League Scoring

My buddy talked me into a league where it is $50 buy-in and failed to mention one kind of important part... players get points for return yards same as players. I was looking at some of these guys rosters going, "wow this will be easy, this jackass is starting Johnnie Lee Higgins LMAO!" Well guess what, laugh was on me. I also had 1st pick and took LT. Well now I have foundout that Reggie Bush is the LT in this scoring. What a joke? Who gives you return yards for individual players? I advise all of you to not get in a league that has this format, its ridiculous and stupid.

I can't agree more, I was hammered at a wedding when a buddy asked me to please take the last spot in his league, I agreed and found out at the draft the scoring was like this, but worse RBs get points for each attempt. Needless to say I did not have kick returners on my pre draft rankings I made. However saying all that I am in first place in this league thanks to guys like Jonathan Stewart and D'sean Jackson, rookies that I decided to take a flyer on, lol

yeah this one is the first I have been in where you get points for each catch, i used to just yards and TDs. I couldnt imagine how bad that would suck to be in a league where they give points for rush attempts. wow. So a RB that breaks a long run is worth less than some Rb on a shit team that has 20 carries for 2 yards. I feel for you man. I guess we learned our lesson to study the league beforehand. Honestly they only reason I got in it is because he owed $50 from a Detroit-Boston series bet and it had been so long i figured it was the only way I was going to get my money lol
