I changed it so that 6 teams make the playoffs, top 2 have byes. Playoffs start in week 15 and each match up is only be 1 week long. 6 teams out of 16 making the playoffs seems much more fair than 4.

THIS ALSO SOLVES THE BUY PROBLEM, I FINALLY FIXED IT.[/quote]

so does that put the championship game week 17? i only ask cause teams coasting into the

playoffs and resting starters can really kill a fantasy team, doesnt really matter to me either

way just figured i would bring it up…[/quote]

Didn’t realize that, I hate week 17 championships. But if it’s gotta be that way…

It would have been that way anyways, it just would’ve have been weeks 16 and 17 for the championship, instead of just 17 as it is now. Week 17 has been and always will be a tricky week for fantasy football, it’s just the way it goes.

I’m definitely happy to have the bye weeks eliminated though, as that would have been horrible.

Agreed. I didnt want to wait a whole extra week to have my first matchup. Its just not necessary in FF.

I have P Manning, MJD and a few good other players not bad in my opinion for an auto draft. I hate that I missed the fun but lets get ready to rumble. Cant wait to get home finally and see what people did.

I agree with you Matty I would not draft Vick, also you would have to make sure you have a great back up QB, cause Vick will get hurt at some point.

Haha yea DJHT, I made that comment during the draft, I was like, “Mr. Autodraft is doing quite well for him…”

If Peyton and MJD can overcome their injuries, they could be huge steals.

As far as Vick? I’ll set the over under for number of games he plays this year at 12.

I really hope I get Charles in my other pay league so I can buy his jersey and annoy the crap out of people by rooting for the Chiefs and Niners in DC every week

Yea the injuries have me a little concerned, also my back ups SUCK. Some how I have three fucking kickers? How and the hell does it draft 3 fucking kickers?

Oh yea anybody need a kicker let me know.

I also had to auto draft after my first 3 picks and when i looked at my team later that night i also had 3 kickers. Sadly I am against MattyXL week 1 whom i believe has a very solid team.

Did I seriously draft Roy Williams??? I must have been more thought than I drunk I was

Sorry I only respond to teams that might challenge me, so I haven’t had much to say about you

HAHAHAHA im really not too upset with my team, brady will obviously put up points, jacobs will get me some TD’s, calvin johnson (DUH), maclin meh, moeaki will have an awesome year, top 10 TE, i said it here. saints D, always come to play, and cj spiller i had to take a chance. best well with leshoure out im hoping he gets more carries. happy with my bench too, no big names all potential breakout players, gotta hit with one of em!!

AND last but not least my kicker is A+ material!!!

Chris Johnsons holdout doesnt appear to be ending any time soon.

Titans General Manager Mike Reinfeldt says the team and Johnson are so far apart in their expectations for a new deal that the team isnt even going to bother making a concrete contract offer.

We ve discussed parameters. If we can?t agree on the parameters, theres no sense making offers, Reinfeldt said. If your parameters are different . . . and if you are talking a different language then you are wasting your time. Weve talked to his agent and will continue to talk to his agent.

I know most are betting on a deal done by Wk 1 but this type of preseason warning sign has happened with SJax in '08 and MJD last year as mere whispers. Drafting Ringer may have payed off.

Also on subject, Titans Backing GM Mike Reinfeldt’s stance, Titans owner Bud Adams stated emphatically that Chris Johnson will not receive a new contract offer until he reports to the team.

“I’m not gonna make any offer with the way he’s acting,” said Adams. “Life’s too short.” Asked about the possibility of the standoff lasting into the regular season, Adams replied: “That could be, but that’s his decision. He’s got to make that. I’m not going to interfere. If he doesn’t want to come in and play, then he doesn’t want to come in and play.” With both sides digging in their heels, we’re no longer confident that CJ2K will sign by the week of the season opener.

Btw, do any of you guys do more than 1 league a year? Ive been doing FF for 5 years and I have done more then one every year. So far, our league may be the only one I do since the guys at the station decided not to this year. I may start on for the hell of it because Im used to having more than one.

^who ever got ringer got a winner. I think he can produce in the league, I may be biased since I saw him play at MSU but i like him.

Also i think ill be doing 3 leagues this year.

He was a strong runner in college no doubt and has looked solid in his short starting career. The arrival of CJ pushed him back, which is a shame. I think he can deliver as well but we will see. Harper may fight Riner out of some carries IF CJ isnt there for awhile. Of course for my sake, I hope CJ stays far away.

Have you already drafted in those leagues?

This’ll be my first year doing two. Got a 12 team draft with some Irish guys coming up this Sunday.

I am going to destroy you in week 1. Think chainsaw versus baby rabbit stuffed animal. Does that give you a good mental image?
