What will everyone do (1 Viewer)

Unfortunately there are a large number of people without power where the hurricane is going through, and those living there who are in fantasy leagues will be unable to submit lineups or see e-mails or board posts. I suppose most or all leagues already have an "if you don't submit your lineup" rule, but some of the rule changes for this particular game may not even been seen by people without electricity.
We have an emergency situation in our rules regarding line-ups, but not about games being rescheduled.My wife suggested we "eliminate week 2 matches" in our regular season Won/Loss & Point Totals. Not that I would do it.... but thought I would share it.
 
Sorry, I don't get it. The game HAS to get played eventually. They can't play less games than the other 30 teams. With that said, just adjust the score of the FF games accordingly after the HOU/BAL game is finally played.

What am I missing?

 
I'm thinking about giving my owners the option of announcing who they would start if the game isn't played Monday. For those like me who don't have another option (I only have one TE-Daniels) you risk taking a zero. I personally just picked up two waivers (which cost me $) and I'm not dropping either one for another TE as a backup...Unless my league agreed to give me a refund on one of my last waivers and I don't really want to do that either.

 
I'm the Commish in a 12 team money league. Fortunately, Houston and Balt are 2 teams with limited Fantasy studs. I have Andre Johnson and it looks like no one else even has a Balt or Houston player in their lineup (Mason is on my Bench, Heap on another Bench, Balt D undrafted, Schaub & Slaton on the bench, Owen on the bench). I plan on viewing thissituation just like a game time Decision, especially since I seem to be the only one impacted and do not want to appear to be doing anything for a favorable gain.

What if it is played after the start of the fantasy postseason? That would be too late to go back and adjust scores.

As mentioned before what if they play it on week 10 but AJ is out for the season at that point?

So you'd propose perhaps going back a month or more to adjust scores because of this? What a mess. It's week 2 no other teams are on a bye and everyone has plenty of notice. I don't see why teams with Bal & Hou owners need special accomodations. It's no different than a week 2 bye week (assuming the game doesn't get moved)
 
Mortenson just reported it's moved to Week 10. They are both going to have byes Week 2 and HOU week 10 game with Cincy is being moved to Week 8.

 
What if your free agency deadline has passed and you say have on kicker (K Brown) or one TE (O Daniels). Would you give those owners the opportunity to pick someone up so they could field a complete team?? I don't think it can just be bye week end of story

 
Well the only good player is A.Johnson on both of these teams and I wish I had him, other then that no harm done have Brown (kicker) but always get a kicker off ww before 1PM Sunday.

I think your league should open up free agents just for this..but only if they are Balt/Hou players drops.Also most leagues have ww till 1pm Sunday change rules for next year!
 
Houston playing week 8 is going to work out like a champ for team FavreCo. Not only that but they made my decision for me this week between Jennings and Andre Johnson. It's all coming together. :thumbup:

You are acting toolish.Lots of folks with AJ are painfully accepting this, folks in Houston have no electricity and you are crowing about how great it is for you.No one cares about your team but you.AJ was the #5 WR on my leagues custom cheatsheet here at FBG. This really hurts those who have him (like me).Show a little class.

It's funny Otto how you can tell a poster that nobody cares about about his team but himself..and then you state (Lots of folks with AJ are painfully accepting this and this really hurts those who have him (like me)..Who cares if they don't have AJ then..same chit what you told FavreCo...you make no sense!
