Hello & welcome everyone! This is the forum's official fantasy league, and is open to all members.
Things will be a little different this year. Rumor has it that SeeingRed is unable to run the Eastern Conference this year so I am possibly looking for a replacement commissioner to set up and run the Eastern conference.
If no one wants to run the eastern conference, there are a couple options here. We can combine the 2 conferences to form 1 conference with 20 players, or I control both conferences and it remains 2 conferences with at least 10 teams each. I would perfer to get another commissioner so there is less of a work load for me. Either way I will do what the majority agrees upon.
Everyone who "registers" in this thread is welcome to play as long as we have even numbers to make the conference(s), but it's going to be on a first-come first serve basis, so if you want to play in 2014, post in this thread.
August 29, 2014 will be the registration deadline, so if you want in, now's the time to sign up! We had 20 participants last year, but there is always room for more. We will keep the league size to 20 and if we get past twenty entrants I will keep a running tally and update-- we can accommodate as many as want to play, as long as we have even numbers that can easily be broken into multiple conferences (20, 24 30 etc).
