I will start.
My name is Neil. I am 33. Married with 2 kids.
Currently living in the Main Line Suburbs.
I am a physician and I work in center city.
I have been playing fantasy football since 1989. Eagles fan since I was born.
I am looking forward to meeting everyone.
I hope this league will be a competitve league with knowledge owners that will be around for a long time.
My name is Andrew. I am 32. Married with 1 kid.
I live in Mays Landing, NJ (by the shore).
I need a good physician, therapist & mechanic.
I've been playing fantasy games

for many years now. Also an Eagles fan since childhood, but it seems I've surrounded myself with friends who are Cowboys & Giants fans, odd!
To clarify as I have been asked several times... I'm not the commish of this thing, I'm just the guy who posted it on Footballguys.com last year because I wanted to be involved in a face to face draft league that took more skill than the avg league. Hope we can work it out & get it started.
EDIT: I am now commish for some odd reason, but I'll do my best to get this thing going. With Neil & Drew Carter as co-commish, i'm sure it will be all good.
My name is Bob. I'm 39, single living in Hatboro, PA (Eastern Montgomery County). I'm an architect & been playing FF since 1999 or 2000. Always active in all of my leagues.
Grew up in the philly area and while the hometown Sixers & Flyers are my teams, the Cowboys are my NFL team. baseball usually bores me to no end, but if i had to pick a team it would have to be whatever team Pujols is on.
Similar to Andrew a live draft with some sort of semi-keeper league would appeal to me. I realize it may get too complicated for some, but i'm a fan of contract/salary leagues if they are structured to keep the free agent pool fresh so even the worst teams have ways of rebuilding from year to year. I've never done IDP or auction but willing to try.
I enjoy trash talking if those who dish it out are just as able to take it in stride (if ya know what i mean).
My name is Rob I'm married with 2 kids living in BenSalem right now but because of work I am moving closer to Wildwood but I travel back and forth especially in the winter time. I am very active in the winter because I only work 3 days a week but from May to August I'm limited to weekends and maybe a night or two but I will always respond to emails and will answer back all messages.
I grew up in Philadelphia but because of the military I have been living all over the country until 5 years ago when I got out. I'm a Sixers, Flyers and Eagles fans but I can't really follow hockey at all.
I will do almost any type of league but I prefer Dynasty and hopefully some kind of cap but it will depend on how much time a commish is willing to put into it.
I am available for August 20th but hopefully we can get together a lot sooner to pan out these rules
My name is Jason .I am 40 .Married with 2 kids.
I currently live in Washington Township N. J.
I am a sales rep for Kraft Foods Frozen Pizza Division. Digiorno anyone?
I have been playing FFB since 1990,yes the same season our Great Giants won the Super Bowl.
I am open to any type of format as long as I feel it will work for me.Does that sound right without being self centered? I don't know? Create the rules and they will follow.

Brian, 41, married w/ 1 kid from Florence, NJ (just south of Trenton). I've been playing fantasy football, since 97. I'm a Geologist with the NJ State Department of Environmental Protection.
I'm a Dolphins fan, although I follow the Eagles as well.
I'll try any format. I've done regular and auction drafts as well as non-keeper and keeper leagues. The only format I haven't tried is a dynasty league.

My name is Scott and I am married with 2 kids (18 & 16) and 5 adopted Greyhounds. I've been playing Fantasy football for around 13 years now and Bleed green through and through. I am Director of an International Sales force for a Scientific Database company.
I haven't been part of any of the conversations recently but Neil has asked me to partner with him in this league. Of course if there aren't enough owners for 12 to 16 teams I'd likely be willing to take on my own team for the betterment of the league.
I'd love to see an IDP Dynasty league but don't expect that with this league (though it is my favorite league to play in). I look forward to getting together and hashing out the rules.

I'm Charlie,
I'm 39 and I live in Merchantville, NJ (near the Cherry Hill Mall). I am married with 2 kids(B10, G6).
I have been playing in and running fantasy football leagues for about 15 years. My current main league that
I run is a 10 player redraft and it's memebers are mostly comprised of a bunch of my childhood friends that grew up together in Northeast Philly. It is a fun and competitive league but I am looking for a change or another league to compliment that one.
I am an Eagles fan, and have always been one and I can't stand Michael Vick !
It will be interesting playing against a bunch of guys whom I don't know, in our league we all know who is a "trader" who is a "keeper" who always makes dumb offers, ect... It will be cool to go in fresh and try to build a team. I personally have always wanted to play in a dynasty auction legue, but it really doesn't matter to me. I would like to have this league carry on yearly and have some kind of "Keeper" aspect
i.e. Keep up to "X" amount of players and give up equivelent draft picks.

Hey, my name is Kurt, I am 21 and this fall I will be a senior at SJU, I am from Baltimore - I bleed Purple and Black through and through, I honestly believe Ray Lewis is innocent, and I hate the steelers more than should be legally allowable. This will be my 10th season of fantasy football, and I see a lot of potential in this league since its local and from what I've read everyone seems like they'll be extremely active and fiercely competitive. As for rules, I hope this league will be a keeper league or a dynasty league, because that way more of a long term strategy comes into play.
Mark, 41, married, 2 girls (4 & 3)
Been playing ff for 15 years.
Favorite team is Chargers and has always been.
So obsessed with ff, I decided to start my own site to run public league a few years ago. Now I can't pay attention to football in off-season due to burn-out but I get it back quickly out of necessity by July.
Never did an auction league but it's about time. Thanks for the invite.

My name is Erik. I'm 36, divorced, no kids, but with a serious girlfriend that I expect to propose to soon.
I grew up in Wynnewood, Bryn Mawr, and Wayne, but have lived in NJ since college. I currently live in Somerville, in Central NJ, and I am editor of a trade magazine that covers the medical device industry. I sometimes travel for business but I always let my leaguemates know how to contact me when that happens. I'm a rabid Iggles fan and follow the Phillies and Flyers too. Don't really care about the NBA or college sports.
I have been playing FF since 1998 and am currently in two other leagues. One of which is how I know Neil, who recruited me for this one. I have never done an auction league for football and have always wanted to give it a shot. I am in several fantasy baseball leagues and am familiar with the auction format from them. Have also never been in on a live-draft league from its inception, so that intrigued me too. One of my current FF leagues is a keeper league and I like that format -- and I like the keeper rules that have been drafted for this one.
Thanks for the invite and I look forward to meeting those of you I don't know.

No can do on that one! However, I'll promise you that I will drink enough to let steals like Ricky Williams and Tiki Barber to get by me.
Have all the paid owners introduced themselves here?
