I played in a fantasy football league for the first time last year and had a blast! This year I have started my own free League at CBS Sports. If you're into fantasy football and are looking for a league to join, consider mine. There's no fee, but that also means the only 'prize' you get are bragging rights. We are having a live draft on Thursday Oct 7th at 7 p.m., but if you can't be online at that time you can preset your wish list and it will auto draft for you - drafting the highest player that's available from your list. If you're interested, post here or PM me and I will send you the info and password. Are you ready for some fantasy football?

It's not really too complicated, last year was my first time and, although I didn't win, I wasn't last either. It just depends on whether or not you know a few football players that you would like to have on a team. Even if you don't, the so-called 'experts' will rank the players and you can just go with their rankings. So go to cbsports.com/fantasy and search by draft date. Our Draft date is September 7th at 7 p.m. The name of the league is Brown and Company. The password is NFLfun. You can pre-select players in advance and they will automatically draft them for you if they are available when you are up to pick. Then the only thing you have to do is switch out players when they have a bye week for someone on your bench. It will tell you how many positions you need to fill, I can't remember right now. I know you need one quarterback, at least two running backs, at least two wide receivers, a kicker, a tight end, a then some backups at wach position for your bench roster. You use them when one of your active players has a bye week. Then you pick a defense. So whichever team you think is the best defensive team, you want to pick them as your defense. It's simpler than it sounds. Maxx can probably help you!

Oh yeah, a couple more things. When you go to CBS Sports look for free private leagues. Then search by draft date. Also you can add and drop players throughout the season if you want to, say if one of your players get suspended, injured or just sivks.

LOL You both have decent teams. Sometimes I think you get better players with the auto-draft than when you pick them yourself. I am Evadicators and my husband is Predators.

Yup, Maxx, you are tied for first in your division with a 1-0 record. Synn, unfortunately, is 0-1 so she is at the bottom of her division (which is also mine). But it's so early, there'a much more agony in store for all of us. Don't forget you can edit your lineup (move players from bench) or even change them for better free agents if you want.
