NFL Fantasy Football - GAABoard Superbowl 2023

[DrinkingHarp]

I have 50+ points more than the 1st place team but have the most points scored against me in my division leaving me at 1-3.
Waiting for the bye weeks now to shoot ahead here the next month or so.

[Capt Pat]

The advantage is you get a good waiver pick every week even though you have the best team already. Soon your team will be unbeatable.

Things take a wrinkle here now as we head into the bye week portion of the season. It becomes less about picking matchups and more about skillful use of the waiver wire as well as availability and backups in your roster. This is where the draft gets tested

If the season ended today, the Playoffs in the Superbowl would see the top ranked Smackdown Clowns face off against the #4 L'Esprit de Biff while the #2 Faithful Turfmen 'B' would be facing the GalwayBay Tribesmen in a repeat of last weekends tussle. The Helmets, Bills, Tramps and Warriors would be facing the drop.

In the 'B' division, the promoted teams and playoff hopefuls would be Craigyhill Terrors, Ruthless Rossies, Red Hand Helmets and Revis and Butthead, while O'Neill's Chargers, Rehab is 4 Quitters, Captain Pat's Vikings and the Crossmaglen Hitmen would be plying their trade in 'C' next year.

The Jerry Rice Championship would be between the Oraisteach's Browns, puppet master, Savage Bears and North Antrim Nuggets, and these 4 would be looking at promotion to the 'B' division.

Something i noticed in the scoring that i think should be changed for next year, its very minor though. A blocked kick is only worth 2 points to the player that blocked it, think this should be 4 points, the same as a forced fumble as the result of both is a loose ball...
As i said its very minor but it could cost someone in a close matchup...

[AZOffaly]

Good point Declan. I think the reason is that this was always a 'team' stat rather than an individual one, and so when they added it I must have missed it. I would normally give more points for a named person making those plays rather than the 'team'.

Of course I could have missed it from Day 1 (7 years ago) but I'm not sure it was there then.

[magpie seanie]

Ballyhaise Bills fairly made up for me taking guys ahead of him in the draft with this weeks waiver wire. Totally screwed me over.

I've some decent RB cover on my bench especially Michael Bush who will be a top 6 RB when Run DMC gets injured but I need help at WR/TE. Anyone got any proposal for me?

[the Deel Rover]

I have made one small change on all leagues as well. I've added a Roster Spot for IR. (Injury Reserve). Basically if on of your players is on IR, or goes on IR, you can put him in here so you don't take up a roster spot, but you don't have to get rid of him.

Generally speaking IR means you're gone anyway, but occasionally lads come off IR after the season starts.

i can't find this roster spot at all 

[AZOffaly]

It's actually pointless for our leagues anyway because it's not a keeper league, as I realised belatedly. What you can do is select the guy you want to move, and you'll see a new blank spot open up.

[magpie seanie]

Fcuk Jahvid Best anyway. He'll probably sprain a nail next week and be out for the season but when he is playing the real and my Bears he breaks off an 88 yard TD run. Hate that. GGrrrrrrrrrrr.

[AZOffaly]

I won the local derby this week, but with a fairly poor return. It's noticeable the scores dropping off with the bye weeks.

Wait til week 7. I'll be lucky to fill out my roster!

Does anybody give a read to the Fantasy message boards on the Yahoo fantasy football homepage? I read one yesterday evening where in a ten team league over half of the league voted to change the scoring settings, so after drafting & playing 5 weeks the commissioner changed all the settings. Some guy went from 4-1 to 1-4. The commissioner went from 1-4 to 5-0...
They had all paid $30 each into the league...
Good thing our commish is the bees knees
