SP leaguemates - Due to local issues, I'm cutting way back on FF next year, and SP league is one of them I'll be losing. NE & Joey = too good!!!

If anyone wants to buy it off of me, let me know. Otherwise I suppose I'll have to orphan it at the renewal deadline. Thanks.

2025 1.04, 2.04, 2.08, and at least 1 pick in the remaining rounds.

Sorry to hear you’re leaving us. That is a very solid team! I really hope we can muster up interest from another SharkPool member and not have to resort to a random buying the orphaned team.

Someone step up please!!! 🤞
 
Where to begin? The waiver system (Bid Groups) is archaic. All season, when I click on Stats I get a server error. I assume that's how you sort through Free Agents, but I have no idea since it's never worked. Same thing with Live Scoring tab since the playoffs started. "My Team" player stats are difficult at best to view and nigh impossible to sort on any meaningful basis. I'm probably forgetting a handful, but that's enough for now.

Thanks for the ignore trade offers tip. That one would have been nice to know back in August! :)

I almost exclusively use the browser version, not the app, during the season (either on my laptop or the browser on my phone). I realize you're probably done with FFPC, but if not, then the easiest way I've found to sort through free agents is by starting a new waiver claim ("create bid group") on your lineup page, because that will tell you whether a player is actually available (sometimes, a player will be a free agent on the "stats" page, but for one reason or another, he's ineligible to be picked up). Then you can sort by the various categories -- I like to sort to see if there are highly owned players available, or sort by who scored the most points last week, just to see if there are guys I'm missing.

As for guys who spam trade offers, I have found they exist in every league, regardless of on FFPC. Yes, the relative anonymity of FFPC does allow for more spammers. But I've actually been able to make deals with some of them -- often their player valuation is so off from mine that we can actually come to an agreement on a deal that we both like. But yeah, a lot of them just want your best players for their mediocre ones.
Yep, @InDitkaWeTrust I never access the stats either and sorting ownership\last wks points within bid groups is how I go about it as well. I do wish they would fix the live scoring so that it continues to work for all the teams right thru the playoffs. I don't find the mobile app useful and use the browser if I am on my cell phone.

Tuff luck on the Tri Flex Phandango!
 
Sorry u r leaving the SP lg @jabarony u got a good team and have been a good league mate.


I just posted about this upcoming opening in this league in the other SharkPool Home League thread that I’m in. (Thread is pinned in the SharkPool, called “Home League Uno”). I think we can all agree we’d much rather have someone familiar from these boards join instead of some random FFPC user. Let’s rally the troops!

@Hankmoody pinged me on the side expressing interest in joining a Shark Pool league. See roster above and reach out to @jabarony if you're interested in taking over his team. 🤞
 

FFPC is teasing some big announcement ("The Jungle Awaits") on Feb. 2.

A friend guessed maybe it's fantasy baseball. I hope not.
Are you worried them hosting fantasy baseball would have a negative effect on their fantasy football product?
I’m hopeful that more users gets them to fix the oddities in their website that have existed since I joined a league there 6 years ago.
 

FFPC is teasing some big announcement ("The Jungle Awaits") on Feb. 2.

Agreed, I think that would not be a positive development.
Why?

Basically, I don't follow baseball, so, personally, I wouldn't care about a fantasy baseball option. I hope they just stick to football.
This is how I feel.

Can't say I'd feel anything about it being a positive if it was baseball so in that sense agree it's not a positive development. But not a lot negative either other then minor nuisance of maybe having to sift through some unwanted announcements/clutter over it. If it was baseball, and it was h2h, I'll probably wish I followed or knew enough about MLB to play and feel like I have a shot, would in theory add fun to a sport I gave up a long time ago. But I know nothing and would only be donating.

It's a fun guessing game. Seeing a lot of predictions for baseball, DFS or just another contest.

I have no idea. I'd love an NFL draft contest myself, that would add some enjoyment to next few months, but don't think that's a thought anyone but me is having.

The Jungle reference/name is throwing me and some others off.

I googled Jungle and Fantasy Football and saw RTS sports has a contest they call The Jungle which is a playoff contest with 8 teams. Now I doubt for second they'd just rip the same name off and do a similar contest but it got me thinking, a regular season contest that ran like 3-4 weeks could be kind of cool. But again, no way they are just going to copy something like this so don't think it's that either.


Maybe it's a just Super Bowl squares, lol.

I just thought of this, but I wonder if it could be a guillotine-style format, since those are pretty popular. Guess we'll see in 10 days.
 
Sorry u r leaving the SP lg @jabarony u got a good team and have been a good league mate.
Sorry to hear you are leaving as well @jabarony. I hope that even if you can't maximize your price on the team that you sale it to to someone from the Sharkpool, assuming at least a fair price is made.
yeah, you will be missed
Awww I’ll miss you guys too!!!
Didn’t anyone end up taking over your team? I remember someone from the SharkPool Home League was interested, I believe.

Don't like Baseball and don't want ads crammed down my throat for crap i am not at all interested in.

I hope it is SB related, DFS type maybe, even squares would be fine with me.
 
So I could use some help from you FFPC veterans out there. I took over a $77 team three years back that had Mahomes, CMac, all draft picks, and nothing else. Thoroughly enjoyed the process of rebuilding this team and won the championship this year. I am thinking about selling the team and using the winnings to buy a $250 team that needs to be rebuilt. What's the best way to sell my championship team? Use FFPC to orphan the team or Dynasty Depot to sell it? It should be worth a premium since it is loaded with good, young players.

There are some teams available at FFPC that have several pieces and all their draft picks that would be fun to take over. They sell for well under the league fee, but does this mean I pay the price to buy the team and the league fee? Seems like a lot to take over a poor team.

I'm not in any $77 leagues, but I know there's no deposit. If you orphan it (basically just quit the league), do you lose any money? If you would lose money, then listing it with FFPC can get you your money back, but FFPC won't let you list for more than $77. I've sold teams on FFPC before for a reduced price. (I renew the team, then list it for sale -- that's the only way to get your deposit back.) It's hit or miss. There are a LOT of teams for sale.

I have listed teams on Dynasty Depot, but I've never sold anything. If you want to try to make a profit on the team, that's the only way to do it, but you do have to renew the team before listing it. If you've never signed up there, you can look at FFPC emails for a discount code.

Honestly, if you've made a profit on the $77 team and want to move on, I wouldn't consider it a huge loss to just orphan it. I have bought orphan teams on FFPC 3-4 times (including one in 2017 that was my first FFPC dynasty league and that I'm still in). The list price would cover your 2025 dues, but you'd still owe the deposit (so if it's a $250 league but the team costs $200 on the orphan page, then you just pay the $200, plus the deposit of $150). I've gotten some pretty nice teams at discount before. However, for me, if it's a choice between taking over a somewhat stacked orphan at discount or paying full price for a startup, I prefer the startup. It's much more fun for me to build my own team.

$77 leagues make you pay the following year in full if you want to make trades during the off-season. So I guess it’s a “full price deposit”

Ps. Sorry I have nothing more of use to add. I’m only in 3 FFPC leagues and don’t currently plan on leaving any of them.
 
Phandango pretty much covered it.

I decided to cut back on my teams a little this year so I orphaned 3 of them. I just orphaned them on the FFPC site and let FFPC take them over to sell them. That seemed easiest. Dynasty Depot is a buyers market now. The only teams going for a premium are usually teams with multiple first round picks and premium young players, and even some of those are not going for full price. Kind of funny to see teams that were renewed at full price, now being sold at a steep discount just weeks later.
 
Hey SP league. The tradition of excellence continues!!! Born To Run is taking over my team. Thanks y’all.

Make me proud Born To Run :P
Great to hear. Welcome, @Born to Run ! It’s a really fun league.
Plelss3 don’t judge me by my current geriatric roster. My team used to be good in this league once ;)

Should be fun playing in this league. Many thanks to jabarony for the smooth transition and not trading away all the draft picks. Is it safe to assume that owners in this league will be more difficult to fleece than my other FFPC league?

Not judging by my stupid McBride+Derrick Henry for his Kelce + 3rd.
Worst trade ever in my 3-peat, Win Now quest 2 years ago.

Welcome to the League! Yes I would say the lg is pretty competitive, but on the plus side you shouldn't see a lot of garbage offers either. My trading window is always open!

GL!
 

FFPC is teasing some big announcement ("The Jungle Awaits") on Feb. 2.

A friend guessed maybe it's fantasy baseball. I hope not.

If you were in any FPC contests (the $350 one), and you have the app, then you can see a new logo next to your FPC teams on the "My Teams" page. It says, "The Big Gorilla," and it seemingly replaces the FPC contest. Guess we'll find out Sunday.

Good detective work.

But that can't be all right? Not with the way they are ballyhooing it, a name change does not seem like enough.

Credit where credit's due: My 15-year-old son showed me. 😂

If I remember, there was a decent overlay in the FPC, and perhaps FantasyPros no longer wants to do it. So yeah, it could be a totally revamped contest, because I also don't think a name change is enough to warrant the "hype" they're trying to build around this.
