12. What does it entail?
How many hours a week setting up stats and shit?

I've never done it, I know nothing of it. Or do I just set up a team at the beginning of the season, and then never have to do anything again?

14. Just set up a team for the draft and choose your players
Yahoo does all the rest.

15. Well, you do have to set your lineup once a week.
To make sure that your guys are active and not on a bye week.

I spend about an hour a week ditching players that suck, and trying to pick players that suck less and setting my lineup. Sometimes even less time. An hour - max.

16. And what does that mean?
Give me a little step by step first of what being a fantasy football team means, entails, and the process through which the season unfolds.

18. Give me the whole scoop
One or two sentences are not enough. What the hell is it, what does one do, and what is involved in the entire process of playing fantasy football?

Pretend that you're talking to someone who knows nothing about it, nothing at all, nothing whatsoever. Pretend that, because it's true. I know nothing about it. Absolutely nothing.

19. Well you sign up and give a team name
After you do that you fill out your draft card with players you want. You have a total of 14 players 2 RB's, 1 QB, 3 WR's, 1 TE, 1 kicker, and 6 bench players. During the gameweek you drop players you don't want and pick up players you like.

24. Remind never to ask you directions for anything,
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 09:27 PM by Rabrrrrrr
or to write a research paper.

Okay, so I have 14 people with some acronyms I don't know.

I decide to drop some people, but you don't tell me why, or how I would know that they need to be dropped.

How often are games played?

How long is the season?

Who do I play? Who's managing all this?

How do I know what my team scored? Whether I won or lost?

How long after a game is played do I find out? Then need to change players? What kind of time frame are we working in? What happens if I'm gone for a week?

Sorry to seem so short here, but I keep asking you for details, and you give me very small doses that have little meaning and no context.

7. I don't want to be in two leagues.
Plus I joined Lynne's first, and I'm nothing if not loyal. :)

13. I have to stay with Lynne.
She's been too good a friend for me to ditch her like that.

Plus, she knows where I live. :scared:

25. To see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of
their women.
