Not in the least bit. It's fair, everyone gets an even shake if you roll with week 18. 

No, because you're re-rolling the dice.   Players don't always perform the same each week.  

For example, Ekeler had a 37 point game this past weekend.  Do you think he is going to have another 37 point in week 18?...but apparently it's fair to re-roll the dice anyway even though his results are already in and were set to count.

I had JT go down on the first play of the game. You just live with it. If they play the game at some point, great. If not the season is over. I have not even looked at who is winner or losing, doesnt matter at this point. A player DIED on the field last night, not much else to say about it.

Think he is still in critical condition (not dead yet unless I missed something).  hopefully pulls through (not sure what his chances are).

Every sportsbook in the world is offering refunds... but fantasy thinks this matchup should count in a championship week? Crazy. 

That's a bit different.  I'm guessing those bets were just on that specific game.

There is no solution in fantasy that would please everyone (as seen in our debate).  I would guess they are trying to come up with options for leagues that have money involved.

Right. It was set, and circumstances changed that. 

I would be pissed if there wasn't a do over. 

And my point was you'll never please everyone but doing a do-over is just as unfair as what you are complaining about.

The choice to stick with week 17 is the most fair.  You'll never reach completely fair but a cancelled game is similar to having a player or players get injured.  An event that is unforeseen and out of the hands of the fantasy manager.  

1 out of 16 games got cancelled.   I don't agree that is enough to warrant a complete do-over even though I had a QB in that game.  It would be no different then had he gotten injured in that spot of the game.

How was it fair that Henry sat out this week? Or that Dhop did? 

"Had one game canceled" tf?.. lol you could have had 2 or 3 players playing last night..  EASILY... 

100% you will make it if you play it week 18. It's the same for everyone. Last week wasn't the same for everyone at all. 

Because week 17 was the set week for last round of playoffs.  

I am ahead currently and was predicted to have a big chance of staying ahead had they finished the game.   How is it fair to say scratch this week and lets have a do over?

I have no money on this obviously so not a big deal in my instance but I would be pissed if I did have money on it and someone said do over

Call it void. There's literally another week of games. 

And how is that fair if a fantasy manager has players that sit out for their real playoffs in week 18 just because the other fantasy manager had 1 game cancelled on them?

You won't get to something that is completely fair.

If I had money in this..  there's no way I could agree. 

How long do you wait for a game to be played before it would be agreeable to say that was it? (i don't think it will be made up).

It's not much different than betting on a horse and the horse going limp mid-race.  

Apparently yahoo needs to add a stipulation that says points are only scored for games played within that week.

Apparently it won't be played this week and unknown after that.

Yahoo should just consider it done for fantasy purposes (like both entire teams got hit with an injury at that point in the game).  

I doubt Bills nor Bengals will want to play a midweek game right before the playoffs start.

1 win away from being Number 2 (champ)

The winner of HSN #2 should have to use Number 2 as their avatar until the next champ is declared lol

Well that was a letdown.  On to next week

KDB is officially the most unlucky manager.

Btw, you're welcome everyone for keeping Jaybob within reach.

I have not seen anywhere that the motive was specifically related to the team.  Could have been an unrelated reason that just happened to involve the players.

 

Seems like a big coincidence with all the victims being players but who knows.

very sad story.

Seems fairly weird that he was last on the team in 2018, held a grudge about something for 4 years it would seem and then went on a shooting spree.

Looks like i have a good chance of giving jaybob his 2nd loss.

That's what she said.

Oops, guess I was beat to the punch

Outside of my backup QB (Carr), everyone on my bench is set to not play this week.

Made choosing starters really easy.    Walking the tight rope and hoping no more injuries.

The fact that my team is 1-6 blows my mind. LOL. I think it’s pretty loaded. Most points in the league scored against me doesn’t help any.

Need a better defense allowing too many points

Elsa knew how to let it go

I will try to take it easier on you guys so you don't lose hope

looks like this one won't end well for us.

I guess I will just suck in the HSN league again LOL. Scored 166 and lost.

A close one

Two comments.

1) Browns D had to be one of the favorites for early season streaming. Carolina, Jets, short week Steelers. Well they suck.

2) I need another month or so but this might be the first time in a decade where the strategy of not drafting RB's early finally backfires. So many WR's in the league anymore maybe it's wise to get RB's early again? Time will tell. 

Buddy brought it up last night and he knows I don't draft RB's early. I said yep...I got Dobbins, Mitchell, Edmonds in rounds 5 or later their just hurt or not being used. He countered with yep but I got Brown, Samuel,etc...in rounds 5 or later. No clue which is the best way.

I usually go rbs first because there are more viable options at wr.  Usually will be more wr in free agency too when someone does better than expected 

3 of the week 1 matchups were decided by less than 3 points.  And the team with the 2nd most points just happened to play the team that got the most points.   Crazy week 1.

Of course I lose by about 2 pts.  

I need to give my players a pep talk

PM me the correct list...send btown the fake list
