    2015 SBR Fantasy Football League II
    This league is already full so send no points in this thread. Do not fret though if you missed out on both leagues, as there will be an SBR Fantasy Football League III with the exact same rules and also with 3000 points added by SBR! Look out for that announcement next week.


    SBR Fantasy Football League II for 2015 will be hosted by Yahoo with the live draft being held Wednesday night, September 2nd at 8:00 ET and will last 16 rounds. This will be a 12-team league with a buy-in of 1000 Betpoints (Already Filled!), and SBR is adding 3000 points to this pot also, bringing the total pool to 15,000 Betpoints! I will be sending the Yahoo Invite link for League II via PM shortly. Please remember to make your SBR handle obvious when you name your team at Yahoo so that we know who everybody is. The drafting order will randomized as soon as the team list is finalized and the draft will be the standard snake format. You will have 90 seconds for each draft pick. Also note that this league has unlimited transactions, but the trading deadline is November 13th, 2015.

    There will be two six-team divisions and the regular season will last 13 weeks. There will be six playoff teams, but only the Final 4 will get season points. The top two seeds will get first round byes and thus be assured of being in the Final 4. The other four playoff teams will be seeded 3 through 6, and while division winners are assured of making the playoffs, all seeding will be based on overall records regardless of division. In Week 14, the 3-seed will face the 6-seed and the 4-seed will face the 5-seed. In Week 15, the 1-seed will face the lowest remaining seed and the 2-seed will face the other Week 14 winner. The SBR Super Bowl will be in Week 16 and NFL Week 17 will be ignored.

    The Champion gets 7500 Betpoints, the Championship loser gets 2500 Betpoints and the two semifinal losers each get 1250 Betpoints. Additionally, beginning with Week 9 and ending with the final week of the regular season in Week 13, the high scorers for each week will get 500 points (with ties split evenly).

    Here are all the rules, with some highlights being that only 4 points are awarded for touchdown passes, this is a PPR league that gives 1 point per reception and kick return touchdown points are awarded to BOTH the defense/special team and the player: Also we have added fractional scoring this year and have expanded the roster size from 15 to 16.

    Roster:
    Current Roster Size: 16
    Total Starters: 9
    Total On Bench: 7

    Starting Positions
    Quarterback (QB) 1
    Running Back (RB) 2

    Tight End (TE) 1
    Flex (RB/WR/TE) 1
    Defense/ST (D/ST) 1
    Place Kicker (K) 1

    There are no limitations on what positions you draft, just make sure that you make the appropriate moves each week to field a valid starting lineup.

    Scoring:
    Offense
    Passing Yards 1 point per 20 yards
    Passing Touchdowns 4

    Fumbles Lost -1

    Kick Return TD 6

    Kickers
    Field Goals 0-39 Yards 3

    Points Allowed 0 points 10
    Points Allowed 1-6 points 6
    Points Allowed 7-13 points 3
    Points Allowed 35+ points -5

    Playoff Tiebreakers:

    Division Leader
    If two or more teams tie for the lead in a division, the following tiebreakers will be used to determine the division winner.

    1. Division winning percentage.
    2. Total fantasy points (season total).
    3. Fantasy points scored in last week's matchup.
    4. Fantasy points scored in the matchup two weeks prior.
    5. The comparison continues until the tie is broken or no more weeks remain to compare. At that time, a coin flip will settle the tie.

    Please note:
    Teams must have identical winning percentages to be considered tied in the standings.
    A team with an 8-4-1 (.654) record will be seeded ahead of a team with an 8-5 (.615) record. A team with an 8-6 (.571) record WILL be tied with a team with a 6-4-4 (.571) record.

    If three or more teams tie for a division lead, once the division winner is determined, all other teams involved in the tie are then seeded using the wild-card tiebreaking criteria.

    Division winning percentage is determined in the same way as overall winning percentage, except it only includes games against division opponents.

    Wild Card
    If two or more teams tie for a wild-card position, the following tiebreakers will be used to determine the standings

    1. Total fantasy points (season total).
    2. Fantasy points scored in last week's matchup.
    3 Fantasy points scored in the matchup two weeks prior.
    4. The comparison continues until the tie is broken or no more weeks remain to compare. At that time, a coin flip will settle the tie.

                No losing pts for missed FG's or missed XP? Could be interesting with the new rule.

                  Any interest in doing a side pool for highest weekly score? Maybe something like 100pts each to pay out 100pts to weekly high score for 12 weeks, or something similar.

                    Actually in the rules for weeks 9 to 13, 500 points for high score. But if you want to do something separate for first eight weeks, knock yourself out.

                      As the future winner of the league, I'm fine with taking 800 out of the added 3000 and using it for the week 1-8 highest scorer

                        No, price structure won't change. Anything for first 8 weeks would be a side pool with guys putting up points competing against each other.

                                      Perfect spot in the draft. I hope your #1 pick blows his ACL out.

                                              I never got the point of "Fantasy Leagues".... never took part in it because from my understanding it's just for fun and never any REAL prizes... like the Pick'em contests that pay cash.... am I right? For example I see this one is just giving points for the top people..... but is there ever any real CASH paid out in any of these "fantasy" leagues that almost every site and their mama have?

For example I see this one is just giving points for the top people..... but is there ever any real CASH paid out in any of these "fantasy" leagues that almost every site and their mama have?
                                                  There are many fantasy sites that pay cash. For daily leagues, the big hitters are Fan Duel and Draft Kings. For season long leagues, I like rtsports. I am in a $250 league at RT where first place gets $1500 in 12-team league. There are smaller payouts for second and third.

                                                      thanks, but how do fantasy leagues work, we have to pick which person will do better than others etc? i am strictly interested in picking the game or SPREAD contests like the BTP contest this site offers, and others......... Yes I am cheap thank-you-very-much.

                                                        I find it hard to believe that someone in 2015 doesn't know how a fantasy league works..
