    In light of the longer season this year, I have rearranged the schedule for a 15 week regular season. The schedule is roughly as follows...

    Weeks 1-5 - All divisional games, you will play each team in your division once.

    Weeks 6 - 11 - Inter-divisional games - you will play all teams from the opposite division once.

    Weeks 12 - 15 - Back to divisional games for the last 4 weeks leading up to the playoffs.

    Playoffs are now weeks 16 and 17. Week 18 is the last week of the regular season and will be unused.

    Doodle poll now up for draft time. As always, the draft will take place the week before the reg seasons starts, so sometime between August 30 and September 05. We have two weeks to decide so no rush.

    Cheers fisgon.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Last chance to participate in poll to decide draft time, link above.

    The draft time needs to be decided tomorrow, as it is going to be next week.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Draft now set for this Wednesday at 9pm.



  • Registered Users Posts: 488 ✭✭darklighter


    Guys, if you aren't able to make the draft, can you please log in beforehand & set your profile to auto pick so we dont have to wait the full time period each time for your pick to be made



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    I'm actually gonna have to do that, stupidly booked a flight at that exact time. If you go to your team page you can actually set up autopick so that you can eliminate certain players you don't want to draft and even decide what position you want to draft in each round.



  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭In Exile


    I'm struggling to get into the app. Anyone have that issue on ESPN android app?

    Always look forward to this 6am start every year! Football season is starting



  • Registered Users Posts: 21 TimeOutguy


    Sorry I missed the draft chaps stuck in a meeting. Auto did me ok though so hopefully much better than last years outing as I was brutal haha

    Damn, missed it. Never got my notification.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,942 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    If you need wide receiver help and can offer a starting RB, then I'm interested. Foxboro legends is my team.

    Any of Julio Jones, DJ Chark, Odell Beckham and Jerry Jeudy available for the right offer



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,308 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    this is now my only boards league as I was off here for a while and dropped out of the big one

    still some start to my season. Ha



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,137 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    Open to any and all trades if people want to PM or send ones through ESPN



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,137 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    Ughhhh espn is being annoying won't let me add any players because laundry is on IR and played Thurs so looks like I have to play without 2 players for this game week......



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,308 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    You mean you can’t make any changes? Obviously the browns and broncos players are locked but are you sure it won’t let you drop other players for pick ups?



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,137 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    Yeah I have no TE or DST and when I try add I get this


    "No adds allowed until ineligible player in DL/IR slot is moved"


    I can't move Landry from IR to bench though, so frustrating never come across anything like this before!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,942 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Have you a full bench? You need room on your bench to move him.

    Second again for me! Waited until the final for my team to have their worst week all season. Ha

    Congrats to the Mud Dogs!

    Another enjoyable year



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,942 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Congrats Mud Dogs, hard luck Dodge.



  • Registered Users Posts: 488 ✭✭darklighter


    Are we going again this year folks?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,942 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Absolutely, best, most competitive league I've ever been in. I hope everybody's back.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,308 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    Yep. I’m back in. Might be my longest running league too



  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭In Exile


    Definitely. I'm in

  • Registered Users Posts: 21 TimeOutguy


    Defo in again. Thanks chaps



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Thanks guys. Sorry for late reactivation - bit distracted by other stuff.

    Anyway, league is now reactivated. Some have already posted here, if you haven't, please post here to confirm you want to continue this year. Last year we had a full 12 playing again, with no drop outs, which says a lot.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,137 ✭✭✭Onecoolcookie


    In again, of course!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,171 ✭✭✭Neamhshuntasach


    In again.



  • Registered Users Posts: 488 ✭✭darklighter


    Definitely back again!

    I noticed from another league that Masked Man hasn't logged onto the site since April so we might need a new member. I've sent him a pm as regards another league, that was a couple of days ago. Hopefully he logs on soon. I'd hate if we lost anybody from this league.

    Maybe whoever runs the league could send him an email?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Yeah, I have emailed him and PM-ed him, and really cannot wait any longer. He hasn't got in touch, and I have someone to replace him who PM-ed me about a place. Unfortunately I am going to have to replace him.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Poll now up for draft time.

    It is set up so you can manually enter a time that you are free. Please keep it to within the next week and a half - last day Sunday the 4th.

    https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/egLLnKra



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Draft now set

    This Wednesday, the 31st at 9pm. The choice of 8 out of 9 respondents.



  • Registered Users Posts: 21 TimeOutguy


    Chaps my apologies for missing the draftand sticking you with an auto. End up getting stuck in a meeting.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 90 ✭✭rogeyspoint


    👍️



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,942 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Yeah, same here, got stuck late at work too. Apologies lads.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,308 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    I don’t mind auto. Always works out quicker after the first round. We all have to miss a draft at some stage



  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭In Exile


    I'm 0-5! NEARLY won my first game this week. To think I was really happy with my draft at the time!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,308 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    I’m 1-4 but was under 90 points for the second week this week. Awful

  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭In Exile


    I won a game!! 1-9. Playoffs here I come



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,942 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I was checking up on your team because I played you when you were 0-3 and you were unlucky to meet me when you did. You had a big score that week but I had over 180 points.

    It's hard to believe that you went to 0-9 with that team.



  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭In Exile


    Part of me is kind of disappointed I didn't lose every game since I was actually trying to win games!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    Some record setting this week, potentially.

    I (pick sixes) am playing Spongey, he is leading 174 - 153, and I have Chris Godwin to come. I was leading by 120 points at one stage!

    We are in line to have the highest combined points scored in a matchup in the history of this league.

    Meanwhile, Chameleon is threatening to post the lowest score ever scored in one matchup....

    Interesting week :-) (Still totally sickened to be possibly losing this game while scoring 160+ points)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975


    I had checked the scores about half time in evening games and i was getting my ass kicked. Gave up, then got a notification next day saying i was leading. Stunned. Much needed win to keep me on track for playoffs



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,308 ✭✭✭✭Dodge


    It says something about this league that with 2 weeks left and only 4 play off spots, there’s 9 teams still in contention. Miracles needed for some but still so much parity (as there is every year)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,171 ✭✭✭Neamhshuntasach


    I got a mail from ESPN saying congrats on winning championship. But I thought they were going to wait until the NFL resolves whatever is happening based on their previous update.

    I was predicted to win with a 70 odd % chance. I think it could have been much closer. I was up by around 35 points with Allen left to play. While Spongeys bears had Burrow, Knox and Bass left to play.

    I think it could have come down to the wire depending on how the game went, granted Burrow and Knox would have needed big games and Allen kept it below 20. But looked like it could have potentially been a shootout. Anyways I'm happy to proceed whatever way makes the most sense and provide the fairest outcome.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,865 ✭✭✭Spongey1975



    I know its not an ideal way to end the final but you were well ahead. i had it worked out that i needed a dawson knox td, another 10 kicking points from Bass and Burrow to outscore Allen by 10. Not impossible but unlikely.

    This will play havoc in lots of leagues that had matchups closer than ours and with money at stake. NFL unlikely to play the game this week which is whats needed for fantasy purposes


    Congrats on the win, Glad to be back in playoffs after a few years of struggling



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,942 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    It was looking very likely that you'd win it. Congrats on winning the toughest league I know of.
