UFL is on the NFL network tonight guys, they are interviewing UFL coaches right now.

I just tuned in to check it out.  They're already in week 4 and Dallas has an undefeated football team, lol.  With all of these teams east of the Rockies and most of them east of the Mississippi, it's hard to pick one to root for.  I'm certainly not rooting for a team from Dallas, but they're the closest team to the west coast.

I don't have a favorite team in this league but it's football so I tune in here n there. With 4 months to go before NFL preseason, we gotta take what we can get. NFL draft coming up as well in the next week or so, that should be interesting.

I watched for a little while, an was impressed.  The skill set of the players doesn't seem that far off from the NFL, which is something previous alternate leagues seemed to lack.  I also noticed some familiar names, Tua Tagovailoa's little brother Taulia playing QB for Houston.

Unfortunately, it's just as commercial infested as the NFL, and for some reason football commercials are the worst.  The level of subliminal cuckery propagandized during football games is impressive.  I think it is, anyway.  I don't watch TV unless it's football, so maybe it's all like that.

NFL draft coming up as well in the next week or so, that should be interesting.

Haha, the addiction is real.  I'm looking forward to the draft also.

Gruden's doing commentary during the UFL game.

Holy shit first 3 plays of the BHM/CLB game were insane !!!!!!

check out the highlights.

Its either that or worse. The number of drug commercials on TV is absolutely ridiculous. Regular people have no business asking their doctor if Tardvoxx is right for them. There's also way too many insurance commercials, and they play the same commercials far too often.

All great reasons to avoid TV when its not football season.

Sept 1st is exactly 100 days from now. Regular season begins on the 9th. We'll be there before you know it.

Heheheeh if this is UFL, keep convincing yourself this is good.

Is everyone from last year playing in the fantasy league this year? Are we continuing on using Yahoo? If I am being honest, I like Yahoo. Also, do we need to recruit more players before September? We should do this presently to fill all the slots.

Have you been watching it?

It has improved quite a bit from the xfl/usfl days.

Of course its not NFL level but it beats the fuck out of college.

And if you watched the beginning of that game I mentioned it was 3 plays in a row that were all wild defensive wins.

AFA Yahoo, we ended that debate last year and this league will stay on yahoo.

Feel free to pm everyone and ask if they are in again, I don;'t do this until a month or so from pre-season.

Also Dues are going to have to be paid before the season starts, expecting Direwolf to have to run around reminding people is not his job and some people seem to think the unpaid time out of our lives doing this is worth nothing.

I think we are losing a guy from last year but I can't remember what everyone has said so I am going to guess we have one slot or 3 slots (add 2 more would be cool) available.

So feel free to recruit people but no scum accounts.

I don't want to have to deal with any fuckers that would want to cheat for a lousy grand.

If you get players then PM me and I'll spend some time vetting them before mentioning them in the thread as I don't want to see the thread become a trust debate or popularity contest.

We should probably look to start the recruitment process soon as we are about 2 months from preseason starting. I don't ever win this but it is a fun way to spend my Sundays and it's fairly cheap entertainment. Would like to see a minimum 10 in this year if not 12, the more we have the more fun we get to have talkin shit.

Go for it, I'd love to have 12 this year.

A roll call would not hurt.

I don't start until a month before preseason starts but there is nothing stopping from you guys doing the recruit and anything else you want in the mean time.

Anyone any of you guys find I will find the time to vette before that though.

Now is a good time for everyone to get their list together for any recommendations for changes to be voted on.

[DireWolfM14]

I hope suchmoon is in the mood to give up some of his money again this year.  A rollcall would be a good way to start out to make sure we've got the same crew as last time.

@Hueristic, does your buddy Paul want to join us again this year?

I am joining our fantasy league for this year also! This will certainly be a good year to join because bitcoin can be bought very cheaply! The winner of this will certainly have more amount of the prize if counted in American dollars heheeheh.

In any case, Justin Fields was traded to the Chief? What does this imply for Patrick Mahomes? The team still does not trust his knee because of the injury?

Oh... I'd totally forgotten about the Chiefs story arc for last season already. Fields has always been a backup quarterback. He was playing as a starting QB, but now he's found his true calling.

I was feeling more gung ho about doing multiple leagues on the forum toward the end of last season but now I'm not so sure.

I prefer Yahoo! over Sleeper and ESPN. I can understand why some people would prefer Sleeper, but Yahoo keeps our historical records, which will hopefully be going for years to come.

[bbc.reporter]

@nutildah. How many years has this fantasy league running? We started when it was during the coronavirus pandemic? this will be year 5 or 6 if I remember correctly. We can continue this until 10 years or more, I reckon heheheh.

Also, agreed. We should keep doing this on Yahoo. I very much wish @Hhampuz will join us. I am not quite certain why he does not like Yahoo.

I don't know where we're going, and I don't know where we've been. - that's from a Talking Heads song, now you know its not plagiarism (cough, @suchmoon)

But I know I'd like to continue this fine tradition with you guys for as long as possible.

What's funny is Yahoo! was one of the first internet infrastructure providers and they lived through the period between when absolutely everybody started using Google to being noticed for their Fantasy Football (they probably do other things, IDK what). They'll keep going forever.

I think the Chiefs just wanted a good quality back up in case something does happen to Mahomes. I don't think they were prepared for a situation like what happened and now they are trying to change that.

[bbc.reporter]

@yahoo62278. It appears that you might be correct. This announcement from Andy Reid might be implying that Patrick Mahomes might not play on the first weeks of this year's season.

They are making it appear that he might be ready, however heheheh.



QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) should "be able to do some things" in training camp in July, per head coach Andy Reid. Mahomes, who just signed a new reworked contract, recently told reporters that he felt he was in a "good spot" in his return from knee surgery after participating in offseason workouts in a limited capacity.
