I guess there is a reason after all that you all pay me the big bucks to commish the league ha...

Here is my perspective:

@haroldjackson29 - I appreciate you weathering the storm of the injuries that you have had this year (god knows that I am going through the same crappy thing this season so I understand your pain). However, there is really no excuse to not set your team on a weekly basis. This past week, you had 5 players on BYE and 1 RB (Terrance West) that has scored 0 points for the past 3 weeks starting. That to me a sign of player that is paying basically no attention to his team. You had bench players that you can fill in the spots as well, maybe they won't blow anyone out of the water but you certainly don't see any other bottom ranked managers so called giving up on their teams.

You have had at least 1 player on bye and/or obviously hurt starting every week since the beginning of the season save for 2 or maybe 3 weeks. That again is a sign that a manager isn't paying the bare minimum attention to their team.

@RedAlice - I appreciate how passionate you are about our league but I think like Elvis said, both parties have said their pieces and there just isn't much more that can be accomplished by staying on this topic.

Harold, if you do truly want to be part of this league for this year and going forward, you have a few more weeks to show that you are still dedicated to managing your team. If not, you are more than welcome to let me know and I'll act accordingly.

Thanks everyone!

Agree. I know I can get over passionate.

[BuiltRamTough]

Elvis and I (and a couple others) are offended that you did not include the bottom barrel teams in your screenshot.

Lol. I have the small iPhone so that’s why it’s cropped out.

Or maybe I did it on purpose?

[RedAlice]

btw, f me being passionate - I'm right.

Below is last week, I am in first place. I am going to lose this week, as I have no QB. Altitude is going to win, and that is how the game goes. I did set up my best team tho, and he simply has the better team.

If you are going to play this game, play it every week. Win or lose.

Pretty sure it was unintentional, but I feel so special that you highlighted my team in your screenshot.

I guess this would also be the perfect time for me to give my two cents. I've had the unfortunate pleasure of being at or near the bottom of the standings both this year and last year, but that hasn't stopped me from still putting forth an effort to try and put out a competitive team each week. If anything, I think being toward the bottom motivates me to be more attentive to the waiver wire and put in more time to improve my team. But, that's just me.

Everyone views/prioritizes fantasy football differently. We have families, children, jobs, other commitments, etc. so I get that dedicating time to this may be difficult. If only we could all be as passionate as @RedAlice.

Let's move on and not let fantasy overshadow our commonality in all being Rams fans. We're 7-2 baby!!!

Ok.....there was no pain of mine you need to understand. It's a game. I don't need an excuse .I simply forgot. I already gave plenty examples of my switching out players.youre giving far too much adult,difficult importance to free time fun. I did my roster this past week for. I'm simply the Brown's this year lol not gonna,worry about it..and I did get one win

I appreciate you all waking the sleeping giant and bringing this to his attention the week before he plays me. Now he's locked in. Thanks guys!

Mark, we've all had to deal with injuries (albeit some more than others) so I sympathize with you there. I also realize you probably aren't as "dedicated" as other managers and that's fine also. We all have more going on in our lives than fantasy football, some just care more about it than others. Don't let it get to you.

Also, I'm not sure if you know since you said you mainly use the ESPN platform, but with Yahoo you can place David Johnson on "IR" and free up a roster spot to pick up another player.

[RedAlice]

Actually. The IR designation is created by the Commish in all formats.

It’s not integral, it has to be set up in advance.

The first 7 playoff teams are all but set.

But just when you thought the bottom feeding teams are done for and there is nothing for them to play for, there is now a chance for one of us to make into the playoffs!

Here are the possible scenarios for the 8th and last playoff spot:

- @KamikazeKid gets in if he beats Will0120 and @Rams the Legends live on loses to @Elvis (tiebreaker goes to Kamakaze based on total points scored)
- Will0120 gets in if he beats KamikazeKid and Rams the Legends live on loses to Elvis (Tie breaker likely goes to Will0120 based on total points scored, talk about a long shot sigh...)
- Rams the Legends lives on gets in if he wins against Elvis.

Alright Elvis, your name has been called on, beat Rams the Legends live on so Kamikaze and I have a chance to make this last week entertaining! No pressure right?

[Elvis]

Which is the scenario where i make the playoffs?

You cats are lucky i won't be making it, if there's one team nobody wants to play...
