2016 League Page Donation Page Financial Tracker  Cheating for Charity is a Fantasy Football League. Each team represents a charity that the member is playing for. At the end of the season the charity of the winning team gets two thirds of the winnings from the season and the runner up gets the remaining one third. No league fees or other expenses are taken from the pot. A key part of the game is to encourage additional donations by "cheating." This is done through three ways. First, the amount donated becomes your FAAB. Second, players can "pre-bid" to get bonus points before the Thursday game. Third, players can spend their FAAB to swap out poorly performing players from their bench. Past Years 2015: $4482 for the Southern Poverty Law Center 2014: $1640 for the Harper College Speech & Theater, $820 for Illuminate Academy 2013: $518 for Minnesota Children's Hospital, $518 for Loma Linda University Medical Center quote:Draft: TBD

I get more than enough cash from donations so I'll throw this out there; if someone can't afford the $25 up front but still wants to play I'll cover it. All I ask is that you either drop a few bucks into the pot if you can, or pay it forward.

If we do it during the week I would prefer Wednesdays and Thursdays. They completely broke how my department works so I've worked 12 or more hours 5 of the last 6 Mondays/Tuesdays.

I would be down for some charity chugging of 4lokos and all that good stuff I've read about in the main thread. Would I have a shot at winning if I pay the initial $25 and then toss a few dollars every now and then as a lifelong member of The Poors? This is assuming, of course, that you're still taking players. And that you'd have an even amount of players.

Beer gets dirty Reddit money he tries to throw around but it doesn't guarantee victory. My current draft schedule is 5/28: 5 PM Pacific 5/28: 6:30 Pacific 09/04 all fuckin day live auction draft One other one I don't know when yet. For draft time/date just let me know outside those times and dates and I will try to make it work.

I won two years ago and took second last year and spent less than 100 each year. Just be smart about your budget and you'll be fine. I'm poor as poo poo too.

It would be nice if we could avoid Sept. 7, the draft date for this league and perhaps in doing so recruit a few more of their members.

Maybe having to donate another $25 over the course of three months. Most of that charity money is because beersheets get donations.

I'm in Tokyo still which is EDT+13 currently. I can try to make any day work as long as the times line up for starting 7am to 10pm JST (6pm to 8am). There are some due to unmovable work meetings and such (9am-7pm local time / 8pm to 6am) that I might not be able to do. Most of those are probably fine, but rather than post all sorts of random unmovable meetings I'll just try to be on top of watching times.
