Looking for a RB-dominant league?

With RBBC, PPR, and the variety of new changes in the game, I decided to fish for interest in a league where RBs are dominant once again.

The rules are basic as far as scoring for non-RBs. 25/4 for QBs, and 1/10 for yards for everyone else. Kickers, team defense (Although I’d be MORE than happy to go IDP if interest allows itself)

The key is how RBs are scored

point per 10 yards rushing
point per 5 yards receiving
point per 4 rushing attempts
extra points @ 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 250 and 300 yards rushing
PPR for RBs only
5 points for 50+ receiving yards (RBs only)
10 points for 100+ receiving yards (RBs only)
extra points for rushing TDs of 40, 60, 75, and 90 yard runs

AND…..

for RBs only,
1 point for 20 kickoff return yards
1 point for 10 punt return yards

roster requirements:
1/2/2/1, with 2 flex (plus kicker and DST)

if this interests you, leave an email addres and I’ll send you an invite

it’s a non-money league on Fleaflicker. I’m shooting for an 8-10 man league, but if interest is big enough, I’ll do 2 leagues.

These rules would make lending a top RB like hitting the lottery. It makes your weaker, RBBC RB's have decent stats, but the top RB's would probably score double the highest player of any other position.

I would not like watching someone with the top RB sail to a championship regardless of how the rest of their team was drafted….

Having LT '06 in this type of league would have guaranteed you a title even if the rest of your team was complete trash.

That’s not RB heavy, that’s RB morbidly obese.

Just a heads up….

If we were on the meds Keth is…this would look absolutely normal. We’ll just add this one to the “Torturous Tales of Kethnaab” thread we’ll start after he gets back to his prickly self…it’ll be a few weeks. ;) …or more.

hahahaha…no man, I made spreadsheets to calculate stuff. Aside from a few of the freaks, you’d be amazed how close it really is, especially because of the return yardage and PPR stuff. Yeah, Westy and LT were way ahead of everyone else.

Duh.

But who had more APY in 2007, Leon Washington or LT2? What about Darren Sproles? Hey, here’s a good one, which running back for Atlanta in 2008 had over 2000 APY in 2007?

LT2 led the NFL in rushing yards, but he had less yards rushing than Maurice Hicks (RB, SF) had return yards.

All of a sudden you peeps who are praying for Fred Taylor to get some type of horrible vaginal disease so MJD can get the bulk of the carries…guess what? He was #5 in the scoring format! Yowza, outscored Tom Brady by 50 points! How about Kenny Watson’s 52 passes and his multiple 100-YFS games making him outscore Tony Romo?

HAHAHAHA!

okay. Time for meds and time for bed.

g’nite.

still working out the details. I have it mostly made on fleaflicker, but i’m testing the scoring to make sure it’s not beyond ridiculous.
