If you guys could please go to the website and look over the rules for me and give me a thumbs up/thumbs down I would appreciate it.
http://fbc.fanball.com/commissioner.fbc?prg=lselect&lid=23904&page=lhome&73190 Lineups Everyone will start 2QB 2RB 2WR TE K D and 1 Flex (RB or WR). This is to compensate for only having 8 teams. Being forced to start more players means that teams will have to think harder in the draft. There are 8 bench slots meaning we will be drafting 18 rounds. There are ZERO IR slots, mainly because I really hate the idea of IR slots. If your player is hurt you either bench him or cut him. There is plenty of room on the bench for a stud or two to wait out injury. I have always played this way and really don't see any need for IR slots except as a way to get around roster limits. Scoring All TDs are 6 pts each. Rushing + Receiving is 1pt/10 yards. All positions get 1 pt/catch. There is still a 5 pt bonus for each 300yds passing, 100yds rushing, and 100yds receiving. So a player that has 145 rushing and 35 receiving with 5 catches would have 18 + 5 + 5 = 28 pts. Schedule I have all teams in one division since there are only 8. Everyone will play each other twice (I think) from Week 1 through Week 14. They will be ranked according to overall win percentage, head-to-head, then total points for the season. Playoffs Since we aren't really playing for money, I think we are just going to have one playoff bracket. The top 4 teams will play for the Championship in Weeks 15 and 16 of the season. Transactions The free agents/waivers will be locked from kickoff through Wednesday at 8pm EST. During this time, any team may submit a waiver request for one or more players. At 8pm EST on Wed, the site will automatically process waiver requests from worst to first. If your team picks up a player you will go to the bottom of the list. Once each team has had a chance to pick up a player, the waiver wire will open at 8:30 pm EST. From that point until kickoff the following Sunday, teams may add/drop players freely. Any player dropped goes immediately into the bucket with all the free agents. All trades must be approved by the Commish and will be visible to the entire league. -- Brian
