draft is too early, thanks any way.

saintswhodi · 06-04-2006, 08:55 PM

Why would anyone start a league and have a draft before mini-camps and pre-season?

smyce · 06-05-2006, 01:07 AM

June 19 draft?

No chance.

But is there going to be a B&G league?

Hmm, couple of thought:

Good job on changing the draft date. Much gooder.

I have always found 12 teams to be too many. 8 or 10 is much better as it leaves a couple of people in FA, and also allows for all teams to generally have a solid core of players to keep it competitive.

When I run a league, I get rid of that waiver business, or cut it down to one day. First come first serve is my motto. You see him first, you get him.

Also not a big fan of overdoing stats. Like the plus one for completions and the minus one for incompletes? That's about the only one i'd have different. Also the minus two for a sack. That hurts teams with immobile QBs who would otherwise have good #s. Like I said, there are just suggestions, and it's your league so run it however you like. I am just glad you changed that draft date. You never know who will get hurt in camp or in the pre-season.

Thanks for the input, whodi. I just changed the qb scoring, but it is staying at 12 teams. I want as many B&G users to join as I can get.

This is a new league, so I am the only team right now. Sign up guys!

saintswhodi · 06-05-2006, 12:10 PM

Good man. Is Monday Sept 4th Labor Day? I may be able to make the draft if it is, but a lot of people may be cooking out.

wheelman · 06-05-2006, 12:14 PM

It's at 4:00PM. Most people are already stuffed by then, but I can always change the date if enough people request it.

If you mention this to Chuck Norris, expect an explosive roundhouse kick to the face for spouting too much fancy-talk.
