Social Media Fantasy Football

Last year, Dachis Group's Peter Kim got a bunch of social media gurus, ninjas, charlatans, and doplegangers together to exchange one kind of geekiness for another. After our inaugural fantasy football season, Peter and I discussed what improvements we'd want make to the league. First and foremost was to try to establish teams that were in it for the long(er) haul. So we're hoping to make this a keeper league where you can carry over one player per year. You'll forfeit the round you drafted him in, so it places an emphasis on value.

Among the returning and new players there's also a good mix of folks who work in different areas within social media including creative, advertising, consulting, user experience, strategy, marketing, etc. Consider this your official introduction to the league.

Now that everyone has met each other and exchanged pleasentries, go forth and talk smack. Enjoy.

There are no words for the havoc I'm going to wreak on this league.
