                There are guys who play seasons for 10k + buy in. Dont get me wrong there is some luck involved but let's not act like drafting a guy late who is an unknown to some isn't a skill

                  Busy week but glad to see members at least be open to change. I've always felt like the lowing hanging fruit should be cut (2 spots) and bring up 2 of the Top Quarter Pounders.

                  And I wasn't joking when I said Ex Champions should get a "Limited" free pass/exemption, say 3 years.

                  We should use the options Yahoo offers to stay current. I know, I heard we're moving to a rolling waiver wire next year, instead of a reverse standings order, which is progress. BUT, shouldn't 12 "Great Fantasy Owners be playing chess instead of checkers? Imagine how much more fun waiver wire would be every week, if we had a Free Agent Budget to use ($100/$200 per year). Every player would be available to every Owner. I'm just saying fellows, I'm getting older, time means more, let's think about this and do it right. No need to rush, just keep kicking ideas around, we got till next season to make changes.

                  As far as these 2019 Play Offs go, I've got 4 dogs in this fight, Anyone other than Jake & LT (Past Champions). I want to see "New Blood" win it, that would make a different winner all 5 years of this leagues existence.

                    I meant this is NOT happening when i said idea was scrapped, Too much resistance already, we will keep League I an "office type" league for alumni only. So the only change next year will be rolling waivers.

                      No, FAAB is not happening in SBR leagues, I have said several times I want norhing to do with anything that involves bidding.

                        I get it, change is hard for some, they usually just get left behind & fade away. I really don't care, as I've said before as long as we All playing by the same rules, Set Em' Up and We'll knock Em' Down. I guess I was wrong, I thought the league was called SBR Fantasy League not LT's Fantasy League ???

                          While I'm getting ideas turned down, how bout expand Pro League 1 to 14 teams, keep the minors at 12 ? Extra 6k in pay outs points would be nice for the Alpha's who cash.

                                As I said in second league thread, managing a budget is an extra skill set that IMO has nothing to do with fantasy football, so it has nothing to do with resisting change and everything to do with not wanting to add an extra variable that has nothing to do with the game.

                                    Why would anybody WANT 14 teams? It would create too much saturation and lead to scrubs at the end of the bench. I think 12 is perfect, guys are actually able to get starting tight ends in the 16 round,

                                      Part of the reason why I’m on the outside is because I spent a pretty high pick on Montgomery. When he was on my bench he’d score double digits....then I’d put him in and he would put up less than 5.

                                      Definitely staying away from him next year.

                                        I play in a few 14 team leagues and it’s not that bad.

                                        I also prefer FAAB, but if we are reluctant to do that, then we should at least do away with the weekly resetting of waivers. The bad teams shouldn’t be rewarded every week. The current way means that it’s better to be 6th than 3rd, 4th or 5th come playoff time.

                                          I already said we are doing rolling waivers starting next year. so no more resetting

                                            I just wanted to point out that we are smoking league 2 in this thread. 9 more pages than theirs.

                                              The majority in both leagues want FAAB and LT is afraid of change. How is this not comical?

                                                We would normally have 20+ more pages than theirs we were slacking this year

                                                    NOT afraid to change, just don't want to add something that requites a skill set outside the realm of fantasy. Not sure why you are having such a hard time comprehending that,

                                                      I'm happy with rolling waivers, it was something I suggested this past offseason, but didn't get any traction.

                                                        Yep, rolling waivers will be an upgrade for sure. You can wait for someone worth picking up.

                                                            it is because i wasn't commenting this season, it was hard enough dealing with funnyb draft let alone everytime i went into the thread someone was whining like a bitch about something. my god seriously if you don't like the rules then don't play, we don't need to hear the same sob story every week from some clown crying about he didn't get a waiver pick because of the way it is setup.
