My strategy of drafting Pitta and Lions defense because of BYU players combined with not even knowing Welker was suspended will propel me to the top of this league.

I'm gonna lmao if Gordon's suspension is waived after picking him up in every league a week ago
"We don't want players to suffer because the union and league couldn't get it done before the league year," Smith said. He's essentially referring to Josh Gordon, who is suspended indefinitely for failed drug tests, and Wes Welker, who is suspended four games for amphetamines. It's a glimmer of hope for both players, but it's small part of a much larger negotiation with tons of moving parts as the two sides try to revamp the overall policy. The talks have been described as "fragile." At this point, Gordon remains a stash-and-pray kind of fantasy option.It's a slim chance, but a chance nonetheless.
Thanks Rams defense. Negative .8 points for me.
Assholes, this wouldn't have happened if you didn't cut Michael Sam.

Poor Frank. Tough day!The win I had to knock you out of the playoffs is forever.
I got paid doe
Wait a minute, Psycho Crushers knocked me out of the playoffs last year. What are you talking about

Fuck, I knew I forgot to put a transaction cap in the settings. This is what happens when you write a league charter months in advance... and forget where you wrote it down.
Unless Rashard Jennings runs for 400 yards, I should be on my way to a week 1 win.
Frank did you ever send out payment info?

Frank did you ever send out payment info?I e-mailed it on Thursday night leaguewide via Yahoo. Check the account you listed on Yahoo.
sorry frankIt took two injuries for you to have a chance. But considering your history vs. me maybe you should take it and run.
Come on now, even with a full game from Tate and Reed it might not have worked out! I still got Green left to play, and im up by 20! You would have had to have gotten @15 points each from them likely.
Also: RIP Konex

You would have had to have gotten @15 points each from them likely.Tate had 6/41 in a quarter and a half. Considering what the other 2 backs did, 13-15 FP from Tate was probable. Reed checked out early and lost out of all of RGIII's check downs.
Also: RIP Konex
I may not have won, but it would have gone down to your TE. But at least it's Week 1, gotta prepare for next week.
is the waiver pickup "budget" per week or per season?Season. Spend wisely and when in doubt, read Yahoo! or other Fantasy Football sites on how to use FAAB.
well shit i put in a bid waaaay too high then.is the waiver pickup "budget" per week or per season?Season. Spend wisely and when in doubt, read Yahoo! or other Fantasy Football sites on how to use FAAB.
well shit i put in a bid waaaay too high then.Judging by the FAAB bids... a few people did. :shock: I'm not sure ScythD knows how FAAB works.
EDIT: He just blew through his whole budget after one week... oh jesus christ.
i thought there were be far more action on Bishop Sankey. I know he didn't get in the game much in week 1 but he's by far the most talented back in the Titans' backfield. Not one single bid other than mine.

At least he got a high value talent
There's no way he did those moves intentionally, I'm contacting him and asking him if he wants to retract both moves. He'll lose out on the players though.
At least he got a high value talent:?

EDIT: [size=50]Four people did not contact me back before the 1st deadline, meaning on Sunday/Monday penalties will go into effect. They now have 5 days to avoid the 2nd penalty, which is loss of a victory.[/size]

I don't like these Deadline penalties that you decided to impose the day of/before the dues were due. Not everyone checks their email frequently, or they might have real life shit kicking them in the balls like 13-hour workdays or something. That's just going to make sure that whoever missed the deadline NEVER pays up and quits the league after you zero out their points. Those should have been made clear and communicated long ago.

I'm going to be very blunt right now.
[size=50]I have sent at least eight different notices via Yahoo E-Mail, Yahoo league page, Yahoo Commissioner Note, League Dues page, chat during the draft, E-mails right after the draft, NeoGAF PMs, SLAENT, and any other communique I could think of. OVER FUCKING EIGHT DIFFERENT ONES. Not to mention before these people joined I contacted them via the same channels and they had no problem contacting me before. Again, these people are guys who are veterans and a) have been visiting Yahoo during said time to check their teams b) posting on NeoGAF c) posting here. In fact, all four of the non-payers were active on two of those sites in the last 5 days I sent these mails (cloudy was until he got banned recently), some all 3. All the while I'm doing this while dealing with two potential lawsuits against a slumlord and a asshole realtor company, and trying to move into a new apartment with a possible stress fracture in one foot. So I apologize if I'm coming off as "mean" since my real life issues are trivial, but how many leagues have you been in that wouldn't have just kicked people out by now? I don't want to kick anyone out, and that's why I'm doing this. Before everyone joined I told them upfront what the buy-in was and the grace period for paytment, and I actually extended it. I even said just to contact me back about payment and how everything is going, not to pay tonight (thanks balddemon). So far from the people remaining I've received radio silence... you have to be fair to the people who put money down early, and that's what I'm doing.
Also, I'm not zeroing their weekly totals; that would be counterproductive. I said I'd zero their highest-scoring player; reason is that it may or may not cost them a win, but IF they have missed every method of communique I sent them they'll notice a zero in one of their players boxscores and contact me ASAP. I've told everyone who joined that Yahoo! and this site are the primary means of communication. If they ignore both, I'm not sure how that's on me.[/size]
Kate Upton is fucking hot...
Anyway once they FINALLY contact me back we can work something out, but until then I'm in a holding pattern here.
I dunno about you, Franky, but I haven't received any emails at all regarding payment.PLEASE for the love of god tell me the account you linked on Yahoo! is your primary e-mail that you check. Because that's the account Yahoo! links to the league.
EDIT: and of course that's the case. :o Also you've been active here, you never checked the League thread once?
I understand all that, but penalties like that should have been communicated long before, not a day before.
So I talked to people on a few other forums about this and pretty much they say even though I may be correct that I wasn't contacted, the buy-in may not be worth the hassle of minor penalties. Also taking into account what happened with Adam Blade, I'm going to push back the date another week to Friday, September 19. I just ask you guys to please remember what I sent you when you joined: This forum (and obviously Yahoo! League) is the primary source to talk and do trade crap in, that's why I wanted everyone to register here so they don't get shut out. You guys gotta check here at least every other day or so.
Again, disregard my last post/e-mail/whatever about penalties. New deadline is Friday September 19th. The next one after that is September 26th, and will involve losing your team. I would think 3 weeks without any communication while managing one's team is more than enough slack.
