Look Boss! Dee Plane! Dee Plane!

Weee! Fantasy football is fun. Fellas, you don't need to know a lot about football to play fantasy football. The game auto-drafts you a team and all you have to do is change your starting lineup each week according to who you think might do better (against a crappy team, for example). It comes with plenty of helper notes and is really quite kick back. Additionally, it's a fun way to get to know and follow players you may not have otherwise paid any attention to.

If I may make a few suggestions as to league settings?

I've only done this for a few years now, but there are definately some settings that seem to make this whole thing easier for everyone and a lot more balanced so that any one player type can't dominate the entire league.

If I may suggest changing the lineups as follows:
Starting:
1QB
2RB
3WR
1TE
1 K
1 DEF (team defense)

With maybe 7 bench positions?

On Scoring:
QB touchdowns, 4 points.
Yards per point (rushing/receiving), 15 yards.

Regarding scoring "type", I think the head-to-head weekly matchups are more fun as it's a little more like a "real" football game being played each week, but I'm up for whatever everyone else wants to do.


On the Passion of the Baby-J:

I'm afraid I'm with R-man on this one. Mel Gibson is a paranoid, twitchy crazy ass with a bone to pick with the evil Jews. I've always found that particularly oft-repeated line a bit funny, though. "The Jews killed and persecuted Jesus!" As if the guy wasn't a JEW himself. It would be more accurate to say that neo-Roman sympathizers co-conspired to end a perceived threat to their cushy established government jobs. But, that's not quite as emotionally rewarding and not nearly as strong of a lightning rod for a call to arms.
