Dave's House of Pain

.... At the risk of sounding like a COMPLETE tool, how does this work? I've never done fantasy football at all, and have NO idea if I'd be interested enough in keeping up with it.
Then again.... *pondering look*

During football season you field a team based on your roster filling in the different positions on the team. In the House of Pain this is 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 WR 2 WR/RB, 1 TE, 1 Kicker, and a Defense. The rest of your roster is benched for that week. As the actual games played out you'll be rewarded points based on the stats of your starters. Come Tuesday morning if you have more points than your opponent for the week you pick up the win.
Honestly there's not much work involved, and it really helps make games you wouldn't normally care about more interesting.

So say you like QB A. That weekend, QB A has a GREAT game. You get points based on his performance. Add up all your team's points and compare them to the tema you are playing against and whoever wins gets a W on their record.
Look at it this way. Get a team. Try it out. It's free and it's guys from here so you know you're not going to be made fun of (that much). You got nothing to lose and you might like it.

Yes, please do it so I can play 
Seriously though, I play 3-4 leagues every year. I love fantasy football, and it's all in good fun with a place like this because it's free and just some friends enjoying the game and giving each other a hard time. I only missed last year because I'm a stupid. If you like football and have ever been interested in fantasy leagues, this is the way to break in to the whole scene.

Well, if I don't throw off the numbers with Bert's Addition, then by all means, add me in! Who knows... maybe I'll accidentally do something right?

Send me your email address and I'll send you an invite.
Alright, I'm joined and witty team-named and everything...
The only downside is that, if we keep the current draft day, I'm going to be unavailable. :/

Yup. And they signed some kid named Parkey. I think someone already grabbed him in our league. In fact, I know they did. It was me. Four days ago. BWAHAHAHAHA!!
I'm running away with this season already, catch me if you can
You can't.
You're only 2 points in front of me. 11 in front of Dave, and 1 point in front of "Don't Rush..." You might as well consider yourself caught.
You guys don't know how to football
