The International Fantasy League is looking for owners!
The league actually started in 2002, but will be re-emerging in 2007 after a 5 year hiatus.
Our goal is to have a fantasy league with international bragging rights on the line. One week you could be whopping England, the other Russia, and the third Japan...or you may be losing to France if you don't make that vital trade with Italy!
In this league, we will try to combine national pride with a pretty good fantasy football setup to the enjoyment of everyone involved. Hopefully this is something you want to take part in, representing your country.
As if bragging rights weren't enough, there is a reward to those who excel too. The playoff champ gets $1000, and the total points champ gets $500. And there's plenty of other ways to increase your winnings, including a weekly prize for the highest score.
We'll have one owner representing each country / state. Countries for all nations outside the U.S. and Canada; states for the U.S and possibly Canada (depending on interest).
The league will potentially be divided into four conferences with 12 teams each. Each with their separate drafts and separate player pools. The top 4 teams from each conference goes on to the winner's bracket of the playoffs, which will conclude in our very own World Bowl!
5 years ago we were playing on Yahoo!, but this time around we can be found on RTSports.com:
You can view the league setup by going to http://www.rtsports.com and logging in with username IFL2007 and password welcome.
As you can see there, we're a redraft league.
The draft(s) will be held on the weekend of 1st-2nd of September at 8:00 AM CEST and 2 PM CEST.
Team names will be the names of the countries/states. No nicknames or similar. It'll look like this:
Oregon 12 - California 22
Belgium 0 - Austria 50
Switzerland 12 - Germany 22
and so on
You can contact me on silencer@tnfj.com if this sounds interesting to you. Please remember to include which country you would be interested in representing
