Yeesh. Just did the math.

I'd be 7-2 in my cash league in a roto format.

I've been the high scorer twice, and lost to the high scorer three times.

And a week I won H2H would have been my sole loss in a roto format.

Don't know if you're referring to our set-up but if so I wanted to clarify.

We still play hth so if you're 2nd highest point total and lose to the first you're still 0-1 but you get 10 points NOT a 10-1 record.Those weekly points then accumulate for all 17 weeks as does your hth record.


Wow just reread that,what I meant to say is that 10 points looks better than a 10-1 record.Same concept but at least you're still playing to win in 2 seperate categories.

that wouldn't work for my league

80% of the fun is the H2H matchups between friends who form rivalries every year on a week to week basis...

Head-to-head just makes sure that luck is more of a variable.

I agree with OTWP, but am pretty much in the same boat as Hootie.
The league I'm talking about has been together as a 12 team league since 2000 and we've only had one owner change and that was due to a death of one of the members during a deployment prior to the '08 season.

Side note, but I still think it's kinda cool: We played the '08 season in memory of Jake with 11 owners and one auto drafted team and we took the entry fees ($2750 / $250 x 11 teams) and gave it to his family.

Personally, I would rather just play Roto-style.

The whole point of FF is to build the highest scoring roster.

In a 12-team league, the Top 6 scoring teams each week get credited with a win, and the bottom 6 with a loss.

Two highest scoring teams get a bye for the playoffs. Next 4 highest scoring teams play 1st week of playoffs.

The two highest scoring teams that week move on with the two bye teams.

The two highest scoring teams that week face each other in the championship.

The only true head-to-head matchup is in the Championship game.

That is a great system.

Under this system, I'd be 6-3.

This is one of the few years that this situation hasn’t happened to me – I typically have a bunch of points and shitty record, or vice versa. I’ve always advocated basing it on points.

I’ve never understood using head-to-head records to determine the overall winner – its not like you are building a defense and have any hope of affecting your opponent’s points. I suppose it does lend itself to the competition and shit-talking when you know the people in your league and watch the games with them every week. But it doesn’t seem right for someone to talk shit when they are 300 points behind and yet still have a better record.

Ot the asshat that tries busting balls when his team full of starters beats yours with 3 of your best players on bye.

Or the guy that spends all week b1tching about his injured/bye players, then wins, and acts like he deserves a job at ESPN.
