Hey y'all - I wanted to throw out a discussion for everyone.
Since COVID is still going on, I want to make sure we have an agreed-upon decision about how everyone would like to handle games that might be canceled due to COVID. There's obviously no way to predict this happening. The way I see it, we have a few options, and I wanted to see how everyone felt about them.
If you start someone whose game ends up being canceled, we can just accept it, and you take the zero. I'm sure this will anger some people, but it wouldn't be much different than in the past, when you don't find out until the game is played that someone sat out because they were injured.
Or, if you start someone whose game ends up being canceled, we can offer the option for me to automatically move a reserve at that position in to your starting lineup, that way you get some points. If it happens with someone in your Flex spot, I move that player out and replace it with your backup from that player's same position you attempted to start.
If we go with that, then we'd have to figure out if you want me to move the *lowest* scoring reserve in to that spot, or the *highest* scoring reserve in to that spot.
My other, very, very, very off-the-wall idea, which I don't know if anyone is going to want to do since we're already beyond the draft, would be this:
We can change this in to a "Best Ball" scoring league, which means that nobody needs to set a lineup all year, and each week, I just score your team and then each highest scorer at all three positions get inserted in to your lineup after the fact. So if you have two QB's who score 20 and 30 points, four RB's who score 5-10-20-20, and four WR's who score 5-5-10-10, I automatically put your QB who scored 30, your two RB's who scored 20, your two WR's who scored 10, and your RB (flex) who scored 10 in to your lineup for that weekend. That would take out a bit of the strategy involved, obviously. But that's another option we have if we want to perhaps avoid the COVID issue all together.
