Here's one more, and I think (hopefully) the last one.

We played this last year: Salary Cap Football (ESPN Gridiron Challenge). Works the same way as baseball: Pick a team, but stay under the salary cap.

But watch out for your player's bye weeks. Values go up every week for the good players; Lock a guy in at a low price, but if you drop him for his bye week he will be a lot more expensive to get back the next week.

On the other hand, though, if you keep him you don't get any points for him that week.

Anyway, here's the link:

Salary cap football? That means we all can have the same players. They'll be no one calling each other thieves, bargaining for that last uninjured playing, no one screaming 'cause someone got their hands on your Johnson first.

What's the fun in that?

So when are you gonna join?

I have to see if I can pull up the site at work. They've got blocks on these kinds of things.

It tells you to log in to get to the sign up page, but I don't know where that is? Is it because the site is still down?

The sign in form should be way up on the top right of the page.

I hit the sign in button on the top right of page and I get directed to this page. Then what.

Everything's working fine for me, so I don't know...

If you use the link I provided, you should get directed to the game home page, with the sign in form in the upper right.

And the game is working now; I was able to make selections.

That's what I have.

But it directs me to that other link I posted.

Oh well. I guess one fantasy at a time is all I can handle anyway.

When you are on the home page, you don't see the sign in form, or you get that other thing after signing in?

Do you see a thing to click on to sign out? try that, and thensee if you get the sign in form.

I see no form. Copy and paste the screen that I should see.

Didn't work. maybe JG can do a screenshot; I don't know how.

I'm just gonna try to create a new account and see if that works. I forget what account names I have for ESPN vs. Yahoo.

EDIT: I created a new account and it worked. Damn, I've never worked so hard to get into anything in my life.

There was this girl once that I worked pretty hard to get....

Never mind. :rolleyes:

So much for your UBER Points. :p

Whatever they are. :rolleyes:

UBER this . :p

I think everything I've done has been in Yahoo. Do those Uber points count in ESPN?

Did she know the man named Enis?

You were in baseball and basketball, weren't you? Those were ESPN.

Yahoo doesn't have Uber points, BTW (whatever they are).

As poorly as I've played starting from zero probably wouldn't make that much of a difference.

I stunk at this last year.

Good. Play so that I'll have some company.

Geez, the site has me listed last already. I guess they figured they just save time.

But we're both joint top of the league. Maybe they should end the season now. We'd all be winners.

Ok, I signed up.

These starting salaries suck!! :rolleyes:

Imagine what they're gonna be in week 9. Kyle Boller might be looking mighty good by then.

Here comes this argument again....

If the salaries weren't so high, we'd all have Manning and McNabb or Culpepper, Tomlinson and McCallister or Holmes, Owens and Harrison or Holt or Horn......

The higher the cap values are, the more "lesser" players you have to pick. You have to decide if you want 2 or 3 of the really bigh stars (and which ones) and some 3rd level guys, or all second level guys.

More skill involved.

I thought the starting salaries were lower than expected. I managed to get stars at all the positions.
