The league will consist of 17 weeks of the season. The regular season will be head to head for the first 14 weeks and the winner of that game will receive a win and the loser a loss.. At the end of the 14 weeks the top four (4) teams will go to the playoffs. This is determined by wins/losses.. If there is a tie it will be decided by the total points for the year after the 14th week.. Each week there will be one winner out of all 10 teams that will get the weekly prize... That will be determined by total points for that week.. In the case of a tie I will look at the Bench Points to break the tie.. See PLAYOFFS for what will happen at end of 14th week for non-playoff teams. For teams that will have players that play on a Thursday you will need to tell me who will play for you just for the Thursday game.. You do not have to give me your whole roster for that week, just the players that will start on Thursday.. The rest of your roster will be due at the usual time.. This same rule applies for Saturday games..

Rosters

Each team will have 2QB's, 4RB's, 4WR's, 1TE, 2K's, and 2DEF's for a total of 15... Each week you will only be allowed to play the following: 1QB, 2RB's, 3WR's or 2WR + 1TE, 1K, 1 DEF for a total of 8 players. After giving me your initial line up for week 1 it will be your responsibility to call me in the following weeks to make any changes.. (My Phone Number is (413) 782-8110, Email address is [email protected]) I will assume no changes unless you instruct me to do so... In other words if you have a player that is on your active roster and he has a bye this week, if you don't call me to take him off and replace him for that week he will be played and obviously you will get no points that week for him...

All roster additions are done on a first come first serve basis.. Players picked up before the first game of the week are eligible to play on your team that week.. Players picked up after the first game of the week has started will not be eligible for your line-up until the following week. This includes weeks where there is a Thursday Night or Saturday game.. This will also include IR transactions.. If someone on your team is injured you must make the decision to place him on IR before a game starts that week in order to get a replacement that will be eligible to play that week.. You will be allowed to take a player off IR and play him that week even if you did not do so before the first game of the week has been played.. We will use USA Today as our resource or the pre-game shows for players effected on the weekends. There will be no charge for any transactions before the season begins Sept. 9th.. (trading, adding, dropping, placing players on IR, reactivating, etc..) Each transaction after the season starts will be 1 point and will be added to the playoff pool. Adding a player and dropping another player will count as (2) transactions.. Putting a player on IR, picking up a replacement, reactivating him, then dropping one when he is off IR will count as (4) transactions.. In previous years it was 2 points for that entire TX, you were not charged for dropping or reactivating a player.. I have decreased the point amount but increased the situations that you are charged.. Overall it shouldn't effect people much but will increase the playoff pool a little more.. A trade is not official unless The Commissioner (ME) is told of it.. I have the right to VETO any trade I feel will be unfair to the rest of the league.. I doubt this will happen but it is in place to prevent people from stocking up one team from another one that has no chance 3/4 of the way thru the season.. NO TRADING IS ALLOWED AFTER WEEK 10.

Points

Points will be determined by the score sheet below.. Just some notes on that.. If you have a player that plays offense and defense you only get points based on offense.. i.e. If someone picks up Deion Sanders as a receiver he only gets points when on offense.. If he runs back a touchdown on a kick return or interception those points will go to whomever has that DEFENSE Not to who has Deion as a receiver...

Playoffs

The top 4 teams after week 14 will go to the playoffs.. The playoffs start in week 15. During the playoffs, teams that are not in the playoffs will still turn in a starting roster. I will continue to give the weekly prize for weeks 15,16 & 17. Only playoff teams will be head to head at this point. All other teams will just be going for total points for the week.. Teams that are in the playoffs will still be eligible to win the weekly prize for the week based on the total points they get.. The schedule for the playoffs will be 1st Place Vs 4th Place and 2nd Place Vs 3rd Place.. The winners of that will play the following week for the championship. The losers of that will tie for 3rd but still turn in a roster to be eligible for total points for the week.. Week 17 there will only be the usual weekly prize..
