Frank my man ~~

Ya gonna luv me ~~ You not only goin to win but you are gonna have a shut-out ~~ Trust me ~~ Wait till ya see my line-up ~~ As I said before ~~ When I get beat in a regular match its a shut-out with the players I have ~~ Everyone I have played so far ~~ their reserves almost out scored me & the week before I lost to eight player roster & even then their reserves almost out scored me again ~~ Na ~~ I'm finished~~ Now that I know how to play fantasy football ~~ The top 6 teams have all the good plyers & most of them have better reserves than my active players ~~ Ya gonna like your win when ya see my line-up ~~

Forgot to add ~~ Won't be home this weekend ~~ Gonna go meet Len & his lovely wife in Key West ~~ I know I'll be plastered by Saturday evenin ~~ I have way toooooooo many friends in Key West so my liver won't be-up to par by Sunday ~~

No matter what you do to your line up your going to score more than me. I have top names that get top money but like the press better. Look at TO if he played like he shoots his mouth off I would be OK. My Defense I keep a changing and it keeps a going down a. My Quarterbacks don't know which team to throw to. And if you ask some of my running backs for the ball they will hand you the ball, So what if you are on the other team. MY wide receivers put grease on there gloves to help with the slippage of the ball.
We should make a bet on which one of us loses.

It looks like we have enough interest for a league next year. So I have a few questions to ponder while things are fresh in our minds. We have several months before any decisions have to be made.

1. Keep the same number of teams
2. Have a keeper league (keep 1 or 2 players from this years team. The players should play different positions)
3. Switch to a new host (CBS, Yahoo, ESPN...)

If you have any questions or thoughts please do so.

How about Drafting in reverse order of 2006 Standings for new season? Last place owner drafts first.

Some type of game tie breaker.

5 point bonus points for running back, and WR going over 100 yards.

10 teams is good.

I love my team so the more we keep the better, others may not feel that way. I like the 'different positions' rule for keepers. Never saw that before.

I suggest that we add negative points for interceptions, negative rushing and receiving yardage. Also, if the defense gives up more than a certain number of yards they should lose points. I don't think the points allowed should be part of the defensive points, that doesn't take into account interception/fumble returns, the defense has nothing to do with that but pays the price for those points being scored.

I also have used a different field goals system in the past that I like, although I really have no problem with the system in use right now. We used the first digit in the field goal yardage as the number of points, a 19 yard field goal was 1 pt, it's really no more than a extra point, right? A 20-29 yarder was 2, and so on....

That's my 2 cents....

Mike,

Here are my answers, suggestions, thoughts.

1. I like 10 teams, keep it at that number
2. Not sure about keeper leauge; I think I'd rather have everyone make a decision on their draft picks and having all players available.
3. I have had no problems with CBS but I know there have been problems. I would go with any others that other players may recommend. I'm not tied to CBS.

Scoring changes/thoughts.

Penalties to quarterbacks for fumbles and interceptions
Penalties to running backs for fumbles
Would like to have the flex position to include RB, WR, TE
Have mandatory 2 WR and 1 TE plus flex position

I have enjoyed doing this. It's my first time and it was good.

I like Mike's suggestions. I do not favor a keeper system - I would rather re-draft all new teams. I like CBS Sportsline (even though they had some problems) I think they have an excellent website and overall I think it worked well. I would like some form of random draw (system) for draft order.

[HappyTrails Member Find all posts View Profile Close HappyTrails]

I just saw the moves by Conch Man - doesn't really seem to be in the spirit of good competition (and gives some advantages to certain teams with waiver priority). Maybe a rule should be added to prevent this from occurring again or to freeze affected players from being picked up.
