Default TPF Fantasy Football?

There was mention of Survivor Pool... how about a fantasy league? CBS Sportsline has, by far, the best software, but it costs $149 to set up the league.

Just kicking the idea around. Anyone interested? The football season starts soon, so we'd have to get this thing up and running (money transfers, online draft, time to look at the waivers, etc).

I think the potential for sidebets, smack talk, and silly football banter would be huge. (TP: This could pump some more blood into the forum!)

Paying and Prizes:
If we have 10 players interested, and each player puts up $30, then we'll be able to pay for the league and have $150 in the prizepool. I don't think $30 is a lot, but if it is, we could go $20, and have $50 in the prizepool? Of course, if a lot of members are interested, we could have more than 10 teams.

Here's a link to CBS Sportsline:

^^ Sorry for the spam.

I hope you are able to get this running, but I dont' see it happening....

I, for one, love fantasy football, but I'm already in a league and don't really want to be in another. I'll do the weekly survivor pool, but I have to pass on this.

I'm going to pass also...
Too many pools equals not enough poker.
Not to mention Hockey is starting soon...

We could always set one up on Yahoo for free. You can customize the stats scorer and all.

Anywho, let me know and I'll be in for $20 even though I have no idea how to win in anything but hockey pools.

Speaking of which, is anyone wanting to play hockey?

I think Hockey is too complicated for the simple minded Americans...

Default Worlds Colliding, Jerry!

I'm already in 3 other FF leagues. Thanks though.





No, I don't multi-table very well either.
