Entry Fee: 1000 (12 Teams, 4 playoff teams)
Prize Breakdown:
1st - 5000
2nd - 2250
3rd - 1500
Weekly Payout - 250


That's a total prize pool of 12,250 so I'd be chipping in an extra 250 unless some others wanted to toss in an extra bit to help me out. I like the large weekly payout because it ensures that everyone is active all the way through

Roster Breakdown:
1 QB Starter
2 RB Starters
3 WR Starters
1 TE Starter
1 FLEX Starter
1 D/ST Starter
1 Kicker Starter
6 Bench Spots
1 IR (because why not)



Scoring is a little different to help try and even out positions. 100 yard receiving game equals out to 9 points, but a 100 yard rushing game equals out to 13. This helps negate WRs dominating because of the PPR format. Here is a breakdown to show how, relatively, even scoring is amongst positions. With QB's averaging the most, however since you only start one QB they don't extremely outscore the other positions:




Top 12 QB avg (1 starter per 12 teams): 372.98 (23.31 per game)
Top 24 RB avg (2 starters per 12 teams): 225.91 (14.12 per game)
Top 36 WR avg (3 starters per 12 teams): 231.32 (14.46 per game)
Top 12 TE (1 starter per 12 teams): 193.49 (12.09 per game)
Top 12 D/ST (1 starter per 12 teams): 175.58 (10.97 per game)
Top 12 K (1 per team): 147.18 (9.20 per game)


Here are the top 150 flex positions (based on last year's totals):


Flex 1-50: 27 WR, 18 RB, 5 TE
51-100: 21 WR, 22 RB, 7 TE
101-150: 22 WR, 17 RB, 11 TE


Top 150 Flex Breakdown: 70 WR, 57 RB, 23 TE




Again, entry fee is 1000 with 250 to weekly high scorer (in the event of a tie, 250 is split). 12 team league, top 4 go to playoffs (top scorers for playoff weeks are not awarded 250).




It's on ESPN so if you want to join I will need to send you an email invite. Once entry fee is received will send it if you PM me your email, or post in thread. First open to the other 11 people in our baseball league, then to packerd, then, if still spots remaining, to anyone else interested.

Draft is still TBD but thinking September 3rd or 4th (last weekend before season starts so no BS injuries after you draft). Time would be around 3-5pm EST.

If we get 12 teams quickly can set the draft order and allow pre-draft trading of picks.

[Marigold HD]

I think I'm in again Astro

[Dan Kelly]

Thanks for the invite, but I have to decline because of a lack of time.

[mpaschal34]

astro....i'm definitely in. i'll try and work with the rules as we go.

if we need some dead money in the league. send an invite to USCphilly

[sharkbite8]

I'm interested, but drafting Labor Day Weekend is tough.

[astro61200]

I'm interested, but drafting Labor Day Weekend is tough.

Didn't realize it was Labor Day weekend, that's very true. How about the draft being on August 27th (3 weeks from today) at 6pm EST? I figure that time works best for those wanting to go out on the east coast, should be over in time to still have plans, and anyone on the west coast doesn't have to get up early to participate.

So far we have me, mpas, sharkbite (assuming the draft date works), and Marigold (taking Dan's spot, and won last year's)

[sharkbite8]

Probably can't that Saturday. Any other dates, or how about a slow draft?

[astro61200]

Only other option is really Sunday the 28th. Anything sooner and risk not being able to fill it up in time. I can do a draft during the week as well, but not sure if others would be able to

[oChRoNiCo]

I'm in points sent in the first thread.

[BIGDAY]

Will keep tabs. Counting up all the leagues I'm in. Had a lot last year.

[USCPHILLYGUY]

Pass............best of luck though

funny comment Matty especially since you were an outsider looking in come playoff time

I have a spot open in my cash league Ive ran for 9 years..........all payments made through P A Y P A L.....PM me if anyones interested

Ouch....league running up against SBR league

[astro61200]

Invite sent to chronic, awaiting payment from Marigold and mpas. Will message packerd in a bit to see if he still is interested

[astro61200]

Alright, setting draft for Sunday, August 28th at 8pm EST

Open to whomever sends points now, I'll hold a spot for Marigold, mpas, and chico until told otherwise (or if no response by the 15th)

Also going to add a $25 Red Robin gift card for winner.. Hamburgers!

[chico2663]

i want in . i am still waiting 50 points from baseball league and i will send you what i have. Will get a loan for rest

[mpaschal34]

Sent first 800...will send last 200 once I get them.

Figured I'd send points before I waste them in the casino.

Got it, invite sent.

7 spots remaining, waiting for payment from Marigold and chico

[Bcatswin]

I'd like to get in but currently do not have enough points floating around 1k

[astro61200]

For those who want to play, but are short, I'll reuse the same payment plan option I offered last year:

Two ways to pay:

1000 upfront
or
200 upfront, 180 week 1, 180 week 2, 180 week 3, 180 week 4, 180 week 5 (1100 total) - If you pay 200 upfront but want to pay off the rest early then the breakdown goes:
Paying off before week 1, pay 800
Paying off during week 1 (each week will start at the Thursday night kickoff, payment due by Wednesday of the following week), pay 820 (1020 total paid)
Paying off during week 2, pay 660 (1040 total)
Paying off during week 3, pay 500 (1060 total)
Paying off during week 4, pay 340 (1080 total)

The extra will go into the pot and help me cover the extra I was chipping in.

If a payment is missed, and we haven't agreed on something, then the team will be locked until it's made. In the event that someone is the high scorer for the week, but still owes a balance, those points won will be added to the paid balance. The difference will be paid out if there is anything remaining.

Slight change: the draft will be on the 28th at 7:45 EST (not 8). 8 was full, so scheduled it 15 minutes earlier than originally listed.

Also switching to 6 playoff teams, the two best records receiving byes. Tie breakers are head to head, if tied then total points scored

Here's the new breakdown:

Entry Fee: 1000 (12 Teams, 6 playoff teams)
Prize Breakdown:
1st - 5000 + $25 Red Robin Gift Card
2nd - 2250
3rd - 1250
4th - 250 (plus any interest from payment plans)
Weekly Payout - 250

[mpaschal34]
