Asiata would be your 2nd best RB according to the numbers

My team has no chance in this league, as the waivers were "randomly" selected with me at the bottom. So, everyone I try to pick up in blind waivers, goes to someone else because they're ranked higher. Even losing every week does nothing to climb me up the waiver rankings. I'm left with only the scraps no one else wanted. Meanwhile, the bench setting is too large, so no one needs to make any difficult drops.


First of all, they were random, and you got the fifth or six position -- I don't know which AtlantaLSU Fan you are as there are two in this league. Page 5 of this thread has the results of the random draw.

Second, bench is standard, as is everything in this league with the exception of PPR and decimal scoring. This was stated in the OP of the original organization of the league.

quote:

I spent 8mill in the draft on Josh Gordon, the league announced that his season long suspension was upheld and official. He miraculously comes back for week 12, but this crap league does nothing to protect, whoever was closest to a computer when it was announced the suspension may not get upheld, gets the player for free. In my real league, it was open to a blind bidding session the next week.


It's my fault for you dropping a player. Gotcha.

quote:

I finally got a trade approved, where I sent two active players for Josh Gordon and AP (who may never play this season) in a desperate attempt to improve the team. The league veto'd the trade within an hour! In my 15 years of playing fantasy football I've seen maybe two trades veto'd and have never voted to veto one unless there was obvious collusion. Nothing in the rules say you can't make a bad trade. To this day, I still have no idea if you veto'd because I was getting too much or too little.


Pretty sure that trade was vetoed because your team had been struggling, hadn't won a game, and you were trying to TRADE FOR Adrian Peterson and Josh Gordon. The rest of the league saved you. Even your trade partner, BilJ, admitted that trade should be vetoed.

quote:

This whole league is just crap. By far the worst I've played in, there is no fun just unfairness and anger. But I signed up, so even though I have no chance, I'll keep playing.


All anyone can ask for. If you have a problem with something, please bring it up. Don't wait awhile.

his points on vetoing in this league are pretty accurate. I get why that one was veto'd, but he's correct....

sounds like these dudes have been playing in fantasy leagues with no rules or owners who just dont seem to give a shite


Waivers is a rolling order, btw... Probably should read up on how that works before you go bashing the commish. Youre at the end of the order every week because you use a claim on "scraps"

In one paragraph he bitches about having to drop Josh Gordon, only to later complain about how the benches are too large for anyone to have to chose to make tough drops

'twas a league's decision at the beginning of the year to have vetoes, whether some members disagree or not.

yes but with the understanding only obvious collusion would be veto'd, it was not used that way and thus has been a total failure. I'm just saying that's what happens when you leave it to votes, people vote with their butts of hurt.

Just realized I'm #1 on the waiver. Shame there's such slim pickings this week.

just don't yell at me for the lack of talented players available. I have no control over that.
