    I know this is early. Was just wondering if anyone would be interested in starting up a franchise fantasy football league

    I'm not entirely sure what that is....like a dynasty league where we keep the same teams going over numerous seasons?

    Yeah, actually, that'd be cool. Something different.


  • Registered Users Posts: 442 ✭✭Mr_Man2121


    8+ people would be the goal but we still have 5 months left

    what site do you use?

    id be interested if on nfl.com


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,333 ✭✭✭brinty


    Hi all, so is this effectively a dynasty league? I'm not in one with anyone of you so this would be fun. What platform are you thinking of using? NFL, ESPN, Fleaflicker, MFL or Yahoo? Used most of them already so i'm familiar with them. Would this be an IDP league? I'm a fan they're more immersive than just a D unit. Would you use the groupme app for banter and chats or would that be out?


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,858 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Keen if it's on nfl.com


  • Registered Users Posts: 111 ✭✭BarryC21


    NFL.com for me. Not sure about IDP in a dynasty league. Was in an IDP league last year and they’re a bit more work, not sure it’s worth it.

    Most people seem to want NFL.com. didn't even think about fleaflicker. It Would be an IDP league

    Pretty sure there's no IDP on NFL unless it's changed recently.

    I was in an IDP league there on NFL.com last year, worked pretty well!

    If we're up to 10 people, should we form the league now or try to get to 12? I think I might know somebody interested...

    EDIT: By Max player limit I mean the amount of teams (amount of boards.ie players)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,333 ✭✭✭brinty


    Is that the number of players from boards or overall players on rosters.
    I voted for 12

    All sounds good to me! Just voted there thanks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 123 ✭✭DM1292


    I've voted 16. It's a dynasty league, meaning it'll be full of youthful talent so players will have good and bad years. I honestly don't mind how many there are though.

    Listen, I'm not as much of a boards user as I once was, I only ever really use it to communicate with people about the NFL and anyway. So, going forward I'm sorry if I'm late to reply, I'm still interested of course. I'll be sure to keep checking in.

    No problem. We won't be starting for 3-4 months anyway
