DROPING/ADDING PLAYERS
You may find that you didn't draft well, or some of your players are injured. You Must stick with your drafted players the first regular season week. After the first week you may drop and add players to your 15 man roster as you like until the end of week 10. At the end of week ten a player must sit out an entire game to be droped from your roster.The next week he can be replaced. Replacements are given on a first come, first serve basis.Either Kenny G or Kenny T must be contacted by... speaking with them, leaving an answer machine message, or email. The voice or email message must have a time attached to it. If either of us need a player, we must contact the other. No special treatment will be given to either of us in these rules. There will be NO replacements after week 14, hurt or not. This is due to all the other players that would be availlable at this time. Also you may not drop a player once Gameday starts. Mostly this will be on Sunday of a week, however there are some Thursday games. Once the Gameday has started, you must wait till the end of the weeks games before you can drop a player again (almost always on Sunday or Monday night after the last game).
WEEKLY DUTIES
Each week your team will play against one of the other participants teams. Each week you will decide which of the players on your roster will start for your team. You will fill in the positions listed above and call the team owner you are playing against to tell him your lineup for that week. The line up must be called in before the start of the weeks first games. All phone #s will be provided and will be posted on the site under Team Owners.If, and only if, you can not reach your opponent before the start time, you may call either Kenny G, or Kenny T to give your starters list. If you only get an answering machine, leave a full message of your starters. As a last resort, you may call another Team Owner just so someone can verify your starters. IF YOU DO NOT CALL IN A STARTING LINEUP, YOU HAVE FORFEIT THE WEEK!!
Also make sure that you keep the score for both your team, and your opponents team. After all starters have played and you and your opponent have a final score, call either Kenny G or Kenny T to tell if you won, your team had a higher score than your opponents, or you lost,your team had a lower score than your opponent.At which time we will update everones Rankings.
THERE WILL BE NO TIES. Any ties will be decided by the kicker score. If there is still a tie on kickers, then the winner for the week will be the one whos team had the most TD's.
KEEPING SCORE
Weekly scores will be the responsibility of you and your opponent. All info that we score on will be in the daily paper. Do not ask Kenny G or Kenny T to check scores for you. We each have our own teams and opponents to keep up with. We will help you if asked, and will help settle any disputes.
The scoring is as follows:
Quarterbacks 1 point for every 25 TOTALyards
6 points for a touchdown(either caught, thrown, or ran)
2 points for a conversion
2 bonus points for a 300+ TOTAL yards(no extra bonus for a 600+ game)
2 point deduction for each interception
ex/ Bret Favre throws for 286yds rushes for 20yds throws 1 int and 2 tds.

THE PLAYOFFS
The regular season for our fantasy football league will last for 14 weeks. At the conclusion of the 14 weeks, the top 2 records in each league( AFC NFC) will begin the playoffs. Again, if there is a tie in the records, the team whos kicker has scored the most points for the season will be chosen for the playoffs. Week 15 will end with an AFC champ and a NFC champ. Week 16 will be the fantasy football superbowl with the winner of that game taking home the largest portion of money and everyones respect. We do not play week 17 due to many NFL teams resting some of there best players. If all of the 12 owners expected to play do play, we will play for $30 a person. This is $360. Split as follows, $30 for the winner of the losers bracket, $60 for the super bowl looser, and a wooping $270 for our league champion.
Even if your record is 0 wins 7 losses (or whatever), do your very best to choose the best team, drop the hurt players, and win every week. By giving up and letting your team ride because you know you cannot make the playoffs, you allow people who do not deserve a win get one. This also allows people to chose better players than they could have if you would have picked them up instead. Basically if you want to play Fantasy Football, play it as if you were really a team owner. Every game counts. Every win or lose impacts every team owner. respect everyone elses team , if not your own.
