    Nobody's talking about the HOF game cancelled?

    Well that seems unfair too. They should let every team play 5 games.

    Arent the Colts and Packers going to be 25% less prepared for the regular season than all the other teams now? That hardly seems fair.

    beer just doesn't do it for me

    I just feel bad for mmmmm.......beer. He tries really hard to be you guys friends and you all just totally rip on him in this thread. Wiff: Im sure if you had just let beer know privately that he wasnt doing it for you anymore, instead of shaming him in public like this, he would have made an attempt to "freshen up" your relationship. You know maybe take a romantic vacation or trying a new position or something. But...now....sheesh....i wouldnt blame him if he left you forever.

    12G1C: Now with 100% more post draft waivers.

    Whatever. A guy wins a couple of 10 dollar public leagues and all of a sudden he is a high rolling juggernaut. :rollseyes:

    12G1C: Now with 100% more post draft waivers.

    I mean to each his own, but ESPN is a million times worse IMO. One caveat, ive only ever played in Dynasty leagues on FF. Positives: - Its free - The leagues are fairly customizable in terms of league size, starting lineups, roster size, scoring, and support auctions, FAAB and traditional waiver systems - It has a dark theme so i dont have to burn my retinas out staring at a white screen all day long. - The league pages dont shut down in the offseason and flow seamlessly into the next season. League URL's dont change from year to year, there is no "renewing" a league. My bookmarks didnt change for 2016 from my 2015 leagues, or 2014 leagues. - The league pages are layed out fairly intuitively. - I get a neat organized page with all my teams listed (assuming i use the same account to join all the leagues) with all activity that has occurred since the last time i checked in. All messages, trades, waivers, cuts, are clearly marked on this page. - Im not a big mobile app guy, but the FF league pages work well with my phone Negatives - There is an idiosyncrasy in the drafting procedure that can cause consternation (and this would only be an issue with Dynasty or Keeper leagues).....basically they dont let you drop players during the draft to accommodate players or draft picks you gain during the draft. If you started with 5 open roster spots, you get 5 picks. If you start with a 1,2,3,4,5 and gain two 3's during the draft, you forfeit your 4 and 5. Well you can still trade them away, but you cant drop a 6th and 7th player in order to use them, if you want. - The player lists can be a little weird...sometimes players that have been out of the league for a couple of years are still on there, while newer prominent players are not. (Clarification: Most NFL players are in the system, but for some reason if you just sort the lists for WR, sometimes not every name will show up. But if you search specifically for a player, you can usually find them) - Stat lists are pretty incomplete. But there are tons of stats online - League pages not terribly customization in terms of look or aesthetics.

    12G1C: Now with 100% more post draft waivers.

    Just as an aside, we woke up this morning in a couple of my Dynasty leagues with three owners who had all pulled up stakes and left in both of them. I am not the commish in either of these, just an owner trying to help out. So if anyone is interested in taking over an orphan let me know. They are both free leagues on fleaflicker. Unfortunately the rookie draft has already occurred for both of these leagues.

    Deep Sleeper WR's

    The thing to remember about Ellington was he went to So Carolina to play basketball, and wasnt even on the football team his true freshman year. And he was a QB in high school. His second year decided he missed football and joined the team He was primarily a kick returner that year. His focus was still basketball though. His second and third year he played football around his basketball schedule. It wasnt really until his last year at USC that he really committed to football. So when he got drafted he had basically been a WR for 2 seasons. He was extremely raw, and is probably still learning the position. But he has always been a crazy athlete.

    OK so we are all in. Sorry tanatastic. Maybe next year. This is the first time we've ever had all 12 owners come back the next season i think. Anyway, i went ahead and did the draft order, so Old Maid will stop whining about it. southcarolina has used the FFToolbox.com random draft order generator for the 12Geeks1Cup2016 league. To verify the results visit this page: http://www.fftoolbox.com/draft_order_generator.cfm?id=129432 The following draft order was randomly generated for your league: 1 - herbivore 2 - posty 3 - voltaire 4 - vuduchile 5 - oldmaid 6 - mooks 7 - whitewonder 8 - southcarolina 9 - heavyset 10 - gocolts 11 - djgb 12 - shotsup I chose the morning of Tuesday August 23rd as the official start of the draft, which would be the morning after the Monday night game of Preseason Week2, But since this has gone so smoothly if we want to start it earlier i suppose we can. The draft went pretty smoothly last year, i dont even think i ever turned the timer on, so dont see any reason to force the start of the draft to be earlier. But if the guys drafting at the top get an itchy trigger finger, i can always start the draft early. Weve got time to talk abvout it.
