Love that music so fucking much.

I'd be keen on Fantasy.
Never done NFL before

Neither have I...I don't think many on here have. I figured it would be a learning experience for all of us :lol:

Def up for a FFT Fantasy NFL League. If there's enough interest I can set up too.
Some interesting moves around the last couple of days:
Chad Ochocinco and Albert Haynesworth to the Patriots
Donovan McNabb to the Vikings
Kevin Kolb to the Cardinals
Matt Hasselbeck to the Titans
Reggie Bush to the Dolphins

I'm surprised by the Ochocinco and Bush moves.

Packers have re-signed Mason Crosby and allowed Darryn Colledge to join the cardinals (presumably because they've got Sherrod as his replacement).

I'm trying to set up the fantasy league but I still haven't received the confirmation email to my account.

MCNABB. He'll be good for the Vikings
Very surprised about the Bush move like Afro mentioned.
Have Seahawks recruited another QB? Hasselbeck has been there for yonks

Vikings will take anyone with a half decent arm, which is odd given they drafted two QB's.

Ok, so the league name is FFT Australia. The password is kevinairs (one word).

the url is fftaus.league.fantasy.nfl.com

You have to set up a maximum number of teams and I've figured Me, the doc, benjo, tiny, F11WC, buddha + 2 others will be enough, so there's 8 max.

There's a whole lot of settings that I don't understand, but I've made it so that you have to pick two LB's as well in your line-up.

avy may be interested, isn't he a green bay fan?

Not a bad move for Occy, we need a good wide receiver. Playing with brady as well will surely help him. Hopefully we can keep his controversy factor to a low this year.

How long did it take you to get your email Afro?

Ocho's biggest problem is a lack of commitment lol.

I think avy will be in. That's a full list then. If we get too many interested, we can always start a second league.

Get your team in and your draft picks ready, guys. The sooner the better.

It took me about 15 minutes for it to come through.

yeah I got mine and joined the league. Took me a while to figure it out :lol:

Explain to people how to join the league, Buddha, you're not the only one who had trouble :lol:

I assume you're supple dumpers. Got you in week 1 :evil:

I am

Who else needs assistance. I helped Benjo out.

DUDES
For those of you attempting to join the league

go to the fantasy NFL homepage fantasy.nfl.com
Then click on the received an invite link on that page. It is below the big 3 yellow links
400791 is the id
password is kevinairs

Then you fill in your team name and stuff


Happy Fantasy

Well I guess now I have to. :lol:
I'm up for it though.

Hey, what kind of Steelers fan wouldn't be in :P

Ok guys, once you get into our league, you need to click 'my team' and then 'pre-draft selections' then click the yellow 'edir pre-draft selections' button. Pick out your players and hopefully we'll have a full league done soon and we can have our teams ready soon.

Well this is nice and confusing.
How many players do we put in the pre-draft?

You can have up to 20 I believe. It's up to you which ones you pick, basically what you're doing is putting in a preference for certain players through the draft. If the draft goes through and you haven't picked up for example a QB yet, you'll be assigned the next best ranked QB that hasn't been picked. So it's not the end of the world. But if you wanted Santonio Homes really badly, you'd probably pick him in the top few picks.

I choose the draft order so I'm going to go with the order which people sign up.

We've got the option of having an online draft, where everyone ha 2 mins to make their selection, much like the NFL draft.

Or we can have an offline draft, where the computer just picks out based around the shortlist each person submits...so do you guys think you can be online for about 4 hours one night?

If given enough warning, I would be very much up for it

I should be available most nights.

I think something like Tuesday night once the league is full should be ideal.

OK I'm in.

Who was it who was the Titans fan? Was that Shaker?

Pretty sure it was

4 hours in one night will be a bit of a stretch for me...mum wants me to cut down my internet usage unfortunately. :?

Didn't you sign up first :P

That's the perk of being the person who had to figure out the near impenetrable bullshit that the sign up forms are.

Packers RB Brandon Jackson has reportedly joined Cleveland. I don't know why we're letting him go when we need a decent RB.

Titans' QB Vince Young has joined The Eagles to play as Vick's back-up on a one year deal.

I'm a bit disappointed by the lack of movement from the Packers.
