Title: Fantasy Football (No gambling - just for fun)
Post by: Scott on August 08, 2012, 04:15:59 PM
We've had a Fantasy Football league for quite a few years. If anyone is interested, please let me know.

We need to have at least 6 players in the league to make it fun.  Please let me know if you are interested.

Thanks...

Does it require knowing anything about football?  I know two groups of guys try to get the ball to each other's end goal, but that's about it.  Do I have to study up on how the game is played to play this fantasy league?

If there's no gambling, where's the fun in it?

That is up to you.  We once had a gal from England play and she knew nuthin' 'bout football and she did okay.

This is a stat oriented game, so you should read about the games and don't expect your opponents to let you know when your players are injured or out for any period of time. Within in the game you will find stats, info and news updates on your players, it is your responsibility to read or not read them.

If we'd had Wikipedia a few years ago, we wouldn't have needed The Magic Schoolbus.
