Mind the grammar and syntax because I copied this from last year's thread and edited it for this year, so there may be some errors.
It is that time of the year (again, pretty late on this). Honestly, my motivation to do this was low, since I have barely paid attention to sports in the past year, but I do enjoy playing this. This is going to be a quick rundown of how this works. A fantasy league is a game where you pick a certain amount of players to form a team and they earn you points. Every week is a match-up between yourself and someone else in the league. The points for each person's team are compiled and whoever has the most wins that match-up. This goes on for about ten weeks, and then the playoffs start where the top teams play each other for the championship (as well as a loser's bracket). Winner of the championship gets to then brag to everyone because they won a virtual game (or win money, but this will be a free league).
Even if you know nothing about the NFL or American football (or detest that the United States has their own form of football and calls the traditional code of football "soccer" (a word created by the English)), it is simply a game of statistics and figuring out who will give you the most points in the week by adjusting the lineup, picking free agents, and managing bye weeks.
The league will be hosted on NFL.com. Currently, it has not been created; I need to get a headcount of who will participate. This league will consist of people from JV and random people. I will make a public league, reserve spots for the interested players, and the rest will be filled with randoms.
Please let me know if you are interested by PM'ing me your email account, so I can send the invite (and subsequently creating an NFL.com account if you have not). Also, I am hoping for creating the league approximately in the upcoming week and holding the draft soon after that (what I have found is the league fills up when the draft is a few hours away), since the first NFL game is 9 September. Always, please let me know if you have any questions. Sorry, this was kind of cobbled together.
