Quoted from Mrbill:yup 1st game is thursday. I dont think there will be any postponed games this time.
I am not 100% sure on last minute covid players. I cant find anything on it. If there is one in you starting lineup, I think you can pull them out even after the game is played. Did anyone try last year? I guess we shall see.
I was thinking, if someone gets caught with a covid player in their lineup and you cant pull him out. (say diggs is covid and you do not notice until 11am PSt after the 10am PST kickoff). We can make a rule, you can declare it and say put in player xxx off my bench. But you need to declare it in the league notes covid section and the player you want subbed in can not have already played.
what do you guys think? Fair? or tough luck?
Im flexible on this but leaning towards tough luck.
Quoted from mcluvin:Have any of you ever been in a league where everybody just lost interest and the commish sends out communications but doesn't respond to any? I'm about to draft in one of those leagues.
not a cash league I hope.
Quoted from Mrbill:Maybe, but with Julio, there might be more passing and less running. Henry does not catch many passes. Plus no back has ever had back to back #1 seasons since I think Tomlinson.
Personally, I would rather have kamara over henry.
yes Kamara was on my team last year and got me a million points in the playoffs in 1 game.
Quoted from TheLaw:It isn't Julio that worries me aboot Henry because let's face it that guy does NOT have good TD numbers, he'll just fall over on the 1 yardline, it's that post 2K rushing season. I picked 3rd and had to decide on Henry or Kamara and it pained me to go Henry (of course @ 5 it isn't even a thought). I had Kamara in 2019 and that season was dreadfull, so i had to pass him by and that could be a mistake.
We shall see.
doesnt Henry avg about 140 yards per game.Hes a man among boys.With Brees out last year Kamaras numbers suffered.This is a new year we will see soon.
Quoted from mcluvin:CMC ain’t got a TD (yet) and still crushing it…
My team took the deuce this week only 3 players scored more than projected and most not even close.Losing by 4 points with 3 minutes left kept the suspense up.And switched over to the Mannings announced game.But you did pretty good.

Quoted from Mrbill:I wonder how bad cmc is. They let him walk to Locker room. But it sucks to loose your #1 pick. Killed my buddys ataru team last year when cmc went down.
Mills got a td already and looked good when he had time to throw. Messed up Carolina streamers. I think Houston is going to win this..
Im 2 starting running backs down and my team may deuce but we will keep trying to right the ship.

Quoted from mcluvin:It sucks knowing you are getting vultured, but CMC still getting 20+ the last couple games. I picked up Cam in a couple leagues where I was having QB issues. I'm not complaining....
yep thats a good double punch.

CMC out again.This is the least successful team I have ever put together.Now I know how the other half lives.My whole team has crapped the bed before but not every week.I may kick all of my players out of the dog house onto the street.
Quoted from Mrbill:I just emailed the leagues this. I am formally ending covid backups for the rest of the season in all leagues. It has not been an issue so far this season, but I think it will be in the next 2 or 3 weeks. so better to drop it now, than have it cause a bunch of questions/problems soon. good luck to all.
--------------------
Were in the playoffs now. Thanks to all who played and their season is now over. Good luck to all who remain in the chase!
One bit if business, Someone actually made a really good argument that I had not thought of. That allowing people to designate a covid backup is not fair and that allows managers to be more aggressive and be bailed out if their guy does not play. Its somewhat similar to someone questionable at game time with an injury and being able to swap them if they did not play. Its allowing protection for one risk and not another.
So far, only 1 person has asked for a covid backup in 3 leagues and they did it after kickoff and did not post it. So I think its best to do away with my offer to help with covid backup players. So plan accordingly. decide when active/inactives come out before each game.
It looks like a waive of covid is coming. It looks like the rams and cleveland are getting hit hard. good luck!
Thanks everyone ,I had a poor showing this year but I did enjoy every minute.Good Luck to those that are left and see you next year.

Quoted from cscmtp:Looks like I've made the finals next week, despite the fact I started Thielen over St. Brown. whew!
thielen choked again for me
Quoted from Mrbill:Well, that sucked. Instead of getting dakked, I got waddled. Waddle scored me a ton of points in the other pinside league. Got me to within 8 with more than quarter to go and then they flipped to running game as saints could do nothing..
glad the last second swap out of gibson for gallup was not the reason I lost. Pretty much kelce not clearing and hunter henry shitting the bed..
I got beat up because Kamara wasnt used again.
Quoted from mcluvin:4th place is probably a lock for me.

Quoted from Mrbill:I added 2 slots to yahoo pinside ballers to make it 12, I think my friend will go back to just playing on nfl, so its really probably at 9 right now.

yahoo Pinside is full at 12. klov on nfl.com is also full at 12. I will post if anyone wants to drop on those 2 leagues and put the join link.
also what did you guys think of the weekly winners part from last year? I think it went well. I was worried it would be one sided, but it was decent mix of weekly winners.
I was happy with everything last year except my record.

Quoted from mcluvin:Sorry I was busy helping repair an AC, investigate a KLOV crime, and install a wheel bearing.
