GAABoard Fantasy NFL - Superbowl V - Champion Crowned

[Galwaybhoy]

Thanks for setting this up AZ.

The Mafiosi are in - but re-branded as a result of sponsorship difficulties.

For 2009 I will be winning, and continuing the Mayo record in Connacht this year - as the Mayo Clean-Sweepers.

For the top team in Connacht you will have competition from The Galway Impactplayers and another team The 'Mayo Warriors' now that you decided to enter the Walter Payton Conference.  After our absence last year because of our team not getting all their forms in on time the Impactplayers are back and we want to improve on our 6-9 record from two years ago.  We are not a big money team like the Clean-Sweepers, we are more a small team for the ordinary working man punching above our weight.

I didn't see this
"Go to Join a League from the Fantasay Football home page, and the ID is 357492 or 357481. The password is 'cardinals'"

If you need me to leave montana and join Payton let me know.

Found this post on another boards site:

"NFL announced this tea time(6th August) that there will be NO pre season games this season on Sky.
And no contract expected to be signed by anyone until 2 or 3 weeks from now.
Negotiations they say are tough in the economic climate (ie Sky probably want to cut the price a lot, I imagine).
Also refer to contracts plural, suggesting ESPN might be involved.
And that we might lose other things apart from pre season but gain in other ways.
The NFL UK statement refers to three steps forward and two back () summing up the likely situation this season.
But this deal is going to the wire and we might surmise (ie guess) that Sky and ESPN are not willing to pay what NFL want and this might result in a lesser number of games.
But that is pure speculation as there is no hard news and seemingly may not be until mid/late August."

So no preseason games this year on sky...
Hopefully theyll get it sorted in time for the season opener...

Hi Lads,

Just withdraw from the league you are in, and join the other one.

We still need one more by the way, at the moment the Payton conference is short by 1.

AZ have ya decided on the points for coming year or leaving them as they are?
Will have an affect on draft rankings

[AZOffaly]

Fair point Rossie. I've been away in Legoland for a week with the young fella, and I'm swamped at work since I came back. But I think it's a valid point, and I had asked for feedback. This is the current scoring system...

I'm intended reducing the TD Pass to 4 points, and increasing the defensive players tacke to 1 point from 0.5.

Anything else?

[AZOffaly]

Also, from looking back at earlier posts.,I like the Point per Reception as well.

How do those changes sound? Passing TD = 4 points, Reception - 1 point, Solo Tackle = 1 point.

[declan85]

Them changes sound good!
