The good news for you streakers: week 5 is the first big payoff week for y’all!
I don’t have graphics for all the new team names yet, but I’m working on it.
Without further delay: FAABulous prize$ for the Liga in week 5.
This is a reworked version of last year’s post about the goodbye bonus awards and the fibonacci streaker bonus. Everything should be updated to reflect the Liga 2011.
Goodbyes are never easy.
That truism extends to the realm of fantasy football. Weeks 5-11 of the NFL season pepper fantasy rosters with frustrating “byes,” leaving fantasy managers with holes to fill on an almost weekly basis. Nowhere is the sting of a bye week more sharply felt than in the Liga Guadalupe. With only one bench spot to stash that star player on a bye week, we are often left with an agonising choice: (1) drop some bigger-name players on their bye week and hope to pick them up again off waivers or (2) start a less-than-full roster.
To help counter the temptation to stockpile talent through bye weeks, I began offering huge [FAAB] cash prizes to teams who started a full roster. The rewards got even richer for those who kept a full-roster streak going. It was a beautifully complicated system, but ultimately wasn’t enough incentive for a few managers. With the new scoring system in 2011, empty roster spots will put teams at a serious disadvantage. Nevertheless, I decided to up the stakes again for the goodbye bonus awards.
Here’s how it works . . .
Goodbyes are never easy.
That truism extends to the realm of fantasy football. Weeks 4-10 of the NFL season pepper fantasy rosters with frustrating “byes,” leaving fantasy managers with holes to fill on an almost weekly basis. Nowhere is the sting of a bye week more sharply felt than in the Liga Guadalupe. With only one bench spot to stash that star player on a bye week, we are often left with an agonising choice: (1) drop some bigger-name players on their bye week and hope to pick them up again off waivers or (2) start a less-than-full roster.
To help counter the temptation to stockpile talent through bye weeks, I began offering increased weekly bonuses to teams who start a full roster during weeks 4-10. This year, the stakes are even higher.
