While the NFL is okay, and March Madness is fun for two weeks or so, nothing is as good as baseball.
2 years ago, civilyzed ran a fun fantasy league on Yahoo! I loved it. Unfortunately, I don't have enough real-life friends who like baseball enough to join me in a league of my own. So I wanted to see if there was any interest from all of you.
I'm happy to set it up, so post here if you'd like to play. We may be able to work out a big-time prize from skyroniter.

You know, I think I may try this....it's something I've been thinking about.

Baseball is the king of sports, no doubt. I'd give it a shot, even though I've never done the whole fantasy baseball thing.

I'd probably be interested.

Okay, it's set up. With four of us, it could work. We can have up to 12 participate, so invite a friend. The league ID# is: 292339 The password is: watchoutforsnakes It's a Yahoo! setup, so you may need to get a Yahoo! email address to play. You should be able to get there at: baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/league/samptariIf not, you can go through here: baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1I have it set for automatic draft, so you'll need to set your draft board. Once everyone has done that, it'll build the teams automatically.

Ok, I've got my team registered and I've worked on the draft board a bit. When exactly is the draft?

Ok, I've got my team registered and I've worked on the draft board a bit. When exactly is the draft? It depends. If we do an auto draft, it'll be whenever I push the button. Which I won't do until we have everyone who's playing and they all have their draft boards set up. If we do a live draft, then we'll have to set a time and all be there. We can actually go as far as May 2 for the draft. The real season starts next week, though, so the sooner the better.

I don't have any problem with an automatic draft, but I'll go with whatever the group wants to do. I don't have any preference on when we draft, either. Just lead the way. It's starting to seem like baseball season around here

Hey, if it's not too late, I'll join up. I'm like Mod City, though. . .this is my first time doing fantasy baseball. But I agree with Mr. Atari: Baseball is the only sport we need.
I've signed up my team (The Burbank Toblerones). Not really sure what I need to do next, though.

So do you guys want to do a live draft, where we all have to be present and we pick one at a time?
Or would you rather do the auto draft and see what we end up with?
You can always drop players and pick up free agents throughout the season.
We also need one more player to make this work. We can't have and odd number, and right now there are 5 of us.

I think the auto draft would work better.

I'm in for auto.

I'm going to open our league up to the public to see if we can get one more player.
I'm thinking we can have our auto draft tomorrow night, so make sure you've worked out your draft board. If you don't do anything, it'll give you the Yahoo rankings as your rankings.

I am in, wish that I saw this sooner, my team name is Waluigi #1. There are only 6 teams so far, which that would be pretty cool. The teams will be stacked with talent. The playoffs will be cool, everyone makes it & the top 2 teams from the regular season gets a bye for the first round.
