I'm not trying to detract from the other league formed by Brent, but I'm never available for a live draft and prefer the autopick format (personal preference).

I've set up a league as a cheap excuse to promote my company. That way, I can play fantasy football, get to know some guys here at ABW, talk a bit of trash, and be able to write it all off of my taxes...

Maximum of 10 tens. 6 make the playoffs. Nothing happens the last week (when everyone is resting their starters prior to the postseason).

The league winner will be awarded a $50 cash bonus. If I happen to be the winner (unlikely given my previous performance history), the $50 bonus will be donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Just so you're aware, you're more than welcome to play in both leagues...

I saw your sign-up. Right now you've got a 50% chance of getting the $50...

I look forward to seeing future sign-ups (you needn't be an affiliate of FreeQuotesWorld to have a shot at my money...I just want to play some football!).

While I'm glad that this league didn't detract from Brent's, I'm still hopeful that there's enough interest in football to fill a second team.

Shoot, if you're playing in Brent's league, you're more than welcome to come play over here. You don't have to necessarily choose between one or the other.

I think they are all afraid of my superior skills when it comes to fantasy football. It's alright everyone, I'll take it easy on you..

That must be it Scott. 'Cause I can't think of another reason to not play a free football game for a chance to pull in $50...

There are five spots remaining, and I'm looking to do the draft in about one week (to give everyone about a week following the draft to get their teams organized and what-not).

I've also shot an email to the affiliates of FreeQuotesWorld inviting them to come play, so if you want a shot at an easy $50, JOIN TODAY!

Thanks for setting this up, all my friends are the kind of people that set up their leagues 4 months ago and I always get left in the dust.

Love to have both of you. This league is open to anyone who wants to play (both from ABW and the FreeQuotesWorld affiliate program).

I look forward to talking smack on both of you!

I saw your post over there. It was a noble attempt at the first trash talk of the season. Things are shaping up rather nice and I'm excited about the season.

And you're right. There's one more spot left.

I'm setting the draft for September 1. That way everyone has time to set their draft order and we still have a couple of days of trading before opening day.

Next spot closes the table!

Ah, gotcha'.

We're going to draft on September 1 so there's still time to swing some deals before the season starts.

Apparently Yahoo doesn't like an odd number of teams with a head-to-head setting. If no one else signs up by the end of the day, I'll have my little brother join. As if I win, if he were to win, the $50 will be donated to charity.

However, if someone else is interested, please come on over and play.

Grabbed it Chris. And since I didn't have to manually draft, I might have a shot at winning. If I do, donate my $50 to Make a Wish as well.

Good to have you on board, Kevin. If you really want, you can mess up Yahoo's default draft order to your heart's content...

I appreciate your generosity in being willing to donate the $50 to Make A Wish. If you happen to win, please remind me at that time (I doubt I'll remember come the end of the season!).

Best of luck to you - I look forward to a fun season.

If you guys want to end it now, I'd understand. I wouldn't want to play me either.

Not that I'm complaining about Stephen Jackson but I meant to place LJ above him but I have a feeling he's going to outshine LJ anyway.

That's too bad about Jackson's hamstring.
