Q. Why is my draft freezing/kicking me out?
In order to experience a successful live draft,
we ask that you please test your computer to make
sure the java applet loaded properly on your machine
prior to the draft process. The link can be found
from your league homepage. We also ask that you
please lower or disable your anti-virus and/or
firewall security settings. Once you complete your
draft, you will be able to return the settings back
to normal. If you do not have the latest java applet
loaded you may still participate using our HTML lite
draft.
Q. I drafted a team but now I can't find it. What
happened to it?
First make sure you are logged in as you will
only be able to see your teams when under your

draft lobby, your results will be sent to you via
email, but will not be saved anywhere else.
Q. How do I invite friends to my league?

click on members from the league home page and
assign a team by inputting the name and email
address in the appropriate slots. The invite will go
out when you hit the submit button.
Q. How can I activate my league from last year?
In order to activate last year's customizable
league, the league manager will need to access the
Fantasy Football Frontpage. From here, you'll be
able to activate your league. There is a section
called Reactivate your '06 league.
Q. How do I find my friends league?
If the league is a public standard league, you
could search for it in the League Directory.
Otherwise, the LM of that league would have to
invite you.
Q. How can I change my draft date?
To change the draft date in a custom league the
LM can go to settings from the league home page and
click on draft settings. From there the LM can
change the draft to any date/time that is open for
drafting. In a standard league, team owners will
need to vote in the league referenda.
Q. How do I propose a trade?
Trades can be proposed to any team before the
trading deadline. To propose a trade, you first have
to visit the clubhouse of the team you wish to trade
with and then click on the propose trade link. You
will then be able to select the check boxes to
include players from both sides.
Q. How do I trade draft picks?
To trade draft picks, draft pick trading must be
enabled by the LM. If draft pick trading is enabled
and you still cannot propose draft pick trades,
please check to see if the keeper deadline has been
reached, as no draft pick trades can occur after
this deadline.
Q. Will 2007 Fantasy Football leagues still use
Sports Geek
default league settings? Will there be Sports Geek trade
reviews and the investigation of collusion?
Yes, all of these features and more will be
included when joining a Standard League. League
settings such as league setup, scoring and playoffs
are pre-determined. All you will have to do is setup
your team, draft and play. If you were looking for
more user options, please try our Customizable
Leagues. Here, you will be able to determine which
scoring options you would like to use and how many
roster spots your team is to use. There are numerous
features that can be customized to your liking.
Q. Concerning free Fantasy Football, can I be placed
in a league with random users?
Yes, you can play for free and be placed in a
public league with other random users. You will have
the option to either create your own league or join
a public/private group. All standard leagues will
utilize a 10-team alignment while using the
Performance Scoring method.
Q. Is the draft lobby still available?
For teams that just want to join a league to be
drafted as soon as possible, we will have a draft
waiting room where you can jump into a league.
Another option would be to join a league from the
league directory with the settings and draft type
that you would like.
Q. What happens to our draft list if our LM changes
the universe in our league?
Once the player universe is changed in
customizable leagues, all of the draft lists are
reset to reflect the new universe. The team owners
will need to go back and make the necessary changes.
Q. Is there a limit to how many free leagues I am
able to create?
Yes, you will be able to create 10 free leagues
to use for this season. Just please keep in mind,
joining free leagues will not make you eligible to
win prizes.
Q. Is it possible to participate in a NFL Style
Draft rather than a Snake Draft in customizable
leagues?
Yes, the league manager will need to turn on
Draft Pick Trading in their LM Tools. Then the teams
will need to manually trade the necessary draft
picks to the correct teams. Also, league managers
will be able to manually make all of the trades
themselves by utilizing the Edit Rosters feature in
LM Tools.
Q. What happens if I add new teams to a keeper
league? How will their draft work?
A keeper league draft will vary on how many
keepers your league manager set to keep for the
upcoming season. For example, if the league is set
to keep three players, there will be three keeper
rounds. These picks will take place in the first
three rounds of the draft. The picks will be
auto-selected automatically when the team is slated
to pick. For all new teams, the owner would receive a pick in
each of these three rounds. They would be able to
choose from the available player pool. These include
all players not being used as keepers on other
teams. Please keep in mind the keeper rounds do not
use a snake-style draft format.
Q. How do I set up my schedule to play my division
opponents twice and everybody else once?
In order to implement a schedule where you would
play divisional foes twice and all other teams in
the league once, you would need to fall under one of
the following categories: 12 Teams, 2 Divisions in a 16 week season
10 Teams, 2 Divisions in a 13 week season
8 Teams, 2 Divisions in a 10 week season Note: If you have an unequal division size in your
league, the schedule will not have a preference
toward in-divisional play.
Q. What happens if we draft after the season starts
in a customizable league?
Leagues drafting after the season begins will
have results that includes play up until that point.
If an LM wishes to ignore the results, he/she would
need to schedule the first X weeks as byes for all
teams.
Q. Why did my Standard League not draft at the
scheduled time?
In Standard Leagues, the draft will only take
place once all 10 owners have joined. To set a new
draft date/time, league members must vote in the
league referenda. Please keep in mind that you will
need at least 6 votes for each option for the change
to be made.
Q. Why are defensive touchdowns affecting my
Defense/Special Team points? The points were not
scored against my defense.
The rule is team points and any points against
will be deducted from the team. This is standard
practice. At this time, we are not able to change
the way the system awards points.
Q. When do players unlock?
All players will unlock early Tuesday morning .
The players will then be available through free
agency or waivers depending on your specific league
settings.
