Marlin Crawler Fantasy Football 2011

[Toymin8r]

It's that time of year again.   

[BigMike]

Oh.... this thread? Are there winners from this sort of thing? Winners who are probably entitled to some cool swag??

I'd ABSOLUTELY like to do another MCI FF!

But first, I'd like to see how many people want to stay with ESPN or migrate to a different FF service? What site do you guys play on in other leagues? I hear Yahoo FF is pretty good, and NFL.com has their FF also. I don't have any need to leave ESPN, I think it's nice, but I want to exercise our options first

Let me know! Thanks
Mike

Even though my team really sucked last year, I am in for playing again for sure.

Personally, I like the system that we used last year. My other league ( I won that one!!) uses the same thing and ESPN has a really cool app for my iPhone to where I can make moves, track players on Sunday, etc. right from my phone.

OHH NICE! I have a smart phone now so I'll get to try this for the first time! WOOT!

I'm so down for another season guys count me!

[IMMUDDY]

I am also ready for another season.

[Toymin8r]

I kind of liked the format from last year.  I don't see why any changes need to be made.   

[BigMike]

Ok great, I just wanted to make sure you guys were ok with ESPN. I don't have any other experience and have really enjoyed ESPN.

I'll get everything set with the MCFF2011 in a few days or so

I'm in again

[dntsdad]

Hey Mike

just wondering if we are on for this for sure and who is in?

[BigMike]

Sorry guys, I've just been super busy with other stuff. This weekend I will get everything ready to go and will report back

Last year we went with 10 teams. So let's see if we can get 10 people interested again!

count me in

[PadawanYota_Stovy]

Hey Big Mike , I was curious if you ever thought about using the NFL F site.I used it once last season with another group it had a pretty good lay out and what not.Yahoo is still a fun site to use.Just thought the NFL would be more better of a lay out and features.

[BigMike]

Sorry guys, I was busy working on other stuff this weekend. I'll post up a new 2011 thread soon

[BigMike]

Hey guys........................... I am sorry but I just don't have the time for this this year. Does someone want to take the reigns for this season?

[dntsdad]

I'd love to because I want to play, but I am also in no position to take it on and it would become a disaster because I couldn't focus the time on it. If someone wants to step up, I will play though.

[BigMike]

Ok, here is what I think is best. I am going to configure the draft for this weekend. I will not be in the country (yes, seriously), but my friend Clint (Team Jeep) will take over and lead the draft.

So I will just auto-configure my team and have the system auto-pick for me. So whatever I get, I get.

So I need names right now WHO IS IN FOR A DRAFT THIS WEEKEND, PLEASE POST UP RIGHT NOW!

[BigMike]

Here is who has posted up so far:

• dntsdad
• PadawanYota_Stovy
• 86rustbucket
• Steve_925
• Toymin8r
• IMMUDDY
• My friend Clint

What time is best for you guys this weekend?

[83yota]

i would be down this year

[dntsdad]

Sunday evening for me....................... or Monday evening since its Labor Day this weekend.

[BigMike]

Ok I am going to configure the draft to auto-start at 6pm 6:45pm PST Monday night, Sept 5th. Be there or have your draft order pre-picked and hope for the best!

Sorry I won't be around for a few weeks, hope everything goes well!!

Mike

[BigMike]

Holy Smokes, I can't select 6pm PST. The closest available time is 6:45pm PST. Sorry east coasters, you'll have to stay up until 9:45 for the draft.

So here are the official settings:

Seconds Per Pick:  60
Draft Order:  Randomized One Hour Prior to Draft Time

Can someone please tell me who is who so I can drop those who are not in this year? Thanks, and sorry I am just too busy to look everything up. I think it's somewhere in this thread. Thanks

[Steve_925]

web wheelers

[dntsdad]

I'm in and got the email from espn.

If its not too muchh hassle, change my name to Team IwannaSas. If its any amount of work, then forget it. Keep it Team Ragsdale.

Thanks Mike!! You da man !!!

[BigMike]

I looked at the site briefly and I don't remember how to change other teams names. You should be able to change your team name by going to http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/tools/teamsettings?teamId=9&leagueId=824374, but this might be a dead link, I am not sure. Give it a try!

[BigMike]

Ok, so we need to drop the two teams who have not replied to this thread (they don't want to play as bad as you guys do)

So we can drop to 8 teams which means more players to choose from.

The problem is I am leaving North America tonight and won't have internet access again until next Tuesday....
