HBT Fantasy Football League

Since I mentioned him derisively, he'll probably score 30 points for you tonight.

He cannot continue to be this sucky for the entire year, can he?
Dude was a legitimate HOF candidate coming into the beginning of the season.

I really should call him and apologize for drafting him. If I hadn't drafted him, he'd be doing great this season.

 

[Andrikos]

It's OK, it was autodraft, so you probably didn't really mean it...

 

[WesleyS]

Haha it actually might improve his aim

It certainly wouldn't hurt his aim.

 

[NIZZLE]

That's great and all but when it comes to massive quantities of awesome beer, I'm an equal opportunity asskicker.

See you in week 11, Hello (Seinfeld voice).

PS Vinegar on BBQ, come on now!

Could you please watch you mouth in this thread sir!

 

[Andrikos]

Could you please watch you mouth in this thread sir!

What, you like vinegar on your BBQ?
NIZZLE, I'm disapointed.

 

[WesleyS]

Could you please watch you mouth in this thread sir!

I know. I can't believe anyone would say the "a" word. On the Internet. In a forum. While trash talking. We need more moderation in this thread!

I only need Eli to throw about 200 yards and four touchdowns to Myers to pull out the win. I'm feeling confident!

And I'll be rooting against this. Stranger things...

 

[finsfan]

So im projected to actually win this week, which means AP will fumble about 10 times and randoll will score 3 touchdowns. Im screwed

 

[Andrikos]

Hey, am I reading this wrong?

ONLY FOUR teams (out of 20!) will make it to the playoffs?
That seems a bit strict, no?

 

[BGBC]

Well, with Matt Shaub inactive yesterday, I didn't have a choice.

I'm having a QB sale. Anyone who needs one is welcome to shop my supply.

Nope, just top 4. Next year, we'll actually think about the rules for the league.

Is it possible to make this League a Legacy League?

Is it possible to make this League a Legacy League?

What's a legacy league? Is that like a keepers league? If so I vote no. Some of us are dealing with an auto draft or a team drafted by someone else, it doesn't leave us with a ton of trade value players.

And furthermore it's a 20 team league, there are hardly any pick ups worth anything at all on waivers to replace those who are in prison or worse, are Eli

 

[Andrikos]

Good points, but if, say, 4-8 teams drop out we can have a draft of the available players.
From my autodrafted team my 2nd and 3rd round picks have played 5 quarters of football combined.

 

[BGBC]

Suck it NFL.com

 

[TNGabe]

I actually like the 20 team format. We just need to get some other good HBTers to fill empty slots and fix rules.

Well shoot, everything looks good from the #1 spot...

I don't mind the 20 team format but I think making it a keeper league would make the 20 team format much more difficult

whats a keeper league?

 

[TNGabe]

Well I won't be there much longer. I think the special teams points going to the D sucks, also not a fan of the 4 team playoff. Should be 8 for a league this size. I wouldn't mind to see #2 get some consolation beers, although how to work that out so everyone isn't paying to send beer to two folks, shipping twice etc will take some thought.

 

[Channel66]

Means we keep a certain percentage (or all) of the players on our team for next season, instead of having a full draft next year we'd only have a partial draft.

#'s 17-20 send to #2, #'s 3-16 send to #1?

I've usually heard of designating one or two franchise players.

 

[finsfan]

I wouldnt mind keeping AP for next year

 

[TNGabe]

#'s 17-20 send to #2, #'s 3-16 send to #1?

Problem with that is then #1 might not get best beers. Sure, #1 gets more beers, but if the guy sending Allagash Coolship sucks it up (as an example) and has to to send it to #2, #1 would (or at least should) be pissed.

Yeah I'll be pissed if no one sends me coolship

 

[mcbaumannerb]

I think that's why we decided it was all to the winner. No simple way to ensure it was equitable.

Unless... just an idea, everyone was also in for a bottle of homebrew, winner gets all the commercial beers 2nd gets all homebrew.

Maybe the police will get you some.

Well, hopefully the volume being sent to #1 would even it out overall. I still agree that it would be nice if 1 and 2 both got something, but it would have to be agreed upon by at least a majority at the beginning.

Just like you don't know who is going to be on the bottom sending the beer, you don't know who is going to be on top and what style of beer they would value most.
