FFDL [draft starts this Saturday!]

With all the injuries we've had this season it's a little hard to keep up. And Pierce missed a bunch of games and should have missed more considering how he shot when he did play. Ben Gordon was hurt too. Now I have Parker and TJ Ford hurt. (This is like deja vu all over again).

If we were tanking Sly must have done a better job at it.

When I knock Kohanz out of the playoffs for you, I want you to remember I did you a favor.

Count me as an unofficial TheTeam bandwagonner this week. If you could beat him 7-2 or 8-1, would that be too much to ask?

(sorry Kohanz, it's business)

Injuries are piling up. Good thing we have a week off to rest everyone.

Who else thinks it's hilarious that the prick who was so intent on steamrolling through everyone earlier this year that he streamed to get victories and to win big over the bottom-feeders, now limps into the playoffs with his tail between his legs?

With the way things are going, George and I have a better chance of pushing Jordan out of the playoffs than leapfrogging Kohanz. Still, it's a stretch (I'll need an 8-1 or 9-0 win over George), but I will say this: GO SKAI!

Me. Jordan is such a wanker.

Oh Coady...

For the record, I'll be smashed in the playoffs if I do make it. Injuries have killed me.

Post #1509 » by **sly** » Sun Mar 21, 2010 1:47 pm

okay... here's the rule...

There is a max add limit of 5 players for Week 1 and Week 2 in the playoffs. That's 5 additions for each week. This includes any IL transactions.

For the final week, this increases to 7.

I won't have time to monitor it; so, if your opponent is getting close to that limit, please make a note on the board so we can keep an eye on it.

Any IL additions that happen today won't affect your cap. Any other player add will go against your cap for next week...

IMHO that's way too many moves

I agree. I think it should be 3, and then 5 for the final week.

If we go 3 and 5 for transactions, then I wouldn't want to include IL transactions. This week I had 4 IL transaactions as two players missed their fifth games Monday and Tuesday, but came back Friday and Saturday.

I think that's fair.

We'll stick with the 5 adds... IL adds included. I don't like restriction of movement and this puts everybody on the same page. I don't like rewarding managers who are too active on the wire; but, I also don't like rewarding managers who aren't using the wire, either. For bottom feeders like me, the playoffs are also a chance to get talent that aren't seeing much time. Movement on the wire is good for the league...

Post #1515 » by **CFan21** » Sun Mar 21, 2010 6:49 pm

Can we keep it at 5 for every week of the playoffs though?

The final week is 1 1/2 weeks of fantasyball... with half of the decent fantasy players seeing reduced minutes and tonnes of players sitting with injuries. I think 5 adds with IL's included would be too restrictive during that time, personally.

6pm EST on Sunday and I'm up 7-1....1 steal and 6 boards (net) and I make the improbably come back into the playoffs and a much anticipated date to knock out Carl from the playoffs in the 2nd round.

Don't you need TheTeam to beat Kohanz at least 5-4? It's going to come down to the wire!

Or as long as Jordan loses as horribly as he is now, it may be fine too....

But I would like to officially cry foul on TheMan for this week. He sat most of his guys yesterday and left Magette on his bench on Friday. This time he can't use the "I didn't know if they were injured" excuse from Monday. Had he set his lineup yesterday and Friday, he'd be winning at least 5-4 if not 6-3 right now.

Bottom line is: TheMan is sitting his guys so my 1st rounder in 2010 (which I traded him a few weeks ago) will have a better chance of getting him a top pick. Shameful, simply shameful. Especially since the difference between 8th and 6th doesn't earn you that many "lottery balls".

We're close in a lot of categories with a lot of play left today. It'll be interesting to see if I end up spoiling your playoff bid or not. Brian could beat me 9-0 this week, but remarkably I could still pull out a 5-4 win. His playoff chances will likely go down to the final game of tonight.
