Wouldn't that encourage participation (not that we lack it)? Would enable us to all be as addicted to each game as possible (and destroying social lives in the process).

Was just a thought anyway to see if others shared an opinion.
Just trying to save my marriage. The wife already refers to fantasy footy as the other woman in my life!

Well fantasy footy is the only woman remaining in my life- my wife has already left!
Myself included! My girlfriend says exactly the same thing about "my other lover".

I have to agree with you. I do not like it.

a question to help me in another league...

If I make a claim for a restricted free agent and no one else does do I still lose my waiver priority?

As I predict multiple times through last season, LWP has basically given up on the league. Failed in the vetoing of some of his trades that should not have gone through and now we have a super weak team, just not good for the league. I remember Maroons giving me all sorts of slack for calling LWP out!

How are the Rivers, McKernans, Robertons of this world treating him. Long term I would rather have Vlastuin or Kennedy than all those players combine let alone all the other stuff he gave Rockford for them. This is a failure by this league and all the players in it for allowing a team to be so mismanaged. UC should of stepped in and asked a few more questions long before his team got to this state!

All he needs is 5 or 6 of his young guns to come good in the next few years and he has really solid lineup. Whitfield, Danniher, Melksham, Macmillian, Vickery, Siposs, Seedsman, Polec, Karnezis, Dickson, Fasolo, Paparone.

If he happens to stay down a few years he'll rack up some good young kids to add to his stockpile and have a good team.

Just play the league as it is and it will sort itself out.

5 or 6 young guns don't make a team. He was going for now by trading pick 14 for Rivers and we allowed that. His youth is very weak and his trading has been deplorable. Now he has abandoned the team like a true ########, good luck to whoever inherits that side. Unknown Caller what are you going to do about this?

Richcogs, how do you know he has abandoned his team? Do you know what is going on in his life? Maybe you are the true ######## for being so judgemental?
Just have to look at his trading and the current state of his team. He's done this now how many weeks out of the 7? If I could get access on a remote island in the Philippines, Rockford was able to get access on an oil rigg. If he really wanted to he could. The worst thing about it is how the team will be left though.

If he continually fails to set his lineup for the next few weeks then a replacement may be needed. Other than that, leave it as it is.
Agreed. 3 players who he had out of the team would have put him within 18 Kicks, 14 Hballs and 3 hitouts as well as being up by 7 marks, and still with a 5 to 3 player advantage.

Well, the suspense is killing me this weekend. All my players have played, and Jimmy has only Heath Scotland to go. I'm leading 6-3, and am ahead by 12 handballs, 11 marks and 2 free kicks. Scotland averages well over 12 handballs, but only around 1 free kick a game. This is going right down to the wire...
