I have renewed the BonnevilleAmerica.com Fantasy Football league for the 2014 season. Invites have been sent to all of last year's players. If you did not play last year but want to this year, let me know.

Not much to it Angus, just have to set your lineup every week, make sure you're not starting guys on their bye week, and sit back and enjoy football. Yahoo keeps track of all the stats abd and what not. Maybe do a couple of mock drafts to see how it goes. Or you can just let the computer draft for you. Let me know if you need any help with anything.

No minimum, but to go head-to-head we need an even number. I think 12 teams will probably be the maximum.

I've been in the Chicago for 9 years, living in the west suburbs (Carol Stream) for the last 3. I'm originally from Delaware.

Perceval and britironrider, I sent you an invite to the email you have listed in your profile. If that doesn't work you can click this link
https://yho.com/nfl?l=577036&k=864d760580ae11b8
and use bonnevilleamerica as the password.

You guys will make it 12 teams as long as everyone else from last year signs up. (Still waiting on 3 guys)

How long is a typical draft?

My wife has a last minute trip to take and I will need to bring her to the train station.

If the draft is about an hour, I should be fine. If it extends pass that, I will miss the rest of it.

Really sorry about that. Like I said, last minute thing and I had no way of knowing.

We are supposed to draft in 1 hour, I can't even log in to the league. It appears Yahoo is having server issues. Hopefully they will be resolved by the time we draft.

IndianaT is not playing this year, and apparently no one else wants to, so my wife will manage the 12th team.

Hopefully, the Yahoo server will be back on track.... I'm sure they will work frantically to get things running smoothly!

We've moved to ESPN.

I'm sure Scott will confirm everything and tell us the new draft date and time.

Yahoo still does not have their stuff together. I am moving the league to ESPN, I sent everyone an email. If anyone did not get one, with how to join the espn league, please give me your email address and I'll send you an invite. Thanks.

Yahoo had server issues once again, and once fixed, set our draft up for 9:15 last night. The problem with that was they didn't tell us we were drafting at 9:15 until much later in the evening. Many people missed the draft because of this. I signed up for a new league on ESPN. I sent everyone an invite to join the league. If you didn't get it, let me know, and I'll send you another one.

Yahoo is saying we can redraft, but I'm not sure I want to take any more chances. The season starts Thursday night. I was hoping everyone would sign up on the ESPN league today and possibly draft tonight, but there are only 4 or 5 of us signed up so far. I can set up the draft for one night this week once we have all the teams set.

If everyone just wants to stay with Yahoo and re-draft we can do that, but you guys have to let me know.

If you're OK with switching to ESPN, please sign up, or let me know if you didn't get an invite to join the league.

Signed up with ESPN, after a struggle, why do they hide the "Join League" button? Took me two days to find it. Maybe cause it was right in front of me, oh well, let us hear about the draft of the redraft, seems like I missed the first half of Yahoo's draft.

EDIT:

SINCE WE ARE SHORT TEAMS FOR ESPN--WE WILL RE-DRAFT USING THE YAHOO LEAGUE TOMORROW NIGHT AT 10PM EASTERN, 9PM CENTRAL, 8PM MOUNTAIN, 7PM PACIFIC. IT IT DOESN'T WORK, ****** IT, I GIVE UP. I SINCERELY APOLOGIZE FOR ALL THE CONFUSION/HEADACHES THIS HAS CAUSED. I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A CHANCE TO GET THEIR TEAM DRAFTED, AND ENJOYS THIS SEASON. THINGS CAN ONLY GO UP FROM HERE!

I just saw that we also have a draft on ESPN at the same time!

... so just to confirm that it is indeed Yahoo, and not ESPN?

That didn't go so well.

I learned the passing of a buddy in the middle of the draft.
