    Draft Time: Thu Aug 24 9:00pm CDT it is. Draft is in less than a month.

    If you are not going to be there, pre-rank your players or you're going to get screwed.

    Sorry, DeAleck, this league is full.

    But I have the 2nd ClutchFans League started up and there are openings. E-mail me and I will give you the site and password.

    Just for any late stragglers, I put the time down for 9:15pm instead of 9:00pm.

    REMEMBER to pre-rank your players or you're going to get screwed.

    Can somebody tell me what my login user id is? I suddenly forgot. The team name is Brightside's Bandits.

    Mr. Brightside, the Yahoo ID I got from the managers' list is fogofinvictus. Hopefully that helps.

    Guys, is there a lottery generator of some sort that I can find so we can set a draft order?

    Or should I let Yahoo generate it? Yahoo says the draft order will be randomly determined approximately 30 minutes before the draft begins.

    Was just looking at settings. It says that 8 (out of 12) teams make the playoffs. Is this correct? Seems like a large number.

    Also noticed that week 17 is the championship game. That might not be such a good idea since a lot of teams rest their starters during that week. Most leagues have their superbowl in week 16.

    I believe he did that, so at least it's a greater chance you can tell all your friends during recess, you made the playoffs in your fantasy football league... :p

    If you are reading this and you are in the league, you only have 5 minutes to get to the draft.

    4 things:

    1) Should I add 1, 2, or no extra bench spots?

    2) Currently, for kick and punt returning, the points look like this:

    20 yards - 1 point
    TD - 6 points


    Is that cool or reduce it to 10?

    3) 50 passing yards - 1 point

    Should that be dropped to 40 or 30?

    4) Rushing and Receiving - 20 yards = 1 point

    Should this drop to 10?

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Please let me know before the season starts or everything stays the same.

    I definitely don't think you should be messing with the scoring system after the draft.

    Agreed, but PLEASE change the playoff dates. Week 17 is a horrible week for a Super Bowl as most teams in the playoffs rest their players. Weeks 14, 15 and 16 should be fine playoff weeks.

    I kind of like the scoring changes and it is not like they really would have effected the draft outcome anything that increases scoring is good.

    But more importantly, we may have to redraft anyways, after reviewing my team it seems a little unfair to be that loaded, making everyone else play for second place before the season even starts..... especially, when you start to look at teams like Fade's precious little kitties.

    We may all have to donate one good player to Fade, so that he has a chance to get one "W" this year.... :D
