    I have always been in serpentine drafts.

    Position #10 looks like a bummer in this one....

    I'll bet anything team 1 is the first person to sign up and team 10 is the last person to sign up...ie Don Ballard.

    If that be the case, I can see this is going to be a great experience! :lol:

    I still do not know how I ended up with a team name, The Skybox Conference?

    Cruising around the site for the first time, this is actually a pretty slick deal.

    I'm kinda liking my squad....Beanie and Devine, lining up behind TOK's fav Sooner QB throwing to Robiskie with VaTech D and special teams. We don't need no stinkin' tight end. Are you kidding me? We're ready....

    Terry... you and I will tangle in the first game.

    I would love to talk trash, but I've never been a great fantasy player, so I'll think I'll just keep my helpings of crow to a minimum!!
    :p

    Looks like I get Corey in week one and Buckeye T in week 2.

    I like this format. It matters not what you teams power rating is compared to the rest of the conference. It only matters what you teams power rating is compared to one team each week. This is exactly like a pro league I was in a few years back.

    Scott... please make a change to the schedule where I get Buckeye T for the first two weeks. Maybe I will have a chance if I get him before the learning curve. :wink:

    Tom, you are giving me way too much credit....in my case, I fear it won't be a learning "curve" but more like a learning mountain.....hell, I drafted a kid that was injured and out for the season! My dubious decisions are the kind that opposing owners feast upon! Enjoy.....

    Can't blame you for wanting Ingram as your TE....if he was healthy.

    I'm disappointed I didn't get either of Beanie Wells or the Ohio State D.....both of which should excel for FF owners this year.

    Wasn't completely sold on Robiskie because OSU didn't light up the scoreboard as much as you would want to see from a FF perspective although I checked and his individual stats for 2007 were pretty good I have to add.

    High scoring potential is why TT offensive players are in high demand along with a few from Florida......the scoring average for both teams looks to be pretty high.

    MCG, what are you going to do for WR's when UF has a bye?

    If you drop one, you know one of us will snap 'em up!! :D

    I know....that's going to be a problem.

    I wonder if you can drop a different position though like your extra defense, etc?

    Also...I would bet there may be a WR out there that I could exchange evenly by that time....at least I would know more about their performance capabilities by then.

    Looks like I am playing BT in the first game....and both of us have soome high scoring opportunities for opponents.

    We should light up the scoreboard.

    question


    when are freshman going to be eligible to be drafted or picked up as walkons? I've got a few I had my eye on, but I can't pick them up.

    I think they are already there. I just checked, and one of the Aggie fish is in the list...
