    Default TPM Fantasy Football League: Season Two!

    Ladies and gentlemen, get ready for another season of the TPM Fantasy Football League! Are you ready to test your NFL know-how against the best that TPM has to offer... including our defending champion, The Pikachus?

    The league will use the same settings as last year. Head-to-head scoring, top 4 teams make the playoffs. It's as simple as that. All you need is a Yahoo! account and the guts to take on all comers. So do you have what it takes?

    Our draft is tentatively scheduled for Friday, August 31, 2007 at 9:30 p.m. Central Standard Time. This may be changed based on when everyone else wants to draft. But even if the eventual time and date doesn't work for you, go ahead and register! You can always have the computer autopick your team if you can't be there.

    With that said, the TPM Fantasy Football League is open for registration! Click this link to set up your team. It's free to play, so get in the game!

    Good luck to all!


    -pikachu_sensei
    League Commissioner, Manager of The Pikachus

    Hello there, children... remember me?

    In case you've forgotten, I'm your friendly fantasy demon, resurfacing after having my reign of terror ended by Brian and his Pikas. But the band is back in town baby, and I foresee another season of Tennessee terror; no doubt I'll be able to emulate my winning duo of Drew Brees and LaDainian Tomlinson with some new members, perhaps with a little Madden cover boy? Shall I finally have a beasty receiving corps, courtesy a newly-signed New England Dandy? All I know is, it's bound to be a year filled with 100-point thrashings, brought to you by the king of smack.
    Stand back little ones, watch the master at work...

    ...I never use the bold key. Thought it'd be neat. Umm, hello everybodeee!!

    Okay, since we have a few teams now (Ghost, you still haven't registered!), I think we can start discussing the draft date/time. I was wondering if we could move the draft up by a day, from September 1 to August 31. I don't necessarily need to change the date, but it would be helpful for me personally. Are there any objections to changing the draft date as such?

    I'll go ahead and make that change in a week if nobody voices any concern about it. A week's probably plenty of time to say whatever you need.

    Definitely! Before last year, the only real fantasy football experience I had was playing as my dad's partner. So if I can go from a mere assistant to winning the whole thing, why can't you? C'mon, join the action!

    Crikey I can't sleep... Will my gamble on Marques Colston pay off? Will Olindo Mare net me some nifty extra points (and maybe throw a TD, ala my boy Longwell last year)? Will Peyton throw nine picks and give me a headstart on the Pikas? Vote YES on all three, please.

    ...And stop voting that Brian will win. Though I admit one of those votes was me. lol

    You and me both. Colston and Olindo vs. Brian's Peyton not yielding pretty results, and Carson's going to have to respond against the Pikas' Baltimore D. Yuck.

    See im trying not to get my hopes up. Im winning so far but theres alot of games still to play apparently lol.

    Hopefully after a coupel of weeks ill be able to get an angle on whose worth what and make some changes.

    Also need to learn whos got what chance against which team. I knew i should have made Manning my Starting QB.
    Less than 5 min into the game and hes already matched McNabb for points.

    I'm loving Steven Jackson's -2. Except, you know, for the fact that I'm a Rams fan. Oh well.

    I predict that once again, I'll have the lowest score of any week one winner. Hooray for minimalism!

    And to be honest, UC, I never would've started Eli in the first game. Considering some of the blowouts he had last year, it's scary to think of his potential to just break down and post a -5, or something. I think you were right to hold off and just see where you stand with everything.

    Whats really annoying me now....my Bench has scored 48 points. 1 Less than my starting team (although 2 of the big scorers are QB's)

    But basically since i only have 2 left to play, and my opponent has 4...im not expecting to win my first week

    My team was consistently poor. I love consistency.
    With the score I'm toting now I'm looking like this year's BYE, only with much, much more smack.

    I believe Sultans of Swing = DTZ. And yes, a WR scoring 25 points in a losing effort is insane.
