    Royal Crownes
    Flat Cranks
    Brainz
    Bounty's 40oz Crew
    Rob's Fumblers

    Live draft is Sun Aug 28 2:00pm Central.

    The other 3 teams from last year only have 1 week to sign back up before we start looking for replacements.

    past results...

    I may have to do what I did in another league.

    I drafted guys folks' never heard of, during the draft in live chat I had a bunch of other guys drafting get all over my a**, asking if I was serious, if I knew what I was doing, that I was an insult to their league.
    And I don't have to tell you I finished 13-3 and won the championship! LOL

    Woo-hoo! :)

    The Flat Cranks look pretty darn good to me ;)

    [But, there's something wrong - Aren't 2008 & 2010 reversed?]

    And, we don't have the *stupid* Hall of Fame game this year :)

    A little surprised the season didn't get lengthened.

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Draft Date saved on my iPhone!

    Can we play fractional points this year? So if a running back gets 87 yards that's 8.7 points instead of just 8.

    hmm, other thoughts? I think everything has worked fine on default, but open to ideas.

    Didn't you also propose this last year?

    I guess I can argue it both ways;

    - "Swings & roundabouts" - Should even out over the course of the season.
    - Why not? [I believe the commish can simply change the setup to allow fractional points?]

    It is kinda frustrating when your guys have got, say, 89 and 99 yards & you just needed one more point for the win!......

    *If* it's an easy change in the setup, why not?

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Very true!..... Fair comment.

    I'll go with whatever the majority decides (assuming the change is a no brainer?)

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Rob, if it is easy to deploy, I'm not against it. If it adds more work for you, then I say no.

    Guys, keep in mind it goes both ways: some of you will win by .5 of a point, but that means some of you will LOSE by .5 of a point. Makes me no diff.

    +1

    I guess the Q becomes, 'would any results have changed'?

    Kinda sounds like Brainz may have got screwed, but beyond that? :)

    Ha, I've experienced both winning by a .1 and losing by .1. I prefer fractional points, but am fine with any decision.

    Alrighty then! It's on!

    The mighty Flat Cranks aim to repeat, or at least *again* finish on the podium...... :)

    Let the trash talking begin! ;)

    No, we don't do that here, what do you think this is, a McLaren site?


    I just wish we had enough interst in a Salary Cap league as well as a 'regular' draft league.
