I'm screwed. I hope swap/trade options are fairly liberal.

Lulz, totally forgot about the draft. I hope the autorankings were halfway decent.

I don't think it could end up any worse than what I got.

I'm not too happy with mine, but it's my own fault for not changing up my preferences :P.

I have to say, I like ESPN's format better. Either way, this should be fun, even if a few of us totally forgot about the draft.

I really don't care for FleaFlicker so far.

Also, I wish everyone would actually try to set a team each week. Looks like some people have flat out given up and it's only week 2. Multiple teams starting players who have been ruled out for a while, not just gametime decisions. While I'm glad it is a large league since I signed up late, next season should probably be limited to 12-14 teams. That leaves a lot more players open on the FA list to try to retool your team if things are no good the first few weeks, and keeps people trying to play competitively for longer.

I've always felt that Yahoo has the best Fantasy Football system. Haven't tried NFL.com's recently, though. But it seems like Yahoo has the best combination of features, presentation, and options. They seem to be ahead of the rest of the pack when it comes to adding new elements, too.

We did ESPN last year in one league, and it had some obnoxiously bad webpage design in a few areas (and at the time, they were charging $5.00 for their mobile app!).

Yahoo and NFL.com are both very good fantasy FB platforms. CBSSports.com isn't bad either.

I honestly just hate the fleaflicker design and can't figure out some stuff, so I kinda stopped caring -_-. If we do it again next year and use Yahoo I'll be all in though.

I think the design is terrible, but I haven't had any trouble finding stuff or setting my team or adding/dropping players.

Same deal. Not a fan of it, but certainly usable. Missing a few things I like, but overall, it works.

I'm still kind of learning the ropes. I did try to set a up a lineup this week and I had a guy be injured for start time that 0 really Not that it matters too much because I believe I still got my *** kicked.

I have to tout my score this week:

Matthew Stafford 23.93
Jeremy Maclin 23.85
A.J. Green 15.70
Devery Henderson 12.90
Peyton Hillis 14.85
Arian Foster 2.50
Fred Davis 10.80
Stephen Gostkowski 9.00
Detroit 21.00

James Anderson 3.50
Clay Matthews 5.00
Tommy Kelly 0.50
Mario Williams 2.00
Aqib Talib 1.00
Donte Whitner 8.00

Total
Projected: 87.46
Actual: 154.53


Damn near doubled my projected (and 75 pts is about the average weekly total in our league). Absolutely steamrolled my opponent, who had the second highest score with 110.

I wish there was a setting to force inactive teams to at least set the highest projected lineup.

My win this week was pure fluke. 3 of my starters were on bye. Of course, that's the kind of thing you need from time to time to stay near the top.

My loss this week was a product of a mostly bad team.

I'd really like to just blow up the inactive teams and send their players to waivers. There isn't a whole lot the people actually trying to win can do to supplement their rosters. 20 teams eats up a lot of players.

I'd love to see all the players on the inactive teams just go to free agency/waivers.

Waivers would really be best, so we would basically have to draft them. Oh, and apparently it's 8 inactive teams, though the top two could feasibly have just used a Ron Popeil strategy 'til their players are on byes.

I'd rather see just their benches put back in to circulation. Waivers/free agency would be a nightmare mid-season for that many players.

Seriously. That's why no-drop lists exist.

Playing in a work league and the person I beat last week has an open RB slot and had two players on bye. I want their Greg Jennings. Especially since Roy Williams is garbage.

That'd be fine, too.
