nZane Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 What's the set-up and everything like? I've got way too much free time on my hands, so another fantasy league would probably be ok for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nZane Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 A thought popped into my head when looking at the league scoring rules earlier, and I figured I'd ask it here. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but looking at the league set-up it appears that we get credit for a Kickoff/Punt Return TD on both the offensive and defensive sides. For example, let's say Devin Hester returns a kick for a TD. The person who has him on their team and active would get the six points for the TD. Also, whomever has the Chicago D/ST active would get six points. Sound about right? I'm just curious because it could make a few guys more appealing to me...

PeterHilton Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Nope. Returns TDs are only applied to the DEF/ST. The individual player gets no credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nZane Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 So, on the [URL="http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/259950/settings"]Yahoo settings page[/URL], what are the Return TDs it lists? If you look, it lists Reception Yards, Reception Touchdowns, and Return Touchdowns. Then down below the defensive categories it lists Kickoff And Punt Return Touchdowns. Or is this just another instance of Yahoo being weird? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed the returnd TDs just were rewarded to the special teams, but I guess you get the points as well if you have a guy on your roster who is a returns guy. EDIT: Actually, now I'm not sure because I just went to Reggie Bush and they don't show him getting any fantasy points for any of his return TDs.

nZane Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 I think I saw somewhere that when you set up a league you can specify which way you want to do it. Maybe MJD can shed a bit more light on this for us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD, if you could clarify, that would be most appreciated, as customizations would have us reassess our draft boards and strategy. And for the record, I'm not travelling anywhere this week and I'll be online with bells on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjdgoldeneye Posted August 18, 2007 Author Share Posted August 18, 2007 I just turned Punt/Kick Returns TD's off for Individual Players. Yahoo! has Kick/Punt returns on default for only individuals, but I turned on the ST portion, but forgot to switch the other off. ONLY Special Teams can score Kick Return/Punt Return TD's now. It makes more sense because it allowed CB's and other Defensive players to score. Ignore i effin rule's roster positions. IDK why he has defensive guys in there... Your roster should be: 1 QB 2 RB 2 WR 1 Flex WR/RB 1 TE 1 K 1 DEF/ST 6 Bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nZane Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 I effin rule's rosters are for an ESPN fantasy football league he was needing another person for (which I'm now a part of). At this point, I'm well aware of the roster requirements and I'm just waiting for the draft tomorrow to see if all of the effort I put into compiling data and forming an educated opinion pays off. I'm very interested to see how this draft plays out... By the way, are we setting a time limit on picks tomorrow, or how is that going to work? Or are we just skipping time limits entirely?

mjdgoldeneye Posted August 18, 2007 Author Share Posted August 18, 2007 Um, let's make it so that you have 15 minutes to get to the draft room after 4 PM EST, and after that, if some people aren't on, we start, and then you have 10 minutes to pick. Obviously, if you're here and give a reason for why you may take more than 10 minutes or whatever, we can give you a bit more time. If you have a feeling that yu wont be on, or if you have to leave early, PM me a strategy, and I'll try to follow it for you. If not, I'll go by Yahoo's player rankings and who you still need. And, here's an idea: [B][SIZE="5"]YOU MAY NOW PICK![/SIZE][/B] It isn't mandatory, and there isn't any time limits, but if you're on the clock, you may pick. This way, we'll be able to get some stuff done before the real draft starts. [B]nZane[/B] is up, and I'm 99.86% sure he wants LT, but I'll let him post...

masterded Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Though i will be on the PC at the time of the draft once in a while I might need to run away for a little bit (I am a security Guard). If that is the case I will try and leave a quick post letting you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nZane Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 Did you guys want to just start a new thread for the draft? Might make it easier to follow. Or not. Whatever works... And you can bump that up to 99.99% for LT. Depending on how we decide on the draft, I may make that 100%. Or not. I'm a n00b, afterall. I could throw a curveball in there...
