OT 2019-2020 RipCityTwo FANTASY FOOTBALL

[BonesJones]

Scrap head to head completely. Scrap playoffs completely. Whoever has the most pts at the end of the season wins. Weekly payouts would be highest scoring team. I hate head to head. Too much luck involved. It's an antiquated way of doing fantasy football, IMO.

Oh no.... I thought you were talking tiebreakers.

The way you suggest is 0 fun whatsoever IMO. "Oh, I need a TD here so I finish 4th in points this week and might have a 0.5% better chance at getting a payout!" Matchups are fun. If your team is good enough you'll win regardless.

Thats like saying the NBA shouldnt have playoffs because teams lile Toronto could get lucky with their path and could get lucky and face injured teams at the right time.

Doing an early season review of updated depth charts and discovered the Green Bay Packers have the best WR names ever:

Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Geronimo Allison and Equanimeous St Brown

 

[BonesJones]

They updated the interface and it looks fresh!!

 

[BonesJones]

@ripcityboy @RipCityWarrior Any interest?

 

[BonesJones]

I'll be defending my title.

PS Thanks for making a rule page.

Learning from last year haha.

 

[BonesJones]

We need just two more from here to have 12 (we could bring back non-members Perez & Schott if y'all want. Or we could roll with 10 and an all-member league.

Still waiting on Franco to get back to me @HailBlazers
Still waiting on VG's wife to let go of the finances enough to allow him to play @VanillaGorilla
@ripcityboy and @RipCityWarrior I believe one of you played last year? Can't remember which. I believe it was @ripcityboy ? Both of y'all are welcome.

If there's someone else you guys can think of to tag, tag them​

Cool with $60

Cool with $60

I'll do 60 too, if I'm honest though I probably wouldn't go much higher than $75. Maybe $100 next year but definitely seems like a lot for fantasy football.

 

[trailblazer18]

I'm good with whatever buy in you set of the options listed.

Also, how about we do this live draft in Las Vegas early next week???? I'll be there, that's the only reason. Won't be able to make it to Portland for a life draft which stinks.

I had a FF draft in Vegas in 2003. I was so hungover on draft day I had to puke between almost every single one of my picks. Won the championship that year hahaha.

$60 is a good amount considering the bonuses I just dont want to scare anyone away.

I would play a standard rules league. Not a fan of two Quarterbacks.

If we have 12 then we'd have only one QB. If you play we'd be looking at a 12 team league.

 

[BonesJones]

@dviss1 @HailBlazers I'm putting you guys down. We have 11 including Perez and 12 if RipCityWarrior plays.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Ive got a pretty packed month in terms of weekends being busy, I’ll try to make a live draft if we have one, but I will need probably 3-4 days notice so I can make sure kids have baby sitting, and I rearrange schedules around it

Sure thing Capn.

I like this. Let me know if anyone objects.

Make 1st $210. Give $100 to charity?

$210 is too little for first. If people want to give to charity they can do so themselves.

 

[RipCityWarrior]

60$ buyin? I am game to participate!

 

[BonesJones]

We currently have 12 participants, but one is a non-forum member. So if you want to play, then this is your last chance to say so!

For everyone else playing (@trailblazer18, @HAAK72, @HailBlazers, @dviss1, @RipCityWarrior, @TorturedBlazerFan, @BoBoBREWSKI, @The Professional Fan), I'm circling three dates for our draft. August 18th, 24th, and 25th.

I want to have an in-person draft, and I'll have a way for anyone who can't make it to the in-person draft to keep tabs with it and make their selections.

Let me know which of those 3 days would work for you! Thanks!

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

18th or 25th work. If I said the 24th my wife my finish my fantasy football campaign early, or my life... lol

 

[RipCityWarrior]

Where would this draft take place? I am very busy with work this time of year and not sure if I could do a live draft. If it was close to Vancouver might be able to pop over for a few hours. I could do a online draft from my phone/ computer and day/ time.

We'll either post results in a thread or we might livestream it on YouTube. But itd be cool to have as many people as possible.

...if you live stream on a platform that also allows users to chat, then everyone could be "there"

Whats the point in an offline draft with no one there

I am unavailable on the latter 2 days. My birthday is on the 26th. I'll be out of town. The 10th is best for me.
