Considering what is left on waivers vs dropping a good QB that would get snapped up, I see giving that a try. There have been times a team has scored negative points with QBs, you sure want to avoid that.
The QB setting will screw me this week, but I clearly get why it's for the best. Changing the QB setting to four per team would upset the competitive balance in the league.

And too bad about Bill Cosby's Sleepers. The guy had the highest point total of any team in the league going into week six and he just quits. This is the major negative aspect of free leagues. No accountability because nothing is at stake. Not my mindset but definitely the mindset of many.

Nice post. People losing interest is the bane of FF.

I haven't quit. I've been paying attention. I left a spot open because I didn't want to drop anyone and yes 2 weeks in a row. I don't think this a big deal. Still putting up 195 points there boys.

FYI, I'm Jr.Hammer's dad ( his team is Bill Cosby sleepers). Not sure if he adjusted his roster or not for this week, but if he didn't it's not because he's ignoring it. He had to go in for an emergency surgery this morning. Not serious, but thought I'd let you know if you thinking he wasn't paying attention this week.

Just a heads up @FirebreathingMonkey , I will be starting only 1 QB this week. Hoyer and Smith are on bye and I don't feel comfortable starting the only real option on the waiver wire which is Johnny Butthole.

I'm sunk this week. Got Ryan on a bye, Ben out for a game with a injury and maybe Bridgewater out. What to do? If I drop one of these QBs, I'll never get them back. Mmm I think it's better to just lose this week then lose a good QB for the rest of the season. Not liking this 3 QB restriction at all.

Everyone else is good, weird that these two are also playing each other this week.

I faced the same dilemma two weeks ago, sucked it up, and took the loss.

10 teams in our league and only 32 starting QBs. This is why a team should not be allowed to carry four QBs. There would not be enough starting QBs to go around. A few teams would end up getting screwed with only two starting QBs. A competitive team in this league has to have three QBs (with the option to choose the best two for any given week) because the QB scores more points than the other positions.

Should be active by tomorrow, but something to keep an eye on. Can't see Romo not being active and ready to go. So happy Friday!!

1) have I given any reason to think I wouldn't update my team when needed.

2) The waivers make it so I have to wait til Saturday to do anything with my QB, so even if I have done anything to fix the situation you wouldn't know that. As it stands, dropping Bradford or Luck to pick up Bridgewater would be a mistake - and since I missed out on getting Roethlisberger earlier in the week I am kind've stuck.

3) Dexter McCluster was injured during his game on Thursday and scored 6.6 points, so even mentioning him on here is simply ludicrous. If you're going to call me out that a player isn't playing, maybe you should check to make sure that the player hasn't already played this week before doing so.

1. No you have not, but since week 2, I have always done a Friday/Sat reminder, except about two weeks ago when I was sick.

2. These are just reminders as I'm well aware life can easily make us forget with friends, lovers, work, school, ect. Thus a send them both Friday and Sat to make sure people have enough time to change and fix their rosters.

3. Yes you are 100% right I didn't realize he played Thursday , I'm sorry about that one, I was just looking at IR, byes and out, during my work break saw it and put it down. (Stop at Romo cause I thought that's weird thought he was playing this week, thus the comment)

These are just meant as reminder, its not to throw you and anyone else under the bus. Hopefully this clears up any confusion and later tonight I will once again send a reminder. Any other questions or concerns??
