[T3hRaven]

I'm not even sure I'm doing this, yet I'm still trying to come up with team names.

[gabefergy]

Just giving you a heads up gabe, I sent the order to Berad a LONG time ago.... Literally like a week ago, and told him to tell you guys....

What order?

[ravensnick]

Thinking the Baltimore Barbarians. Conan shall be our mascot. 

[SecretAgentMan]

Gabe. Check the PMS

[52520Andrew]

My team name shall be the...

 

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Puffins

[ravensdan]

      THE PADUCA PICKLED PUCKERS

 

 

This team has some big shoes to fill, my team last year rocked.  Really good team.  How many rounds are we planning on?

[T3hRaven]

Looks like I have another rival already...

French toast is better...

I couldn't think of anything else and thought it was decent, but nothing is better than a piece of French toast holding a tommy gun.

Pick Six Clique.

Pick Six Clique.

That works but I was trying to play off 3 Six Mafia. I have to see what else I can thing of.

We are at 22 people so far.  Ten to go!

So....... how exactly is this different from Fantasy Football and why have this game when FF starts in a couple months?

Because we field entire teams, and we don't face each other. Why do you continue to refer to every Offseason process as Fantasy Football? We have this process because 32 people found it enjoyable last season. If you don't, then don't participate. Simple as that.

I was just trying to figure out the difference, I mean snake draft style drafting every player. All what you do with FF. I only say it about the GM game because everyone gets crazy with stupid unrealistic trades.

It's just for fun.  It kills time in a slow offseason.

[52520Andrew]

Just curious but are there any games where you guys do an auction format for the draft? I generally follow that format more when we get into the actual fantasy football as it allows more freedom with bidding although it probably wouldn't be realistic to do on the forum.

[Ozzsome]

Are we going to start right after reaching 32?

[rmw10]

We should probably wait until after the real draft to get things rolling.  I'm sure most people will be focusing more on the draft and our new players.

[gabefergy]

We are starting after the draft, assuming we have 32 participants by then.
