It's Morning in America Again
I don't really know how, but I will play....
JPP Fantasy Football - Just Plain Politics, The Legend!
- Thread starter LurchAddams
- Start date
As I have mentioned often in posts, essentially I am tech disabled.With @Stone 's encouragement, I have set up a JPP fantasy football league. There are 8 spots still open after me and Stoney. It's free and it's fun. You select your current NFL players and play head-to-head each week for points. There are also playoffs, where the few in our league with the best records play against each other for the League trophy.
All you need to do, is set up your own yahoo account, PM me your email address and I will send you an invitation to join. There will be a live draft I have scheduled for 8/16, starting at 10am Pacific. If you don't want to participate in the live draft, teams will be picked for you - I did that once, started out with a computer-selected team, and I won the league
Anyway our League is called, "Just Plain Politics The Legend"
so send me your yahoo emails, and I will send you an invited - but work fast! Only 8 spots left!

I have done everything possible to get Yahoo help with setting up a Yahoo account and a Yahoo email. My wife has helped...and she is pretty good. But somehow I apparently did something at Yahoo that causes it to send me a sign in combination that results in an invalid attempt. I am through with trying. My wife and I belong to two other NFL pools...and we will stick with that.
Sorry about that. Hope you guys all have fun. I am going to monitor proceedings here in the thread...and wish everyone good luck.
Hey, man. Thanks for trying, sorry you experienced issues. If you and the Mrs. know anyone else interested, please have them shoot me their Yahoo email address by tonight. @Life is Golden just joined, but we need one more by tonight to maintain our league and have the draft tomorrow.
Have fun in your league! Should be a great season!
Alright, @Poor Richard Saunders just sent me his yahoo address!
We have a league! Just Plain Politics, The Legend is officially a "thing"! Live Draft is tomorrow, exactly 10am Pacific/11am Mountain/12pm Central/1pm Eastern!

This is why I love Americans. We're instigating a nuclear WW3 and playing fantasy football at the same time. No other culture can compartmentalize pleasure like the obese.
Ok. Looks like I joined the league.
Not sure I can make the draft tomorrow so go ahead and do computer picks for me.
Yeah. My whole world should stop because there's a war somewhere I had nothing to do with. I'd ask you to go blow yourself, but you'd only take it as a suggestion and would be attempting it all day.
Perfect. As I said earlier - one time I did miss the draft then enhanced my team on the trade/drafting wire. I actually won the league that year! It can be done!
@Life is Golden and @Poor Richard Saunders please PM me if you've not received your Fantasy Football invitation and I'll resend. As of right now the only two in our league are me and @Phantasmal .
Invitation sent, Goldie! Welcome aboard!
I don't see you in the league, yet, Rich. Perhaps there's a "lag" after you accept? I'll wait a few hours and if I don't see you in the Yahoo league I will resend the invitation.
@Poor Richard Saunders has shown up in our league. Going to resend @Life is Golden 's invitation.
FYI - this is what the main page of our league looks like right now just need Goldie to join up and we're 100% ready to draft in our own!:

We'll see but somehow I doubt it.
Goldie made it! We have enough in our league for our draft and make it official Thanks to @Life is Golden , @Poor Richard Saunders , @Phantasmal - and me?
Anyway - draft is tomorrow! Fun times ahead!

You can let the system draft for you, or just log onto yahoo ff on draft day before, 10am pac/11am mount/12pm Central/1pm Eastern and pick any player you want when it's your turn. It's like when you picked teams for dodgeball in the schoolyard.
Remember that QB's RB"S and WR's are the highest in demand player types, next, I think are Defenses, Kickers, TE's, and I can't remember anymore but you'll see them during the draft - you can message the whole league - the 4 of us inside the draft thigy, or you can PM me here - I'll be checking those as well of either you or anyone have any questions!
Excited guys! Who's ready for some fooobaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllll

And the "trash talk" has begun
I'm tellin' you guys - you can start out with a horrible team, then week by week, drop and draft players - I did that one year on Yahoo and won the league. The system won't draft you a terrible team if you don't want to participate in the live draft - it does take time - over an hour- so it will work either way.
Then - each week watch the team your players are on and root for those players - for example, if you have Patrick Mahomes as QB and Saquon Barkley as a RB - the better they do - the better you do. A touchdown gives you 6 points. We go head-to-head each week, our team against yours, and whoever ends up with the most points wins!
