Fantasy Football



Well Raider Nation its Fantasy Football season and Its hard for me personally to play Fantasy Football being a Die Hard Raider Fan. And I say that because like it or not there are good players on the Chargers, Donkeys and Chiefs but I personally have a problem picking a player from any of those teams.

With that being said I choose the Automatic drafts that I can rank the players by position and choose the order of the position being drafted. Meaning RB, QB, WR, RB. WR,TE,DE,and K and so on each person has there own veiw of how to draft. But it takes the emotion out of the drafts. Meaning I always want to draft Raider players with other (full time players) available.

Does anyone else play fantasy?


Anyway I started a Fantasy League on NFL.com Silver-N-Black Nation if any Raider Fans are interested its a private league. Let me know.

I play fantasy football, but I’m already in two leagues and that’s my limit because I play fantasy baseball, basketball and join pick ‘em leagues. If I wasn’t otherwise so occupied, I’d join.

Only Problem

with live Drafts you can pick the Date but not the Time.

eh, rather that

than an automatic draft. IMO, I always thought the point of fantasy football was to be the GM of your own team

I agree live is better

BUT only if your in a room full of drunking buddies. How are you going to be able to get everyone at their computers at the same time and long enough to do that. For the readon along I perfur automatic.

Lets try this Again

Seeing how the season is months away and there isn’t much interest in a Silver and Black Pride Blog Fantasy League. There’s time to start another League.

I suggest we cancel this league and start a new league with suggestions of those interested. Like Live or auto draft and make it a public league for all Raiders Fans.
To guaranty 12 people.

This year NFL.com has changed the automatic draft so you can not select which position drafts when so I would prefer a live draft and take my chances because if can’t make the draft the computer drafts for you (just as the auto format does) so Live is much better.

Let me Know what you think.
