Updated Defense and Kickers mainly. I really think we should have 1/2 point per reception too. I know some argue you shouldn't reward a receiver for catching a pass behind the line of scrimmage, but they did their job in catching it and that really should count for something. Besides, if they lose yards, they are already penalized, why double dip?

Here's the scoring at this point.

Take out the Team Defense as an option, and draft individual defensive players instead.

In all the leagues I ran I transitioned them from team defenses to IDP's. Not a single person in those leagues had ever played it that way before, and everyone loved it.

The way it is done in my leagues:

1. Remove Team Defense
2. Add 1 LB position
3. Add 1 DB position (safety or cb)
4. Add 1 DL Position (dt or de)

I also removed kickers from all of my leagues, because I fucking hate them.

Once your league gets more experienced with using IDPs you can expand to more than 1 at each defensive position, but I would start with 1 each.

Then the scoring double counts points for a team if the player gets a sack and they have that defense. I suppose it would be fine if it was one way or the other though. But if I had to choose, I'd chose DST every time.

And removing kickers is silly too.

I just wanted to pop in and remind people about the FleaFlicker draft room. Things may have changed this year, but I remember last year I could only see 10-12 players at a time in the draft window. If you're brave and know how to use the Inspect tool in your browser you can modify the CSS to show more players. I'd be happy to help with instructions on this.

I've included a screenshot of what my window looked like after I made the modifications last year. Cheers!

If you watch the draft, you know people just doing whack-a-player for their selections so the fewer they see, the gooder for them. 😉

dfosterf (15h) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (15h) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (16h) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (16h) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (16h) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (16h) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (16h) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (16h) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (17h) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (17h) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (17h) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (17h) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (17h) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (20h) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (20h) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (21h) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : NFLPA report said Packers lockerroom needed upgrade. Whining bout where you change?
