the league I'm guessing it's not continuing on. Usually by now we've already established the draft.time and half of us would have paid by now

If yall need to reorganize, I will join too to help it get started. However, it hasn't been long since it was posted, I wouldn't give up on it so fast. Maybe Jason or whoever runs it is busy.

We have plenty of time, If anyone can get ahold of Jason, we can have this up and running in a couple of days.

I don't believe jason ran it.

 

I think it was adam.

 

To refresh my memory I searched the forum for threads from last year for FFB.

 

DrunkBomber was indeed Commish for the Money League

 

LT2_3 was the Commish for the free redraft league.

 

The free league did not return last year so I am guessing if we want one we will need to start a new one. In fact I did a search of posts by LT2_3 and the last time I can see him posting in the forum was August 18, 2015.

 

We need to get things rolling ASAP.

OK, I have set up a league through Yahoo for the FFB #2 League, Free Redraft.

 

The settings & draft time can always be edited, needed a starting point to see if there was enough interest.

 

See the thread I started for more details. Thanks

I'm up for joining the free redraft league I'll post in the other thread on that topic. You can have dibs on the money league Pix. We are in the middle of buying stuff for a home remodel and I'm pretty much signing my checks away to Menard's lol. I think the wife would kill me if I joined a money league right now. Free I can afford.

Tell the wife this is more important lol. But then again this coming from someone who's divorced. Maybe not the best person to get advice from. I really shouldn't do any money leagues either as we are in the middle of planning our wedding and honeymoon. I'll give it another week if we still haven't heard anything by then I'm out

It is about that time to set a draft date and get the pay details squared away for this season.

 

Jason?

 

Also, any GM's not participating this year? Can we get a roll call?

 

I'm in.

 

No thanks gents. I don't do fantasy much. I have been in one long-standing league for over 20 years, but that's about it.

Congrats on the engagement, I sure don't miss the wedding/honeymoon planning. We did most of the organizing, and decorating ourselves with the help of a few family and friends. I was up pretty much all night prior to the day of finishing up the slide show for the reception. By the time the day came we were exhausted but it made the wedding itself seem so easy and stress free.
