that'd be pretty fun. would need someone staying on top of all the teams lineups so they don't break the 'gentleman's agreement.'

That looks pretty awesome. I am throwing around the idea on facebook. If that fails would anyone on here be interested in joining a league?

I'd be interested if it's on yahoo. I hate BSPN's fantasy service + refuse to give their site traffic.

I would be down. That sounds fantastic. I've always wanted to do a Bad Quarterback Fantasy League so this would be close to that.

Looks like ESPN is the only site that allows you to give negative points for yards.

If I had enough time I wouldve joined. But I cant call off work this late, so Id miss the draft. Ill be down for joining next year though for sure. This is honestly a WAY tougher thing to win than regular. Way more research has to go into shit like this lol

My league is currently at 8 teams with Terry_Tate potentially joining once he figures out if he can make it to the draft. I will keep you posted since I'll need one more to round out the league if he joins.

The league ended up filling up.

I bet you could find 8 people to do an OC league starting in week 2 if someone wanted to put that together and have the draft on a little better notice.

Our league has done something similar every year for a couple decades. In week 17 (our Championship is week 16) every team submits a lineup (has to be someone already on their team) for the "Loser Bowl". The scoring system is the same as our regular, but the team that scores the lowest points for the week wins the "pot".

All 10 teams puts in $5 for the Loser Bowl. It is interesting for sure.

I matched up against my wife for week 1 of our league. Thanks to Blaine Gabbert and Isaac Redman I beat her 37-3.
