There are usually several leagues every year depending on interest. I don't know if any of the leagues from last year are renewing.

Welcome.

If enough people want in we can form a league this week sometime. Most live drafts are taking place at the end of the month. No rush to get anything started.

I'd be in for yahoo

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I'm always in. Would love to start up the old keeper league again. Those were always fun, but there were issues trying to find a GM for every team, and on top of that, keeping everyone around long enough to finish an entire season.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Add me in. Prefer free ESPN platform personally.

 

[bigbuffalo313]

How many peopple would we need to start one?

 

[Baby Punisher]

I'm in a yahoo league now that is very intense.

Alright, start a 14 team league, maybe even 16. Seems like there is a decent amount of interest.

Anyone have suggestions for league settings?

Thoughts?

Personally after years of playing I find the deeper leagues with more teams to be the most fun and challenging since you rely on the breakouts and waiver wire to stay competitive all season. It forces people to remain active rather than drafting a small team of top-tier players that will perform even if a GM goes inactive.

Also live drafts can take awhile so I would suggest a draft time on a weeknight no later than 8:00 p.m. or sometime on a Sunday depending on schedules.

That looks pretty good. I prefer head to head - points personally, but regular H2H is fine.
