Seriously, man. If 8 of 10 guys in a league are streaming, what's the point? That really is a matter of "who can push the button the fastest."

Streaming is b.s. any way you cut it because it severely diminishes the importance of the draft.

A fantasy league in which an owner has to draft well, make smart waiver and FA adds, and pull off some trades to win it is something most people would call a "fun" league. A fantasy league where an owner has to beat someone to the button by 30 seconds every other day so he can two starts out of Mike Pelfrey this week is something most people would call stupid.

You're describing a roto league...which is fine. I love roto. It makes the draft SUPER important. H2H allows you to mess up a little on draft day...

Streaming is a big part of H2H...sorry if you guys can't acknowledge that.
