In addition to what Obdi said, remember, it's a kicker's season, can't have enough of them

All kidding aside: now we wait until the NFL proper starts (4th of september iirc). We then play 14 weeks of head-to-head games (bit like the fantasy EPL cup-season): the goal is not as many points as you can, but as many wins as you can. After that, head-to-head play-offs. In the meantime, it's good to google your guys, see if they're fit and on form, what their predictions are, how their match-ups are analyzed by 'experts' so you know which out of your RB/WRs to put into the team as RB/WR/Flex per week (not that different from scouting match-ups for your lower-end table defenders in fantasy EPL), then just before the season starts, set your line-up for your very first match.

Also, never display public ignorance
if you can't find something on the Yahoo! Fantasy football page (their help section is pretty good, only they don't advise on strategies), ask the commissioner (Slow Ben), preferably by PM. He's the only one who is more or less obliged to give mostly impartial advice when it comes to game rules

Hello Taco.

I will propose a trade after SB gets our stuff put in on the site. Accept it.

Ha ha you want someone from me?

I'll trade your Akers for my Hennery and some awesome advice .

Cheers T dawg!

I'm not sure the commish is required to give impartial anything, but I'm pretty sure if you have any questions you can post on the forums. No one is going to take advantage of you, and if they tried other people would speak up.

Probably not, but if I'd rule/scoring questions, my sense for hierarchy says to start at the top by the person who set them
anyhow, I guess we all know nothing lopsided will happen, but I guess no-one would really mind if their own opponent forgot that their starter QB had his by-week upcoming, it is the other 10 that will groan .

As a newb, irony and advice can be hard to distinguish from each other, at times, as is what good advice is and where to get it, too (player projections in yards and ADP varying wildly, et cetera). I know that bugged me for much of the middle and late rounds of draft, for example, as we use a slightly different from standard Yahoo! score format, too.

Well, I was gonna try and get the teams entered today. But the misses took our computer to work and my brothers crashed. Tomorrow were flyin back to Nawlins, so if I get time I'll do it on Sunday, but most likely it'll be Monday afternoon. Cause then I can do it at work. From there you can add/drop players and get your team ready to go.
As far as trades go, it'll take 2 days to go through, at which time each player can vote to approve or veto the trade. I doubt we'll have to veto any Tom Brady for Cleveland D trades in this league, but you never know.

[Slow Ben]

Alright friends, the players are on your teams and ready to go.

And to be honest, I'll be really surprised if i did it perfectly and didnt screw up at least one person. so if somethings f'ed up, dont worry, we'll fix it.


Good luck all!!!

[Slow Ben]

Oh, and the waiver wires first order is completely randomized by yahoo.

You take that back right now. I'll have you know she is the scum of the earth, and I would thank you to remember that, sir.

[Vengeance]

Yo mama is so hairy that she looks like Bigfoot in a tank top.

[Brujah]

Yo mama got a wooden leg...................wit' a kick stand.
