Fantasy Soccer, anyone? (2012-13 Season - need players!)

Fri Jul 15, 2011 6:03 am

So, I've become quite enamored with fantasy soccer (to the point of playing Copa America Fantasy on a Malaysian website right now :P), and was wondering if anyone would have any interest in joining an ESPN Premier League fantasy league with me. If so, I would like to try to coordinate a snake-draft to implement into their current scoring system, like so:

All owners would get in a chat-room or forum and make draft pics (snake-style) to fill out a whole 15-man team, and thereafter go into their ESPN account and create a team with their drafted players (i imagine with enough team owners, no drafted team would exceed their salary cap). Thereafter, players could be dropped and added as necessary, with a league Commissioner keeping track of which players had been selected and which players would be available. By the same token, the Commissioner could be in charge of OK-ing trades between teams that requested them. The scoring of the game would be within ESPN's parameters, where total points all add up throughout the season to crown a champion at the end of the season. Also, a team's players would be subject to the honor-system with no way of limiting an owner's movements, but I think we're all big kids here, and can handle that issue. If anyone has any issues they see that I haven't thought of, please speak up. If anyone has any questions for me, please ask away.

Thanks,
Conrad

I'm organizing Season 2 of this idea on facebook, and was wondering if anybody was interested in joining the league? The first post in this thread describes how it goes, but if you have any further Qs, let me know. If you want to join the league, PM me a link to add you on facebook, and I'll invite you to the facebook Page where this league is organized...Thanks!
