Whatever's clever. I think we all decided no IDP. I'm cool with PPR or not - whatever everyone else wants. I recommend:
1 QB
2 RB
2 WR
1 Flex (RB/WR/TE)
1 TE
1 DST
If everyone wants a Kicker, that's fine with me, too. I'm flexible.
No more than 1 bench player for each starter (maybe only 7?).
Head-to-Head format?
Playoff Tiebreaker = Best Record, head-to-head record, total points?
We need to establish Keeper rules, too.
Low Score of the week has to change their avatar for the next week to Homer Simpson (D'oh!) or Betty Boop or something embarrassing.
Thoughts?

Wow. Thought this would fill up by now...
Hopefully this will fill up before 30 AUG. I am flying home for the birth of my son and won't be able to draft live after that date.

I can join up as long as the draft is on the 17th or later, that's when I'm getting back to CT and should be available for almost any draft time.

If we go 10 players, need to add a 3rd starting WR.

12 would be so much better than 10. That means we need 1 more, again assuming bengalfan is in...

No team defense? Is that intentional or just a mistake from copying an IDP league?
That's a lot of flex spots too. Not that I mind, just noting.

Hey Chica ... In the beggining of this thread, alot of guys in this league mentioned they wanted this league to go without IDP's to make it a bit different then the other leagues .. So this is a pure offense league .. but to add some spice to add, i added a few additional spots.
