Twelve will enter, one will leave victorious*. The live draft is currently scheduled for Monday September 1st at 9p EDT. When draft day gets closer, we'll get a better idea of whether or not that day and time works for everybody.

i've gone w/out fantasy football for too long. i'm in this year.
― Mordy, Saturday, 31 May 2014 03:16 (nine years ago) link
Cool. Welcome back!
I kept the stats pretty much the same as in the last few seasons, except qb interceptions and fumbles now take away -0.5 per incident. Also, I shaved it from 3 IDPs to 2 and reduced the bench spots from 8 to 6 so we're not just left with scrubs to pick from in the final rounds.

i am looking at the point settings. it looks like if there is a rush or rec TD over 40y you score an extra 7pts?!
also, i think those IDP point changes must be new this year right? roll that shit back imo.

btw, Yahoo! is having HUGE problems with drafts this season: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fantasy-football/SLN24810.html?impressions=true
― Everyone's a closet ned. (Johnny Fever), Monday, 25 August 2014 16:41 (nine years ago) link
that's not encouraging
― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 25 August 2014 16:53 (nine years ago) link
sorry, i should've been more specific about IDP scoring. i was questioning tackle and tackle assist points. so right now we have:
Tackle Solo 1.5Tackle Assist 1Sack 1Interception 1 Fumble Force 1 Fumble Recovery 1
i am pretty sure tackles/assists have always been 1/0.5 and that seems better to me. it is hard to weight the other things correctly but maybe sacks at 1.5 and ints at 2? forced/recovered fumble getting 2 point overall seems fine.

I wonder if those are reverse-points leagues like we tried one year where the lowest possible score is the winner.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 17:23 (nine years ago) link

None of those four guys had any stats last year
― polyphonic, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 18:33 (nine years ago) link
except shankings
in 2007 my friend drafted curtis martin in the 1st round, 2 years after he retired, and a decade after he played for NE, which was the reason he knew the name. 2nd round he drafted tom brady. brady had a decent year and my friend won that league.
to be fair, i question why curtis martin was still on the system to draft, but even so.
― Roberto Spiralli, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 18:39 (nine years ago) link
I think they keep "stars" around in the machinery for a couple seasons so they're available in case they un-retire. see: Tony Gonzalez, Brett Favre, etc.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 23 September 2014 19:32 (nine years ago) link
devin hester or golden tate at WR 3?
― Mordy, Thursday, 2 October 2014 03:02 (nine years ago) link
this is a league that counts return yards which makes hester plausible

Hey for next season I think we should maybe consider tinkering with the pt values for receiving yds/receptions and return yds. right now that a random return dude who gets 130 return yds is way more valuable than a WR who gets 130 receiving yds off of 8 receptions for example.
Or for another example I was just looking at my team and spiller had a pathetic 19 rushing yds and 50+ return yds, and he scored more pts for me than reed at TE, who had 8 catches for 92 yds. Not trying to rock the boat, and maybe it was discussed before and I missed it. And maybe there's a totally defensible reason for the way it is (I mean I kinda do like having random return dudes be heroes for a day.). I'm just putting it out there for 2015.

Jeff Saturday: I'd never call him myself to bug him, because I'd hate to call in any friendly favors, but hopefully this article gets back to him so he knows I need him to throw it to Double-8s out there -- maybe 20-plus points or so? My team needs to pick it up, so that'd help a lot.
It's funny, though, in my year with the Packers I was in a fantasy league with the rest of the offensive line.
Berry: Wait ... you played while you were still in the league? That's hilarious. Any other Packers on the team or was it just the offensive line? You ever try to influence anything for your fantasy team?
Saturday: We didn't let anybody else in the league. It was our thing, you know? Just a good way for our position group to have fun together. But I had Aaron Rodgers on my team. So in the huddle sometimes I'd say, "Hey, we don't need to run the ball here, let's make sure we throw it in. My team needs some points!"
Berry: That is fantastic. Did Rodgers ever listen to you?
Saturday: Nah, he never would. This is our business we're talking about. But we did have fun with that league.
