| I feel the playoffs (with 6 teams) should start week #14. Week #14 - Rat tail games Week #15 - Semi-finals Week #16 - Finals Too many NFL teams sit their best players week #17 if they have their playoff births in hand. It's unfair to go a whole season with your best players then have to play play backups the last week. |

| Sorry, I have to disagree, that is a part of FFL and always has been, something teams need to think about towards the end of the season. And since I think waivvers will be be open during the payoffs this year (like last year) you have a chance to replace players who are sitting. Also, while I am not in a postion to win anything this year, that final week of regular season FFL games could determine some division championships or penalize teams that are on a roll at the end of the season. Anyway, thats just my opinion! |

| a.) I don't like starting playoffs this early, defiantely not my choice but will live with it I guess... when did this come up for a vote? b.) are the playoff brackets for the toilet bowl division correct, I am 6th in waiver wire order which I think should make my team #1 seed for the toilet bowl playoffs (with a very outside chance to make the money playoffs if the season had gone a full 14 game schedule), however I'm not sure that the waiver wire order and playoff seeding is determined the same way. It doesn't make a whole lot of difference, the TB championship isn't a big deal and I know Larry and Ray do a great job of running things here (a thankless job I'm sure) so I'm pretty sure what is listed is correct, I just thought I'd check. Never mind, I found the difference in determining the standings... it helps if I, you know, actually read the by-laws!!! And as always Larry and Ray are absolutly correct. Which is Ok because I never liked having a bye week. BUT I still would rather play a 14 game regular season schedule. |

| The problem has been playing the Superbowl week 17 when a lot of players are rested. With 6 teams in (2 byes)you have to start now. |

| yes I know some players are rested in week 17... that is just one of the challenges of FFL. And with waivers open during the playoffs to help replace sitting players, that could be mitigated somewhat. In addition, I didn't think it was possible, but there was actually a chance I could have snuck into the championship bracket with another win, that possibility has been closed by the shorter season. It may not have happened anyway, everything would have had to work out just right, but I would have liked to have the chance anyway. So I will settle for defending my toilet bowl title, not happy about it, but will defend to the best of my ability.

| My point about the regular season ending a week early was made quite well by this week's results.

| John You are I are the high scorers so far. It's obvious once again the Toilet Bowl is the most sought after title here.

| If we meet in the title game it ought to be interesting, both teams are on an "end of the season" roll! |

Yeah we both stunk in the regular season but are now on a roll.

| Yep I think I went 0-8 then got on a roll. Due primarily to my uncanny ability to start players who were going to have their worst game of the season, and I perfected that skill week after week! Thank God for Brees, the only consistant bright spot on my team all season. |

Commissioner:> Yes we will start week 14. The playoff brackets don't appear to reflect this... |

| You're right. Fixed. No trades allowed anymore but waivers will be through the end of season. |
