Re: The reason Fantasy Football sucks
[ QUOTE ]
The real reason Fantasy Football sucks is that a team can finish 2nd in points(my team) and finish 5th and miss the playoffs to a 4th place team who scored the least points in the whole league.(12 team league!!!) [/ QUOTE ] That's exactly the reason why our final Wild Card spots are awarded based on points, not record. |

Re: The reason Fantasy Football sucks
I'm in two leagues, one based solely on record (I miss the playoffs with a 6-8 mark despite a 60% winning percentage in Breakdown, and the #4 point total, and leading the league in scoring 3 times), and one we do half & half. We keep head to head records and have playoffs. Some $$ is applied to this. Also some goes to the top 4 point scorers for the entire season (17 weeks).
If I had my ultimate league, we'd have 14 weeks of just scores, then the top however many scorers would make the playoffs and play it off head to head. Of course I may just be bitter because I've been in 6 head to head only leagues and have NEVER finished at or above my scoring position, except one year where I was #1 in scoring where 4 teams made the playoffs and I was the 1 seed. The 4 seed was the #2 scoring team and posted the highest score of the season on me. Variance is a bitch. |

Re: The reason Fantasy Football sucks
One of the many reasons I prefer a points race. Especially if it runs through the Super Bowl- makes draft strategy interesting trying to grab productive players who will also make the playoffs.

No, fantasy football sucks b/c a RB w/ 100 yards and 0 TDs scores fewer points that a fullback that gets a one-yard TD plunge on his only carry.

Re: The reason Fantasy Football sucks
In most I've played in Rushing TD=6pts and 20 rush yards=1 point. What is the usual then?

Re: The reason Fantasy Football sucks
Mine is certainly 20/pts rushing. My commissioner must suck, I'm talking about you, Drew16. Douchebag.

Re: The reason Fantasy Football sucks
that is an old, antiquated system. newer systems reward more consistent production over td hogs.
