Time for our second season of MacNN Fantasy Football. I have set up our Yahoo league once again.

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1

League ID: 191261
Password: stevejobs

Team limit is 15.

I don't have a list of who was in last year anymore, so apologies for not contacting you first.

Any questions?

Apologies for it being during the week, but all the weekends were taken already (unless you want to wake up at 6am)

Sweet, I'm in again. And I'm prepared to avenge my thorough trashing at the hands of my fellow MacNN compatriots.
It I want your opinion, I'll beat it out of you.

I wanted Peyton manning but 4th overall was way too early for him to go I think. But that Peyton + Harrison combo is going to be awesome for you Justin

only 4 games, his production down the road should make up for it. I got jesus boy (aka Kurt warner), hopefully he doesn't suck ass this year.

Yeah, that was kind of the reason I picked him. Although I'm worried that Martz only made Warner throw short passes, everything long was thrown by Bulger. Good thing I have them both.

I just noticed that four of the teams (Dudes Anonymous, Voodo Masters, Winners, and FurryiPods) in our league have not had any league activity for over a month now. I understand if you guys don't have time to spends hours every week researching who to start, but it'd be appreciated if you could at least check in on Saturday to bench players you have that are on a bye week. It kind of takes the fun out of winning if you're playing against a team missing players at some positions. It's even less fun if you lose to such a team, like I did last week.

Playoff time!

Looks like the only hope I have is if Detroit defense steps up big time and holds down Trent Green and Priest (weirder things have happened )

Should be fun.

Well thanks to Favre playing out of his mind, his supporting cast pulled off a victory for me and a 5th place finish. Can't wait for next year!
It I want your opinion, I'll beat it out of you.

I had some really good players, but Vick went down and I had sh*t for running backs. I got my ass handed to me this year.

I'm not going to call an ambulance this time because then you won't learn anything.
