Cy - I 100% agree
kicker and defenses are dumb
we can try and put to a vote before draft if others like it. Just was t sure if too late if others didn’t agree

Well considering we didn't vote on the other changes I don't know why we couldn't look at this. Personally I think defenses and kickers are dumb too.

Cool. Commish change
1 - if you really love kickers and defense. Chime in now.
if not I am removing and adding a flex (not a superflex)

totally fine with getting rid of K and Def

I don't want super flex w 2 QBs

flex spot allowing for WR, RB and TE good add

I’m with the majority.

no need for kickers of defense.

a flex spot is okay but not a superflex. Keep it just 1 QB

So are we changing to 15 rounds instead of 16? since we are dropping K and D, and adding flex? Or we keep it at 16 for another bench spot?

I'm totally opposed to eliminating K's and D's, what the fuck is going on here at this late moment

I'm at a loss for words, seriously

I didn't mind a tweak, I'm not interested in creating a whole new game

But, I don't want to stand in the way of something the rest of you want, so I'll bow out gracefully and even help recruit my replacement

No problem, seriously

Well, no.

seniority should have a place here Willie.

I say we keep it the same then. If one person is opposed that’s still enough for me to decide against a change as it’s too close to kick off for serious changes unless everyone is on board.

We can keep the same.
I was just saying if everyone agreed and secretly hated kickers and defenses but wasn’t saying anything that we could remove them.
kickers and defenses are staying then
that’s why I told people to chime in :)

i am with Willie on this one only because it is last minute. I too do not like K and D but there were months and months that went by where we could make these changes that would be drastic to what we have been doing. Adding PPR and roster spots was only to protect us from the unknown. Eliminate K and D changes we can discuss in summertime not a week before we draft.

We changed to a PPR after having been standard every year 2 days ago with little discussion or a vote. It's not like we've been discussing that all summer.

.5 ppr is a smaller change than eliminating positions.
I also mentioned if anyone was against it strongly - we wouldn’t do it and would remain standard.

We can hold off on any other changes until next year.
this year we had to replace 4 people so that’s enough of a change and I was gone for an extended period of time and wasn’t even sure if I was going to be in this year.

so can leave as is and move forward.

Doesn't matter to me. I'm not going to cause waves. PPR is fine. I should have brought up getting rid of defenses and kickers earlier but to tell you the truth I didn't think we were going to get this going when people were dropping out. It came together in a hurry.

You should put out a survey, the league should vote, but needs 8 votes to pass.

Things that should be on there:

1. 0.5 point PPR
2. Expansion of rosters
3. Removal of kicker and defense

Anything else that 2 members believe should happen. This way, everyone has their say, and it takes a real majority to make a change.

Just a heads up....as joining this league I believe this is my 4th year. We have not had any turnover that I recall as well as any rule changes. 1 and 2 were only brought up due to the fact of it being Covid (if not for Covid 1. and 2. most likely do not take place) and now there could be player boycott concern. The expansion of rosters makes sense on multiple levels, the PPR was just to make up any small difference that could help in case of players missing not due to injury. Radically changing the game from removing of kickers and defense this late in the game is not something that should be considered. Now next year yes....as I recommend that moving forward we visit any roster or rule changes the first of August or maybe the start of training camp in middle of July and vote on any changes the first week of August.

Also of note, not all of our league members frequently visit the site or this thread to be able to chime in. Believe at least two or three rarely peak in on the thread.

Team defenses and kickers will come under the same scrutiny if a team is deemed unplayable shortly before a game. Then we are dropping and adding defenses and kickers at last minute. I don't think we're going to want to carry 2 defenses and 2 kickers. Everything is f....ed up this year because of the uncertainty of Covid.
