Fantasy Football revisited

So, we're getting close to the start of the NFL season. I think if we're going to do a fantasy league we should get moving. From looking at Brian's post, it looks like the participants are:

Greg
Michael
Shawnna
Esther
Brian
Brandee (? Are you running a separate team?)
JT (maybe? Do you know yet?)

I will have my own team if we have an odd number and need to even it out. If there is already an even number, I'll just be a backseat owner for Esther (whether she likes it or not).

Anyone else who wants to participate should chime in soon. I'm thinking we should have the draft by Labor Day weekend (in one week!). I think the first game is the following Thursday. So at the very latest, we need to have a draft by, say, Tuesday, Sept. 4. I think I heard (or read) that Greg would volunteer to start the league and serve as league manager. Or perhaps Brian will be willing to take it on, since he's the original post-er.

We should also lay out the scoring system, since I think people are used to different ones. And we also need to determine the number of starting positions.

For those who haven't signed up yet, it would be fun if every family had at least one team. I think you will enjoy it. And don't be intimidated if you're a rookie. It's easy to learn. Those of us who have played before could help out those who haven't played before (free tip No. 1 - don't draft Michael Vick).
