    I wouldn't mind paying a small fee... Remember, I'm 17 years old, I'm not exactly rolling in 100$ bills haha

    Absolutely not. I never play fantasy sports for money. Too many variables like injuries and such that are out of my control.

    This is going to stay a free league for now because it is far too hard to organize a money league online.

    If there's still a spot open, I'll take it.

    Anything you do has variables that are out of your control. You must not bet on anything then.

    If this goes money, I'm dropping out. I have a baby on the way and can't afford to be throwing around money, even if I will in 9 months take everyone elses money.

    No, it's not that it has ANY element out of my control, it's that it has way too many that are. If the season was a week long it would be different, but over the course of 6 months too many things can go wrong that I can't really do anything about.

    I like ESPN because it updates live(for free) rather than update the next day which can be annoying.

    Yahoo.

    I'm down to draft during the week provided it starts no earlier then 9. We still have like three sundays until the season starts

    Ok guys.. so i'm an idiot and didn't realize that Yahoo doesn't have an option to have keeper leagues. I thought they added it this year but I guess I was wrong. The league will be set up on ESPN in a bit and info will be pm'd out to everyone.

    Yahoo does allow you to submit keepers first and then have a draft for the other players. In other words, you can definitely run a keeper league at Yahoo.
    As I noted earlier, I haven't played at ESPN so I don't know exactly what can be done there. If anyone could tell me exactly how ESPN's fantasy baseball differs from Yahoo's version, I would appreciate that.

    Also, are you guys going to consider conducting an auction draft? I participated in an auction draft in February and I found it to be great fun. It certainly takes longer than a snake-style draft, though.
