**Vanity** Freeper Fantasy Hockey anyone??

Posted on 09/13/2007 8:40:48 AM PDT by freedombird

Freeper Fantasy Hockey anyone?? It's FREE!...and fun!!!

I did this a couple of seasons ago with other freepers and it was a blast! Missed a couple seasons because of deployment, but I am ready to make another Freeper leauge if anyone is interested.

It would be a Head to Head league on Yahoo!, with playoffs at the end of the season. Probably an auto draft, as it would be difficult to get everyone on the same schedule.

Ping this thread or send me mail if you are interested.

Should be fun!!

I'm a civvie embedded with the military on a mission mentoring Iraqi government officials. I'm posted at a small FOB in central Baghdad.

I have season tickets to the Houston Texans and this will be my fourth year of getting to see one, maybe two games, depending on when I take leave.

Where were you?

And a heartfelt THANK YOU for your service!

I played last time, and I’ll give it another shot even though I haven’t kept up much. Just let me know what I need to do.

I was at Camp Adder/Tallil. Missed Hockey so much there, I helped start a floor hockey league there. We made boards and and everything.....was fun!!

If you have access to a computer on a fairly regular basis....you should give this a shot.....you can set your lineups weeks in advance.....plus it will not be a live draft......just set your draft choices and let the computer do the rest.....

Anyway...think about it...looks like we will have a good league.

I haven’t done this in a while, but I’m thinking I’ll take part this year. Do I need to sign up, or are you collecting names and signing us up as a group?

I would love to do it, but I think this requires a high degree of maintenance, and I’m sure I’ll let things go and suck throughout the season...
