Well, I (along with a friend) are co-commissioner’s of a fantasy football league. Since neither of us has the time to run our own league this year, we are using Sandbox to run the league for us. There is an entry fee that is split to the first and second place teams at the end of the year, 75%-25%. Trust me, highly affordable. Picture 4 Abraham Lincolns.

If you want to join, email me. Since I trust the dopers, I have no worries about receiving the pittance of a fee, especially since it means you just might walk away with a dandy little Christmas bonus.

The league is a private/keeper league, Super Fan involvement level, open list draft type, head to headd scoring system. Any other questions, let me know. We still have six slots left, so first come first serve.

And, just so you know once you join, my team is Hermoso Castor. The other commish is Black Diamond. We have each done this for 3 years, although we previously did everything ourselves. Somehow marriage, houses, and real jobs tend to suck up the free time needed to do as extensive and hands on a league as we would like. But, it should still be pretty darn fun.

Mully, I’d like to be in, but before I cut out another doper you need to let me know when the draft is, if I’m not available I won’t take up your spot. And shit, for $.04 you better believe I’m in.

For a pot of 40 cents, you better be ready. The draft is offline. You pick your players, the draft runs automatically. I think it is scheduled to draft when the league fills up, but I would have to chack on that. I can let you know tomorrow. Go ahead and join, just email me to let me know. I can send you the group name, password, and address to send your donation.

40 cents? You mean we’re talking Ike’s here now?!?!?! I didn’t realize things would escalate so quickly.

Anyways, I’ll keep my nose here, and my e-mail is handy.

Hey Omni, you have mail.

For everyone else, there are still 5 slots open and the promise of easy winnings. Well, 2nd place at least since I already know I’ll be winning.

Just giving this thread a nudge to see if I can spark any more interest.
