Getting Started |
Ownership Owning
and operating a fantasy football team will greatly enhance your football viewing
pleasure. Rooting for your players and against your opponents adds an extra
dimension to every game. Just as with all sports leagues, there are fees involved.
At the beginning of each season you will purchase a franchise for the modest sum of
$25.00. In addition you will pay a $5.00 fee to the commissioner which pays for time
and materials involved in running the and league and extravagant business trips. Now
for you Mensa kids that is a grand total of $30.00 due on the day of the draft.

Team Name The name of your team is a direct reflection on you. On the day of
the draft you will provide the commissioner with your team name. Failure to do so
will result in a name being assigned to you by the commissioner's wife.

League Format The C.P.F.F.L will consist of 10 teams. These teams will be
split into 2 divisions ( The Bundy's and the Simpson's). Each team will play a 14
game schedule beginning the first week of the regular season. At the end of this 14
weeks the top 2 teams from each division will advance to the playoffs. Ties for
playoff position will be as follows:
1. Head to head record
2. Total points scored during the season
3. Divisional record
4. Coin Toss
Week 1 of the playoffs the #1 seed will play the #4 seed and the
#2 seed will play the #3 seed. The winners of these games will advance to the
championship game and the losers will play for third place. The top three finishers
will receive payment based on the total of franchise fees ($25 x 10 = $250) plus the total
of all transaction fees. Prizes will be paid out as follows:
First Place 75%
Second Place 15%
Third Place 10%
Fourth Place A towel for crying
The last place team in each division will play each other in the
Toilet Bowl during the first week of the playoffs. The loser of this game will be
responsible for providing the snacks at next years draft. We are very lucky to be
having our menu provided by the same team for the second year in a row.

The Draft Now that you have bought your franchise, you and the other nine owners
must stock your rosters. The drafting of players will occur on a pre-set date at a
pre-set location. Prior to the draft a drawing will be held to determine draft
order. You may trade your draft picks with other owners by round (not entire draft
position as this determines division seding). There is no charge for the trading of
draft picks. The team drawing the first draft position will choose first in the
first round. The draft order will be reversed in even numbered rounds with the team
which drew draft position number ten drafting first. The draft will consist of
sixteen rounds. At the end of the draft each owner must be able to field a starting
line up as follows:
1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D/SP
You may draft any combination of players you wish as long as you
can field a starting line up at the end, it is wise to draft ample backup players as
injuries always play a role in a teams success. It is up to you to identify players
bye weeks and draft accordingly.

Weekly Line Up Prior to game time each week you are required to submit the players from
your roster that you wish to have your scoring based on. This will consist of 1 QB,
2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D/SP. In addition you will provide the commissioner with
how many points you think your team will score for the week. In the event of a tie
score, the team which guesses the closest (the difference between estimated points and
actual points) to it's actual point total will win. If this does not produce a
winner, the team which did not go over their estimated points will win. In the
event that this does not produce a winner, the win will be awarded by coin toss to be
performed by the commissioner and co-commissioner. Line ups containing players whose
teams are playing on Sunday or Monday are due by game time on Sunday. In the event
you have a player playing in a game on a day other than Sunday or Monday, you must submit
that players name to the commissioner by game time (just the player involved), along with
your points guess for the week. This prevents any unfair advantages. You may
make changes to your submitted line up up until game time.
Failure to submit a line up prior to game time will result
in your previous weeks being used regardless of injuries or bye weeks. The point of
fantasy football is participation.
