Right now I'm offering a 2 for 1 special. Make any trade of a draft pick or player(s) for Michael Turner, get Donald Driver free! Offer restricted to qualifying offers. May not use with another coupon in the same visit. Order within the hour to receive a Ryan Grant free of charge. _________________

Yeah, we absolutely need to put something concrete in place. I would've hoped the honor system would've been enough, but obviously it wasn't.
We'll need to figure out exactly how to judge whether purposely taking a dive is happening (league vote, etc.), but if we conclude that it is, I don't care how harsh the punishment is. The problem we have to address, however, is, if the punishment involves draft picks, what happens to those picks if they were traded to another owner. _________________

Anyone interested in Randall Cobb, let me know. I'm obviously interested in a draft pick. _________________ Earn more sessions by sleeving. |

In my other dynasty league, we boot anyone who either 1. stops checking during the season and setting lineups or 2. tries to tank by setting a crappy to get a good pick. Works very well. After laying these ground rules down there hasn't been an issue (there had been before). _________________

Last year we never even talked about it so there was absolutely no guidelines for it. It's been brought to everyones attention this off season so everyone knows it's not ok to be doing that. If it's brought to my attention during the season that someone is tanking there season for a better pick, then i will take care of it then in a way that i see fit. Most likely, if you pull that crap, you will be out. Especially since its such a topic of discussion this off season. _________________

I still maintain that purposely dropping game is just against the obvious unwritten rules of fantasy. But whatever. While we're at it, do we really need to point out that collusion is also against the rules? Let's just get it out there. Collusion should also be a ban-able offense. _________________

So, in looking over my roster, I have a plethora of lower tier receivers. If anybody is looking to bolster their WR depth, please let me know. I'm interested in draft picks, running backs, tight ends, and maybe a quarterback. Some of the names available...
Mike Williams
Michael Crabtree
Denarius Moore
Doug Baldwin
Ben Obomanu
Jerome Simpson
Danny Amendola
David Gettis
Devery Henderson
These guys deserve spots on rosters, I just don't need all of them. _________________

I have an idea rolling around my head to try and make the league more independent from footballs future and much easier to keep track of stuff like a PS. Won't happen in time for the start of the season but long term, it should be pretty awesome _________________
