It's that time of year folks! The time when you and your buddies take to Yahoo! Fantasy Football and play for pride, cash or in some cases, a trophy. This year, I will be running the official "The League" for Bleeding Green Nation and I am looking for 12-16 of our mightiest members to join. Here is how the league will be set up:
The draft will be in a snake format and the picks will be chosen at random prior to the draft.
Positions: QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, W/T, W/R/T, K, DEF, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, IR
You will have six spots on the bench and one IR spot in case you have a guy that suffers a long injury. You will also have two FLEX spots, one will be only WR/TE and the other will be WR/RB/TE.
Playoffs (Yes, I am talking about playoffs): Weeks 14, 15, 16.
The top two seeds will get a first-round bye.
