• Nix that. The top 6 teams by overall points
  JTP2 at Mar 21, 2021 10:13 PM
• Fyi. I will redo the divisions again. Division A is the top 6 teams in playoffs.
  JTP2 at Mar 21, 2021 10:11 PM
• Hey group, arbitration ends in 10 days. I'd you aren't coming back lmk asap so we can get a replacement
  JTP2 at Mar 21, 2021 10:07 PM
• Hahah. I never even noticed that it was spelled wrong.
  JTP2 at Mar 21, 2021 10:07 PM
• His team is sponsored by Kia
  B&S Enterprises at Feb 23, 2021 5:23 PM
• While we’re on the subject.. what does your team name mean?!!! I’ve been struggling all year to figure out why it’s “Kia” and not “Kai”
  TD Fight Club at Feb 19, 2021 1:38 PM
• Looks like my name is not working now. Oh well. Arbitration started everyone.
  JTP2 at Feb 19, 2021 1:03 AM
• 5 days until arbitration starts. If you don't plan to be in league, please let me know asap

• Thanks Detroit for the message and thanks Cobra for a fun match-up. Fun, great season. Just riding those “Diggs” coat tails! Have a great New Year everyone and a productive off season.
  The Hopsmackers at Dec 29, 2020 3:21 PM
• Congratulations HopSmackers, I did not see that one coming, respect, he won the old fashioned way. Scary squad, doesn’t have to cut to maintain. See you next year.

  JTP2 at Dec 27, 2020 11:42 PM
• Yeah it sure is. Looks like Hops took down the victory. Congrats. Even that that Kamara explosion 💥
  JTP2 at Dec 27, 2020 11:34 PM
• Unbelievable matchup for the championship
  TD Fight Club at Dec 27, 2020 10:18 PM
• Actually. By total points. The 6 teams with most points will be in top division next year, so, likely play more tops teams more times
  JTP2 at Dec 24, 2020 10:41 PM
• Just a reminder, something else I do in this league. I will re arrange the divisons based on standings. Top 6 in one and bottom 6 in the other.
  JTP2 at Dec 24, 2020 10:39 PM
• We just had a guy in another league claim a $90 M Thomas and he could not afford him and did not have enough guys to cut to get under the cap. So, the commish had to revert it and it is causing problems in that league now. Just don't want to see that that happen here. You only get half the money for guys you cut and can't rely on someone else claiming/auctioning them after you cut them.
  
  This hasn't been a problem, but just want to remind everyone.
  
  Carry on
  JTP2 at Dec 24, 2020 2:32 AM
• Remember everyone, if you claim or bid on expensive players, you must be legal afterward. You cannot be over your team's salary cap or number of legal players afterward. I see some big names available and don't want anyone to attempt to "game the system".
  JTP2 at Dec 24, 2020 2:27 AM
• Oh, I have another team in the finals with 5 college players and I am still legal.
  JTP2 at Dec 23, 2020 7:41 PM
• Seems fair and the right answer. Thanks Cobra for your post.
  
  That's interesting the gentleman is "hoarding" college guys. It takes college guys years to develop. Plus, with the $1/$4 add on plus arbitration, it seems like that would all kinda take care of itself. Just a suggestion, if we really have a desire to keep college guys, the commish can "exempt" guys out and we could do a separate Excel sheet draft of 5 guys. Kinda like a college minor league system. I like college football as well and it'd be interesting. But again, just a suggestion. Happy with the Ottoneu format. Just thinking what we do in baseball.
  The Hopsmackers at Dec 23, 2020 7:31 PM
• Basically, if your team is read, and you don't fix it within a couple of days, I will give you a chance to do so. If you don't, I will manually cut guys from your team in reverse order until you are legal.
  
  Fyi, you are enot illegal if you have over 20 guys if they are IR.
  JTP2 at Dec 23, 2020 12:59 PM
• Oh. There is no spot for it yet. I asked the site owner to add it. Here is what I have in the baseball leagues I am commish of.
  
  There are no special bylaws for this league but I do have a few things I will not allow, which I am sure are in the consensus.
  
  1. Your team should not be RED (illegal state) more than 48 hours. If it is, I will issue a warning and give you another day before that player(s) is returned to FA pool. Same thing for players who are no longer 60-DL eligible--the 60-day DL player will be cut from your team.
  
  2. At the end of season (and towards the end), your team must be valid and within your team's salary cap and number of allowable players (basically 40 + the number of rostered 60-DL players). I will first try and work with you to cut salary/players. If you are unwilling to do this, see #1 above.
  
  3. No name calling in public message board. No need to be vulgar at all. Everyone paid to be in the league, nobody wants to deal with that. Keep it clean and fun.
  
  4. I will not cancel a trade unless the owners let me know it was accepted by accident. Therefore, everyone needs to vote on trades that they think are cheating/collusion or really, really bad. Ottoneu has a voting system and I will not circumvent it, unless it looks like clear cheating AND the voting did not reach quorum (i.e., less than number required for a veto +2 (the +2 is to offset the teams involved in trade who are allowed to vote)).
  
  5. Be active. I understand if you are a rebuilding team and do not log in every day. But you still need to check stuff out and respond to messages occasionally. I will not unilaterally enforce minimal IPs or GPs, but you should still try to be active and not be one of the teams who are "rebuilding" for three years from now every season. I won't tell anyone how to run their team, but you could do many things more fun for your $75 entry fee than being THAT team perennially.
  
  6. Anything else here will come from a league vote from the majority of owners.
  JTP2 at Dec 23, 2020 12:57 PM
• It's not written down in the league settings I guess, but I'll them now. Nothing I am adding is special rules, just outlines the Ottoneu rules more specifically.
  JTP2 at Dec 23, 2020 12:53 PM
• I think the commissioner has threatened to cut guys in the past if you are illegal come 1pm on Sunday. Which I’m pro
  Finkle Is Einhorn at Dec 23, 2020 12:50 PM
• Do we have anything in our bylaws or rules requiring that your roster needs to be valid/legal at the end of the season? I have another league where a guy is now almost $100 over his budget and 10 players over his roster limit because he decided to load up on college prospects since he is out of the playoffs and their is no penalty going into the offseason. Since he doesn't have to adjust his roster and can't trade anyways, he is just hoarding players for trade bait in the offseason. He calls it strategy, league is calling it FUBAR and forcing cuts.

• For sure. And I know Coney Dogs IRL, so makes my victory that much sweeter.
  JTP2 at Dec 21, 2020 2:22 PM
• Thanks! Good luck to you as well. Been a fun year. Certainly has kept me "engaged". With everything else going on, nice to relax and play some fantasy football!

  The Hopsmackers at Dec 8, 2020 11:14 PM
• Are pickups still allowed for non-playoff teams after week 13? The rules say regular season but it’s unclear if it’s NFL or fantasy regular season.
  Coulda Been a Contender.TH at Dec 7, 2020 10:39 PM
• Not at all, that’s a banana.. think more grilled cheese but with corn bread patties
  TD Fight Club at Dec 6, 2020 6:20 PM
• Like a Plantain?
  B&S Enterprises at Dec 5, 2020 5:17 PM
• It’s basically corn bread fried with cheese inside.. very common street food here lol
