So we are doing 18 teams? 16 seemed like a bit much. I'm still in, just seems like talent is gonna be spread very thin.
I posted a comment on the league's homepage about that

No, the total is 16. I had said earlier that I started at 12 and that filled up quick. I was willing to go as high as 16 but that's it.

thanks for making room for me. :)
can you draft with the mobile app? I'll be at my first NFL game that night (Falcons v. Patriots. go Pats!!!) so it's either draft via mobile or let the computer do it for me.

I have never found a Yahoo or ESPN* app for drafting hockey. There are 3rd party apps for it, but to actually run a draft, you have to pay for it. No free ones.

*Unless that has changed this year.

I'm not sure. I wouldn't think it is a matter of yahoo allowing you as much as it is your device being able to run the software needed. If you can run Safari or Chrome, I would log into the Yahoo page and test the draft app to see.

I'd like this to be a 100% LGP league but I will open the final spot up on FB if nobody signs up here. Need 1 more team.

2 is all you get. In an 16 team league we are drafting a total of 272 players which is over 1/3 of the league.

Alright. I am nothing if not fair. What does everyone else think? Should I add more IR and BN spots?

Currently we have 2 IR and 2 BN. What would you like to see?

you don't need more than 2 IR spots. 4 bench spots is pretty common in the leagues I am in.
