OK, so it sounds like in your other league, the cap and the FAAB budget are identical, which definitely simplifies things. They also have a much larger FAAB budget, which may be throwing off your gut-feel sense of how much players should cost. And, they process waivers daily, instead of twice a week as we do.

I don't really understand what that github link is (I mean, I know it's a repository of code for some application, but I don't see how a news scraper app is relevant, so I'm probably misunderstanding).

Just saw the error and read back on the discussion, so this is resolved fully now? Considering circumstances I see it as no harm no foul for the most part as we are just starting this league, and even with the ruleset being fairly comprehensive there are bound to be additions/adjustments/interpretations throughout this year and maybe even going forward a year or two that will need ironing out.

We are still discussing whether there needs to be a rules change, or a change in how we manage the FAAB budgets, but the actual issue (a team busted its cap) has been resolved, yeah.

I do hope there aren't any hard feelings. Gyshall I know you got put on the spot big-time, but I think most or all of us can see it was an honest mistake, and I think we managed to resolve it without anyone being an rear end in a top hat about things.

Which is actually pretty unusual for Fantasy Football, heh.

We are supposed to be trash talking here too so:

Percy Riots face looks like a butt and his parents dont love him.


I am pretty bad with trash talk. And I am too nervous that Forsett will continue his trend of 'suck dick for 4 quarters and run like a quadrapalegic' that he has been doing.

Picking a dude who explicitly stated he was retiring at year end was pretty risky for a dynasty.

Of course with the poo poo I drafted I shouldnt talk.

I mean, I have Larry Fitzgerald and until today I had Andre Johnson. There is some value for skilled old players in dynasty. I'm not exactly fluent in the math of how their value degrades relative to redraft though.

In preparation for the draft I actually looked up and recorded the ages of every player on a beersheet, plus the ages of the top ~40 IDP guys in each of the three major categories.

I mostly favored younger guys, and whenever it was a choice between two or three guys that were about on the same tier, I picked the younger one. Then I proceeded to massively overpay for Lamar Miller and gently caress my entire draft up really badly, so... yeah, that only goes as far as it goes.

But I do have a generally pretty young team.

A stopgap until one or more of my young WRs got their legs under them, and I get his cap space for next year when I do not renew him.

This is smart. Me being drunk and thinking Mike Wallace is 24 is not.

Good on you.

And Leperfishy: Lamar Miller has more points than Keuchly if that makes you feel better. Granted, Keuchly has been concussed for 3 weeks...

You have 2 defenders with 20 each. 17 tackles and 11tackles plus an int.

I have a guy with .5 of a tackle on my defense for 1.5 points.

I think you will survive...

Josh Norman has definitely been my best waiver pickup...another 33 points today to retake his spot as the top scoring DB.

This IR is killing me.

My dudes are Questionable all week. Then game day about 30 minutes before kickoff ESPN finally updates them to Out. Then the next day they will be Q again so I can't put them on my IR.

That happened to me with ASJ. I couldn't make a roster move with him as 'doubtful' on IR, so I had to temporarily roster him. As soon as I did that, he was listed as 'out' and I put him back on IR.

Anyway, here's hoping for less than 30 points from Stafford + Megatron.
