Auto League 657 Best of 1990s

Welcome to the Auto League

Auto Leagues are seasons that last about two months (baseball) or one month (basketball & football). Baseball and Baksetball sim about 2-3 games per day, while Football sims one game per day. Since this league is run with essentially no commissioner, there is a trade limit. Please be reasonable with your transactions, and report any bad owners using the feedback form.

This is NOT a keeper league, so once your team's season is over, you can stay in this league and re-draft next season, or quit and join a new Auto League.
You can start ranking players for the draft as soon as you sign up! (The Draft link appears on the league homepage and your team page when you are signed in.)

In daily draft leagues, once the league fills, a draft round will run once every eight hours until all teams have one defense, 11 skill players and 2 kickers. Once the draft is complete games will begin! Free agency opens after the first games. Please be sure to read the League Rules for further details!

When do games start?
After all teams have an owner and have drafted, the games will begin. You will get an email after the first game notifying you that the league has started.

What time are games played?
Barring any issues with the servers, games are auto-simmed once per day. This allows the league to keep moving, but also allows for teams to set Training and Gameplans.

Can I customize my team?
Yes! You can change your team name, logo, and more via the "Owner Console" on your "My Team" page before the season begins and up until the 3rd game of the season.

Play-offs
Top six teams make the play-offs with the top two teams getting a first-round bye. Teams will get re-seeded so the best team plays the lowest available seed in the second round. All series are one game. Owners can leave the league once their team is elimnated, or wait until the playoffs are over and re-draft the next season.

I'm always eager to here what you enjoy or think can be improved with the site, so stay in touch via the feedback form and follow site updates on the news & notes page.

Latest Public Board Post
1/18/2025 Numerous leagues not fillingNuroc
I think part of the problem is that 'First Come, First Served' is still one's overwhelmingly best chance to draft a truly competitive team laced with a few bonafide studs. After most leagues are half-filled the pickings start to get iffy to the point where veteran owners can see there's only a limited chance to be other than an also-ran.

I know the drafting process has improved significantly since the earlier days, especially in auto-leagues, but it seems that another tweak might be in order.

I also agree with the other poster who wondered aloud how it is that certain owners routinely wind up with stud-infested lineups. I doubt that it's either dumb luck or cheating: I think there must somehow be a grey area where some folks have just figured out something about the draft sim that others haven't.

Or maybe I'm just paranoid. That certainly wouldn't be a first;)
