August 23, 201114 yr Yeah, 9 is not available on the 29th and 30th so I had it a week early just in case I could not get anything on the schedule for those days. It looks like we can get 9:15 on the 29th and 30th.
August 28, 201114 yr Assuming Maclin gets up to speed by the opener, that's a pretty good starting lineup you got there, Deepak.
August 28, 201114 yr Assuming Maclin gets up to speed by the opener, that's a pretty good starting lineup you got there, Deepak. Yeah I saw him talk on NFL network a few days ago and from my professional visual assessment he seemed ok
August 29, 201114 yr So I did a 16-team draft last Sunday, had 11th pick and wound up with this roster: Overall, I'm pleased with my squad. It helped that some people did some really stupid moves like drafting Braylon Edwards in the 2nd round and even worse, someone drafted Christian Ponder and Colin Kaepernick Edited August 29, 201114 yr by raffy
August 29, 201114 yr Jeff, one more suggestion: can we put in decimal/partial point scoring? That way we get .2 points per reception vs. 1 per 5 reception. This will also virtually guarantee no draws which are always a pain in the ass when trying to figure out standings.
August 29, 201114 yr I'm glad we're back in with 10 teams again this year - last year's HC league was the first time I had done 12 teams and it was painful. Oh, and why would anyone be drafting Braylon Edwards in the 2nd round? That's far worse than drafting Ponder or Kaspernick (assuming they were drafted in late rounds), IMO.

August 29, 201114 yr The San Fran homer who drafted like 4 49er players Ponder and Kaepernick are pretty bad too considering Dalton was undrafted. And this guy drops Kaepernick for Tebow
August 29, 201114 yr Oops, sorry, for some reason, I keep getting Dalton and Ponder mixed up in my head. In either case, still bad choices all around (not that I make good draft choices myself, but still hope better than drafting Ponder/Kaspernick ahead of Dalton). Edited August 29, 201114 yr by Salt Peanuts
August 29, 201114 yr I don't think you'll make picks even close to that bad....I think those picks are the worse I've seen in years. And this guy is a veteran fantasy player! Don't get me wrong, I'm not bothered at all by his bad picks but I was shocked....now that I think about it, Braylon in the 2nd is much worse that the 2 rookie picks as there were still sooooo many good players at his spot like Roddy White, Vincent Jackson, etc.
August 29, 201114 yr I really hope this league is free to play. Watch Edwards have a career year now that we bashed him.
August 29, 201114 yr Yes, it's a paid league but no transaction/trade fees. I hope we haven't motivated the football gods to give Braylon a monster year!
August 29, 201114 yr The San Fran homer who drafted like 4 49er players Hmmm, so this is what people are going to think of me if I pick a certain Houston RB as my first pick.
August 29, 201114 yr So, I'm in the League 2 that makes the draft tomorrow at 9:15 pm, right? Is there a way to monitor League 1's draft tonight? Since I've never taken part it might be informative.
August 29, 201114 yr Okay how about this for draft schedule: League One - Tuesday August 30th 9:15 EST League Two - Wednesday August 31st 9:15 EST Previously and updated time Edited August 29, 201114 yr by morphsci
August 29, 201114 yr Ok, can someone give me a head's up? I haven't worked in over two weeks, I didn't even know we were in the August 2xs yet. Stupid morphine. **BRENT**
August 29, 201114 yr You'll be fine Brent. Just set up autodraft to pick 10 kickers and 5 D/ST, take some drugs, and wait to win the league.
August 30, 201114 yr So, I'm in the League 2 that makes the draft tomorrow at 9:15 pm, right? Is there a way to monitor League 1's draft tonight? Since I've never taken part it might be informative. League 1 is tomorrow night. Ethan, I do not believe you will be able to watch the draft. I have never tried but I am pretty sure that part of the publicly viewable league is still private.
