Had a quick look at his profile. Seems to be some sort of boring, bland cunt, most likely from Limerick. Iā€™d like to see a bit more venom from him come September.

Limerick, ringsend, bet he goes by ā€˜blackieā€™ in real life

Heā€™s just lucky that dumb, cheating bastard @Matty_Hislop is also in our division to absorb most of the hate filled bile. Hey matty, go fist yourself.

@count_of_Monte_Crist are they the divisions?

I donā€™t even know who you are pal. But fair play for recognising who the big dog is in our division.

Oh i know about you, i know all about you. And Iā€™ll take great pleasure in doing what successive regimes failed to do, and send you to turd town.

The divisions are not yet set.

Will we have the draw ā€˜live on airā€™ on the forum?

OK, if you insist.

  • Not sure how you run your rosters here but presuming itā€™s 1QB/2RB/3WR/1TE/1 FLEX. I fully support the option of a TE in the Flex position.

  • Again, guessing itā€™s 0.5PPR (a la turds last year) Iā€™m OK with this but would advocate raising rushing yards to .15p/yd (as opposed to the standard 0.1) This will help reduce the growing disparity between RBs and WRs. Most mocks now will have up to 8 or 9 WRs in the first round and RBā€™s are facing extinction. Iā€™d like to see the Segunda take a proactive step in preserving the lifespan of the RB.

  • Not sure if you can adjust this, but Iā€™d propose the draft moving away from the traditional snake draft to a third round reversal style draft whereby Round 3 is reversed from the original ā€œsnakeā€ draft order, so the person going last in Round 1 gets to go first in Rounds 2, 3 and 4. I believe this helps create a level playing field as the 1.01 spot is infinitely the best slot in typical snake drafts.

  • Waivers ā€“ We typically operate a system where priority is the inverse of the league standings. I believe this system rewards mediocrity. Iā€™d like to see a blind bid waiver system, where GMs submit ā€˜bidsā€™ for players from their franchiseā€™s allocated ā€˜pot of moneyā€™. This system rewards the strategists and the thinkers, while flummoxing the tankers. Bit of reading here https://www.fantasybowl.com/rtfm/?topic=blind-bidding

I believe if you take my proposals on board, the Segunda will go from strength to strength and adopt an even more cutthroat environment.

@count_of_monte_crist Iā€™d like to have parity between the Turds and The Segunda so can we be included in discussions regarding change?

The only above proposal I agree with is the flexibility position including TE.

RB isnā€™t deep enough to be on an equal positioning as WR and the waiver wire dies not reward mediocrity as much as keep the teams competitive.

Flesh this out a bit?

The disparity between WR and RB scoring in standard PPR format is increasing every year. PPR was introduced to help WRs catch up to RBs, but as the game is now more pass happy, running backs are criminally under-rewarded in fantasy scoring.

The fact it isnā€™t deep enough means there should be some form of premium scoring attributed to running backs.

Pick a RB who receives.

I donā€™t think early down backs who go for 80yds on 16 carries are rewarded fairly. Catching a couple dump passes and going on 30 yd run behind quality blocking garners the same points.

For every one RB that delivers good Fantasy Points there are 3/4 WRS.

Hence the added reward for rushing yards.

Please confirm that you are agreeing with my proposal to attribute a 50% higher points reward for rushing yards over receiving yards, before I give this post a Like.

Ah right coffee is kicking in now.

Whatā€™s the standard for PPR on NFL.com?
