If you have a suggestion for different scoring/roster rules, fire away.

I think there were complaints about how late the playoffs were, so let me know if you'd prefer something else.

Good for me.

I may be on call or playing golf, if so just auto draft me.

O/W I'll try to join for the smack talk if nothing else.

lol.  I think I did it right:
Roster Positions:      QB, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, W/R/T, K, DEF, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN

But then again I thought I did it right last year.  So I'd give it 50/50 odds.

I said this during the draft, but it's interesting how different our draft was with only 10 teams.

With 12 teams, I'd find it hard to pick toward the end and just looked at rookies for possible upside, but there were so many good players still available this year.

QB was very interesting this time.  I completely screwed up.  I'd been looking at Megatron and Greg Jennings with my 2nd and 3rd picks, but gleek grabbed Megatron right before me, so I panicked and grabbed Romo without even realizing that Brady was still available. (stupid back-to-back picks)

Then for backup QB, I had a few guys in mind (Cassel, Henne, Sanchez), but none of them got snatched up so I ended up skipping a backup.

The waiver wire should be huge this year with lots of quality players still there.

LaDainian Tomlinson and Jeremy Maclin killed you putting up big fat zeroes.  LT was a late scratch, but in hindsight not that surprising since the Jets didn't have much to play for.  I'm surprised Yahoo projected 11.67 points for him.

Yeah, I had been checking the player reports to see who was going to play. Clearly I didn't check close enough to game time.
On another note your US$40 I think now works out to be around AU$27  ;)
