Thursday Night NFL Begins This Week (Deadline Reminders)

Posted on November 10, 2009 by Post Mortem

Just a friendly reminder.

christian-serratos-nude-peta-01 With the NFL Thursday Night games starting up this week, and continuing through the end of the season, our weekly deadlines change a little bit:

The deadline for Blind Bid Waivers is now 10:00 pm on WEDNESDAY night, with first-come, first-serve waivers beginning at 10:30 pm on Wednesdays.
First-come, first-serve waivers will continue to be allowed up until Noon on Sunday. Any players involved in games occurring prior to that time will be locked at the start of their games. In other words, when the Bear-49er game kicks off this Thursday night, you will not be able to pick up or drop any players from those two teams until next week. Players from all other teams are fair game until noon Sunday, as usual.
This is also the PFFL Trade Deadline — any and all trades must be completed before kickoff on Thursday night (that’s 7:20 pm)

Note: All of these deadlines have been posted on the myFantasyLeague site all season, so hopefully this doesn’t shock anyone.

Finally, Christian Serratos, who is apparently in the Twilight films, would like you not to wear fur.

2009 PFFL Preseason Info [Diane Kruger]

Everyone is paid, we had a great draft and it’s almost time for real football.

diane-kruger-gq-05 Some links you may want to bookmark and/or take action on as you get ready for the season:

http://www9.myfantasyleague.com/2009/home/28966 – this year’s PFFL site on myFantasyLeague. Hopefully this one is not a surprise to you.

http://mflhistory.com/leaguehistory.php?id=12 – the PFFL MFL History site. All the records are here.

If you are in multiple myFantasyLeague leagues and/or you want a more fully-featured live scoring application, you HAVE to check this out. It’s free from MFL and is pretty much all I have open on Sundays. If you already have the GameDay app installed, make sure to go to the Options tab and update the program for 2009 — and then, add your leagues.

http://www.waymorefunner.com/pffl/ – the PFFL Waymorefunner site. The primary things you’ll want to check out on this site:

PFFL Survivor
PFFL Finance Report (note, for those of you with extra money carried over, this report does NOT show that)
Franchise Ratings
Later in the season: Division Races and Wild Card Races

And, of course, be sure to check out this blog throughout the season for previews, recaps, and pictures of hot chicks, like Diane Kruger, who was in Inglorious Basterds.

Site Updates… MFL GameDay…

Posted on September 18, 2007 by Post Mortem

No comments

I’m guessing y’all will enjoy this blog setup more if the links to the articles on the PFFL myFantasyLeague site open in a new window (or tab, depending on your browser setup). So, they now do just that. Plus, if the most recent article includes a picture, you’ll see that too (just like the old days!).

In addition, I updated the links just below the “Latest Posts” section. The Latest Preview/Recap/Txn Article links now direct you to the blog. The PFFL Survivor, Division Race, Wild Card Race and Finances links bring you to the PFFL Waymorefunner site.

Slick, right?

From this blog, you can also:

Comment on blog posts (you have to register on the site first — don’t worry, it’s just us PFFL-ers here)
Subscribe to get an email anytime a new article is posted
Write your own articles if you’d like (you also have to register to do this)

MFL Game Day is a slick little PC-based alternative to MFL’s web-based live scoring. Personally, this is the tool I use to monitor live scoring during the games — mainly because I can setup 7 leagues in it and flip-flop between them at will. Oh, and I love the NFL Game tab. You can download it here

If you want to read more about the tool, go to any myFantasyLeague page, and from the Help menu, select Detailed Help. From the Help page, select How To – Commissioner’s How To Guide – MFL GameDay Live Scoring How To.

Draft Results – Jessica Alba – Firewall Workaround

Posted on August 25, 2007 by Post Mortem

A few random notes following the 11th annual PFFL draft:

Draft results are available on the MFL site: http://football24.myfantasyleague.com/2007/options?L=14230&O=17
Gralewski can’t read
SaaBB drafts better (and faster) when their wives take them out of town
TKD traded up to get Ladainian Tomlinson, then did just about everything in his power to get the team prepared to miss the playoffs. (of course, by typing this I’ve all but guaranteed a Stecklein championship)
Long Wongs repeated their 2006 performance as fantastic draft site, and continues to lack anything remotely like an attractive female customer

If you work for one of those companies that likes to block fantasy football sites, you might want to try accessing our league site this year using this IP-based URL: http://64.73.54.65/2007/home/14230

Jessica Alba has a decent body…I guess (from The Superficial)

It’s official, the 11th Annual PFFL Draft will take place on Friday, August 24th, 2007. We’ll likely get started around 3:00 again and unless they won’t have us back, we’ll return to Long Wong’s.

PFFL Releases 2007 Schedule

Posted on April 16, 2007 by Post Mortem

No comments

With slightly less fanfare than the NFL, PFFL released the official 2007 schedule today.

Week 1 features two 14th meetings: The Jedi Masters vs SaaBB and SIAP vs The Hip. Also on tap is the 10th WBM vs Turd matchup.

In week 2, Turd and The Hip meet for the 10th time, WBM and SIAP meet for a 13th go round and The Jedi Masters and Post Mortem play game #16 in their rivalry.

Week 3 leads off with the first ever matchup between SaaBB and Camel Toe, and also includes the first regular season meeting between The Jedis and Double D since 2005.

CSPJ and SaaBB will play in week 4, they last met in 2005. It’s also the first of two meetings between the Jedis and TKD, as well as the 15th ever game between Hedfullalicker and Post Mortem.

In week 5, Post Mortem and Winning Beer Money meet for the first time since 2005, and only the 8th time in their 10 years of joint league play.

Week 6 is the first ever meeting between Camel Toe and DDT.

Week 7 features the first game between Turd Ferguson and The Jedi Masters since week 6 of the 2004 season.

SaaBB and The Hip meet for the 16th time in week 8, while CSPJ plays DDT for the first time since 2005. Most shockingly of all, Tappa Kegga Day will play SIAP for the thirteenth time in the 11-year history of their rivalry, but the first time since 2002!

In week 9, SIAP tries to 6-0 against Kramerica, meeting for the first time since 2004.

Week 10 brings us the first Double D – WBM meeting since 2005 and Hedfullalicker’s first game against SIAP since 2001!

Weeks 11-13 feature division matchups.

In week 14, Kramerica takes on The Hip for the first time since 2005, while Camel Toe and Post Mortem square off for the first time.

2007 Division Assignments and Draft Order

Posted on January 14, 2007 by Post Mortem

No comments

Yesterday’s postseason party featured a first-ever event as division assignments and draft order for next season were determined (typically, those drawings occur at the competition committee meeting).

Division Assignments are posted here
Some highlights:

The East includes four teams who missed the 2006 playoffs and the #8 seeded DDT
The Central includes The Hip and SIAP, the only two two-time champs in league history, and the 2006 champs, Winning Beer Money
The West features all three division champions from 2006 – and five of five playoff teams

The Draft Order is posted here (and the First Round Pick Selection is live here).

Double D earned the right to pick their first round spot first and may have celebrated this fact more than any team in PFFL history
Per league bylaws, Hedfullalicker received the 14th spot in the first round selection order (but bucking recent trends, will pick early in rounds 3 and 7)
Defending champs Winning Beer Money have the first pick in round 15, and therefore the final pick in round 16, and will be drafting the 2007 Mr Irrelevant

Welcome to the PFFL Blog

Posted on January 6, 2007 by Post Mortem

Wanna know why PFFL is getting a blog? Well, here are some reasons:

The preview, recap and transaction articles that I create now are pretty “blog-like”, except they are created in an interface that I built from scratch. That’s great, but silly.
You can register and comment on articles now
There is room for posts that don’t fit into the preview/recap/transaction article structure (say, great links found throughout the week)
It’ll be easier to post pictures of and links to pictures of hot chicks, a PFFL staple
YOU can even create articles here. You just have to register first and I’ll up your authority to ‘author’ status
If you use an RSS reader (Google Reader is just about perfect), you can subscribe to a feed of posts and/or comments
PFFL-related (or unrelated) articles can be posted year-round, not just during the season

What do you think?

(and yeah, this is a good time to try out that whole ‘registering’ and then ‘commenting’ stuff that I talked about above)
