Wait, is there an IL? I suggested it before draft and there was no interest.

Don't think it would be fair to implement an IL now. Should have voted on it before the draft imho

You are correct, I confused it with BOSF.

There is no IL this year in FFL.

For some reason, I cannot change it back on yahoo but there is no IL so if you put anyone on IL, then it will be considered a drop and I will drop him manually from your IL spot.

its always nice when you open your fantasy league yahoo and have trade offers

BUT

two simple things to keep in mind

A) Porzings is NOT for SALE unless from the other side i see a guy named Westbrook or Harden
B) Puff da magic Dragic therefor IF i trade Him I m trading the "Brand" and i need to find a new name and Sh*t so that is also cost

Hey guys, I just had 2 drafts, can you comment on how I did?

This is a 14 team x 14 player league and my punt assist build, I had 12 dollars to spare in this one :banghead:

and this is a 16 team x 13 player league and my punt FT% and semi punt Points-3s-Assists build:

well when 1 st arrive here a few years ago, the mods always reply into the fantasy bball and several thread were created per day
its been dead for the past years none cares
its not my circus and its def. not my monkey

If you want enthusiasm and people to care just my advice would be BM
mods here in fantasy basketball are important bc they can invite their friends to BOSH and keep their place there, create FFL and FFDL

nothing more

if you want enthusiasm here its mine

Image

you could always wait for their reply
but 1st they would actually do their job
or even better know a bit of fantasy
on the other hand it would be also nice that they could be here during the beg. of fantasy bball season but they normally also not here since they have something to do ...

well they always show up to say i m rude and they dont understand what i wrote.
its my best
at least they might show up
:roll:

I think I like the second team better than the first. Team A looks to have some weaker players towards the tail end but isn't top heavy.

Team B you did a wonderful job of tanking FT%.

First team is built with 188 dollars, that's why. I was an auction noob and I probably still am but I think that team looks formidable to me. Here are FFL pick ranks for Team A and then in parenthesis you may find what it would be like if my draft was a standard snake draft, me starting at pick 2. You'll see that there are still many many value picks. Though, if I had spent that extra 12 dollars, the team would have looked incredibly strong.

2 - Anthony Davis (2)
26 - Oladipo (27)
43 - Gorgui Dieng (30)
56 - Chandler Parsons (let's say he's top 70) - (55)
68 - Myles Turner (His stock raised to top 50 since our draft) - (58)
92 - Avery Bradley (83)
103 - Demarre Carroll (86)
108 - Gary Harris (111)
109 - Steven Adams (His stock is top 60-70 right now) (114)
114 - Danny Green (139)
115 - Patrick Beverley (142)
119 - Cody Zeller (167)
123 - Marcus Smart (170)
130 - Courtney Lee (195)

Hey guys...weird not being in this league after over a decade in it.

For those that didn't know, as part of my plight for tenure (the reason I had to take a sabbatical from this league in the 1st place), I'll be teaching/researching in Austria next year. We've put together a YouTube channel chronicling our adventures. Most of it is witty and sarcastic travel stuff. If you want to check in and see what we're up to...check out the channel:

Best of luck to everyone this season! I'm hoping to join back up next season...not sure I can go 2 years without Fantasy BBall.
