Default 2014 Fantasy Football

This will be my first full year in Calgary for NFL Season. Back home in Oklahoma I ran a fantasy football league with friends ( well I actually ran a few of them). We would meet in person for a live draft and general smack talk. It was always fun. We would all put in 100 bucks for the season. There were side games within the league that made the game interesting and kept people interested for most of the season.

I'd like to start that in Calgary. Would there be any interest for me to start and run a CP one like this? We can do a keeper league or just re-draft every year.
Back home we did a keeper league but you could only keep a player for 3 years and every year that you did keep him you lost the original pick you chose the player with. For example let's say you picked a RB in the 1st round. If you chose to keep him the next season, you wouldn't have a 1st round pick.

I just wanted to get an early start to see if we could get this going. I would only like to have about 12 people per league so let me know if there is any interest.

I'd do it as long as it can be done long distance. I could send my money in.

We started a non-keeper league last year. We play for a trophy, if you're interested in joining shoot me a PM.

If you start a keeper league, I'd be interested. This is a good reminder that I need to get the CP FFL going again, don't I?!

Keeper league works for me ... It can be done long distance but not sure how'd we do it with the draft being a live one.

You can also do one on the NFL website? I think you get to choose a time and eveything, and if someone doesn't pick, they pick the best player available for them.

I have never used NFL's. We use Yahoo and ESPN. I am partial to Yahoo as I like the Stat Tracker and being able to click through all my league in a single stat tracker pane.
