It's a flex player OPTION.
you weren't forced to start chambers at flex. YOU chose to start him at flex.
Is my "weekend warrior" prep better than your prep?

P.S. But at least you're carrying a backup Kicker and Defense on their byes instead of more position players. There's a lesson to be learned here, see if you can figure out what it is. nag - i found it interesting that the week you sandbagged me, your team slipped to 3-3.

was i tricked by holt and mccariens being listed as probable on friday...YES. i will also say this is a problem with only having 18 man rosters and trying to manage bye weeks. i take no responsibility for this.

I am not looking for an argument.

The flex is NOT a starting position. WR, TE RB is a position.

Flex is an OPTION as to what of those 3 positions you can use there. It should be FLEXIBLE who/when that player is placed in that linep place.....

Please show me where it states the Flex is a perminent submitted spot in a lineup.....

I also do not appreciate having NO REPLY and NO PHONE number to speak with someone in case of a lineup submission problem.

nag is only 1/4 in making the playoffs in the wcoff/nffc. if he happens to go 0/2 this year (and i was his financial advisor), i'd tell him to give up fantasy football.

I also do not appreciate having NO REPLY and NO PHONE number to speak with someone in case of a lineup submission problem. This is not a problem if you put the early/earliest games in the WR / RB positions ... and put the last player at Flex. Why didn't you play Chambers at WR? Did you think he might become a TE mid week or something? You say you don't want an argument ... but you sure are bad mouthing others for your lineup mistake. Did you not think players would lock as their games started? Why would this week be any exception?

I feel your pain ... I learned from making the same mistake ... it's called wisdom. I just didn't blame others for it (I realized it was a learning curve). Get over it ... and be smarter next time.

I'll do it this way.

The WCOFF does not "lock" a flex player as a Flex. They simply play a position.
THAT FILLS THE FLEX SPOT

I don't need any LESSONS. Thanks.

I NEED the lineup submission to be FLEXIBLE.

Greg will fix it I'm sure.

Show me where it says that flex spot is LOCKED as a position.....
And that poition is then FILLED w/o change based on game start times!

Absurd.


5. Starting Lineup Requirements: Starting lineups will consist of:
1 Quarterback
2 Running Backs
3 Wide Receivers
1 Tight End
1 Flex Player (RB, WR or TE)
1 Kicker
1 Team Defense/Specials Team
