Football season is right around the corner and there is nothing better than some good ol newschoolers fantasy football. TheBearJew is stepping down from commissioner and I will be taking over for the season. The league will be a $25 dollar buy in, same rules as last year. 12 man league, snake draft, half point (0.5) PPR. For payment, we take PayPal, Venmo or Cash App.

Here is the list of participants from last year who have priority to return for this upcoming season. If there is an opening we will select from the waitlist to fill those vacancies. So if you are trying to get in on the fun make sure you post in the thread and remember it's first come first serve.

1. Hugo
2. Eheath
3. Cornholio
4. TheBearJew
5. Casey
6. SnoBunny
7. JayRich
8. ToddSteez
9. BenWhit
10. Charlie_Kelly
11. Beefiestexpert
12. Saga

I will send everyone a pm that will include all the information you need including the details for the league and how to send your payment.

If you have committed to play let me know some dates/times for the draft and any changes or ideas you have for the league.

BenWhiti really hope josh gordon pans out. for as much trouble as he has had, he's really only ever hurt himself, which is the "best" thing you can say of a person like him. i want him to have some kind of redemption because he is a uniquely talented athlete (and he's on my team!).

i have a little James White in my shorts. i loved that draft pick and thought he was going to be legit from the start. he's the kind of player that always falls forward for an extra yard or two. he goes down at first contact a bit too often, but is lights out in space. he and sony should be very complimentary of each other. he's definitely a td or bust fantasy player, though.


I think he will have potential to go off. With Edelman back, the offense has enough threats to keep defenses busy. He is a beast when he applies himself.

The dude is the worst. I had him last season when his rubber band ankles were snapping every game. Made a mistake picking him up his year in my other league.

I have 3 startable RBs now in lindsay, freeman(should be back this week) and yeldon until fournette returns. 3 weeks ago, I might have accepted your trade but not now, especially with your team so strong

It really is a bummer. I don't follow much college football but I remember seeing a couple of his LSU games and he was unreal. I've had hopes for him but the injuries...he's worse than Kelce.

I'm in favor of pushing the trade through before gametime, I'd want the same thing done if it was my trade.

I'd say there are way more over-performing players this year vs previous year. The rate of scoring in the NFL is the most they've ever seen, its been great for fantasy.

There are always busts every year, you might just have picked more than one? I've got one league were im now 0-5 with a pretty decent team, but I can't get a break and players like David Johnson, Keenan Allen and Jordan Howard have been a let down, not necessarily busts yet but if I picked Kamara instead of DJ, I might be like 4-1...

I checked at half saw you were close and figured it was over.

Just looked again, I hope he fumbles. Fuck this is so close.

I love being in third place and having over 100 points more than first and second.

Also, fuck man, I’m sorry Cornholio. Fwiw I thought both our RBs from that trade blew their knees, Kerryons is an ankle I guess though

i'll dangle Golden Tate out there for Gronk, but he's averaging 16 to Gronk's 9, so i'm going to want another player (preferably, a RB).

Hmmm not quite what I'm looking for. But not bad. Still considering.

It's a real bitch. Especially in this league where so few teams make the playoff. Maybe you'll run the table.

With the falcons being 1-4 and facing a week secondary, I think Sarkisian will have the team throwing a lot. It's hard to say when both teams use a committee system in the backfield.

We can't set a custom color (which would easy for a dev but that's a waste of their time) we only have access to blue, pink, green, purple, orange and red.
