The league is set, and this can be our official chat thread for smack talk since the yahoo interface isn't all that great for chat.

If you are looking for suggestions on who to start, post and I will give my opinion. Mendenhall or Stewart, Ward or Gonzalez, etc. But if you are asking for an opinion, please list who they are playing against otherwise we can't give a qualifie opinion

Cool, I will set up a league tonight and PM yall the details. It isn't the one from last year, but you can join 4 leagues with Yahoo, so that shouldn't be an issue if you wanted to do this one and the other.

Anyone have a specific preference about time/date? I normally aim for Saturday's about 1 or 2 weeks before the regular season so you don't have to worry about drafting someone who was injured in the first week of the pre-season a la Mike Vick a few years ago.

I adjusted it slightly to have more 2 QB's and 2 Def's. It puts a bit more priority on the QB position than a normal 1 QB league. Ditto with the defense where you can have one good defense the entire season and not have to change it out at all.

Also, I figured sat wouldn't conflict with most people going to work, and 11:30a.m. on the east coast is 8:30a.m. on the West coast, so everyone should be awake by then.
