SNAIL Fantasy Football 2018-2019 Season

[Sean Renon]

Poor thrash

Especially some of the ways he lost.

 

[bigbeefytaco]

You all should go to the league home and see the draft day projections. Very funny.

 

[THRASH]

Let’s goooooo

 

[SAMHAIN85]

@THRASH gets his 1st win of the season!

With only 2 games left in our regular season and only 4 spots making playoffs, this should get interesting.

Its also worth noting the only possible players that can cash out the Bumble Ball ($25 amazon card) will be:
@SAMHAIN85
@bigbeefytaco
@stelephant
@Tecticles

Good luck down the home stretch everyone

 

[THRASH]

Damn McCaffrey is the only reason I lost my money league. Dammit

 

[JLBowler]

11-1, clinched the regular season title which awards a bye to the championship game. 151 pts. per game is on pace to set a league record. My only loss of the year was when our starting lineups tied and our bench points decided the game. I had 6 players on a bye that week so my bench was almost non-existent. Keep in mind that I've done this with Leveon Bell sitting on my bench all year (can't drop him because someone out of contention will pick him up and have him for zero dollars next year). It's been a good year and now I have three weeks before I have to play a meaningful game. Plenty of time to get AJ Green and Melvin Gordon healthy.

Thats quite a run Bowler. How much is up for grabs?

I see you're also using CBS. We have been using it in one of my auction leagues forever, but I think were ditching it for MFL next season. Personally I'm not a big fan of the CBS site.

I'm in 3 leagues total including this one.

$100 12-team Standard CBS Auction
$200 FAAB budget. All FAAB bids are real $ which gets added to the pool at the end of the season. Pot is currently at $2,800

I've had an up and down season. Up thanks to James Conner. No one drafted him and I bought him for $76 in Week 1.

In order to make playoffs I needed to win this week and have another team in playoff contention to lose. Both happened miraculously. I was up 64-56 heading into Monday night. My team was done and I was going up against Nuk. How I won is beyond me, but I'll take it. If I win next week I'll snag the 5 seed in playoffs.

$200 .5 PPR 12 teams
Ive been dominating the entire season, but my record doesnt really show it. I'll go high some weeks, but the guy Im against will have his game of the year.

Top scorer wins $75 weekly and I've hit it 4 times already. So I'm freerolling which is nice. But obviously looking for that #1 seed and the championship. This is only my 2nd year in this league, can't remember payouts exactly. I think 1st gets $800.

This is also the league I introduced bumble ball to. Everyone threw in an extra $10 for it, so itll cash out for $120 after next week. I lost it 2 weeks ago, and now it will be won by one of two teams out of playoff contention. Everyone is pretty pumped about it and it really keeps teams commited to a full season.

Hows everyone elses teams doing?

 

[JLBowler]

$100 a man to the prize pool and it's a 12 man league. We only pay five spots and have 5 playoff teams.

1. 500
2. 250
3. 200
4. 150
5. 100

I’m in a 20 team league with defensive players (the draft was awesome with 15sec pics). We’re only allowed 2 adds a week and 15 for the total season. I lost my first game last week but it came down to the wire on MNF with my Titans D against Thomas.

I drafted Mack as a DL but after the draft they changed him to a LB so that screwed me up big time.

 

[SAMHAIN85]

Wow. That is hardcore mode

 

[bigbeefytaco]

Wow. That is hardcore mode

I like to have one normal league and one insane league. Mix it up a bit.

 

[JLBowler]

That looks like the baseball league I've been in for over 20 years.

We have 23 active players and a 40 man roster. The only in season moves are a five round draft at the all-star break when you drop one and add one. On top of that, it's an auction with 15 keepers allowed per year. We currently sit at 16 teams but have been as high as 21. It's roto style with points on categories (5x5) so no head to head matchups.

That's a league that you have to do your homework. Every team has between 3 and 10 guys that haven't even seen a major league stadium yet stashed away to be used in the future.

Who has Hunter Greene?

 

[JLBowler]

Who has Hunter Greene?

The name of the team is Warning Track Power. Been owned since the 2017 all star break.

 

[bigbeefytaco]

Nick Senzel? Watched him smash the ball in Single A two summers ago.
Anyone with Tebow?

 

[SAMHAIN85]

Standings updated sorry it took so long. And I forgot that our playoffs dont actually start until Week 15 (since we are a 6 team league and 4 make it to playoffs)

So the only 4 that have a chance at cashing out the bumble ball are:
@SAMHAIN85
@stelephant
@Sean Renon
@Tecticles

 

[SAMHAIN85]

BUMBLE FUMBLE ALERT

@stelephant now possesses the ball

(stelephant you are my kryptonite this season)
​

This is the final week of the regular season, which means whoever has the bumbleball after this week cashes it out for $25 (stelephant is playing @Tecticles - good luck)

@Sean Renon and @bigbeefytaco are battling for that last playoff spot (#4)

If they both win their matchup, Sean will advance based on the tie-breaker of having a higher season point total. The only way beefytaco gets into the playoffs is if he wins his matchup and Sean loses. Good luck

 

[bigbeefytaco]

@THRASH ill buy you a pizza if you bench all your players.

 

[stelephant]

Fun battle right here

 

[THRASH]

@THRASH ill buy you a pizza if you bench all your players.

I was going to say you should be able to beat them anyway and you did lol. I forgot OBJ wasn’t playing

 

[bigbeefytaco]

With Melvin Gordon out I couldn’t take any chances.

 

[Sean Renon]

Yeah well I left my good players on the bench this week.

 

[SAMHAIN85]

@stelephant 's Hawks need to hold against @Tecticles and he'll be the final Bumble Ball owner

 

[SAMHAIN85]

@stelephant Mr Bumbleball winner - I just sent you a digital $25 Amazon card to the email address you signed up to the Survivor pool with. Let me know if you got it

 

[stelephant]

I did. Thanks.

On a separate note, stinks that I got wiped out of Survivor football. What a final week there!

 

[SAMHAIN85]

After 15 Weeks (14 for us) we've made it to Finals week. @stelephant is looking to be the big winner this season with a shot at $50. Hes already won the bumble ball for $25. Good luck Stele!

I am just thankful you put this fun group together. Can’t wait for next year. Hopefully we can flesh out the league a little more.

Should be a close one! Fun times.

 

[SAMHAIN85]

Yeah next year I'll get the ball rolling sooner and hopefully we can get 10-12 people signed up.

 

[SAMHAIN85]

After 16 hard fought weeks, @stelephant is crowned Champion in SNAIL's first ever

Fantasy Football League!

Not only did he win $25 for claiming the BumbleBall - he wins another $25 for winning the whole thing. The check is in the mail Stele! (check your email later)

You had my number all season Stele and you won when it mattered most. My hats off to you


Thanks everyone who participated. I've been wanting to do a fantasy league with you guys ever since I joined almost 3 years ago. And I was also happy to see Stelephant and @BradESPN both sign up for my survivor pool that I run. I will be running our annual Superbowl square pool at work that you guys are more than welcome to join. $20 a square $2k in the pot. PM me if you're interested.

Next year lets get this up to 10-12 teams with more dough on the line! Soon we'll begin the agonizing off season until August rolls back around. So check back here in about 8 months and I'll get the ball rolling again. Cheers guys

 

[bigbeefytaco]

How do you all have all this money you can afford to donate and bet on stuff oh my lord lol. I survive on ramen.

Also, why not try and do SNAIL fantasy for multiple sports? Baseballs in a few months.
