Contract: The League

Post by bonesman » Sun Mar 28, 2010 10:30 am

or

Cap: The League
Salary: The League
Salary Cap: The League

Let's call a spade a spade eh? :2cents:


I'm pretty sure Braven sells MFL skins and if this is one of the demo/example sites I could see how he'd want to stick w/ the current title... it's not particularly accurate though, IMO.

I know it's been brought up before but I'll be honest in that I'd love to eliminate the contract cap all together and just let the salary cap take care of player turnover. It would be a bit more "dynasty" but still with some turnover. However I do like our format, but yea, it's not really a dynasty league in the true sense.

I keep kicking the idea of starting a true dynasty (with IDPs) that has no salaries or contracts and you can keep a player forever if you want. You have a rookie draft in the spring and a vet/free agent draft in the summer before the season. Roster size probably 50-60 (again, with IDPs) What stops me is that I just don't think I want to be in another league. :wall:

Personally I've always just referred to it as The League. It's the closest fantasy league I've found that compares to the way the NFL works.

Having a Contract Cap as well as a Salary Cap is what makes a league like this so challenging.. Not every tom dick and harry can play and succeed in a league like this. Contract cap adds to the strategy and makes it a lot more fun. I know I just got here but I would be against any change that takes away the Contract Cap.

Cool... something to think about eventually implementing when you've got some spare time.

Also, I know it's superficial and you've got tons of actual practical things to keep track of and update around here... but it'd be nice to get all the franchise pages up to date one of these days.

Though, I do get much amusement when I'm reminded that our defending champion and my archrival started his franchise w/ big hopes on the shoulders of their franchise player Lawrency Maroney :P I'd like to see that updated eventually.
