We should prolly vote on the 2 weeks playoff thing... it should be single elim. Streaks/Luck is part of the game.
If this wasn't ESPN, this probably wouldn't even be an issue. It's just stupid for some reason.

That's fine. However, you seem to be the only one with an issue on the 2 week playoff structure. I don't care either way, but it does eliminate flukes.

And, this isn't a standard ESPN setting, this is how I set it up because I prefer 2 week playoffs.

I think I'm the only one "mentioning" it. Other's are basically saying the same thing.

ESPN introduced it. That's why I brought up ESPN. It may not be default but for the last 3 years I've been in an ESPN league like that and playoffs aren't exciting at all when the format is like that. There's nothing like winning and advancing. Not, win and see if you can keep the lead against the same team next week.

I'm not sure where you see that others are basically saying the same thing, but we can have a vote when the league fills if you would like that will address playoff structure and also payouts.

I can see from your responses, that you must not have lost a matchup in the playoffs when you clearly had the better team and had one guy on the other team come out of nowhere and beat you in the playoffs.

Actually, I was the guy that squeaked in the playoffs last year and totally kicked ass to take the $ (LAST SEED). But if I lost I'd be ok with that too.

I'm the studier at the end of the season that does due diligence and get the most out of the Pierre Garcon's that'll play for Reggie Wayne, etc. I felt like I was highly rewarded. So it wasn't really a fluke I kicked ass since my competitive detective skills took over at the end of the season.

Put me down for a 4 team 2 week single elimination playoff. The winners advance and the losers play for 3rd place. I also still vote for only paying out 1-3, no highest scoring team over the yeaer crap. Going with 4 places spreads the winners dough to thin. Besides the 4th team lost it's last 2 games and has nothing to complain about.

I'll definitely agree to not paying 4th. I would argue that we should look at payouts something like this:

Champion: $600
2nd Place: $400
3rd Place: $100

1st Place Points: $100

I'd so no 1st place pts and give the $100 to 3rd place.

And I'd be fine with that too.
