that imo would take away a lot of the fun. you need your matchups to have rivalries and smack talk. I wouldn't like that format

lol at y'all whining about points. why even have matchups then let's just have 12 teams and just add up all their scores and the top 4 make it? I mean that is basically what y'all are clamoring for
 Not whining, just stating a fact.
BTW, I am all for leagues that do weekly points winners. Meaning, in a given week, the top 6 points scorers get a W, bottom 6 get a L. It evens the playing field out tremendously. Poor Drake in the FFL had top 3 in points and was bottom 4 team. THat shite shouldn't happen
ETA: Plenty of fantasy football leagues do this. I participated in 1 and it was awesome. There was no sick feeling after your team scores the 2nd to most points in the league, only to be playing the highest scorer that week. Traditional leagues are awesome, I just like the idea of the points W/L league too

This is true. I would never want to do a points W/L league if I was in a league where there were rivalries. I did it in a league where I didn't know many people and it was great

Then you truly have the top 4 or 6 teams making the playoffs with no 'what ifs' or non even playing field.

I get where yall are coming from and I swear i'm not just saying this because it's working in my favor but I love the matchups. I like playing a specific person and going head to head every week. just my preference

I agree with you in regards to our league. Too many rivalries and shite talking to do the points w/L

This is ridiculous, I have 3 days where I have no players playing and he has a full line up each of those days; add to that espn not warning me about players not playing.

Stop relying on ESPN for anything. Check rotoworld or set up a twitter account and follow nothing but sports/fantasy writers. If you have an android, use the Plume Twitter widget and it'll update live on one of your pages, it's awesome. I'll give you a list if interested.
BTW, I just switched from an iPhone to Android and these phones are bad arse

eta: jefferson should play tonight
