I just joined this league, and I assumed that it would be similar to the scoring and setup of most other Yahoo leagues. BIG MISTAKE. First of all, there are 16 teams, and the lineup is

QB
QB
QB
WR
WR
WR
WR
RB
RB
RB
K
DEF
DL
DL
BN

Yes you read that right. There are 3 starting QBs and 16 teams that's 48 spots with only 32 starting QBs. Automatically puts a premium on QBs and makes Trent Edwards or Brodie Croyle a better pick than LT or Randy Moss.


Then there's the scoring.


Completions (2)
Passing Yards (20 yards per point)
Passing Touchdowns (10)
Interceptions (-1)
Rushing Yards (10 yards per point)
Rushing Touchdowns (10)
Reception Yards (10 yards per point)
Reception Touchdowns (10)
Return Touchdowns (20)

So the QBs, who already have a huge premium get 2 points per completion while the receiver who catches the ball gets nothing. Then there's only -1 for an INT. So Kyle Boller could go 6-18 for 140 yards and 7 picks and score 12 points. LT could run for 120 yards without a TD and score......12 points. Talk about a retarded league.

I didn't have to pay to play thank god. I did convince the guy running it to scrap the league and start over with a modified system. Some people are pissed, of course they're the guys who managed to snag 3 starting QBs. Who wants to win a league via a retarded scoring system?


Funny stat that convinced the guy to scrap the league. Randy Moss scored 372 points under the system with the greatest statistical season in WR history.


Kyle Boller scored 482 under the same system. Shocked

I can't believe anyone would defend the stupidity of the league when a team consisting of LT, Addai, and AP at RB, Moss, TO, Wayne, and TJ at WR, the best DEF and K, Gates at TE, and only Big Ben at QB would lose to Peyton, Vince Young, and JT Osullivan with scrubs at every other position. Rolling Eyes


Sorry Rant over....
