I think it's retarded that BJ is trading away top tier players for crap and wanted to express my annoyance by hitting deny, didnt think it would actually get vetoed.

And yeah, the waiver wires are crap. If you actually watch the games, see whos doing good, research before games, all of that, you shouldnt have to wait 5 days so that someone else can come on and see that a lot of people are adding a player and they get them and you dont.
yeah you actually should. thats the way that 90% of leagues are run especially higher up leagues, all of them run a waiver period. the guy that works on sundays should suffer because there is a guy who sits and watches the redzone channel all day long sucking up any player immediately?

Most leagues lock player additions until after early early on Tuesday morning (at least that I have been involved in), that way owners can't just suck up a player as soon as their game is over. not to mention, just because a guy on the wire did well one week doesn't guarantee he repeats that performance the next. that can't miss guy they talk about on sunday morning (when you should be paying attention in church) could lay an egg the week you pick him up so it does add a small element of strategery (sic) to decide who to pick up or if you'll stand pat with your lineup

the waiver period needs to stay on..players should be free to pick up after tuesday or wednesday morning.. to have it set where those who are able to watch games on sundays and pick up players is just ridiculous...the waiver wire is there to protect people who dont have as much time to watch football on sundays.

On the flip side, if one of your starters is declared out on Sunday morning, shouldn't you be able to pick up somebody at that position to fill a last minute hole? I can understand shutting things down from 1pm ET Sunday through Midnight Tuesday.

I'm not worried so much about the waiver policy. I'm more concerned about having David Wilson on my team. :doh And I kinda wish I had lost that bidding war with Sly for Montee Ball. :lol:

waivers go on after that players game starts. the waiver period is over after tues and then regular free agent pickups start until once again, that players game starts.

This Week in FF.com A-League

Well even with all the talk of dibs and questionable trades and league contraction, the 2013 NFL season kicked off last Thursday and with it the 2013 A-League. Here are this week's results:

Liberty Flames 126.28
Ed Hindson's Toupee 101.02

After getting down by as many as 30 points on Sunday, a solid performance from Josh Brown and a pair of bigtime performances from DeSean Jackson and LeSean McCoy springboarded the 2012 league runner-up to a come from behind victory over the league newcomer. NG33 did get outstanding performances from Tom Brady (16.12 points) Mike Williams (11.20 points), Demarco Murray ( 12.50 points) and Anquan Boldin (26.80 points) in the defeat.

Johnny U 84.26
MicahK's Team 116.60

RubberMallet got a huge boost on Sunday night from the Eli Manning-Victor Cruz combo, with the two combining for over 60 fantasy points on the way to the victory. Steven Jackson and Jamaal Charles more than made up for the uncharacteristic lack of "beast mode" from Marshawn Lynch (5.20 points vs. Carolina) combining for 28.20 fantasy points. 2011 Champion LUminary got big days from Matt Ryan (20.36 points), Ryan's favorite target Julio Jones (11.36 points), Owen Daniels (18.70 points) and the Miami Dolphins defense (16 points) in a losing effort

Better Call Saul 78.78
Sly's Flying Foxes 125.38

After an opening night shootout between the opposing QBs (46.28 for Peyton Manning, 20.48 for Joe Flacco), Sly had the better weekend and flew all the way to the third highest point total in the league for the week. Buoyed by a bigtime advantage at the WR position, Sly kept on the gas and easily won as Rueful got underachieving performances from Calvin Johnson (3.70 points) and Kenbrell Thompkins (4.20 points) plus a shutout from Zach Sudfeld at the TE position.

Gill's Gophers 115.22
CHampion LUConn 114.28

In the tightest matchup of the week, TDDance234 got a bigtime performance from Michael Vick to knock off defending champ LUConn. Vick's 25.52 points combined with Pierre Garcon only coming up with 6.40 on Monday Night Football helped overcome a huge week that saw LUConn get double digit points from 7 of 9 positions on the board including 21.48 points from Matthew Stafford, a 5,000 yard passer a year ago.

My Vick In A Box 92.20
FBS Or Bust 144.42

In a rematch of teams from the 2012 B-League, Class of 09 got 20+ point performances form 4 players, led by Aaron Rodgers (25.62 points) and "All Day" Adrian Peterson (29.10 points despite only 93 rushing yards) to post the highest score of the week in the league.

This Week's Matchups

Liberty Flames vs. Johnny U
Ed Hindson's Toupee vs. FBS Or Bust
Better Call Saul vs. MicahK's Team
Gill's Gophers vs. Sly's Flying Foxes
My Vick In A Box vs. Champion LUConn

I had a monster day from Jackson and McCoy again, as well as Janikowski and the Seahawks defense. Looks like the defending champ is on the ropes early at 0-2

So last week I play the guy that puts up 136 points. This week the guy that goes for 157. Combined with the fact my team isn't great to begin with, it's shaping up to be a really long season.

I've been in the top of the league since the first season, this is the worst I've ever done and its terrible. Im convinced I can pull a few more wins out and stay in A league.

Same here, but I'm about convinced I can't pull out a few more wins. But I like a challenge. The relegation twist adds something to play for if you're having a stink season.
