So you think you can beat CheeseheadTV writers at Fantasy Football?

Tell us why we should pick you to play against us...

Continuing a tradition I started over at allgbp.com, we're giving all you amateur GMs out there a chance to show your stuff against our writers. Six selected readers will compete against six of our writers for a year of bragging rights and some Packers swag (TBD). 

If you're serious about playing, can definitely participate in the draft next Monday night, Sep 2nd, 8PM Central (NO AUTO-DRAFTS!!!), and think you can kick our asses, leave a comment below on why we should pick you to play in the league. We will pick our favorite comments and let you know if you're in.

Go Pack!

Because I ask every year and I always miss the cut! No? Ok well because you need someone from West Virginia that wears alot of denim and flannel in your league ?

Because I need a challenge.

In all seriousness, I love fantasy football and would be thrilled to have the chance to compete in a league not only consisting other Packers fans like myself, but one that will hopefully stay competitive throughout the season and not have players drop off after a few weeks.

because i'm an old man whose all time fantasy team(of which 75% are dead and the rest are in nursing homes) would still kick u knucklehead's butts. it's funny you said kick our asses because my dynasty fantasy team name is Pop's GKYA, my stadium name is Nursing Home. i'm a life long Cheesehead, who has never had the chance(yet) to see lambeau, but someday hopefully.

Top 5 Reasons to Run with Pack Daddy

1) Will run over Benke's team like Chuck Cecil versus Dave Maggot x2 or Kenny Stills versus Matt Suey (His choice)
2) Promise to post smack talk frequently mixed with some self deprecating humor. (AKA Nagler Style)
3) Will come legit, been Commish in my own league since we ran it on the chalkboard in college.
4) You need some California influence, talking IPAs not Pinot Noir
5) I won't quit and put on a Jay Cutler face if I don't win.

You guys may be the experts on real football, but I'm an expert in fantasy football. How can I lose when I'm going against Nagler's Never Right and friends! Doesn't sound too scary to complete with.

Thanks for all the great work you all do!
GO PACK GO!

I am an active player who well honestly just plays fantasy football (need a life) but unlike most, if something doesn't go my way for the season, I dont quit I love playing spoiler. But that don't happen much, I am a winner (At least in my view, maybe not to everyone else) pick me, go pack go.

A Wisconsin native who’s gone behind enemy lines to MN. Cheesehead TV is made for people like me — those who spread the GBP goodness to all across the world. This opportunity would be another chance to show these Vikings fans how a true fan base operates.

Big time Packers Fan/Service Member here! Originally from Madison WI but I currently reside/stationed in New Hampshire. I rely on Cheesehead TV for almost all of my Packers news. I’m also a 3 time squadron champ in Fantasy Football over the last 4 seasons. Looking for a shot at you guys!!! Will 100% be able to partake in the Draft if selected

I'd love to participate, please pick me. In the league I'm commissioner of, I won 3 out of 5 years, and the two years I didn't win I was in the championship. I'm not a sore loser by any means, and I just enjoy the randomness/strategy of the game, plus who doesn't love my home state of Florida, you'll get never ending 90 degree weather and sunshine every time I comment!

You know what, I'm going to go in the opposite direction. I'm going to auto-draft if I damn well feel like it. Set my line-up? I'll do my best. I will probably end up with enough RBs on my roster at one point that I'll have to leave another skill slot open on game-day, because I just can't stop hoarding RBs.

My team name? Bye Week

I'd love a second shot at it. Last time I drafted David Johnson with the #1 pick and lost him after 1 quarter. My 2nd pick Amari Cooper also got dinged and had a horrible season. I think I can do better than just barely missing the playoffs this time, since that kind of bad luck is really rare.

Because I am your biggest fan Jersey-Al. Also, because it will be good to have someone from India.....Also, if I don’t make playoffs I will donate 100$ to CheeseheadTV Patreon. I am average at Fantasy football so there is good business opportunity there.

I was playing fantasy football when online fantasy football didn't exist. I literally had Jim Harbaugh on a fantasy team. Think about that. (To be fair, it didn't go well.) Also, Go Pack Go.

20 years of playing Fantasy, and it got to the point where I was in 12 too many leagues every year. I got burned out and needed to get clean of my addiction of mock drafts, waiver wires, and trade offers, so last year I took a hiatus. I need a kick-start to get my Fantasy fix again. I believe this league would be the PERFECT opportunity to make that happen. Help me Jersey-Al-Kenobi, you're my only hope.

3. Won $50K on Thanksgiving Fan Duel contest.
4. Have a winning personality.

Because CheeseheadTV is devoted to Green Bay Packers fans worldwide, so you need a Brazilian fan to represent the Southern Hemisphere. If you don’t pick me, you might consider changing your slogan...

Also my exclusive knowledge of serial killers, aliens and conspiracy theories, will be invaluable in taking down the cheesehead writers establishment.

- A widow's peak

Just a Huge packers fan since the day my stepdad took me to county stadium and my dedication was only bolstered once I visited the holy ground of Lambeau Field many years later. As for playing fantasy football, sign me up, I would feel honored and priveledged to play with the Cheesehead TV crew. I am a dedicated listener and viewer and appreciate your content so much I became a Patreon! Also for the record, this is the very first time I have ever (no really, EVER) logged a comment on any website. In closing, if chosen, I will play until the end regardless of my record, but I also don’t plan on losing...and to sweeten the pot, I will bribe you with beer money...
