Anyways this post is mainly for those of you that had better things to do then to show up for our meeting, and to ensure that everyone is on the same page to keep the Bitching to a minimum this year. Yes I'm looking at you Fetter. Overall our rules stayed the same but there were a few changes. So lets start with the biggest change...
Rule #1
We are now a .50 PPR League (1/2 Point Per Reception) For those that are legally retarded. That means every time a player (ex. Running back, Wide receiver, Tight End) catches the football they receive half of a point towards their overall score for the day.
Rule #2
New IR System (Injured Reserve) You might have noticed this year that there are 21 slots for your teams roster. ( Corey raises hand, and asks "but we only draft 20 players?!?") Shut the fuck up, I was getting there. After all of the joy that I had last year as your commissioner,of having to undo all the fuck ups that some of you all made. Because you are too fucking lazy to take the time and read a simple list. "Oh look Maurice Jones Drew is on the waiver wire, Ill bid $30 and pick him up even though he's out for the next 3 weeks", Really... For Fuck's sake! Really! Anyways back on topic this is where the extra slot comes in. Even though it is labeled as a bench slot, this is your new IR slot. So hopefully we can avoid all of this confusion in the future.
How it works:
When you have an injured player that is going to miss an entire game you can place him in this extra slot. Once the player has been placed in your IR slot he must remain there for at least 2 entire games. After the 2 games if the player is on the NFL active roster then that player must be removed from the extra IR slot and placed on your normal roster or you will be punished.
The Punishment:
This is where it gets good. If you are caught abusing the IR spot, the player in your IR spot will be placed on waivers and be sold to the highest bidder. Including yourself, if you choose to spend the Dough, Ray, Me.
Rule #3
Waiver Wire Money Rollover
Pretty simple rule. We all start this year with $100 to bid with throughout the year on the waiver wire. If you don't spend all of your money by the end of the season then that money rolls over to the next year. So if you had $27 leftover this year, you would start next year with $127. And this would continue until you met your cap of $250. So spend that Waiver Wire money wisely!
Keepers
Keepers are Due by Midnight, Friday, Aug. 30th. You must either submit them to the yahoo site or get written conformation from the Commissioner Via Text, Email, or Handwritten Post-It note to ensure that you have locked in your keeper. The keeper list will then be issued out the next day or that night depending on B.A.L. at the time. If you are choosing not to keep anyone please just send me a text confirming that your team sucks and you are horrible at fantasy football.
The Draft
The draft will be this Sunday, Sept. 1st at 5:00 P.M. As always you will need to bring your own draft materials, because my printer will be miraculously broken and you will not be to print anything off at my house. As always we will take breaks every 5-10 rounds, depending on how quickly we are moving and alcohol is not only suggested, but strongly recommended. Cut to Johnathan slurring out "Give me Brett Favre in the 3rd! He's due a big year!"
The Draft Order
The Draft order is as follows:
Sawyer Shinobi's: 1st pick
Injury Report: 2nd pick
Boondock Saints: 3rd pick
Chiefs: 4th pick
Dabears: 5th pick
Decatur Staleys: 6th pick
Bear Down Brawlers: 7th pick
Stairway to 7: 8th pick
49ers: 9th pick
Ben There Raped That: 10th pick
Packers: 11th pick
Patriots: 12th pick
Money
Scott has been designated the treasurer of our league and will be collecting all of our league dues. I mean really who else is better for the job (Insert Stereotype Here) So get your money to him by draft day!
Don't be a Douche Bag!
Good Luck to Everyone, because you all need it!
The Commissioner
Oh yeah someone tell Hull to quit sucking face long enough to sign up for his fantasy team!
Just some awesome randomness!
