Is there still the same level of interest as last year for a Balloon Juice league?

Sure. I ain’t gay but what the he’ll,
El Tiburon
The hell. Hate predictive typing,
Neal
While I generally just lurk around here and don’t contribute much, I’d be up for it.
Jude
I’d feel fine whipping your punk asses in a 12-team league. If any of you think you can step to the Rex Ryan of fantasy football coaches.
[Door flies open]….
fhtagn
Jude – putting your best foot forward, eh? I fear though that defeat is all that awaits you.
Bill Gorski
Lets do this! I am not scared! You guys should be though!
Trinity
YES
Ira-NY
Yes.
Wick
I would be happy to play again.
Morbo
I will DESTROY you.
John
Sure^
Proudhon
Yes!
PonB
I’m in…
Davo
ditto.
booferama
I’d love to win one of these leagues again.

I’d join, but you all should know if you invite me, I will win. I’m a Fantasy Savant. :)

As much as I LOOOOOVVVEEE me some football, I have found in the past that fantasy teams just take too much time to manage, and make me focus on players rather than teams. (I also tend to miss the draft for them and just get leftovers.)
But I’ve been thinking of getting into one, and this place seems like a good one to give ‘er another shot.
So, yeah, count me inski.
After all, you’ll need someone to get their ass kicked each week, and I’m just the guy.
reflectionephemeral
I’m in! (If there’s space enough).
General Stuck
Wake up the rubber chickens!
Free Range Steve
I’d be interested. Yes please.

@Mark D:
ditto
Mr Stagger Lee
Mr Stagger Lee has his hoody, his Dan Snyder glasses, the OchoCincho jersey, and Jerry Jones plastic surgery, yeah I’m In!
Mark D
Oh, and we’ll need to have the draft on, like, a Saturday night.
Or do people around here actually have lives and stuff?
Campionrules
Hell yes. I’m already in one of the GOS leagues. Need some ballon juicers to beat up on though.
Timothy Jaxon
Yeah – missed getting into the leagues last year due to extended travel, would love to mix it up this time around.

@Jude:
I personally am the Bill Belichick of FFL coaches and will be glad to participate and separate all you Jets and Steelers fans from your delusions.
2liberal
@Mark D:
I once ran a league where one of the participants postponed a business trip to be able to be there for the live draft. That is the correct attitude towards FFL drafting.

@2liberal – I the grungy hoodie look works for everyone, right? I’m mostly a lurker here, but would definitely be up for some fantasy football.
Parrotlover77
Yes. H2H this year please!
Americanadian
I usually just lurk and read, but this is compelling me to come forth from the woodwork. Either that, or I need something to distract me from the aftermath of last season’s Ragnarok-on-the-Mississippi.
danimal
I could be some more cannon fodder for the league. I’m real good at picking which players are going to get injured on a weekly basis.
But the Chargers are winning the Super Bowl this year, so that’ll ease my pain.
Derf
LOL! Now why am I not surprised Cole is interested in a sports hobby completely detached from reality. Like all his other interests.
Ha! This place never fails to underwhelm me.
Jude
Jesus, who trolls a fantasy football post? GET A GODDAMNED HOBBY, YOU.
Also, 2liberal, if you’re the Bill Belicheck of the fantasy football world, does that mean that you go for 47-year-old women in stretch pants?

Sexual obsession is a dangerous ugly mistress.
Fucen Pneumatic Fuck Wrench Tarmal
i’ll play. lets have one of them(judging by responses it might be several) be an auction draft. i love pimp slapping fools with the invisible hand of the market. snake drafts are protectionist.
SadOldVet
Sounds interesting…
Can I nominate Ben Roethlisberger now for MVR?
MVR = Most Valuable Rapist
Which NFL player should I nominate as MVM-gawi?
MVM-gawi = Most Valuable Murderer – got away with it
Fucen Pneumatic Fuck Wrench Tarmal
@SadOldVet:
and merely by being a sad old vet, can i nominate you for baby-killer,and ass-licking lackey of genocidal maniacs. it makes as much sense, just staying with popular and ill-informed perceptions as you are wont to do.
Tenderloin Crook
It’s called distraction, Derf. You should try it. You seem very uptight.
I would love to be a part of Baloon Juice’s Fantasy League. I’ll stay out of the auction draft. Too confining
SadOldVet
@Fucen:
Not completely sure one way or the other about the baby-killer..
As a 20 year old draftee in 1969, it was more about staying alive and keeping those around me alive than anything remotely related to ass-licking lackies of genocidal maniacs. It was much later that I became aware of the genocidal maniac Kissinger personality.

@SadOldVet:
wah wah, don’t don’t bore me with the details, you certainly aren’t interested in them, when you start flinging shit.

@2liberal:
Count me out. I don’t play with cheaters.

@Jude:
that would actually be several steps up in life. anyway, what do you have against bb finding age-appropriate companionship? Should he be going for a newt-gingrich approved trophy wife? or molesting the female help like o’reilly?
D
I’m the Charlie Sheen of FFL… duh…winning!
Can we please have an autodraft?
2liberal
@Just Some Fuckhead:
Don’t be so bitter. The patriots will have a good year this year. Everyone else was doing the same things anyway.
Rob
Absolutely!!!
Crusty Dem
Yes. And I will NOT be using the automatic draft this year. Fucking Kevin Kolb.
Bludger
I’m in!
redshirt
@Just Some Fuckhead: You mean winners, right?
Salmonloaf
I’m down as well.
meanie greenies
YES! Meanie Greenies is here to defend her title! Where do i sign up? It was Yahoo last year and someone very kind served as commissioner.
Groucho48
I’d be happy to join up.
Jude
@2liberal: Nah, I just like the idea of him cougar-hunting in a hoodie. I got nothin’ against the Pats. Or, really, any team. I just like the damn games.
Moonbatting Average
@Jude: Slaps Jude on the ass, HARD
/not enough people ’round these parts read KSK, apparently
Legalize
I’d play. I’ve got another league but can handle another.
Jude
@Moonbatting Average
Ow!
/No, they don’t. Buncha chumps.
Stefan
I wouldn’t mind a sexual fantasy football league…
Just Some Fuckhead
@2liberal:
Weird, I must have missed the NFL levying huge fines on everyone else.
spavogt
absolutely!
Glorfarion
I was in it last year and it was a blast. Let’s do it again!
