Huddle up!!!

Who of you guys would be up for a little Gridiron-style "Huddle" to determine "the Gridiron Top 100"? I think the time is VERY right for one here at the end of July/beginning of August (moreover, as a precursor to the commencement of the establishment of the GBRFL2 next week)! Also, if we do one NOW, things would be spaced far enough apart so that doing another one more toward the end of August wouldn't be a waste! Remember "Gridiron Huddles" are a team effort, not an individual effort! Here are the simple rules:
Huddles are to serve as a way for us to, together, create an "overall" fantasy player rankings list. I will make the first pick (I don't have to do that this time, though). Someone follows. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GO TWICE IN A ROW. It would be preferable if you waited for, perhaps, at least TWO guys to go before going again. I would say that the goal would be to establish a "TOP 100" list, but we could go ad infinitum. Of course, that could get ad nauseam. IF YOU HAPPEN TO PICK AT THE SAME TIME AS SOMEONE ELSE, THE SECOND GUY SHOULD "REMOVE" HIS POST!
That's all! NO teams; we are working TOGETHER here! NO time limits! NO parameters regarding positions or anything. Just make a pick and wait for at least another Gridironer or two to select and then feel free to go again. As for the "scoring system", just take into account a "standard" CBFL-style scoring system (not roster or starting-lineup requirements, though), which can be viewed at the "Rules/Scoring" page of the CBFL site (enjoy the patriotic  theme of that site, fellas  ). So that our "product" would be useful to a wide range of visiting fantasy footballers, we would include all the main positions: QB's, RB's, WR's, TE's, PK's (though I couldn't see any going in the Top 100) AND D/ST's (what the hell... no one else really includes them in their Top 100 lists, so it would be unique to do so and I could actually see a couple perhaps going in the Top 100).
So, what do ya's say? Express your interest in participating herein, and I'd say we plan on gettin' this sucker started by Monday! Also, getting this to be a joint project with JunkyardJake.com is in the works, i.e. the results of this might be posted/become a "feature" there as well!  Now that would be teamwork! 
NOW, sign up and let's plan on helping out the fantasy football world by getting a REAL Top 100 put together, my fellow "Gridiron Greats"!

Yes, Jake, after this starts, I will maintain a running list on the initial post of the thread on which we make the picks. I will also have set up a separate "commentary" thread. I will probably update the aforementioned master list two to four times a day based on the pace we are going at. You could just post it at JunkyardJake.com when we get to 100 OR you could make it more "active" and do something similar to what I do here and "update" it regularly, perhaps once a day. That way your visitors would be able to become "real spectators" of the "event" and maybe even want to "participate" themselves, but, in any case, it will a) give them a reason to return to your site and b) make it more of a "living, breathing event" rather than just "yet another (dead) list" done by faceless entities. NOW, AGAIN, THAT'S THE TEAMWORK I HAVE BEEN SEEKING!
