Not sure if it was the same way last year, but can we turn waivers off until the season and just have period until then be FA?

I think it was that way last year because I remember trying to replace some bad $1 investments and it not costing any FAAB.

But I might also be thinking of another league.

Either way I think that�s a good idea lol.

It's not readily obvious to me how to do that in the league manager settings. Maybe I could switch it to waivers-based, and when the regular season starts switch it back to auction?

In my other ESPN league I commish, I just turn waivers off totally (making everyone FA) and then turn it back on Sunday of week 1.

Not sure if there is another way to do it though

If you are in the ale league and have a top QB to spare, I'd like to trade with you so send me an offer.

Sincerely,

I'm not certain anyone on our side of the fence has a decent backup worth trading unless you like Mayfield or Trubisky.

P.s. I want to be on the lager side - our division is so insanely tight.

Natty - Watson & Stafford
Roethlislager - Rodgers & Wentz
Dallas - Ryan & Trubs

At least 3 teams might have some interest.

Trade deadline is tomorrow it appears.

I'd still like a QB.

Jarvis Landry, Doug Martin, TY Hilton, & maybe LeSean McCoy are OTB if someone wants to send an offer.

Of course, two other 6-6 teams are playing each other while I�m trying to defend my sixth seed in the playoffs. And I�m getting my rear end handed to me.

rip in peace rapeleslager. He forcefully scored.

It ended up a lot closer and you had a chance. I figured I was waking up to a loss since I stopped watching game last night in 3rd and AB was going off.

Alfalfa: Apr 24, 2003; Superman Don't Need No Seat Belt

Looks like Natty Guice is taking home at least 1 box of beer for having highest score in the league back in week 10 with score of 177.6.

He also has the chance to grab another box playing in the 3rd place game this week.

Everyone should start building their boxes since the next month really flies by and they should be shipped out no later than Feb. 2nd.

Really enjoyed the season this year and looking forward to next!

Hope whoever gets my box likes Miller High Life and Red Dog. Because if I don�t end up with a single box after my tragedy last season and now everyone dying this season right at the end. It�s what you are getting :smug:

I cannot believe I made it this far. I'd figured I was a goner after Keenan went out and Alfalfa's Hopkins torched the Jets.

I'm in Mass but basically right next to Providence RI and most northeasterly breweries get distribution here. I tend to go for dark, malty and boozy beers and most German and Belgian styles are very much right up my alley. Things like bocks, stouts, quads, scotch ales and the like are extremely my jam, as the kids say, or so I've heard.

Already started buying beer for my box. Not sure if anyone's heard of this but there's a great place up in Boston called Sam... Adams I think?

Edit: Seeing the #1 and #2 seeds posting above, drat dudes, I fully expected it to be you guys. Those were great teams up until last week.

I�m an angry angry man as this league is the one of the few I care about.

Having you crush my dream by the way of Chris Carson and Damien Williams really, really, really hurts.

Only consolation I have is I didn�t really leave any points on the bench to second guess myself.

They just sucked rear end this week.

Congrats and I�m in Texas and looking forward to sending you a growler of Sam Adams to make it feel super special.

I'll turn in their toxx's so to speak, and I'd be happy to contribute as well to a compensatory package.

Any ideas for how we can fix this issue? It doesn't happen every year, but occasionally we do have people who don't send out the appropriate boxes and it's really frustrating.

The best idea I can think of is some sort of escrow type setup- everyone pays $50 up front, and it gets refunded when a box is received by the proper recipient. There appears to be apps for this kind of stuff, but I don't have any familiarity with them.

I like the $50 escrow idea.
