My team absolutely sucks and I'm not going anywhere anyway. I'm becoming a seller. If any of you want anyone on my team, send me an offer. I'll check it. I'm not going to accept an unbalanced trade though. That would be unfair to all of the other contenders.

I'm playing ESPN for the first time this year for the heck of it (this is only my second year of fantasy sports) and their default scoring is interesting. They have 10/25 increments for yardage points, and they only award the QB 4 for TD's thrown. That, to me, undervalues the QB performance, so the run on draft day was on RBs and WRs. They also have much lower point values for defensive performance.

I think a mix of the two would be ideal. Next year I think I'd like to be the commissioner of the league and customize the scoring to get the best of both worlds.
I can change the scoring modifiers to 10/25 and make it retro active if you guys want.

Kind of tough to change mid-season since everyone drafted and has made moves in accordance with the scoring system. I'm not sure if I'm for it or against it. Let me think about it. If we do it, it should be by unanimous decision, IMO.

That's kind of what I figured. We drafted our teams based on those parameters. BTW the transaction info shows me changing the modifiers then changing them back. I just wanted to see if I could do it mid season.

If we do it midseason, which I would probably be against, even though my 2-3 team isn't benefitting from it, I think it should have to be unanimous. But if we change it for next season, then maybe majority vote or 2/3 maybe.

I have to share this trade from a keeper league I'm in on another message board...

This guy has the 49ers defense and they're on a bye, so he's desperate for a defense this week, so the idiot gets suckered into this trade...

Joseph Addai, Ben Watson, the 49ers defense, and the guy's 3rd round pick in next years draft for...

*drumroll*

The Dallas Cowboys defense. That's it.

Has there been a more lopsided trade ever?

Holy smokes. That's insane. How deep is the league? Gotta figure some team on waivers would get you through the week.
