[idea] Daily Fantasy Football

I really like our NFL Picks competition we have. I would like to expand this to a Daily Fantasy Football. The concept (if you're not familiar) is you get a salary (e.g. $60,000) that you get to spend on QB, RB, WR, TE, D, etc ... and you have to stay within budget.

Draft Kings and FleaFlicker have something like this. BUT, I want to have it for our members. It would be FREE, no charge. Just a Weekly football competition.

Anyone have interest in this or nah?

The government goes over budget without any repercussions....and the broncos go over budget and get to back to back superbowls....so why should I have to follow a budget in this?

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

The concept sounds interesting, but I'd like more information.

When would a new season begin for this new fantasy game ?
Is there an auction Draft and does one season carry over to the next? Do players have a chance at a fresh start each year?
Who would be the commissioner Zero, you ?
You say free, but some leagues ask a small fee to finance the champions trophies, will this apply here?
I understand the time required to run/play in a standard fantasy league. This sounds more time demanding and while some will keep up the work required, others WILL find it more than they bargained for and desert when your not looking. Who would step in and run that/these abandoned teams?
Is there a way to observe another similar league of this type league in progress?

No YAYS or NAYS, just would like more information. Thank you.

I'm in.

Never have done one like this.
Would be good experience if I ever wanted to spend a little money online.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Here's an example of what it would look like.

We would all sign up to a website similar to how you already do for Fantasy Football e.g. ESPN, FleaFlicker, Yahoo, etc ... except this would be for daily fantasy football.

No money would ever be involved. No fees, nothing.

In the perfect world, we have 17 weeks of winners and the person with the most wins at the end of the season gets named Champion. Just like we do for NFL Picks and FleaFlicker.
