We have all 10 new keepers paid. The draft will be set for 9.30pm on Sunday 1st September (hopefully Uncle O's draft that night will have finished by then).

The majority vote was for 2 keepers (no players drafted in the first two rounds can be kept) and waivers with the $100 season budget available from the Weds after that weeks matches.

Anyone with a major objection to these rulings should voice them now.

The draft order will be randomly selected by ESPN just before the draft starts (I hope). It was suggested the next years draft order mirrors that of the NFL with the team with the worst record going first. As long as owners do not deliberately lose once they are out of contention that should work.

Thanks for your help in getting this started gents and to d13phe for the original thread suggesting it.

Good luck with your wagers and fantasy teams and in the words of Marv Levy where would you rather be right here right now. Enjoy the season.

I'm the Borehamwood 49ers.  By the way forgot to discuss the prizes. Again going to mirror the structure Uncle O has.

Winner gets £100
Runner up gets £60
2 division winners £25 each
Highest score by a team during the regular season £40

Anyone want to offer any tweakings?

all good lads, no objections
looking forward to it, never done the waivers budget before so a new dimension for me ;)

Villa Dolphins here and all looks good.

No one should throw any games as you always have the chance to get top score and £40.

Lance I think that the £25 prizes should go to the losing semi-finalists as opposed to the division winners. That way if you make the playoffs at least you get your money back. The way it's structured now this is not the case.

If others are happy enough with it as is then fair enough

Point taken db1974. As was the way with the everything else in this fledgling league we shall put it to the vote. Majority rules. I just followed Uncle O's structure from the other leagues, but I quite like your idea so I'll vote your way. 2 - 0 so far.

Everyone else?

And whilst we have re-opened this thread can you all please proof read the settings I have set up in our league to make sure there are no glaring (or even small) errors.

Cheers guys
