You can find all the details here: Daily Kos FFB League (Fantasy Football H2H Draft 08/30/13): An Invitation
It's modified version of this year's Yahoo standard head to head league. There are few quirks to it - including some slightly different scoring settings and a few unique roster combinations.
But it's absolutely free - and it's always a lot of fun. All you need is a Yahoo ID and a competitive spirit.
More details below the fold:
The live draft is scheduled for Friday, August 30th, at 10:00 pm Eastern (that will be 7:00 pm for anyone on the West Coast - everyone else can do their own time conversions). A Yahoo fantasy football draft usually lasts about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
It's a bit more of a pain to sign up this year, but if you are willing you can do one of the following:
The easiest way is probably to click on my username in this diary, go to my profile page, locate the "Send Message" link (center top), and send me a direct email asking to join, be sure to include the email address associated with the Yahoo ID you intend to use, and I'll send you an invite.
Or you can go here: Yahoo Fantasy Football Signup Page
Then you have to click the "Join a league" button. On the next page click the "Free Custom League" tab. Now you have to page over a bunch of times. It's probably better to filter (so you don't have to page over so many times), so set the "Scoring Type" to "Head-to-Head", the "Draft Type" to "Live Draft", and the "Can't Cut List" to "None". Then click the filter button. You'll then have to page over about 10 or 11 times (by hitting the "next" button just above the league list) in order to get to the page where the league is listed (it's sorted by date/time).
You should find the league on the 10th or 11th page (as of right now). It's called "Daily Kos FFB League" and you have to click the "Join" button. From there sign-up should be as normal.
Conversely, you can click this link:
http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/...
or enter it directly into the URL bar on your browser and it should take you directly to the page you need to go to. (You may have to click "back" and go back on page if it's scrolled off that page already - either that or change the "550" in the address above to "500" or "450").
Again, it's called "Daily Kos FFB League" and you have to click the "Join" link next to the league name. From there the sign-up should be fairly straight-forward.
We have six spots left - but I've opened the league up to the public - so if you're interested you might want to jump on it quickly. I hope to see you there!!
Regardless, good luck with your year, and hopefully your favorite NFL or college team has a great season!! I do love me some football!!
7:25 PM PT: And now I've figured out (thanks to Skipbidder) how to give you a direct link to sign up. So go here:
http://y.ahoo.it/...
and you can just sign up directly. Apologies for all the confusion!! :)
