Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I put the bottle down this year. First time since I was 12 I will not be playing any Fantasy Football. That is 27 year stretch of playing FF.
I can remember when I was teenager we had a 5 Star Notebook for each year that we kept the stats and teams in. You handed in your lineup Friday afternoon before school ended then Tuesday the Commish would use the USA Today newspaper and calculate everyone's score. You really had to love it back in those days; lots of work involved without the web. Any ways good luck to everyone this year! Maybe I will be back next year.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
My team;

Detroits defense is still available. Should I pick them up and drop Jacobs? Hillman? Royster?

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
How do most of your leagues do scoring? This year I dropped TDs to 4 points because I was getting annoyed at TD vultures. I added bonuses for topping 100, 150 and 200 yards for RB/WR and for throwing certain numbers for QBs as well. This way you get rewarded for great performances versus people like Jacobs who used to have 5 yards and 3 TDs.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
I dunno. For that I would think I was punishing something that was more impressive than a one yard run. We'll see how it goes this year, but I always thought it was BS when a single player beat you who didn't even rush for fifty yards.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread
We dropped our TD passing points to 4 instead of 6 a few years ago, to lessen the impact of the stud QBs, but every other TD is 6 points. But I'm finding that 4 points for passing TDs is more common than being the exception anymore.
