Dumb Rule about Free Agents

B. If you really needed a TE, you should've bid on EVERY single TE available to insure you had one.

C. The NFFC will go on without you. Yep, this pretty much sums it up.

So to be clear here, you ponied up $1,300 to play and THOUGHT you could pick up players "whenever", just because it happens everywhere else??? :confused:

Looks like you learned a tough lesson in reading directions/rules before setting out to do something.

My point in bringing up the Texans/Ravens game was that there was a BIG CHANCE that the game would not happen... Right? Ok, I know many owners of Texans/Ravens took this into consideration... So what they did was prepare for the worst, they dumped a player that they could live without, and picked up a Just In Case (Insurance) player. I did so myself, not saying that my pick-ups that week helped me that much, but I picked them up just in case the game did not go on. That might have been naive for me to do, but I got 6.5 from my TE and D that week because I picked up a couple of players. Despite getting my #&! kicked that week by CC in my main league, those 6.5 points are points I got that could help me come crunch time. Who knows, I'm just being naive...

[/QUOTE]So now it's style that gets you booted? :confused:

Just because SNAKE's in his own world, does that really mean he needs banned? What country do we live in?

The way Glenn gets treated reminds me of the scene in Monty Python's Holy Grail....when they bring the witch to be burned. That seems to be the kind of trial some of you guys want.

Or better yet, I know most have a Bible...read John 8.
FAITH IS NOT BELIEVING THAT GOD CAN....
IT IS KNOWING THAT HE WILL

I am in CBS, ESPN, and 2 other not as well known leagues and they all have a waiver period but after that you can add and drop at will. I like the no trade policy but the FA rule??? cmon! Also I really didnt think I needed to bid on more than 2 TE's but I guess I was wrong. At least the TE position doesnt give that many points, so I am not missing out that much. you need to bid on a whole bunch because people will purposely block you if they know you need a TE.

Did you read the rules AFTER Friday night and 6 weeks into the season? In the grand scheme of things, you gave up 5 to 10 pts this weekend. A couple of weeks ago when Eli Manning was on a bye, C Palmer was the only other qb I had and then I read on Sunday morning he was not going to play because of his elbow injury. Now that sucks taking a 0 at qb! The NFFC is as fair as it gets. Everyone is on an even playing field.
