I want to play a TPF league again this year. $10 buy in would be cool, anyone interested?

drewjax · #2 08-05-08, 03:07 AM

I

can always be counted on to donate to the cause!

Maybe we should do two leagues?

One regular w/ live draft etc.
One salary cap league. I played this last year for the first time, and it was pretty cool, even tho I sucked.

Lets do it.

jillaj · #3 08-05-08, 10:21 AM

I will play for whatever stakes. The higher the better though.

BlibbityBlabbity · #4 08-05-08, 03:19 PM

I'm in for whatever, but I would be interested in doing both types of leagues as well.

lightfungus · #5 08-05-08, 03:20 PM

Reigning champ is in.

Talking Poker · #6 08-05-08, 03:29 PM

I'd like to play too. And I think I prefer the salary cap league for this group of people.

Spidey44 · #7 08-07-08, 12:49 AM

How about a survivor pool? Anyone up for one of those?

MAYHEM45 · #8 08-07-08, 02:12 AM

I've never played before but ill be in.

jillaj · #9 08-18-08, 11:58 AM

So are we getting this set up?

Talking Poker · #10 08-18-08, 02:50 PM

Just as soon as someone steps up and offers to run it.

"Not it."

$10 entry for a side bet? Should be everybody in it if we are putting money in, IMO, but if the majority doesn't care people can enter and not go for the money. Let's see how many we have and we can do either top 1 or two for payouts....

Other thoughts post away.

link is busto.

BlibbityBlabbity · #13 08-19-08, 10:37 PM

You might need to log in (Yahoo) to follow link or just go to yahoo sports and search for league name?

If you need the league ID# it is 485400

redbank09 · #14 08-19-08, 10:47 PM

didnt really read all the previous posts but i would love to do the salary cap fantasy football like we did last year, we could thro some cash in on that

BlibbityBlabbity · #15 08-21-08, 06:37 PM

Bump.....look up 3-4 post for details of head to head league.

If you would rather play salary cap, find somewhere that is offering it and set it up. I don't care either way, but time is running out....

Talking Poker · #16 08-21-08, 11:50 PM

Agreed. I personally thin kthe salary cap one is better, given our forum's level of interest, but I just don't have the time to set it up right now. If someone else does, count me in for whatever amount of money you all decide on.

We can use my "Talking Poker" account on Stars to hold the funds... no problem.

Kurn · #17 08-22-08, 10:26 AM

OK, I'm in.

Team name: The House of Mogh

BlibbityBlabbity · #18 08-25-08, 03:26 PM

Ok, they released Salary cap @ Yahoo.

I created a group and a team for myself.

Opinions on which one to play (or both) and which one to put money on (or both)?

I think I would prefer salary cap (as most others have stated) so I am fine with canceling the other one or playing it for fun in addition to the salary cap for a prize pool?

couple of days left till draft in the head to head league....

jillaj · #19 08-25-08, 03:51 PM

I will play both and put money on either or both of them. I will make a cp team now. My name is meat curtains for both.

Gordogg · #20 08-26-08, 04:02 AM

I will play both as well. I started this thread and feel obligated to contribute but I have no idea what standard settings are for these things. I'm still a noobsauce when it comes to fantasy sports.

lightfungus · #21 08-26-08, 07:49 AM

What's the group ID and pass for the salary cap group?

BlibbityBlabbity · #22 08-26-08, 08:37 AM

Group #2392
Pass: TPFTPF

Kurn · #23 08-26-08, 09:04 AM

I can't get in. What am I doing wrong?

BlibbityBlabbity · #24 08-26-08, 12:18 PM

Group ID#: 2392
Group Password TPFTPF

that is a copy and paste from the site

Link to group page:

TalkingPoker is the group name, but I don't think you should need that.

Kurn · #25 08-26-08, 12:39 PM

I follow the link and it tells me I'm not a member of the group.

I try to login with the group # and PW at the main fantasy football page and it says the login is incorrect.

I go to salary cap home and I can't find where to search for the league.
