    I've been looking at it for about 5 minutes and I still can't figure out how to join. I've been playing on the NFL.com site for a few years so I already have an account and I'm on the Boards Division 8 page, but I can't find an option to join the league anywhere?

    The sign up page is: http://fantasy.nfl.com/registration/privateleaguejoin

    Just enter the league number and password Spongey sent on in the PM.

    Edit: See Spongeys post below


  • Registered Users Posts: 253 ✭✭Heffo001


    Hit the Fantasy '14 tab and look for the Received a Fantasy Football Invite link under the Create/Join/Activate League buttons on the right hand side.

    Click the link and then enter the league number and password Spongey sent on in the PM.

    It took me about 5-10 mins to figure out when I clicked the PM link so you're not alone.

    Cheers for that, seems a bit more awkward than it needs to be.

    I'm in now anyway: password is taco


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    There seems to be confusion with the PMs i sent. Just follow the link here. The league ID is 2473621

  • Registered Users Posts: 192 ✭✭wardie101


    I am away the whole weekend so outside the weekend best for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 974 ✭✭✭jme2010


    Ok lads, I think all of us listed here are being moved to div 4.

    I'll be setting up a poll for picking a date / time to draft. As most people are busy over weekends etc I was proposing 8/9/10pm of either Sun 31st Aug, Mon 1st Sep and Tue 2nd Sep as time/dates.

    When I get a full list of players I'll send invites to the legue and poll.
    Can I get the Div 8 GM to comment here too?

    Thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,768 ✭✭✭raze_them_all_


    cant monday the first, the birds bday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,546 ✭✭✭✭AbusesToilets


    I'm in as Foxy Fellows. As to the draft time, anytime that would be after 2pm in Arizona is fine with me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    League is full now. I emailed out the link for the poll last week and 8 people have voted. Link is below if the other 8 want to vote. Will leave it open until the weekend. Please use your boards name so we can see who voted

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975

    Draft is on Monday 1st September at 10pm irish time

    Good luck everyone


  • Registered Users Posts: 2 peterdk


    Having issues with the NFL website. Can't access My Team to do a pre-draft order. Anybody have any ideas?

    Cheers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 974 ✭✭✭jme2010


    Try using the app. Or maybe a different browser Crome/FF/IE

    That was the longest draft of my life. 1:40 hrs

    That was the longest draft of my life. 1:40 hrs

    I had another one on ESPN that started at 9 and finished the same time as that one.

    Half wrecked from both!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,682 ✭✭✭LightningBlue


    Well that draft went on forever...
    Very happy with my team overall.
    Picking from 2 so was very lucky with my random draft position.

    QB:
    Griffin III
    Palmer

    RB:
    Charles
    Rice
    Hill
    Cunningham

    WR:
    Cobb
    Sanders
    Williams
    Hunter
    John Brown

    TE:
    Gronkowski

    DST:
    Patriots

    K:
    Vinateiri


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,768 ✭✭✭raze_them_all_


    had an ok draft nothing major happy to get luck and lacey though


  • Registered Users Posts: 948 ✭✭✭SSK


    Happy enough really, although it'll be a boom or bust year I reckon with a lot of potential upside players but a lot of risk with injuries etc. as well.

    Rivers

    Ellington
    Bell
    Ingram
    Ivory

    D. Thomas
    M. Floyd (Cards)
    Maclin
    Dobson
    Stills
    M. Williams (Bills)

    Rudolph

    Autopicked Cards K and Browns D

    Apart from my own team I quite like the look of the Dublin Dragons and the Hellfires.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,666 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Could someone tell me who I got? Hellfires is my team, will be the weekend before I can get on

    Picking fourth I think. Bloody impressive autodraft IMO, RB2 the only area of weakness really.

    M. Ryan

    K. Davis
    M. Forte
    K. Robinson
    D. Williams

    A. Brown
    A. Hawkins
    G. Jennings
    A. Johnson
    K. Wright

    V. Davis
    C. Fleener

    S. Gostkowski

    Rams


  • Registered Users Posts: 192 ✭✭wardie101


    Not too bad a draft but the 16 team draft was ridiculously loooong...Have Stafford and Megatron so live or die by Detroit lol


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,666 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    In all my drafts that I've missed I seemed to have picked up Kendall wright, cheers ssk


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,666 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    decent first win for me mainly thanks to Matt Ryan!


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,666 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    left 22 points on the bench with the Chiefs back up RB

    Not something you can really legislate for, Charles doesn't get injured and Davis scores 5 points tops.

    A pity about Ingram's injury, I was going to put a few trades out there given I have 4 serviceable RBs but can't really afford to now.

    At least I should get my first win on the board assuming Wayne and Parkey don't beat Maclin's score by 38 points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,546 ✭✭✭✭AbusesToilets


    Low scoring week so far, Megatron and Thomas fairly subdued


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,768 ✭✭✭raze_them_all_


    don't know whats going on but NFL fantay is saying I have no teams now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 974 ✭✭✭jme2010


    What a perfectly managed week for me. Just 7.42 points on my bench.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,546 ✭✭✭✭AbusesToilets


    Horrible wknd for fantasy production. McCoy has been something of a bust so far, watching him get stuffed repeatedly at or behind the gainline,

    he wont do a lot untill we get a few o-linemen back id say


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,546 ✭✭✭✭AbusesToilets


    yea, was a pretty crazy situation for the eagles at the end there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,546 ✭✭✭✭AbusesToilets


    Ahhhh, Decker goes out of the game and it's 3-0 :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,546 ✭✭✭✭AbusesToilets


    Have a couple of trade offers out to 50 Shadys of green and Ratoath Renegades


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,546 ✭✭✭✭AbusesToilets


    My gloom at the Pats getting destroyed tonight was lifted slightly by the ultra jammy .03 pt win this week.
