Online Football Auction Keeper League Now Forming

Posted: Tue Jul 27, 2004 7:54 pm

Hey All...My buddy and I are putting together some preliminary rules for a great new fantasy football KEEPER league we are trying to start up.

We would like to get 12 teams rolling in the league. The Rules/Constitution can be found at the web site listed below. Some rules might be tweaked slightly between now and kickoff, but you'll get the idea.

This is an Auction Keeper league, so it should be a lot of fun. I've never done an auction football league before, but we thought it might put a tweak in the same old boring football league. The league will cost $75 to add some excitement, but when you consider the hours upon hours of fun (agony) we are going to have it will be well worth it.

This is an online auction draft as I don't think we'll get 12 locals to do it (considering our commissioner lives in Arizona and I live in Washington).

If you or anyone you know is interested (feel free to forward this to any other leagues you play in) please have them contact Todd or myself. Todd's e-mail address is rotismlb@aol.com.

Preliminary league website: http://mysite.verizon.net/res1oh86/nfll/

The only change so far to the constitution is the draft date. It will be on Tues, Sept. 7 at 6:30 pm. Let me know ASAP if interested so we can get a head count.

thanks

I would encourage anyone who is thinking about joining this league to go for it. I play in Nick's (npthree) NL only Keeper League in Washington and will vouch for his honesty and reliability as a commissioner. Todd is also involved in that league. Your time will be well spent and your money safe.

Good Luck with the Football League, I would play but it looks like your auction is the same day I will be in Vegas for the National Fantasy Football Championship.
