    Well if they are only 10 points, then some think it's too far the other way (to me Fred Taylor shouldn't be worth 16.5 in that scenario).

    So it looks like we are going to settle on 15 for this. Too much disagreement, so we'll meet in the middle.
    Say it was Willie Parker instead of Fred Taylor.

    21 times in a game Willie Parker would have gotten his team 8 yards from scrimmage. That represents a uva a game!

    Meanwhile, Jerome wiped the mus from his chin and trotted out to field 5 times.

    I'm granting that scoring TDs is significant, but it's easier for the Steelers to replace Jerome's stats than it is Willie's. Willie would deserve a few more points in my book.

    Well if it's 15 in your scenario, then Bettis would get 12.33 points and Willie would get 11.

    And that seems about right.

    It's not my fault Willie can't get in the endzone.

    15 is the perfect amount. That's what I made in the league where I run the show.

    Thou shalt haf 15 points per yard, ye it back of running or a receiver de transmitter.

    And so it was said.

    A tricycle or a Landis bicycle with some extra testosterone on the side.

    Now Kori, Floyd Landis has throughly denied that accusation thoroughly after originally, and lawyer unpreparedly, vaguely answering questions in a radio press conference.

    He also has changed his reason why it could have happened instead of blaming the iron shavings from his kitchen sink that he leaned on when he was five.

    So, he is obviously innocent until proven more innocent. Let's just go have a drink of whiskey after the big Sunday softball game like our buddy Floyd Landis would do.

    oh ps

    If I were a GM I'd give more money to a player that could average 8 yards per rush.

    Well it's not up for debate.

    It's 15.

    End of story on that subject.

    Next point.

    It very simple, as yards mean less, TDs mean more ...

    Consider:

    Jerome Bettis has 3 rushes for 5 yards, and 2 TDs. That's 12.25 points by your suggestion.

    Say Fred Taylor has 21 carries for 165 yards without a touchdown. That's 8.25 points.

    In a fantasy sense, which player deserves more points?

    I think Bettis ought to get 12.5 points, while Taylor gets 16.5 points.

    i am re ed. thats not what i thought we were talking about...my bad. anyway....ummm, yeah i don't really have a problem with that thinking. except 10 yards is too many points...15 would be a nice comprimise.

    Just a little thought to keep everything smooth in case the FoxSports site doesn't work out for whatever reason:

    Kori's mentioned that she has a Yahoo league reserved in case we need it. Just so you all are aware, Yahoo allows people to be in up to 4 different fantasy football leagues. Make sure you do not utilize all 4 of your Yahoo spots until we know for sure that Fox will be O.K.

    If someone did use all of their spots though, they theoretically could create a new Yahoo account if there was a problem, so all would not be lost.

    Interesting. I didn't know that.

    I'm already in two, so I guess no more Yahoo! leagues until these are settled.

    If we should end up needing a league, I have a Sportsline one I set up that I'm not going to need after all. I can just give it to somebody to run and probably set up another team for me.

    I'm in a draft on FoxSports that starts in 17 minutes. So far the interface is very nice. Similar features to yahoo but looking nicer. Hopefully it works smoothly and we can just use it.

    I also wanted to mention that a roster of 20 is just to big!!Roster sizes of 15 is perfect because it makes waivers, trades, and the draft that much more important.

    Actually the draft is more important with a larger roster.
    If an owner is good enough to build via the draft the waiver wire & trades become less important. I've seen rampant trading & waiver pick-ups by owners that don't draft deep enough.

    ============

    Flex - Yes
    PPR - Yes

    Well FoxSports draft worked without any problems whatsoever. I guess as long as I don't have any problems with them in the next couple weeks, we will stick with them.

    I'd rather have passing TDs worth 4, INTs/fumbles worth -1 and no PPR.
