    Actually it was Drew Brees. There was that week where Ben Roethlisberger and Drew Brees threw for similar yardage and touchdowns but Roethlisberger did it on like 25 attempts and Brees did it on about 60... Brees also threw 4 picks but still outscored Big Ben that week. Made no sense that Big Ben could get the same yardage on fewer attempts and wind up with less fantasy points when high Y/A should be what gets rewarded, not sheer completions.

          As far as I can tell, they have been. Yahoo! scores seem to reflect the changes.

              Wait, you were going to change the sack penalty to zero and increase rushing TDs for QBs to 12 points, right? That's why I drafted Rodgers...

                  I've sent flash a PM. This draft does need to speed up to finish on time. Historically, this has happened every year. To make sure it happens, the BAPAY hammer will grow more and more impatient as time goes on.

                    Jag - why don't you do this?

                    Roll a d-20 every hour.

                    If a player has a critical failure, he gets an immediate BAPAY.

                    2-9, he loses an hour of BAPAY time. 10, nothing happens, 11-19, he gets an additional hour of bapay time. 20, he gets an additional day.

                        You don't think critical BAPAY failures are fun? I think it's hilarious.
