VERY SERIOUS $ League Has One Free Year (1 Viewer)

Hello, football enthusiasts!

My name is Jacob, and for the past two seasons, I have been running a very active and serious free re-draft league on NFL.com. Being a part of this league has been a lot of fun for myself and for almost everyone else involved, and we recently voted to step the game up even further and make the Best of the Beast league run under a money format.

For consistency purposes, however, I decided that it would be best to have the league run be free for one more season with all 14 owners having made the committment to participate in the money league. This way, I could 100% see that everyone is legit and the transition from 2015's free format to 2016's planned cash format would be very smooth.

As a result, I am looking for three dedicated owners who can not only...

  • Check their lineups virtually every day of the fantasy season.
  • Be able to attend and participate in a live draft that will likely be taking place in mid-late August.
  • Have full comprehension of fantasy football and how it works.
  • Do research, and come into the draft board with a good plan of what you are going to do.
  • Be an active member in the league discussion boards.
  • Be able to follow all rules set by the league commissioner.
...but be able to play free one year and make the committment to a money league in 2016.

The money league in 2016 will run with the help of LeagueSafe. All members will contribute $40 and payouts will be as follows:

1st - $390

2nd - $110

3rd - $45

Highest weekly scorer in week 14 (among teams who finished in places 1-12 in the regular season) - $5

Highest weekly scorer in week 15 (among teams who finished in places 1-12 in the regular season) - $5

Highest weekly scorer in week 16 (among teams who finished in places 1-12 in the regular season) - $5

All scoring settings for this year and next (assuming league doesn't agree to changes during 2015-16 offseason) can be found in link here: http://fantasy.nfl.c...520634/settings

If you are interested, you need to send in an application that answers both of the following questions:

  • What would you bring to this league? In other words, why should I choose you?
  • How many years of experience have you had playing fantasy football?
If possible, it is also highly recommended that owners send in any links to previous leagues that they have participated in.

If you want to send in an application, you can do it in one of two ways:

1.) Write it as a reply to this forum.

2.) Message me right here on FootballGuys.

3.) Give me your e-mail and I will e-mail you back.

I'm looking forward to a lot of fun in both the free format this year and the planned cash format in 2016. If you are interested and confident that you can meet the requirements, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Have a good one,

Jacob

 
Hello Jacob,

It is rare to find a Commissioner who is so detailed and committed to running good Fantasy Football Leagues. I should know because I have been running the Ultimate Football Leagues online for about 22 years now.

I also have some openings in a few of my established leagues that have all been re-draft leagues with traditional snake drafts, but this year I also wanted to start a few new slow-auction, low maintenance keeper leagues, (more interested in football than accounting), and was looking to collaborate with someone else who is really into this to share some ideas and the workload.

I would definitely be interested in taking a closer look at your league if there is still room, and I would love to see how you would do in one of my leagues where you could be an owner and not have to worry about being a Commissioner. Of course, I would also love to see if we can possibly work on setting up a new league together as well.

Anyway, if you are interested in sending me more info on your league, or wanting to get links to my leagues, as well as Constitutions, please contact me at UltCommish@aol.com, and when I have your E-mail I will do the same.

Thanks!

Joseph D. Loiacono
