Back in those post-Ohio, pre-Greg Monroe going pro days when we were all so mopey, stuffing our faces with double-stuff oreos and going through withdrawals, some of us who were not busy shamelessly promoting our friends' websites were talking World Cup in the comments of one thread or another.  I tossed out the idea of doing a fantasy World Cup league for the summer and I had at least a few positive responses.  So, without further ado, I am hereby throwing the gauntlet down and opening up the league to the casual masses.

Details after The Jump.

I have started a league called CasualHoya in the ESPN World Cup fantasy league. The rules for the league are here.

The good thing about the rules for this, as compared to March Madness pools, is that even once all of our well thought out predictions go wrong right away, we get to continually refine our team from the remaining players, week to week.

So sign up, join our league, and may the best team (Germany) win.

Soccer is fun!
