***EPL 2016-17 Fantasy League*** League is set - Good Luck! (1 Viewer)

Nothing on this end @The Gator. Last year you ended up having to have your wife do it, IIRC. Maybe you should get her involved again, sweet cheeks.

You must have sent it as payment for goods or services rather than to friends and family. You don't see the CC fees taken from the merchant when you pay at a store either. But believe me, they take them out.

 
alright then. I trust ya. Thought I'd sent the $$ the right way, but I'll make up the difference.

This is a friends and family kind of leeg

 
I think they have a podcast, no? 
So I went back to the site earlier, looks like Phil has turned it into a Manchester United fan site. No sign of Anto at all :shrug:

There's also news and notes stuff, but nothing like the BTP I've grown to enjoy.

Oh, well.....

:banned:

Reminder that waivers run tonight.

Also remember that you can only claim players who are in the database, as they sign they will be added, but must pass waivers first.  So, keep an eye out.

Also, if you are dropping a speculative pick from the draft - let us know by posting here.  If you pick up someone, without dropping anyone, you will drop a speculative pick, and I get to pick which one, if multiple....

 
Told you #####es that Roberto Pereyra would be on my team.  

Hated to give up the #1 claim spot so early, but there are no guarantees of future incomings and he's a #######g stud.  

 
Just wanted to mention a couple things

1)  The scoring changes are SO much better, IMO.  The yellow card scoring change is a huge improvement as is the goals against.  And, I'm digging the tackles/interceptions as it does show up as meaningful play and adds a bit more to the scoreboard.  So far, excellent changes.

When you look at top 20 scorers so far, there are 7 forwards, 7 midfielders, 5 defenders, and 1 GK.  And tops overall is a defender ( :bye: McAuley).  That's excellent balance so far.

2)  I would like to consider adding an extra roster spot.  Benches have always felt tight and in a league that is so long with so many changes to lineups and the time that some good players can miss (like a month) without being droppable, an extra bench spot (or even 2) would be helpful.  I know it reduces the pool of players available but there are still always guys you can plug in for 2 pts if need be. 

3)  Another one I meant to mention from the past that I forgot is wondering if there's a way to reward players that draw penalty kicks.  IMO, those should be scored as an assist.  If X player does all the work and draws a PK and then their top goal scorer slots it home, that player gets all the points for basically doing nothing while the guy who actually contributed far more gets nothing.  I don't know if that's a stat that is tracked, but if it is, then giving 3 pts for that is something I think we should consider in the future.

Overall, this league is MUCH better this year than even just 4 yrs ago when I started.  The ability to make lineup changes once starters are posted is HUGE.  Now the scoring changes really have made a big difference for me. 

 
I am pretty sure I saw a rumor about him going somewhere soon, but I can't imagine its to a PL team :oldunsure:
He's mulling an offer from Palermo in Serie A.

I'm sure the open-minded mafiosos that run that Sicilian town will just love him.

French-side Nice also has kicked tires, along with some Swiss club.
