I, for one, am mighty happy with the monster League of 16 teams.

Really has put teams closer together as everyone picks the scrap off the waiver wire.

What does everyone else think?

[Joemailman]

Not a fan. 12 is the max for me.

[pbmax]

Not a fan. 12 is the max for me.

Reason? What do you get with 12 you aren't getting with 16?

[Rutnstrut]

My biggest complaint is not being able to use a QB in the flex position.

[pbmax]

I’d like 2 QB as well. But I like the overall play of the big league.

Maybe we go 14 next year and put SuperFlex back in

[pbmax]

Squeaked by Joe with Chris Carson getting me the crucial last 1.8 points in the fourth quarter on the Seahawks second to last possession.

That is what its all about.

There is good and bad in 16 teams. Not much on the waiver wire for QB, RB, TE.

Might have been down to using Taysom Hill as starting QB but got Fitzmagic for a game or 2.

I think there's a need to watch your roster more closely. Shakier Smithsons started out hot but are falling back now.

Just like NFL we have parity (or parody, or both).

[Freak Out]

Ugh.

[pbmax]

Definitely more parity this year. Which is good. At a minimum, going to try to keep Division numbers higher.

Wish this week was playoffs. Cripes I had a week.

[Freak Out]

Thomas can win it with 50 tonight. lol

To start, 16 teams is too many teams for a fantasy league. 12 teams is the maximum amount to allow for better flexibility and competitiveness. Also I don't plan to return next season so the "superflex" concept won't matter to me a bit.

Having been both League Manager and team owner in multi leagues, IMO, ESPN still is the top fantasy football game site. Yahoo Pick-em is good, but a player needs to be extra careful to check and verify your picks every week. An error can cost you a lot. but I probably will play this again next season.

I will try to revive the ESPN league that I ran for 6 seasons for next year. Limit will be 12 teams with no "superflex" or "rigged"draft trades. The most difficult part, as always,will be recruiting team owners. The securing and inviting of players does not allow for anyone joining without being invited.

Luck plays a major role in every fantasy football league season. We select our starters as best we can, but we cant go and play for them. Example: I thought that RB David Johnson (Arizona) would be healthy this season and put up great numbers, he's a flop.

Congratulations to this years winners and good luck in the playoffs.

Thought he might get it after watching the first half. Then they decided to cover him sometimes and let everyone else go.

8 teams, 10, 12, 14 or 16 teams - the Euro Rat wins again. All hail the Euro Rat!
