With kickoff slowly approaching who plays FF? Do you have a preference with the number of teams in your league? We played with 12 last year, 6 in each division. We may play 4 in 3 divisions this year. Which site do you prefer? How do you decide the order of your draft?

i suggest no more than 3 leagues and no more than 12 teams/ league and do a live draft.

scoring: 1 QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1 TE, 1K, 1D. some leagues i play in use a flex position in place of the 3rd WR.

I generally play in at least 2 leagues of 12-16 teams. Most often the draft order is chosen at random. I like yahoo just because i've been playing in the same league for the last several years....a different guy starts it each year and we all sign on. I have talked with some guys that I play with about starting a "keeper" league. Does anyone have any experience playing in one of these?

We always played yahoo until last year, the boss switched to espn. I liked both, I dont have a preference. What is a keeper league?

In a keeper league you keep the same players every year with a limited number of allowances for drafting/retiring players. It makes it a little more intricate and can make trades/drafting much more important.

10 or 12 teams is perfect.

I am going for my 3rd title in a row in my league with friends. How? Not following that stupid notion of using your top 2 draft picks on big name running backs. As ESPN The Magazine says, "The era of the 3 down back is dead." Running backs will emerge. Quarterback will not.

If you have a league that gives points for completed passes get Drew Brees, with Shockey added he's going to be a Fantasy beast this year.

I was in our championship game last year, it helped I had Adrian Peterson, I still lost. I always toy with the idea of whether or not to pick two RB in my first two picks.

Stupid? Stupid is thinking there's only one way to win.

Quarterbacks won't emerge they say? What would ESPN say about the play of Derek Anderson and Kurt Warner last year? Kinda surprised everyone.

Personally, I haven't taken a qb in my first 5 picks in years. They score fairly similiarly for the most part so why burn an early pick.

you have to admit with the play of Brady and Manning in the last 2 years or so. they make a strong case to go in the top 5. prolly not a top 3, but you never know.
