why only 4 playoff teams? I vote for 6.
trade deadline is fine with me
yep
and give the top 2 a bye week, maybe make the finals 2 weeks?

Because then over half the teams make the playoffs. At that point, the regular season hardly matters. Unless you are one of the 4 worst teams, it all comes down to just a few weeks.
Like real baseball, the regular season has to matter more because so few teams make the post-season.

I think that only the teams that do the best in the regular season should be allowed in. In a 12 man league should half of the league really get in? I don't think so, like mlb only the strongest of the strongest should be let in. Should the 6th seed whose probably hovering around .500 really be given the chance to get hot all of s udden and win the championship?
And I dont know how to make the final two weeks or I would.

I wish you could make it so that the first round is 1 week and the last round is two weeks.

You know what, I'm going to change playoffs back to a 6 team thing in weeks 23, 24 and 25. I don't want to disregard two weeks of games and I don't want to make it 23 regular season weeks either since that means that some teams would have to play one team three times a year which could cause some disadvantage to the team that has to play a better team than another of their competitiors, maybe pushing them out of the playoffs.
Since Yshoo doesn't allow for much tinkering and to make the final week 2 weeks I will just have to go with the lesser of two evils.

I would be very interested in this if it wasn't for the fact that I drafted Wieters and my rotation isn't very good as well.
well my team is the s**t. So you little pillow biters better watch out!

Solid squad overall except you're going to suck in steals and I think you're investing too much in last years stats and not projecting for the future.
I don't think you'll end up in the cellar like last year though.
