Racketboy Fantasy Football League

Enderfall, I'm still in and willing to help set up the league. If we only have five people one will not make the playoffs and we should all have some high scoring teams.

I guess you can count me in!

Count me in

I'll still run a pick'em league. Fantasy is too much work for me right now.

And.....

"The fan, Jim Devlin, was a friend of a guest of the team that had been granted sideline access.

Eagles fan Jim Devlin, of King of Prussia, was directed to remove the Donovan McNabb Redskins jersey that he was wearing on the Eagles sideline at training camp this morning by security.

Devlin said that security told him that coach Andy Reid wanted the jersey removed. A team spokesman said he was unaware whether the directive came from Reid.

Devlin was on the sideline, not in the stands, on a guest pass, provided by friend Frank Deutchki, of Schwenksville, who is with him. A team spokesman said guests with sideline passes are supposed to be screened at the gate.

Devlin was surprised but also really angry. He was curious what other fans’ reaction would be so he also wore the jersey to Sunday’s Phillies-Mets game.

Deutchki now has the jersey in a bag, with Devlin wearing a red T-shirt.

Two things on this.

1) Like it or not, if you’re the guest of an NFL team with special access to the field, there’s a certain modicum of respect that goes with that privilege. Wearing the jersey of another NFL team while in that situation is inappropriate, regardless of what name is on the back.

2) Devlin wearing the same McNabb Redskins uni to a Phillies games as, “he was curious what other fans’ reaction would be,“ tells anyone with a functioning frontal lobe that Devlin is only wearing the jersey to bring attention to himself.

Even if Reid wasn’t the person who initiated the directive that the jersey be removed, the Eagles weren’t being unreasonable in their request."


I would only have removed the jersey if they would replace it with an eagles one. Than I would have pissed on it.

I'm interested, someone will have to show me the ropes though as i've never played fantasy football before. Always wanted to though.

I'm assuming you have some understanding of who's who in the NFL right? If so, it's pretty easy and I'm sure everyone here would be willing to help you out.

Looks like we are up to 8. Two more and we've got ourselves a league.

I'll jump in. It's been awhile since I've done fantasy football and I enjoy competition. What site are y'all using? I really prefer ESPN's set up and they do have the autopick, but I don't mind too much.

I think we've had interest in using Yahoo!.

We now have 9 players... just need one more.

Yahoo also auto drafts for people who don't want to do the draft live. You can pre-rank if you'd like or use their auto-ranks.

This would be a great time for someone with no experience in FF to jump in. You'd be surprised how many n00bs win these damn things.
