Fantasy Football 2005

posted on 2005-07-13 at 23:02:53 by Joel Ross

It's still a little early to be thinking about it, but I'm putting this out as a feeler for interest this year in joining a fantasy football league from any of my readers. Last year, I ran one, but only got eight teams in it, it wasn't interactive, and I never really knew who most of the people in the league were.

This year, I'd like to change that, and make the league much more interactive. If you're interested in joining, leave a comment.

I'm trying to decide what system to use. Last year, I used Yahoo, but I saw a post from Mike Torres saying that MSN and Fox would be offering fantasy football this year too, and since it offers live scoring for free, I'm thinking I may switch. Any others out there worth considering?

I would be interested. I'd love to be in a league of geeks.. Oh I can see the insults now.. "I smacked your team around like you were using inline sql from your querystring".

I would be interested. I use to be in one (or more) every year but I've missed the last 2 seasons for some reason.

The two best sites that I know of are sandbox.com and sportsline.com but they are no longer free.

Funny thing, nfl.com's fantasy football is provided by sportsline..and it's free. So checkout http://football.nfl.com/splash/football/nfl/single?refcode=nfl_sl_ffsgl_1

Aaron: I'm hoping that the interaction will be good, and we'll get some good smack talk going!

Andrew: Yes, I assumed you would be interested.

Erik: I was in the same situation you were in - 2 years without a league, and my only solution was to start my own league. I'll definitely check out the NFL site. Thanks for the link!
