Lol, if you are sensitive about steroid usage, you are watching the wrong sports....

As I don't have access to the programming, whether it is on ppv or free doesn't really matter much. However I am more stoked about this card than I have been for a long time.

do you want to gamble draft picks on ufc picks?

Say we put up one or two of our draft picks each and winner takes all?

Re: Draft order

I'm not a fan of anything other than #12-#1. How often is somebody actually going to tank? If you think somebody is actually tanking by not setting a lineup or not an optimal one (Like starting Sanchez over Brady), bring it up to the commish and we can deal with it then.

ya but this can be subtle stuff with a 20 man roster. If it's week 15 or whatever, and a loss gets you #1 overall and a win doesn't, I think a lot of people make a few close decisions go the other way. You can get away with a lot, like a "questionable" guy that is cleared to play 15 mins before the game, and you bench him. I'm not saying I would do it, but I'm saying there are people who would...

My concerns are not so much abour people tanking, as they are of adding a bit of fun and drama for the last 6 spots. I think it will add a bit of value to have a seperate playoff for the first pick.

I am expecting that you throw at least one game to me in a good spot when this pans out.

You wanna laugh? I already have. You're a lock to win our matchup in week 5. As I mentioned I engineered it so nobody would be available for me week 5, and you're my opponent. Looks like fate.

Although I agree it would add some fun for teams in the bottom half of the standings. I think our main concern is making sure teams don't quit. If you are the worst team and then you end up getting the 4th-6th pick a couple years in a row instead of the 1st pick and you see teams that are really pretty decent getting to pick players like Luck and RG3 with their first pick........ well good luck keeping them.

Exactly.

Not to mention, I feel like in a 12t league with half the league making the playoffs, there won't be many teams that are eliminated from playoffs contention until last 2-3 weeks. So even if somebody wanted to tank, they probably couldn't fall much.

I wouldn't mind some type of lottery or something depending on the %s.

Only 4 teams make the playoffs in our league. week 15-16 only.

I always find that tough as hell too. Being 5th suuuucks.

If you study the proposed model, you'll find that the worst team are guaranteed at least a 3/4th pick, so I don't fear we will lose players that way.

As I said, I don't think throwing games will be a problem. I am just out maximise my enjoyment of the game.

There's a trait inherently placed in a man's balls that's makes it hard for him to tank.

It looks like this.

How are they guaranteed that? If we do 7-12, 6-1 for the order, the possible worst team gets the 6th pick
