Great stuff. you'll have some threatening to leave if you do run a second faab and they miss out because they aren't at a computer. owners KNEW yesterday that a hurricane was coming this weekend. ultimately it's on the OWNER to have a backup ready. (ps - i'm taking a zero in one league).

If there are owners not monitoring the situation than maybe they do not want to field a full team as bad as they should?

As someone who owns A. Johnson on just about every single team... as well as having the suspended S. Smith on my NFFC main, you can understand my irritation. I can't even field a full team in the NFFC main now. There must be a way around this in the spirit of fairness given the stakes. And what do you do in the spirit of fairness for those owners who said this game may not be played and picked up that extra defense or kicker?

I'm still stunned the NFL did this. They moved a game with the Chargers due to the fires a couple of years ago but this one they want to massively alter the schedule for? I didn't see it coming.

my guess is that if the game doesn't take place this week, any texan or raven gets ZERO points. As much as I do not want to admit it, you might be right about this. I have Schaub, A. Johnson, Daniels, McGahee, Rice on my NFFC main event team. I can't even field 3 WR's playing in wcoff if this happens. [/QUOTE]...the SNAKEsquad would be left without a Kicker on BOTH Main teams as he has Kris Brown...UNACCEPTABLE & UNFAIR are two words that quickly come to mind here...SNAKE [/QUOTE]Damn Snake, I wouldn't mind being the lucky sonofabitch to play ONE of those Main teams this week.

It's almost like the NFL reporting that every player on the Ravens and Texans roster was "questionable/doubtful" when there was a 50% chance at a game cancellation.

I didn't have many players from those two teams...but I sure the hell would have hit the WW to back up Andre Johnson given the news the past 4 days.

[/QUOTE]Rob Benetti may be the beneficiary of me having to take a 0 with the Ravens D in the KP Auction league.
