KarateForums.com Fantasy NFL 2008: Join Now!

[Patrick]

Hello,

Thank you for visiting KarateForums.com.

At the suggestion of Ed (KarateEd), we've decided to try a KarateForums.com fantasy football league. It's a little close to the season, but we're going to give it a shot, anyway, and see how it goes. Team registration is now open.

The draft will take place on Sunday, August 31 at 5:15 PM ET. If you would like to join and cannot make the draft, that's perfectly fine. Your team will be auto drafted or you can pre-rank a list, if you would like.

There are two requirements for you to be able to join, so please ensure that you meet both of them:

1. You must post on this thread that you are joining.

2. The name of your team in the Yahoo! league should be exactly the same as your KarateForums.com username, so that everyone can tell who you are at the Yahoo! site. So, if your username here is "Patrick", your team name would be "Patrick". If your username is "KarateEd", your team name would be "KarateEd".

If either of these requirements are not fulfilled, your team may be deleted from the league.

With that out of the way, here are the instructions for joining, if this is your first Yahoo! fantasy football league this season. If you already have a team at Yahoo!, you can skip steps 1-3 and, once signed in, select the "Get Another Team" link under the "Football '08" menu at the top of http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com.

1. Go to http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com.

2. Sign in to your Yahoo! account, if you are not already. Go back to http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com.

3. In the right menu, under "Football '08," click the blue "Join a League" button.

4. On the left side, click the "Join Custom" button.

5. Enter 492357 as the league ID, kf as the password and press "Save & Continue".

6. Enter your KarateForums.com username as your team name, set the other options as you desire and click "Save & Continue".

7. Review the information to ensure it is accurate, select the check box next to "I have read and agree to the Fantasy Football Terms of Service" and press "Register Now".

That's it - you're in!

We are looking for at least 8 or 10 teams. If we don't receive at least that many, we may opt to cancel the league.

Excellent. Welcome.

[Patrick]

Unfortunately, we have not received enough interest to allow the league to draft (the draft was scheduled for today). So, I have gone ahead and deleted the league.

Thank you to those who expressed interest. I'm sorry that we were not able to go forward with it.

Thanks,

Patrick
