    After former Broncos quarterback Brian Griese sprained his ankle and said he was tripped on the stairs of his home by his golden retriever, Bella: “The dog stood up on his hind legs and gave him a push? You might want to get rid of that dog, or put him in the circus, one of the two.”

            I think was to finish up the draft rosters.

            • I'm not sure there's a way to have a FAAB run and then have the players available as FCFS. If you try to add any player now, it says the player is unavailable until the next FAAB run on Wednesday. If there's no way around this, then there will be two FAAB runs each week. I'll send CBS a message, or if anyone knows how to do this, lemme know.

              • According to CBS, we can't do waivers this way. So either we need to do FAAB twice a week, or go back to the old waiver draft/FCFS system.

                • Another reason to ditch CBS. Myfantasyleague.com does FAAB and FCFS in the same week with no issues.

                    3 guys don't want to FAAB twice a week and you're ready to ditch CBS? I hope you didn't treat your girlfriends the same way when you were single, lol.

                    What are the other reasons?

                    • CBS sucks. Its interface is lame and its prone to crashing on Sundays. And it can't do something as basic as run FAAB and FCFS in the same week. Even Yahoo, a free site, can do that. It's nowhere near worth the premium it charges vs. other pay sites.

                      CBS is not nor never has been my girlfriend. If I were around at this league's inception, I would have argued strenuously against using it.

                      I'm not suggesting switching now, but I am strongly in favor of looking elsewhere for next year.

                        That hasn't happened in 5 years. I've never had any major issues with CBS in the 15 years I've been using them for fantasy football.

                        So let's discuss the immediate issue -- FAAB twice per week or Waivers once then FCFS (the old way)? Griswold needs to know since he doesn't have a legal lineup for this week.

                          So, we're running FAAB already? And with 15 slots, how the hell doesn't everyone have a complete lineup? Seems like that should have been a requirement...

                          • I will do whatever we decide, but first come first serve after waivers is a lot easier for me.

                              No, it was supposed to be FAAB + FCFS, but it turns out CBS can't do that. And for whatever the reason, this league doesn't want two FAAB periods (always so much drama in the RJ leagues than ANY of my other leagues, lol!)

                              I switched it to waivers + FCFS since the season is upon us. Waivers runs on wednesday, FCFS afterward -- just like last season.

                              Horns, there was no requirement to draft a legal lineup, but you do need to employ a legal lineup. That means Gris needs to pick up a defense today or tomorrow morning, or he forfeits his game this week.

                                OK, might be something to think about for the future through...with 15 spots you really should have a legal line-up, barring injuries.
