It's that time of year again. The quest for the coveted bonnevilleamerica.com Fantasy Football League championship trophy for 2013 will soon commence. To those who have the grit, determination, toughness, and internet connection, to compete for the right to be named League Champion, please PM me your email address, and I'll send you an invitation to join. All 8 combatants from last year have been sent invitations to re-join, and attempt to dethrone the 2012 Champion, KaiserSoze. I'm looking forward to another grueling season on the virtual gridiron, good luck to all. KaiserSoze Commissioner 2012 League Champion

In Kansas City we are really in to fantasy football, we're Chiefs fans. 
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

And now you have the Andy Reid era to look forward to. Say goodbye to the running game. I guess it can't get much worse than before though eh?

I'm finalizing the teams, now that we have 10. I have the draft date set for Sunday, Sept 1st at 2:00pm EDT. Are there any objections to this draft date/time?

I've got some errands to run today, but I should be back home in time.

Yep, you're correct, Eric. The sport in question here is an ugly, extremely brutally physical and nearly no-holds-barred game that allows many avenues and options opened to the Offense, AND the Defense for that matter, in order to score points...including the use of a player's HANDS in which to do so.
In other words, it's not nearly as "beautiful" as watchin' a bunch of guys running around some field and kicking a ball around while maybe ending in a final score of one to nothin'.
Though I WILL grant you the game YOU brought up here consists of nonstop "action".
(...though please note the quotation marks I placed around the word "action" here if you would!) 

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

And Soren, while I'm really not familiar with the whole Fantasy Football thing, but IF the object of this thing is to pick a team of players from the rosters of all of the teams within the NFL and that you think will go all the way and win some form of imaginary Super Bowl, in order to attempt to avoid another year of frustration for you, you MIGHT wish to consider picking as few players as you can from this year's team roster of the SAN DIEGO CHARGERS!!!

I was assessed a B-. I don't remember what it was last year, but it probably didn't amount to squat. I can tell you this though, I had a much better team last year than I do this year. Maybe I'll auto-draft next year  LOL

**Sigh** loyalty is a fault of mine. I'm not expecting much out of the Chargers this year. First year of a new coach after a few bad tears is always a tough transition. I'm just hoping Denver falls apart. I still don't think KC will do much this year either. I'm forgetting someone... oh year there's that other team near San Francisco... wanna be pirates or something... Yep, the Chargers will at the very least do better than the raiders.
