I'm not sure you guys were supposed to see that quite yet. I'm not going to pull it down, but you should consider it unofficial for now.

Ooops.....I'm not sure you guys were supposed to see that quite yet. I'm not going to pull it down, but you should consider it unofficial for now.
man still no bye weeks? wthI'm not sure you guys were supposed to see that quite yet. I'm not going to pull it down, but you should consider it unofficial for now.
bye weeks is part of the strategy. why taking multiple te/def/k/qb can save your tush in the contest!!man still no bye weeks? wthI'm not sure you guys were supposed to see that quite yet. I'm not going to pull it down, but you should consider it unofficial for now.
As I said last year, if you're in this thread on opening day and thinking about bye weeks, your EV can only be lowered by our putting bye weeks on the entry form.If you know what I mean.man still no bye weeks? wth

wish they didn't do that personally...they actually do list bye weeks after you hit submit. that is a bummer, I don't think everyone paid attention to that, it was another way to separate yourself.

IIRC there are always a few players that are conspicuously missing from the contest, for whatever reason.Tarvaris?
First "something goofy" is in the rules: 5th through 10th place finishers all get a 2009 subscription to FBG. Real generous, considering the 2009 season will be over when they win.Try and break this thing everyone. We rushed the variable roster out (without a lot of testing) so if you see something goofy let us know please.

Seems like the values are more compressed--the high-end guys aren't quite as expensive as I remember them being, but the mid-range guys seem more expensive.damn, these boys are expensive this year
Sweet, I think that I am going to pull the rosters from FBG this year rather than have the users endter their teams. We'll have a much better stat base for you to work off of.If OC wants to host the fantasystar service again, I can probably swing setting up the cut predictor spreadsheet, but I cant make any promises.The more folks we get with VALID rosters entered on the site, the more accurate we can be with predictions. Last year we had about 200 if I remember correctly.
Not on my squad... Run first team, unimaginative play calling, rookie, nah....I played around with it and already came out with a decent looking squad. Percy Harvin will be on about 99% of the teams IMO.
I skipped him, but it is just my first draft.I played around with it and already came out with a decent looking squad. Percy Harvin will be on about 99% of the teams IMO.
But we're talking Fiddles here so that doesn't always apply.As I said last year, if you're in this thread on opening day and thinking about bye weeks, your EV can only be lowered by our putting bye weeks on the entry form.If you know what I mean.man still no bye weeks? wth
TE's are tough. There's a lot of meat in the middle but the bottom shows no promise for me whatsoever. A guy like Shiancoe was nothing last year. The bottom guys just look like garbage to me. Other than QB, I can find lots of value down in the low dollar guys.I was just thinking how easy I thought this year was (man, I am stacked!), then I realized I didn't pick any tight ends.
:X :Xi always start out with two great defenses, then i keep borrowing $1 here, $1 there to get the other guys squeezed in there. before you know it i've got the Raiders and Bengals D.

Yeah, I am not gonna waste a roster spot even trying to hit a TE lottery ticket, just gonna get ones I like and know.TE's are tough.

I kinda admit it would been funny if DD had corrected it 2008 for like an hour or so But I'm a bit punchy tonight and easily amused.So with rosters going up to 24 will he have a SIXTEEN kicker guy entry this year? -QGapalmer said:David Dodds said:Thanks - I corrected this nowapalmer said:First "something goofy" is in the rules: 5th through 10th place finishers all get a 2009 subscription to FBG.

That's a good question - I know last year when things were set they were set, but perhaps you guys could say add potential players up until like the 18th or so? Anyhow just a thought. I'm just excited it's that time of year again -QGIs there a way to suggest adding a player to the list?
Was hoping TE Shawn Nelson for Buffalo would be on there. Since he's not on the list, he could be added for $1.

Kind of an oversight there, IMO. If Chase Coffman is on there, this kid should be there.Was hoping TE Shawn Nelson for Buffalo would be on there. Since he's not on the list, he could be added for $1.

You're right. 5 maybe 10% of the time they are. Good luck with that...FUBAR said:yeah, those rookie WRs are never good choices. :(TheFanatic said:Not on my squad...

Players and values are locked.First time subscriber, quick questiono all the players $ value stay the same between now and the deadline? My thinking is if values change, some players are better to grab at their current value before injuries/pre season starts.Edit- you just answered my question
Is Cade McNown back in the league? I don't think so.I made one lineup and won't mess with it until just before the deadline.TheFanatic said:This thing has been open for 4 days now. I have had about 20 different lineups. And I'm still waiting on what to do at my 3rd QB (Culp, McNown, Quinn, A. Smith, etc). I love this thing
