I liked my first offer 

Was going to re-post the MBBRL relegation rules, and realized they hinge on power rankings - W/L, PF, and breakdown - is anybody going to keep track of breakdown?
All right, here we go then (I'll post it on both boards). Tweaked it a little:
MBBRL Rules Revisited
Trades are always allowed (well, except draft pick trades).
- First, don't abandon your team
- Second, keep posting
- Third, no douchey plays (for example, if you're about to face AP who went down, picking up Gerhart on a waiver is legit - but if the team you're facing next week has Aaron Rodgers on a bye and the back-up Eli Manning just got hurt in a Thursday game, don't run to your computer first and do five add/drops to pick up all the QBs). We're all supposed to be good players beating each other straight-up. If you wonder about a move, ask.
Relegation
In normal circumstances, two teams will move up from the B league to the A league and two teams will move down from the A league to the B league. Teams moving down will be determined by power rankings. In the event of a tie, H2H will be the first tiebreaker, breakdown record will be the second tiebreaker, total points the third tiebreaker -- and if we still have a tie, whoever does better in a Fantasy Playoff Challenge to be determined.
The two teams moving up from the B League will go according to these criteria:
1. Champion
2. Regular season breakdown leader
3. Top seed
4. Regular season power rankings leader
5. Regular season points leader
If the B League champion meets all the other criteria, only a single team moves up (and only a single team moves down). Otherwise, the other B League team with the top-most criterion also moves up. (In the unlikely event of a tie, we'll again go to a Fantasy Playoff Challenge as the tiebreaker.)
To Spice Things Up
If in the regular season the B league outscores the A league by more than 168 FF points (one point per team per week), FOUR teams move instead of two. If that happens and the B League criteria above doesn't provide four teams, we'll use playoff seeding for the rest.
Also, the bottom two B League Teams are relegated out into Oblivion to make room for new blood - although at the beginning of the next season they can try to get nomination and support to get back in, on an even footing with everyone else who wants in.
It might work out for you and if it does, I think it's awesome, but there's no way I would have the stones to do that. What's funny about it though is I had absolutely no idea that 7 or your first 8 were running backs until I saw the final draft board and I'm not sure anybody else did either or there would have been something on the chat board. Took a lot of guts.
Well, we've one-upped the A-League on trades already. :rollseyes:
Chef gets:
Tony Romo
Bernard Pierce
Steelers gets:
Cam Newton
Rashad Jennings
It was the anesthesiologist who knocked him out, of course... and thanks.
Couldn't think of anyone better, Bandit! Loving your reads so far...
So, I'm looking at our draft as a whole and I don't see any weak teams...............sure it looks like we all have some issues but man the teams all look pretty solid to me...............
First free agent pick up in the A league. I just couldn't let the #2 WR in Chip Kelley's offense sit out there. Almost grabbed Cooper in the draft.
