Free * Draft Only * For Charity League

[Cindy Collins Age 6]

I am looking for a few good drafters for a mulitple message board friendly competition.

Here is the Idea.

I thought a fun way to donate to charity,
would be to have a fantasy football draft,
and have pledges to donate to the charity the winner is playing for.

I will post the winner and their charity at the end of the season.
It will be up to the pledgers to donate directly to the charity at the end of the contest on their honor.
Might get a charity some $$$ and recognition.

The league: Chicago for Charity
August 30, 9 pm Central Time as a tentative draft time
Draft Only Best Ball, Scoring is here http://football21.myfantasyleague.com/2009/options?L=68220&O=09
Participants: Fantasy Footballers From different message boards

Participants: TBD - [s]Currently contacted Chicago Radio Stations. Waiting to see how many spots I can fill from that.[/s] Currently soliciting other message board participants. Would still still include media guys if they respond.

A generous pledge has up the prize to $120 to the charity the winner is playing for.

Still looking for a participant or two from this board.

Hello,

I am interested in this league. Is it going to be a live draft and when do you plan on holding the draft? You can contact me at rentedmules02@yahoo.com.

Thanks,
Chris

The draft will be live online a week before the season, probably a week night 9 central.

Okay, when you have an exact date, let me know. I am definately interested but I won't be available to draft from Sept 1-9 because I'll be in Vegas on vacation. If it is any evening prior to that, I'm in.

Let's shoot for August 30, 9 pm Central Time as a tentative draft time.
What Charity will you play for?

This is a good guide to pick one.

August 30 works great for me. My wife and I are dog lovers and we donate to several animal causes so I I'll be playing for the ASPCA. I think it's kind of appropriate since the NFL is looking into letting Mike Vick back into the league.

Thanks,
Chris

I would also be interested if you need another body. Sounds like a great idea.

aaawall91 & mattUTD20,

Feel free to pick a charity. Be glad to have you.

I have asked other message boards for reps, and emailed many of Chicago's Radio station.
Thank you for being the first to reply.
