well I suppose I can partake in one decimal point league...

I just wish more people would understand how important/more realistic 2 QB leagues are...

It makes guys like Matt Ryan, Byron Leftwich, Matt Cassel, Matt Hasselbeck, Trent Edwards, Brian Brohm, Michael Vick, Jason Campbell, Sam Bradford, etc. etc. etc. IMPORTANT...

it makes finding that QB sleeper a conquest, a must, a league changer...rather than having all of those guys on waivers all year

I think that's such a waste of a league...1 QB leagues should NOT exist

I just don't like it...

I mean...

if that's what it will take for everyone to agree with my proposal...then I suppose fractional points will do...

I just don't like adding up my points at a sports bar while I'm watching football and being like..

ok Fitzy got me 18.3 and LT got me 11.4 and Favre got me 22.9...

Jesus.
I've played decimals since the 90's and I've seen entire fantasy games decided by 1 yard.Say what you will but when MNF rolls around and I need 78 yards from my rb to win my game,it's a whole lot more interesting.

in ESPN traditional (4 points for QB TD's, 6 points for other TD's)...

what position always goes for the first 30 picks?

RB's

that's lame

same with any 4 point QB TD league

my proposal has adjusted the values of positions and you could literally make an argument for taking any player from any positions (sans TE) 1st...

you think Andre Johnson is going to have 125/1700/19...that's #1 pick value...

you think Brady is going to throw 50 again? that's an EASY #1 pick

CJ goes all 2009 once again? easy #1 pick value

it makes everything SO MUCH more interesting when every position is on level playing ground
I can see what your saying. I am comfortable doing that if everyone else is. I don't like using the intervals of 10 though. I just don't like that 99 yards rushing has the same value as 90.

EXACTLY my argument AGAINST it.
In a 12 team 2 QB league every team pretty much has to have at least three QBs (two to play and one to cover bye weeks). While you can generally find someone to plug into a RB or WR slot that will get a carry/reception or two there are only 32 starting QBs.

Which is exactly Hootie's point.

It makes you actually think about draft strategy instead of just following the same cheatsheet everyone else has.

1-QB leagues really aren't much of a challenge, because everyone has a quality QB.

Old Dog 07-22-2010 02:53 PM
With your scoring system, 16 of the top 20 last year would have been QBs. Starting 2 makes them even moreso.

McNabb, Cutler, and ELI Manning would have outscored every RB other than C. Johnson
Campbell and Orton outscored Ray Rice and Andre Johnson

INSANITY

Why don't we just let him be out of the league and let him find his perfect 2 QB no decimal point league?

Why are we even wasting time on this one?
No offense Dragon, but we're all for it and you're the only nay.
Only reason I see to have you in the league is the excitement we'll get from beating your ass from time to time. The headaches though just isn't worth it.

Nzoner 07-22-2010 03:01 PM
Shit want to make your league even more interesting,draft coaches like we do,if you're starting coach wins he gets 5 pts,you'd be surprised how many times that 5 points comes into play and also affects your draft strategy so you don't end up with a regular loser.

Kind of a cool idea as well.

Agreed. I don't want to be in a league with a bunch of drama filled bitching.

I like it. I didn't know you can set your league setup for that.

ESPN has the option.
I've done it and it definitely changes a draft in the mid rounds. In one league we scored them like defenses with how many points they scored based on margin of victory or defeat....

Old Dog 07-22-2010 03:40 PM
FWIW, I don't think arguing about things NOW is a bad idea. It's much better to come to some sort of agreement on settings and let everyone then decide if they want in or not.

Of course it's all a moot point when D3 sets it up with 100 points per pass attempt, 1 point per net punting yard, and 2 TEs mandatory with only 1 RB slot and says, "Accept it or GTFO".
