"So the next thing is picking league. As you can see here, just on this page alone there is fifty different leagues setup. Fantasy Football there is like millions of dollars spent on this. It is one of the biggest things going out right in fantasy. It is bigger than basketball or baseball. So, there are so many people that have different leagues. I don't know if you guys can see this here but in the commissioner notes you have marines, you have people for money or trash talkers. For me, I like talking trash when I am in there. So, that kind is of interest to me. So, I am going to put join this league. The first thing is team name, you need to pick out. I am going to pick out, make up a team name. How about trash talker 1. Then you have different colors of helmets. I am an Eagle fan. I am going to go green. Alright, then basically what it will do is it will give some of the basic setups for the rules. So, over here this really important. You have. Each league has it's own point system. When your looking at a league that is kind of important. Because when you do your draft, you want to draft players that match accordingly to those leagues. So, basic setup for points is. You have a quarterback on your team. You have two running backs, two receivers, a tight end, a kicker and a defense. Usually, when you have a quarterback it is twenty five yards equals one point. Running backs, receivers and tight ends every ten yards you get a point. Then you have kickers usually is three points for a field goal. Defense is for points against. Meaning , like just say you do a shutout you get ten points. In this league it is one to six is seven points. Seven to thirteen is four points. So, what that means is some leagues actually will give more emphasis on if you have sacked a guy you get one point or two points. So, that is important when your looking at draft because it defines when your going to pick guys in the draft. Also, what you want to look at too, is to see. The leagues I am usually in are twenty five equals one point. So, I look at this one, passing yards, fifty yards equals a point. So, actually I might not actually want to actually do this league. Because , to me I like having the twenty five extra points. So, that is something to look at too. If you see a league and you kind of see the scoring settings and your not really feeling that. Just go to another league that will matchup to something you are really interested in."
