Gordon, are you really going to keep that signature for another 1,300 posts? Can't we separate politics and fantasy football on these boards? I mean, let us at least leave the real world while we're having fun here, okay? to tell you the truth...i haven't thought about the next 1300 posts. i would say "no"

Gordon, this needs to be announced publicly: you are the only Top 5 team to not have either Drew Bennett or Billy Volek on your roster. Keep up the fantastic effort!

I had already planned on proposing this change, but it was listed here, so I'll add it now:

Playoff teams will take their weekly scoring average times two into the playoff round and combine that total with scores from Weeks 14, 15 and 16 to determine the overall champion. Teams in the Consolation Bowl would also take their weekly scoring average times two into the post-season and combine that total with scores from Weeks 14, 15 and 16.

This is still a small consolation to the consistent regular season finishers, but I think it does give a better advantage heading into the playoffs. Tomorrow I'll put these proposals all into a separate thread and let the feedback continue. I think this is a GREAT idea Greg!

I am against a playoff as to me, if the H2H and the point leader aren't the same team, the power ranking should break the tie. rick, the power ranking ain't going to happen. it seems like it's either the "way it is now" or have a playoff if the top record team isn't the top point team. which one do you pick? [/QUOTE]Yea RICK... if Gekko says it isn't going to happen, it can't POSSIBLY happen!

Jesus Gekko, you might be the most arrogant piece of _______ I have ever come across! Not even a MINOR part of the persons making the rules for next year, and your telling people what can and can't happen!

Maybe if I ever meet you in person you can show me that trick where you walk on water? :rolleyes:

If you would have finished 3rd this past year, you would have been pushing for more money for 3rd. It seems like all your proposed rule changes are about YOU rather than the better for the ENTIRE league!

It seems like all your proposed rule changes are about YOU rather than the better for the ENTIRE league! if i finished 3rd in my league, i'd have the same stance. funny how you'd know what i'd be "pushing" for.

let's go to an example i posted last night...

initially, i didn't respond because you sounded foolish, and i didn't feel it necessary to call you out in front of your peers. now you opened the door. thanks for the opportunity.

please specify what rule I proposed that only my team could benefit from, and not any other teams. go ahead and speak up. thank you.
