Fantasy Sports forum ??????

[Big Reed]

Now that we have a new Political forum ,what's the chance we might be able to persuade Brian into creating a fantasy Sports forum ? We could use this forum to talk about fantasy sports, review possible trades, and also to help establish new fantasy leagues in baseball , football , basketball and maybe hockey and also sports wagering - I mean for monopoly money of course.. I truly believe if the forum was established, we'd have a lot of people contributing to it. I would even be willing to write fantasy power rankings for basketball and baseball. my fantasy football talents seem to be lacking.

 

 

I know I've brought up the subject before, and it has been met with a big NO. but that was when we only had 300 members. I think now that we have over 1,000 members, we may have a new demographic that needs to be reached- and that is the fantasy sports player. But since we have a new server and other stuff, I thought I would once again bring up the idea for approval. the worst that could happen is NO.

 

I' m also willing to throw out a second idea - now that the new political forum has been created, how about if we could change it's name to the fantasy forum after the election is over? fantasy and politics are kind of the same anyway. and every four years, we could allow political conversations on that forum. or we could call it the fantasy / political forum and use it for both fantasy sports talk and also political talk? they do kind of run together anyway, right?

 

is this one of my best ideas ever or what ? I didn't ask if it was a good idea. I just asked if it as one of my better ideas? there is a difference. how about if we took a poll first? See how the creation of a fantasy sports forum and politics are very similar ???

A fantasy baseball forum would be great....

brian, we know you're not big into fantasy sports. but I'm talking not just about baseball, I'm talking about all fantasy sports. I'm confident if created, this could be one of your busiest forums and another 500-20,000 people would want to join brewerfan and contribute to this forum. we could even try to interview Greg Ambrosius from fantasy sports magazine . he's from Iola , WIS. I even talked to him on the phone one time several years back. he's really a nice guy. we could use the forum for fantasy mock drafts. I think this is a great idea, and worthy of at least taking a poll on the issue. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

To be honest, in about 90 days the free gold membership offer given to EZBoards that run Google ads is about to expire. Given that our price per 6 months of usage is directly related to hits, i'm not interested in adding to it at this point. Since the election is over in November, I didn't mind creating a special forum for election talk.

 

FANTASY SPORTS ARE THE DEVIL.

Plus, you can always talk about fantasy sports in the off-topic forum. I have seen bursts of fantasy sports talk there, but not enough to warrant it's own forum. The off-topic forum was obviously skewed political, so I think an off-topic political forum was more than justified (and appreciated for someone that doesn't care about the political talk, bring on lemurs, comic books and walruses vs. polar bears!).
