WCG Fantasy Football

Its that time of year again. Time to sign up for some Fantasy Football. We are running through CSBSports this year.

CBSSports.com is offering us a 50% discount on our leagues, meaning each league we create will cost $90. A league will consist of 10 teams, so the cost of to participate comes out to a measly $10 each. After that one is full, I'll batch the next 10 together for the second league, the next 10 for the third league, and so on. When you send in your fee to PayPal, in the memo spot let me know it's for fantasy football, and if you're willing to be a commissioner for a league. For every extra league we create, I'll need one person to be the commissioner.

So why do Fantasy Football through CBSSports? Well, I'll tell you.

Why use a paid league when others a free? Well, for one you'll be supporting SB Nation and BTB, and we are very appreciative of that. Also, CBSSports.com Fantasy Football Commissioner has some cool features.

Multiple draft options including auction drafts
Ability to manage your league and team on your mobile phone

Anybody who wants to join in, please do. I know you can play fantasy for free at plenty of places, but if you want to help us out a little at WCG, want to play with other community members, and experience a great fantasy football product, consider joining a league.

I'd love to participate in a 3rd league

but I’m the commish in one of them already, so I don’t have the time nor the desire to be for another one. When and where do we send the money via Paypal?

No fantasy football for me, distracts from DA BEARS.

Sometimes that's a good thing.

They are free and very customizable.

Sorry for the lack of actual info

I didn’t really have much else I think if you get in the first league, it is free. So I’ll take the first 9 who say Aye to send you an email. If after that point, anybody wants to put together another league, I’ll work out the payment arrangements.
