This is why non-ppr leagues suck.PPR is the Devil. A byproduct of a byzantine era of trying to give value to WRs when RBs dominated Fantasy Football. That time is over.
my team is garbageHAVE YOU SEEN MY TEAM?
Last week I lost Ben Tate and Jordan Reed with multi-week injuries!
This week I lost RGIII in all probability for the fantasy season!
YOU DON'T SEE ME PANICKING... NO!!!!!

Kickers score more points than a large bulk of RB's and WR's.
:lol: I mean look at "Everyone Wants KCs D" kicker. 19 points? That's more than anyone on my team. Jesus christ you have receivers ranging with 1-6 points.
I subscribe to the Behrens/Pianowki movement of giving kickers fractional scoring. Most leagues on the other forum give Kickers 4 and 5 points for 40 and 50 yarders... why not go the whole route? Kickers are NFL players, treat them like RBs and WRs.
Bailey also kicked 2 40+ FGs, and two 50+ FGs... he deserves dem points.

why is it cloudy never got any of the messages across 3 boards about settings and payment, but posts IMMEDIATELY after I make a change that won't affect past stuff in the league?

Any advice on Joique Bell for Randall Cobb? My league is 2rb/2wr/flex and both would probably slot into the flex spot for me in good weeks.

If you're asking who to start at Flex, then Cobb.
PFF has them scoring the same amount of points the rest of the season though. Yeah, it's a trade and I'm throwing in Benjamin who is my last WR.

Assuming this is a standard league I would do it since I don't value Bell that highly and Cobb is the #2 WR in an explosive offense and gets a lot red-zone looks.
Being cheap wasn't an option for me in the RB department with Martin dinged up and after losing both Moreno and Ingram last weekend.
I had a higher bid than $20 on D. Brown as well on the off chance I missed out on Knile.

Would've been nice to nab Davis and Brown, but I couldn't commit that much to Davis looking at his sched and the fact he may play only 3 games. Brown will get at least 4 and maybe 6 (Mathews is not a fast healer). I'm kicking myself for lowering my bid for New England D from $2 to $1, I would've won on tiebreak.
1% Defense Force $13 (Outbid)
Late Drafters $0 (Outbid)
It doesn't cancel other bids if you win a FAAB bid, and besides Brown was bid on 1st.
EDIT: I will say Uber_Tag getting Knile was the worst outcome of anyone getting him. I was going to make a deal with him centering around a TE of his, now that's dead. :|

It DOES cancel the bids if the slot you had intended to replace them with is suddenly not available.
I had one empty slot free to use on an RB fill-in (either Davis or Brown). Once I secured Davis that slot was no longer available.
I could have had a $20+ bid on D. Brown in place to swap out for Jordan Matthews but I had no intention of dumping that kind of money on Brown if I had Davis already.
So that bid was effectively annulled. Hence why it doesn't show up on the (outbid) charts with the other teams. (I had a $26 bid on him for the record.)
Feel free to pitch your trade offer regardless. I put Gronk on the block for a reason. I have an irrational fixation on a number of players this season so perhaps you have one of them and that door isn't as closed as you think it is.

Knile Davis KC - RB - $51 Winning BidYour comment about "not committing that much to Davis" seeing how he'll play less than D. Brown doesn't compute with the $11 higher bid you placed on him. Clearly you valued him more to some degree. Just not $51 FAAB value. :D
Welkers Molly Dealer $41 (Outbid)
Measure of a Manning $31 (Outbid)
Seasons $20 (Outbid)
1% Defense Force $8 (Outbid)
Everyone wants KCs D $8 (Outbid)
O.Munn's Tight End $3 (Outbid)
Late Drafters $0 (Outbid)

Now that's interesting, because I thought Yahoo lists the FAAB bids in order on the transaction page. That can't be true then, because that would mean Donald Brown was processed before Knile Davis and you would've got Brown. I keep forgetting waiver priority is based on dollars. :oops:

Just not $51 FAAB value. :DMost sites said to spend half your budget to get him, which I wasn't doing at all. I looked at it this way: Have a RB1 type guy for 3 weeks or a RB2 guy for 4-6? If I could have guaranteed Davis would more time (Reid was being murky about Charles' absence), I would've bid MUCH higher... I admit I doubt I would've beat $51 though.
I fucked up my draft so bad for this league.Only way to fix perceived mistakes now is through FAAB, Free Agency or trades. Easier to fix them now than later in the season, get busy!
League Dues list:
Late Drafters -
New Orleans Phoenix - Sent notice about payment.
Already sent both messages via Yahoo and GAF (can't send one to cloudy due to being banned). If they don't at least send notice about their situation tonight they lose their highest scoring players' points.

jamaal charles practiced today. he might (probably won't) play this week haha.Effing KC medical staff. People broke the bank to get Knile Davis, and Charles may sit only a week if he doesn't play this week.
go chiefs
Man, sucks to be Frank. Loses iRG3 last week, loses mccown this week
Tony Romo can be had! Would like a WR upgrade perhaps!

I think I'd rather take Geno Smith off waivers.
Late Drafters team is about 45 minutes away from being penalized as a non-paying team. New Orleans Phoenix sent me a e-mail already, said he'll pay soon.
Yep, sure would be a shame to possibly lose Matt Ryan's 23.39 FP.
12:01 AM EDIT: And he will.

im pretty sure konex is just going to peace the fuck out after that exchange between you and he
I didn't like the way NQ was run, but so far i have to say Frank that i've been disappointed in how everything so far has been handled in this league. The late start, the uncertainty of who was in or out all the way up until draft date, the rescheduling / not rescheduling / rescheduling of the draft date, and now this fight over post-draft scoring changes. Hopefully things will tighten up now that the season is underway.

im pretty sure konex is just going to peace the fuck out after that exchange between you and heI never said I was blameless in this, it's definitely my fault for forgetting the setting for the Roster Limit. But I have a responsibility to the league to run it the way I imagined it run a year ago. Real life issues did fuck up the start of the league and recruiting people down to the wire was maddening, but every piece of info regarding communication was included. I tried to give notice of changes a day or two in advance and later found out people didn't sign up for this forum/connect their e-mail to the league... I can't really help that, that is the first thing you do when joining a league: make sure you're connected to the League Page/forum for all the pertinent info.

As for cloudy not paying, he's a vet of over 6 years or so of Fantasy Football and other sports, and run leagues himself. I've had late issues with paying and I ALWAYS PMed/posted in the league thread/e-mailed him/tried any way to contact him regarding that. Three weeks into the league for someone who checks is team every day and he can't even make up an excuse in an e-mail and say he'll eventually pay? The Roster Limit issue... I spent 2 days going over five years of league data and posting posts just to show him that change didn't affect him in the past or in the future (and it's not affecting him now either) and he said "I'm not reading that". The same guy who said "can't post on SLAENT.com forgot my password, too lazy to reset it lol"? He needs to get over himself and stop acting like he's a victim. If his tunnel vision on the issue means he is going to go, then I wish him the best. I just need to transfer the team over to whomever of the waitlisters will pay 1st.
i'm gonna be 3-0 after this week. and then week 4 i'll get my first loss since half my players on are on bye lol
There's a error with Yahoo! not showing certain e-mails via the league, but NOP and LD have now paid. just waiting on balddemon.

depends what u offer man. i know you're hurtin for players haha. send something.Now that I actually look at it, I don't think we match up well. And I can't trade for Cousins on principle unfortunately.
All good. Only player I would probably want is demariyus Thomas :P and I doubt you'd give him updepends what u offer man. i know you're hurtin for players haha. send something.Now that I actually look at it, I don't think we match up well. And I can't trade for Cousins on principle unfortunately.
Wow my QBs have been terrible this year. Looks like I need to get the 'ol band back together.
just had 2 players carted off the field.Dislocated his hip again, possible fracture.
Poor Pitta.. i think his career is in jeopardy :(
Peyton is the fuckin' GOAT. This game has been amazing, and that last drive might have just cemented a week 3 victory. Going to take a gargantuan effort from both bmarsh and martellus to keep me from a 3-0 start
Antonio Brown is KILLING it so far. I have 19 minutes for Brown/Miller to get me 4.4 points and I get my 1st win.
EDIT: Blount you being a real asshole right now.

my team is such trash its hilariousInjuries are no joke. But at least you have a number of stud pieces who should be back next week (Charles, White) and can turn it around quickly, remember 8 teams make the playoffs in the league.
I on the other hand... lets just say I need to win next week or statistically I may be done.
