Keys if you have any important league items put them in here. That e-mail address connected to the league I gave is something I don't often check.

 
at the risk of sounding off on this, can someone explain to me if we are to start 2RB, 3WR, 1TE and 1 flex. the flex player must have all three positions available in his position drop down menu when setting your line up.

because if i wanted to start 3 RB, that 3rd back has to have all three positions listed in that drop down menu, because if not im promted that my line up is illegal...am i missing something here?

Every flex-eligible player should have the flex option (RB-WR-TE) available in the dropdown on the lineup page.
are all RB, WR and TE Flex-eligable? for example on my roster Travis Henry is not.

Yes, they are, and yes, he is. I just went onto your page and checked.Make sure you're going to teams--lineup at the top, and then clicking on the drop down box next to the player.I show both RB and RB/WR/TE as options for Henry. Worst case, I can set your lineup for you, but if it's working for me, it should be working for you.

nope for some reason its not working for me. i put Henry in the starting line up and i get the message that i have 3 RB's starting and only 2 are allowed. Travis only has RB as a position available in the drop down as do all my other position players for the exception of Lendale and Mike Anderson...all other position players only have their nautral playing postion available in the drop down. also, when i go to the preview to see the weeks match ups againts DD, i have an illegal line up.for now, go ahead and set it like i have it. if i decide to change i will let you know.lets hope you can set it and dont get the same messages. :wall: :confused:

Here are some of your reserves according to your lineup:Anderson, Mike RB BAL @TB 7 0.0 n/a 74 17 123 501 4.1 5 12 0 239 1014 4.2 12 18 1 RS RB-WR-TE Pittman, Michael RB TB BAL 4 0.0 n/a 33 2 67 289 4.3 2 24 0 70 436 6.2 1 36 1 RS RB White, LenDale RB TEN NYJ 7 0.0 n/a 66 5 144 546 3.8 5 16 0 0 0 0.0 0 0 0 RS RB-WR-TE On the lineup page, go to your reserves and make them only RB rather than RB-WR-TE. Then you can go and make one of the starting RB a flex rb-wr-te.

Consider yourself lucky that you cannot get that loser in your lineup! :P
 
Great start there, Scerpico. All of you were solid this first week...and Keys lost! I really am enjoying being in a league with all of you.

BTW--to talk trash, talk football, or to rip on Irvin, come to the league chat tonight. Go to Scoreboard--Game Center--and then Show Chatroom toward the bottom. I'll be there all night starting now, and hopefully a few others will join us.

 
I think we need six playoff teams next year with two teams getting a week 14 bye, and I think we need to go to two divisions. Then the two division winners get the bye. I also think those division winners should get some $, like their entry fee back. Third place will win $94 which is too much. $40 for third is plenty. It's third place!

Good league though and it was a lot of fun except for weekly waiver additions. Maybe we could trim the rosters by two spots or something to make it a little more interesting. :goodposting:

Rules nominations:1. Reduce the roster size by 2. (Dr. Detroit)2. 6 playoff teams, two divisions. Two division winners get byes. (Dr. Detroit)3. Remove the flex spot. (Keys Myaths)4. Move PPR. 0 PPR for RBs, 1 PPR for WRs, and 2 PPR for TEs. (Keys Myaths)
 
First off, I definitely think we should move the posts to here. I don't want you guys developing twitches looking at my sorry-### team in the Super Bowl. I thank all of you for giving me your weakest week in and week out!

I realize we will vote later, but I would like to have some dialogue as well on the PPR thing. I was the one to suggest it earlier this year, and quite honestly, it was because my other money league does it and I didn't want to go through two analyses...call me lazy. But I am now lobbying against it in both leagues. Nothing's worse than seeing a one-step drop pass to TO behind the line of scrimmage where he loses one yard but still gets a point for the reception.

I am an advocate of fantasy scoring rules that most accurately reflect the value of the player on the field. One reason for PPR is to bring player values in line with the QB's to keep it from being a QB driven league. I would rather see QB scoring reduced (say 1 pt per 50 yards) than other positions inflated. I would like to see players get points for yards only, whether they are running or catching. And I would strongly lobby against a weighted PPR system as proposed above. That being said, please post your ideas on this topic.

Formal nominations below:

1 -- no PPR and lower yardage points for QBs

2 -- Bye week replacements -- When a player is on bye, his average up to that point can be his contribution to team score. Or, you can declare a player's score from the week previous to the bye as your bye week score, provided it is done before the previous game is played.

3 -- 1 IR spot -- This year as an example, SA could have been put on IR (minimum of 4 weeks at a time) and not counted against the roster spots.

4 -- Team QB and Team RB spots -- anyone play with these? I haven't but kind of like the idea...sound off if you have experience.

BTW Keys...I got first dibs on any open slots in this league next year. My best friend is another junkie and would love to get into a competitive league like this. Let me know if anyone bows out next year.

 
I think we should keep the PPR the way it is. I certainly wouldn't have drafted Westbrook in the first round otherwise and then this becomes like other leagues I've been in. I might be inclined to move it but not to like 2 for a TE. That doesn't even make sense for guys like Antonio Gates who don't really even block.

PPR should stay. If anything maybe we could drop one of the three WR spots. That increses the value of WRs at the top of the food chain and also stays true to a simple approach to scoring. I have never liked three WR starters.

QB yardage points could be one for 30. I'd be down with that. One for 50 seems extreme.

Again...I am only tying the 1 tp per 50 yards to losing the ppr so QB's don't get more inflated.DD -- tell me what you like about ppr. I used to like it, but am seeing flaws in it. What do you like?
