14 teams, 7 bench spots. We might discuss going to 6 spots with an IR spot at our end of the season party.

As the new champ / commish I am going to push hard for 6 bench + IR spot.

My 14 team is 7+IR, 12 team is 7+2IR. They both have some IDP, so they're fairly bare but perhaps not as bare as they could be.

What’s everyone’s bench size? My work league has been in talks since the playoffs started about reducing bench size. I’m all for it since forcing people to play waivers / FA and reduce hoarding is my jam. Which made me wonder if there’s such a thing as people playing with little no bench space.

My work League did 3 man bench, down from 4 last year. Nobody is ever out of the league if you play the wavier game right. It was a lot of fun I thought. Tho trades will be non existent.

We've been running 5 bench and one IR slot. I feel it got more competitive when we lowered it.

He went off last year in the playoffs too which is why I rostered him this entire miserable year only to cut him before he went off.

He's on my gently caress this guy list next to Amari Cooper. Ain't ever touching either one of them again.

Definitely my first and last year with Cooper as well. I'm happy and lucky to have gotten his best game though

lol, Yahoo gave me a B+ overall for the year on one of my teams because I didn't make enough transactions to improve my team.

Well I'm sorry Yahoo, I was busy shattering league scoring records because my team was loaded.

I got a B+ on my 'ship winning team because it really didn't like my draft, because I didn't spend enough draft capital on WRs. (Freeman->Murray->Kelce->Fitz->Hunt->Diggs), then all WRs + 1 QB/kick/def

I think the Rams are locked in their position. I doubt he plays much, maybe a half.

Not entirely locked in but they can only finish as the third or fourth seed so basically locked in.

Am I going to run Josh Gordon and Antonio Gates in this stupid 2nd week for the championship on week 17 just because I can? Hell yea I am.

In other news, I have a time machine for sale that only goes back to 2013 which I'll be done using soon.

You're finished, pork-o-nazi!
The disturbing part is that the default on every website is for leagues to end on Week 16. So you have to have a commissioner who thinks: "I am going to go in and manually change this to have a Week 17 championship. This is a good idea."

Did ESPN change it so the finals weren't 16-17?
Because that would be only 10 years behind common sense, as opposed to their usual ~12

If you’re using week 17 you might as well make it a 20 week season and count the preseason games too.

Asking for a friend but is there any site that tracks penalties and can implement them into fantasy?

Like 'your guy got a 50yd pass interference penalty, you get 5pts. Also you have the cb who caused it so here is another 5pts"

Looks like MFL can do penalties taken, penalties taken resulting in a first, and penalty yards taken. But not the drawn side.

So Brady hasn’t played well in recent weeks and I have Jimmy G’s sexy face staring at me on my bench. I’m currently 43 points behind the guy I’m playing thanks to Gurley going hog wild and Crabtree/Jeffery not recording a catch last week.

Do I just say gently caress it and play Jimmy and see what happens?

Doesnt Belichick usually bench Brady at the half of week 17?

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it

Speaking of, I'm stuck playing for the championship in a 17 week league. I'm up 24 points after week 16 and here's my lineup. Thinking of dropping Kelce for Gates or Ebron.
