Welcome to Season 12 of the 20 team fantasy league! This is your deputy commissioner Silly Burrito starting this year's thread for darkwolf220, who is the actual commissioner of this fine league. Our current draft is tentatively scheduled for Sun, Aug 30, 2020, 8PM EASTERN TIME. This is subject to change, but for now, just go with it. MEMBERS: Priority goes to the players who got into the league last year. If you want in for 2020, post in THIS THREAD AND THE LEAGUE PAGE ON ESPN by Aug. 15th or your spot will be given up. If you changed your username or team name, let us know. Second priority goes to wait list people. If you want to be added to the wait list, post and we will add you first come first serve. ROSTER BREAKDOWN: Here are the current roster requirements. We have no plan changes for this year, but if you have a suggestion, feel free to suggest it. 1 QB 1 RB 1 WR 2 Flex (RB/WR/TE) 1 TE 1 D/ST 1 K 5 Bench spots 2 IR DRAFT: We will be doing a live online draft. Please plan your schedules accordingly. Set your rankings or get a friend to draft for you if need be. Draft order will be randomized after the league is officially filled but the commissioners can be bribed. LEAGUE SCHEDULING: The schedules will be similar to last year, we will just shift the games using the same tool so that you should play a couple of different conference games and out of conference games. -8 division games -3 conference games -2 out of conference games We keep the same divisions. The AFC (Marino, Namath) and NFC (Montana, Romo) conferences will be placed on other ends of the real playoffs when the time comes. SCORING:   PLAYOFF BERTHS: The playoff berths are calculated based on the actual rules that the NFL has. Yes, this is a pain in the rear end, but it's a pain in the rear end of a labor of love, or something like that. Eight out of twenty of you happy assholes get in. Four division champions, two wild card berths in each conference. IGNORE ANY ESPN PLAYOFF SEEDINGS AS THE CALCULATIONS WILL BE POSTED IN THE THREAD.

I was bored and felt like ignoring my family, so enjoy some stats: Only 6 teams have been in the league every year (don't know SA names from the league): Myself (SF PoM) Spinning Freeneys Beantown Beans Akron Peppercorns Jameis Crab Leg Emporium Rated R Super Stars Last year had the highest turnover with 8 teams leaving, including 6 that had been in for at least 5 years. The first year had the second highest turnover with 6 teams leaving, with all 6 being at the bottom of the standings (cowards). Most other years had 1 or 2 people leave. 27 people have left the league, 11 after only 1 year (5 after only 1 year not counting 2009). Also, I plotted regular season points as a ranking (20 = most points, 1 = the least points) for every team that has been in the league for at least 4 years and was in the league last year or the year before (red = left after 2018). Each point is a year. I did not realize I would be first when I compiled the data, I thought I would be somewhere around third behind Boudin Ballers and Jameis Crab Leg Emporium, so I am a jerk for cherry picking a stat in a way that benefits me, but the work was already done by the time I knew  .

Cool, already 12 teams out of 20 back already!  One quick request. Can you either make a new post or just edit your "I'm back" post with your team name if it's not already there? If we have any new players, it'll be easier and I'll just collect them all and put them in the OP later to match SA usernames with teams. Just something simple like: Boudin Ballers (Silly Burrito) Thanks! Silly Burrito fucked around with this message at 16:38 on Jul 23, 2020 |

Last year was a big turnover year, but normally it's like 1-2 a year (Pain of Mind said it much better up above). I'll get you all set up, and then just tell me what your name will be (which can change, obviously). Silly Burrito fucked around with this message at 21:14 on Jul 25, 2020 |

Not so active on SA anymore so if someone really wants the spot let em have it! Otherwise I'll be back. Epstein's Tight End Memorial was the old name, will possibly change.

Ok, I have moved, I have set up all my poo poo, I think I am back now. If it pleases the court, I am going to take a bit of a back seat as this season starts up (or doesn't!). SB is doing a fantastic job and I am very grateful. Things are still a bit weird right now, even outside of the added drama of living in Seattle these days. I will do my level best to be more active and reply to any and all inquiries from anyone, just PM me or post here if you don't mind up to a few days delay.

More advanced stats: Quoting myself from the 2016 thread (referring to the draft day): quote:Returning, hopefully I don't have a baby on that day. Red = pre kids, Blue = post kids Also a secondary stat I just noticed, both 5 dots were kid years! No wonder Rivers could never get a ring.

Before we had our daughter I would watch and rewatch preseason games. I'd check out replays of games I'd missed if there was a particular player I thought was entertaining. These were usually condensed games on Gamepass but still. Not that it made me any better at fantasy football. My record across multiple leagues over the years is very Jeff Fisher-esque.
