    Some VERY Questionable Activity in SBR Fantasy Football League

    Men. I've played fantasy for 10-15 years now. Quick question please. Using THIS example is this allowed?

    Lets call player 1 player LT. Has GB packers on his bench when they played Thursday night. On Saturday DROPS the packers D to pick up another player. How are players from both GB and Detroit (Thurs night game) NOT locked until after the weeks games are done? Using this theory if I do not use a player at a 1pm game, can I drop him after the game and pick someone up from a 4:25 or 8pm Sunday game???

    TT maybe I'm wrong then. We always locked everyone who has already played until the weeks games are over.

    You're post went from using LT as the example then you make it seem as if its "you" making the switch.
    Are you asking as yourself or for the hypothetical LT?

    I thought the same when I read this but then I tried to drop James Jones and see if it let me pick someone up . It would so the answer is yes as long as player is on bench you can drop them after they play and pick up someone still to play.

    Jay it's not me doing it. I was shut out by another questionable LT move (picking up a D in waiver then dropping said D 1 hour later & picking up another hence putting original D back in Waiver pool). Then the schedule wasn't done correctly. I'll blame it on lack of sleep.

    Nothing wrong with the move. Only players in the starting lineup are locked once games begin.

    As for the defense thing, I already explained there was a flip-flop in the projections I use from one day (happened to be last day of free agent pickups) to next day (first day of free-for-all) and I acted on it. Since move was allowable by Yahoo, again nothing wrong with the move. If the flip-flip had occurred over last two days of free agency, would not even be an issue (would have just edited waiver claim). But regardless, there was nothing illegal about the move.

    LT it's "allowable" for me to fuk my gf sister, but I don't do it because it's morally wrong and not the right thing to do. I believe you knew what you were doing and just circumvented a rule.

    Here's my issue with you. You seem like a nice guy, do alot for SBR but why not do it right. Your answer for the schedule mishap made no sense. It's too much work. Blah blah blah. You're the freaking comm for gods sake. Own up to somethings. It's fantasy football so if you need to win that bad. Congrats.

    Finally Mr. Commish. Explain to me how greaser was ahead of me on today's waivers when my last waiver move was 2 days BEFORE him? (Mine 12/2. His 12/4 - two moves in fact). It's my understanding that when you make a waiver move or pickup, you then go to the back of the list.

    Phillyguy this should've been contained within our league thread.

    Phillyguy whether right or wrong no need to air our grievances to the public.

    Phillyguy this is a breach of fantasy ethics.

    Stealthy sorry. Had a rough night in AC last night. Suck out after suck out at the 1-2NL game. Now this.

    Stealthy went a supper club for dinner. Very interesting.

    Stealthy it's true that "once you go black you don't go back"

    Dude seriously, what is your issue.

    I explained my move, my only concern is to give myself the best lineup possible. I didn't circumvent anything, nor do I bother to look at anybody else's team except my own. There was no malicious intent here whatsoever.

    As for the schedule, as I said my understanding was that you play teams in your own division twice and three teams from the other division once and trusted Yahoo default schedule would reflect that. What was I supposed to do, go through everyone's schedule to make sure that was accurate? Just doesn't seem like big enough a deal for something so time consuming.

    And waiver order is based on reverse order of standings, I know nothing about being moved back after making a claim (not at Yahoo anyway).

    LT cheating on fantasy football. I thought I have seen it all. He is down 20 units on NCAAF, 30 units on NFL and now is cheating to win fantasy football. And this is the guy who gambles for a living.

    That's like saying jjgold is modeling for haircut magazines for a living.

    Your probably right,perhaps your allowed to customize on Yahoo as to whether or not players are locked after they play.

    Because you seem to be calling me out at every opportunity and I have done absolutely nothing wrong, nor have I ever cheated in fantasy football in my life. Now you have guys like Pavy believing the BS you are spewing.

    And yes, worst record has first call on all transactions.

    but i do agree with philly, your waiver position shouldn't change because of your record.

    lt get rid of divisions and change the waiver system to default. don't get cute pal.
