South Side Premier League Fantasy Football Invite
I have a sense that there are some number of us who are afflicted with the European malady of caring about football (the real kind) and the English Premier League. I thought it might be fun to set up a private Friends League to play fantasy football for the coming Premier League season. The Guardian has set up pretty good looking game that is free to enter and looks a step more sophisticated than the traditional "goals and clean sheets" kind of thing. It rewards crosses, tackles, interceptions and bunch of other stats that make roster decisions more interesting.

The league I set up is named South Side Sox and the password is ozzie.
Anyway, if you have any interest in "soccer" at all, check it out. I know that, for me, having a reason to pay attention to the fixtures on a weekly basis focuses my interest and has helped me get a handle on the game.
I look forward to playing with you.

I'm in as well
I dig the no more than 3 players per club rule. No stocking up on a mid-table team just because they may have a run of relegation candidates in a row.

For the American chaps
Is there interest in a (NFL) fantasy football league? Monetary compensation probably couldn’t work, but it would be fun to see colin do BUOs on Rex Grossman.

colin? that's a job for kenwo!
The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

Getting it together in mid-August seems more logical
Just to give way to eventual season ending ACL injuries and whatnot.

how many do you want to sign up before it's a goer?
I reckon you need at least 10 to make it interesting

I'll give it a go.
I don’t want to mess it up for anyone else by being too terrible. But…
The Twins are not good, please stop posting their score.

Okay, I lied.
I can’t commit to following nine months of a league I can’t even watch. Sorry guys.
