    It’s that time of year again where we fire up the friendly fantasy football league among members.

    Please follow instructions carefully, it’s real simple:

    Send me a PM with your e-mail address and I will go through the league website on nfl.com and get an invite sent to you.

    FAQ’s that come up very year:

    Q: I played last year, do I need to do this?
    A: Yes, every year I delete the previous league and create a new one since there’s so much turnover with some new members playing and some not.

    Q: Details?
    A: 10 team non-PPR, but if we have more interest we can add more like we did last year. Draft will be snake order; playoffs set for 6 teams weeks 14-16, but again that could change depending on league size based on interest.

    Q: When is the draft:
    A: It’s set for Monday, September 2nd at 8pm. It’s possible to have some wiggle room with that but it’s almost impossible to get 10-12 guys’ schedules aligned for this, hard to make everyone happy at once. If you can’t attend online the league autodrafts for you, which means that when your turn is up your team is given the best available player. Teams that autodraft make the playoffs every year and I ask myself every year why I don’t just do that.

    Q: I sent you a PM 6 hours ago and don’t have an invite yet, WTF?
    A: I work full-time, go to school part-time online, and have a 14-month-old; you’ll likely have an invite within a day and I promise you won’t miss out on the league.

    Q: If I ignore the instructions in this post and then reply to the thread at the last minute asking why I’m not in the league yet, will I still be able to play?
    A: Unlikely

    Everyone who sent me a PM today should have an invite. Due to demand the league has been expanded from 10 to 12 teams.

    Treadwell should be available, I’ll pencil that in for you.

    I got a PM from Bass Thumb the other day and now with Terny’s request we now have 14, which is by far the largest league we’ve had since I started playing in the IDO league 4-5 years ago.

    Is anyone interested in the crankbait prizes this year? If you’re not familiar, we send our favorite NIB crankbait (or other baits) and the winner takes all. If there was enough interest, we could do a couple places with 14 teams. I’ve won it before and am still experimenting with those baits. Also fun to see what everyone else uses. I’m out of KVD signed baits, so that’s out this year. Do need to do a hard deadline so folks ante up early in the process.

    If you are, my address is below (same as last year). Please include you screen name so I can mark you down. Will confirm with the group when I get one….I’m in, so there’s one.

    Also, I had made the league a 14-team league due to a few recent requests and now one may not be participating, so we may be at 13. If anyone is interested in that final spot please send me a PM with e-mail address so I can send you a league invite.

    Gentlemen,

    A reminder that the draft is tonight at 8pm. If you can’t make it the website will give you the best player available, which usually turns out a pretty good team.
