I just went over there and it says (espn.com) they will start it in late July and i can set it up.  It is FREE, and I believe we can have around 20 people in it.  

It is a different type of league, where you have a salary cap, and each NFL player's individual salaries go up and down each week based on their performance so you can pick up and drop players based on how much cap room you have each week.  
There are many more details which are NOT that difficult to understand but would take too long to explain now.

It is FREE, and probably the funnest league I've ever been involved in.  Like I said if I could see some interest, then ESPN.com will email me when it starts, and I can set EVERYTHING up, alls you have to do is sign up for FREE and wait till the season starts.

If you are already planning to be in a couple other leagues and usually you might think that you don't want to get involved in too many and spread yourself thin, I'd advise you to give this league a try. ;D

Did I mention it is FREEEEEEE! ;)

I'll try - especially if there's a way to circumvent the salary cap system a la the taterskins.

lol  You'll have to not only hire Snyder & Co. but also invite them into your home.

We have 4 including me, we'll need atleast 10 I'd say for it to be fun, but it is a long way away and I'll set it up either way once it begins, and then try to get people to do it.

10-20 is good stuff.

Sweeeeeeeeet, what's up RS?  Howz it going?  When I first started this thread, the ESPN.com fantasy page for their salary cap league said it would be up and running in late July.  It still is not up yet, I don't know why.

I'm currently checking into other FREE salary cap leagues, I have a few I'm looking into in terms of checking out their rules/format.  TSN/FoxSports has a free salary cap league but I don't know if I'm liking their format too much.

I'll get it updated soon.  There is NO draft, so we don't have to hurry.  (Don't trip about the no draft part, it is still a very very exciting league as you get to change your players and team each week based on salary.  So with draft leagues you are stuck with one team all season, this one you get to change week to week which is more fun IMO.)

LOL...I'm doing great, man...marriage is cool (so far).  Ummm, I dunno if you checked this out yet or not, but TheSportingnews.com has a salary cap league for free.  I joined one league last week.  Man, it's tough to field a great lineup with the salary cap in that league.  Check it out id you haven't already...maybe you'll like it.

ps...isn't Linda just beautiful?  :P :-*

Your honor, I'd like to present exhibit A if it pleases the court.
QuoteTheSportingnews.com has a salary cap league for free.  

And now exhibit B from NB.
QuoteTSN/FoxSports has a free salary cap league but I don't know if I'm liking their format too much.

TSN.com and FoxSports.com have joined forces, you can get to that free salary cap league through either place.  Anyways, the ESPN.com league is 2wice as good IMO from the rules/format I've seen on the TSN one.  But if espn.com doesn't get their crap in gear, we may be forced to try TSN's.

Also I've found a few others through google search, that are free salary cap leagues, but they are small time sites for the most part, and I don't know how reliable they are.  I'll keep looking, and hopefully people on here will still be down to try it, I think the salary cap leagues are very fun, and a good change from the usual head-to-head one team all year leagues.

Have you played in a salary cap league in other years before this one RS?

I played in one last year...one of the cheesy USAToday ones.  Like you, I welcome the change of pace from your standard drafted teams.  Either way, lemme know...I'm in.
