Agnostic of whether or not Crow ran the score up, I think it might be an interesting twist if when someone gets a player suspended, they sit a player of their opponent's choosing each week.

So if someone gets a four game suspension, their next four opponents pick who sits in their game.

Thoughts? I think it stings more if your bros/foes are picking who you sit than if FMT, CB and I pick someone

JOHNNY KNOX HAS BEEN PUT INTO FREE AGENCY.

DO NOT SIGN JOHNNY KNOX.

IF JOHNNY KNOX IS STILL IN THE FREE AGENT POOL TOMORROW @ 8PM PST THEN ANYONE CAN SIGN HIM AND BOB CAN GO EAT A BAG OF DICKS.

In other news, Champ Bailey of the Denver Broncos has been suspended for 4 games due to violating the leagues scoring abuse policy.

The suspension will start in week 10. Champ is eligible to return to the lineup in week 14 against the Oakland Raiders.

AFC Playoffs
Byes:
Raiders +191 PD TO: +19
Bills +109 PD TO: +11

Round 1:
Texans +171 PD TO: +17
Broncos +90 PD TO: +17
Stealers +64 PD TO: +3
Bengals +27 PD TO: -6
(The Colts are on the cusp and have a +100 PD, the Dolphins are -5 making them the only other team close to a positive differential)

NFC Playoffs
Byes:
Bears +106 PD TO: +27
Saints +107 PD TO: +15

Round 1
49ers +230 PD TO: +29
Eagles +112 PD TO: +17
Giants +87 PD TO: 0
Rams +38 PD TO: +4
(After the Rams the Vikings are the only other NFC team with a positive point differential, although the Seahawks are only -4)

# of teams with sub .500 record and positive turnovers: 1 (Chiefs)
# of teams with negative turnover ratio and winning record: 2 (Bengals, Lions)

The lesson here should be obvious.

You know what's sad about the playoffs list? The only difference in it from last year is that Wellie and Splat swapped leagues.

Levious, do you know if anyone gets to actually play the pro-bowl? If I got the chance I'd do everything in my power to hurt Gore and Willis.

levious

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.
don't think so wellie, if they let the two conf champ loser coaches play that would people be willing? I doubt the super bowl teams would wait for that extra game anyway.

We'll see about tonight dcx, but if not I can play as late as you need on friday.

No chance I make the playoffs. Look at my second half schedule:

FMT
Ferny
Cola
FMT
LJ
Sokanish
DM
Bluemax

I'd have to win all of Ferny, Cola, Soka, Bluemax, and then hope to steal one of the FMT, LJ, DM games. That shit ain't happening, I know I'm dropping one of the first set of games for sure.

If I had one more win in the first half I'd be confident, but the losses to Trasher, Pheeniks, and Bob are chapping me, mostly since it was due to interceptions. The bullshit loss to bob was the worst since his AI just kept cheating. 6 turnovers, a -5 differential, and I lost by only 13 points. Bob is such a fraud.

Yeah, in a league that has been going on for like 5 iterations of OOTP. I just joined last season (and lost in the NLCS) so this is my first full offseason, so rad! The upcoming year will be 2021.

All FA is done on a separate message board.

Rules for FA:

Free Agents:

The NCBL uses an Open Forum Bidding System. We do NOT use the free agent system built inside OOTP for top shelf free agents.

*The start of the Free Agent Period will be announced by the commish via email. The FA period will run until all players with bids are signed.

*In the Free Agent Bidding Forum owners must place a bid of “intent” within the first 48 hours of the FA period or you will be ineligible to submit bids for said player. If you are counter bidding, your bid must be at least 10% greater in overall value that the previous bid as well as being equal to or greater than the yearly contract value.

Example: If an owner offers 1 year 600K to a player: valid counters would be: 1 year 660K; 2 years 1.2 million (total value); 3 years 1.8 million; 4 years 2.4 million; 5 years 3 million

*During the first 48 hours (intent period), 24 hours after a valid bid is posted is the deadline at which bidding is closed on said player. (ie. if no one counters in a day's time, he's yours). After each bid is made the clock starts again. No eBay Auction Sniping bids will work. Every bid extends the time period another 24 hours. (or 12 see below)

*24 hours after the "intent" period, (hour 49+) 12 hours after a valid bid will become the deadline at which bidding is closed on said player. (ie: 3 days into the FA Period, if no bids are made on a player in 12 hours, he's yours)

*ALL teams, whether opening or not, may post a maximum of 5 bids (PER PLAYER) when bidding on free agent players. This does not includeteam matching offers (see below)

*Contracts for FAs are 5 year maximum

*Team Options offered to free agents during the open forum bidding process will NOT COUNT toward the total value of the contract when determining who has the leading bid for said player.

*Free agents not offered a contract during the Free Agent period may be offered a contract in-game as normal after the Free Agent Period ends and a new file is available (this includes minor league FAs)

*FAs will sign with the team that offers them the highest total dollar amount.

*Offers must be at least 600K for players with 3+ years of service time and 400K for those with 0 to 3 years of service time.

*Minor league contracts are not allowed during the open bidding time.

*The team who is losing the player to FA may make a matching offer on the player. The matching offer is considered the "high" bid for that player and unlike regular bids, matching offers are unlimited and not maxed at 5 bids per player. Since we have no draft pick compensation this is a way for players to keep players on their team if they can afford it and wish to pay the highest bid amount. Teams may continue to push the bids higher, forcing the original team to continue to match the offer, but basically, if the old team has the money and REALLY wants a player regardless of price, they can do it.

Wow.

SJax only has 96 carry, I may have to go crazy in practice so that he can get to 99 before my game with FMT. Hopefully that means only 2 fumbles.
