I was last year and ended up managing another 2-3 teams full time. New job has had me too busy to be proactive about it this year, but I agree with the unfair impact.

We can talk about a better solution for next year.

I'm happy to appoint one or more co-comissioners to help... Or set up a small $ buy-in (ex: $10) to help ensure accountability. One of my other leagues does a weekly payout to the highest scoring team. The best team(s) win it more frequently.... But even back of the pack teams win it occasionally. Gives an incentive for everyone to stay active, skin in the game.

Open to other solutions too.

I lean towards the $10 ante. Would make it a little more exciting for everyone and if you want to abandon well thanks for the donation.

I had another game earlier this year where my receiver (A J Brown) only needed 7 points to make me a winner on Monday night. He was injured on the first set of downs, finished with 1 rec. for 7 yds...yeah I didn't win that one.

Now I need 13 points and some change from Hopkins, but Murray goes down in the first set of downs on Arizona's well manicured turf (yeah right) and it's not looking good for me again. :-)

Tough one. I needed Dhop to stay under 13 to make the playoffs in this league and to score more than 9 to make the cut in my other.

He scored 12.9.

But my biggest move after losing Lamar was starting Dangeruss against KC.

:-)

Yeah, I saw that you did that. Pretty gutsy move, but it paid off. :-)

And even the announcers commented 2-3 times about Hopkins being wide open and not getting the ball. On their last play, the DB backed off him about 10-12 yds. Frustrating. Good game, less than a point difference.

Thanks to you winning by half a point, my dream of sneaking into the playoffs is gone. I'm not actually eliminated yet but the point difference will stop me from finishing an epic comeback.

Oh, and you still have to beat otter to get in the playoffs.
[Reply]

Yeah, that only bought me another week.

Going to have to stream shit one more week to get in this one.
[Reply]

Good game, you made me sweat.

Unless I'm misreading the tea leaves, MahomesMagic and Otter are basically playing a "win and in" matchup this week for the playoffs.

Think Carlos, Crow, and myself are basically locked in to the playoffs?

If Otter wins, Tye can also make the playoffs with a win and a record setting point total.
[Reply]

Yeah, you could have just left the last sentence off.
[Reply]

No, it was very intentional... :-) :-) :-)
[Reply]

Congrats to @me

Oh, and Crow, Otter, and Carlos too...

Much like in real life I took the hardest path available. :-)

Thanks for organizing Keller and good luck to all but the best to me.

Good luck to you contenders. It's a rebuild year for the flaming aids dumpsters.
