I wasn't going to do this, but Roger Goddell came around and threw a brick through my window this morning with a note attached offering me a free NFL-endorsed fanny league for 2011/12.
It has free live scoring and a bunch of other stuff that looks about as swish as you'd expect from a league swimming in money.
The key is, do we have enough people to play to make it viable?
We'd need at least eight before I could be bothered to wheel out the Commissioner's Ceremonial Doilies and the off-my-head list is :
1. Me. 2. Moo 3. Horn 4. Coffs 5. DC 6. elth 7. Sonic 8. Narkle 9. Random moo friends.
Narkle's seen here about as frequently as a fresh joke, so may not be interested and DC is probably running his Missus back to the airport after she saw St Helens, so I don't know how close to eight we can get.
After a season off of the Fanny game, (ok, so maybe it was only a season off for me) and with it all the rage in Hollywood I don't think it would hurt to do a complete reboot. One thing it does do is offer auction values for players, so we could, in one off-season, move to a keeper heavy league, (as many as eight keepers), using a bidding system.
Alternatively, we could bring in keepers from wherever last year's roster shook out, (I won't argue about keeping Chris Johnson), for a mix-and-match style.
Certainly the NFL league offers the opportunity to become ridiculously complex, but before we get down that road at all can we have a show of hands as to who's interested?

Aye, but as usual my holidays in September will be a bigger burden as we are away from 3rd to 17th. So it may even impinge on drafting for me.

I know The Bairn was interested, but that still isnt enough. Shame... especially as i was going to win it this season.

I'm also here, but seems we are sans two or three.
Pity Pops is a canute.
