It’s not a money league and I think we have 8 rn…you should join!

Usually I'm a money league guy! But if there's 10 I'm in. Teams will still be pretty stacked even at 10.

Suggestion since it's ESPN. They have a feature I love called "bonus wins and losses". Which is, if you finish in the top half for the week, extra W. Finish bottom half, extra L! Balances out some of the matchup luck


I don't see this feature. It would be good, so things like Duke finishing with the most points and being 2-12 don't happen, but I can't find it.


I know im quoting the same post twice, but just to try, i looked up the instrcutions..

Click on LM tools tab
Click on League settings
Click on Edit in the Regular Season setup
Check the box next to bonus wins and losses

It would suck if we can't do that! Makes no sense being that its an ESPN feature. I don't know if the league pre-existing this feature (2022) has something to do with it, but my fantasy hoops league started in 2016 and the feature was added to it.

Won't matter. It won't get the votes before the draft. I've been running my own money leagues for years and I would never vote for that setting change.

Just out of curiosity, why not?

Theres nothing more annoying in fantasy sports than finishing a week 2nd or 3rd and losing, while some other A-hole finishes 10th and gets a W. Having that feature helps reward or punish weekly performance more accordingly

There is no second or 3ird every week. Its individual match ups each week, you win or lose. Its that simple.

Im looking forward to this! 12 is really the ideal # for football so glad we got there.

Its your guys world and im just living in it so im down for whatever. Playoffs though is best served as top 6 get in, with top 2 get byes. But im ok with whatever everyone wants to do.
