WIS V All-Time Baseball Draft: HARRRRRRRIFIC (2 Viewers)

[Funkley]

CFN fantasy rankings are up.  They look pretty poor to me, although they do use a different scoring system than we do.

Could you link it please?

There are about 6 different links. They are all on the top of the front page of Collegefootballnews.com.

Nevermind. I got too it. I was a little worried about going there from work because of the gambling add's & pop ups.

 

[Funkley]

Interesting QB rankings and the order of the top backs is different than I'd seen other places.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Interesting QB rankings and the order of the top backs is different than I'd seen other places.

Very disappointed in their fantasy presentation...I love the site and think it provides a ton of great info on all the teams, but the following surprised me:

SCORING SYSTEM

KEEP IT SIMPLE. NCAA stats are always sketchy at best, and if you're planning on finding the totals from a backup Eastern Michigan RB, you’ll need to make it as basic as possible. If you want to throw yards into the mix, here's the Collegefootballnews.com Scoring System, which you can use as the official source to base your league:

Passing: Once again, keep it as easy as possible. Don’t add in interceptions and don't get too screwy with other odd pass ratings. Running QBs can be a nightmare to score.

- 3 points per touchdown pass.

- 1 point for every 50 yards passing.

- 1 point for every two-point-conversion pass.

Rushing: (keep in mind this applies to QBs and WRs too)

- 6 points for TD

- 3 points for every 50 yards rushing

- 2 points for every two-point-conversion

Receiving: (keep in mind this applies to RBs too)

- 6 points per TD

- 3 points for every 50 yards receiving

- 2 points for every two-point-conversion

Kicking: (this is obvious)

- 1 point per extra point, 3 points per field goal

Defense: Please do not use defenses unless you’re a die-hard player.

- Total points. You lose one point for every point your D gives up. This might take you into the negative point total, but that's part of the deal.

It's really not that hard guys...Also, take their rankings with a grain of salt given the above system, which favors running QBs big time over passing QBs and TDs over yards for RBs and WRs...

 

[Funkley]

Wow....they make it sound like we're scoring this by hand out of the newspaper.

Quinn and Harrell in the '2nd tier' of QB's is just dumb. And having Johnson at #2 while admitting that he may not even be the starter?!?!?! WTF as the kids like to say.

 

[RnR]

I actually like the poor rankings. Leaves many without a crutch.

 

[RnR]

Anybody notice any oddities in the schedule this year? I'm trying to address these things prior to the season starting this year.

I'd like to firm up the rules by tomorrow, so let's clear up any issues people may have.

Who scores a fantasy league like that anyways? In the past years, I thought their fantasy rankings were pretty decent. This year, they look awful.

Here is an e-mail I received from the GoalLine guy. Looks like we won't be able to combine the last two weeks.

Hello to everyone - there is a mix of old and possible new commissioners in this email, but hopefully everyone has a basic understanding of the web site and how it works, and this email will make sense.I'm making a few changes to the site this year and for the most part, these changes have to do with making things a little bit easier to manage on my end. First off, here are the list of stat categories that will be available. Some from last season have been removed:INDIVIDUALRushing - attempts, yards, TDs, TDs over 50Receiving - catches, yards, TDs, TDs over 50Passing - completions, attempts, TDs, TDs over 50Returns - TDs, TDs over 502 pt conversions - rushing, receiving, passingPK - extra points, FG 0-19, 20-29, 30-39,...50-59, 60+, total FG yardsDEFENSEReturns - TDs, TDs over 50 (includes kick returns, INT/Fumble returns, etc)InterceptionsSacksFumble recoveriesSafetiesPoints Against - OVERALL ONLY - (offense only not included)You can make combinations of the above, such as rushing + receiving yards. A few items have been left off from last year - again, to make things a little easier. There should be a "Commissioner Override" function - where you can add/subtract from a score if you want to change it because of stats not supported above.All 119 Division I-A teams will be available, and you may use any combination of them.There will be the ability to set a tie-breaker player in your lineup (this will be a player who is NOT starting).Last year a big headache from my side of things came with the combining of weeks. I ended up splitting the site into seven different sites, which was a maintenance nightmare. This year, the NCAA goes to 12 games on a permanent basis, and I have decided that I will not allow combining weeks anymore. Weeks will begin on Thursday and end on Wednesday (see ESPN.com schedule). Week #14 is the Dec 2nd games. Week #15 will include all bowl games, if you wish to play that week. It is easy enough to skip weeks for your league, but for my sanity, I can't split them up anymore. I hope this doesn't throw anyone a curve, but it's just too difficult to manage.Pricing - see www.goallinesoftware.com for pricing, but by now, you know that is for entering your own stats - which I think worked pretty well last season. I investigated an option to have the stats automatically entered for 2006, but I was not comfortable with the set-up. I will, however, give you the option for having stats for your league entered for you. That option will be $8.00 per fantasy team (free agent stats still not supported).So, let me know if you have any questions, if you'll be returning, etc. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have. Hope to hear from everyone soon!DaveEmail: goalline@goallinesoftware.comWeb: www.goallinesoftware.com

So maybe we just freeze transactions going into that week so we're not just dropping guys to double up?

 

[RnR]

Right, I was thinking we just kill the Waiver Wire sometime in mid-November. Everyone should be able to manage their team without it at that point.

 

[RnR]

Also, it seems they are offering an opportunity to have our league scored for $8 a team rather than $3. Interesting.

Would you guys be open to...

$50 league + $8 site fee?

That would give us...

1st- 300

2nd- 150

3rd- 100

4th- 50

... and all of our teams scored all year long for $58 a person.

I doubt it's even remotely close. Way too many good players this time around. It's all random.

I was just looking at the College league standings from last year, Jag what won it for you(for the most part)? Waiver pick ups? Draft? Poor competition? Luck? Or did you actually know what you were doing?

[UlyssesNorris]

At some point way back in this thread, someone asked about how badly the sim punished a player for one poor stat. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you--Juan Marichal!

IP: 115.0

WHIP: 1.54

OAV: .298

HR: 40

ERA: 8.06

When I drafted him, I thought having HR dimensions of 0, -1 would be enough to counter the occasional HR. Perhaps if I can put a fence around, say, Rhode Island next time and call it my park I'll draft Juan again.

I know I was in the bottom 12, not sure where, but 18 sounds about right. BTW I think low BB/9 pitchers this time were entirely overrated.

I would say experience played a big part in it, although I was awfully surprised how well most of you did last year considering most hadn't ever played in a college league. Prior to this league last year, I think I had played college fantasy football for 4 years. I would say that's quite a bit more experience than most had. Other than that, I hit on a few of my sleepers (missed on a bunch as well) and had some help from the WW.

HR numbers are all over the map for me. My home park is -2, -2, so I felt more comfortable taking guys with some HRs allowed. But here are my stats so farRuss Ford '10, RL HR/9+=96, Sim HR Allowed 10

Sandy Koufax '63, RL HR/9+=144, Sim HR Allowed 36

Their IP are pretty close

The only suggestion I would make is to make TOs 2 pts instead of 3, now thast we have sacks in there...Not a huge thing, but throwing it out there...

Also, what about the whole double dipping on Special Teams TDs?

Personally I think that if I draft Desmond Howard and the Michigan D/ST, both should get 6 points for a return TD...I drafted both for a reason...

This is the way it was scored last season and will be scored this season.If you have Desmond Howard... you get 6 pts for a ST TD.

If you have the Michigan DEF/ST... you get 6 pts for a ST TD.

That's why I list SPECIAL TEAMS TD as its own seperate scoring category.

Agreed. By just about all of us. I had a few high BB/9 guys and was worried about them big time... they have faired ok. Meanwhile, my deadballers who are at 1.5BB/9 in real life are still giving up a ton of walks. In a live game a few days back, Pete Alexander walked 4 guys in a row.

Agreed. By just about all of us. I had a few high BB/9 guys and was worried about them big time... they have faired ok. Meanwhile, my deadballers who are at 1.5BB/9 in real life are still giving up a ton of walks. In a live game a few days back, Pete Alexander walked 4 guys in a row.

my team walks everyone regardless of low BB/9 or high BB/9.

Also, what about the whole double dipping on Special Teams TDs?

Personally I think that if I draft Desmond Howard and the Michigan D/ST, both should get 6 points for a return TD...I drafted both for a reason...

This is the way it was scored last season and will be scored this season.If you have Desmond Howard... you get 6 pts for a ST TD.

If you have the Michigan DEF/ST... you get 6 pts for a ST TD.

That's why I list SPECIAL TEAMS TD as its own seperate scoring category.

Right, but what if I have Desmond Howard and the Michigan D/ST?Last year we said you only get credit once, but that doesn't make any sense to me...

Really? That doesn't make any sense. It'll count for each seperately this season.

The only suggestion I would make is to make TOs 2 pts instead of 3, now thast we have sacks in there...

Not a huge thing, but throwing it out there...

The only problem I have with this is that a turnover is more valuable than a sack. I'd be open to TO's being worth 2 and sacks being worth 1 if you guys think there are too many points to be had in defense, but I really think the TO should hold more weight than the sack.
