Hey, WTF is this with me can't pick up a kicker and have to be on waiver BS? Drop the freaking waiver requirement, either he's available, or not.

What are you talking about? You can't pick up a guy that is in the middle of a game.

looks like someone didn't pick up a kicker for this week. players go on waivers after the games start

No, there are some kickers that are not playing yet and I can't pick them up. It goes to waiver, freaking BS.

Oh this is the Yahoo league. I was looking on the ESPN league where all of them are available, aside from the ones in game.

That is stupid.

Why do we have waiver on free agents? If you're in this league, help abolish this idiotic rule by voicing your opinion here.

Not everyone, but it's impeding when all you're trying to pick up is a kicker, and it's retarded.

Rechecked the league settings just now, and I can't change the waiver system now, even if I wanted to. The settings were visible before we even drafted back in September, and unfortunately Yahoo does not allow changes to the waiver system post-draft. Sorry.

The settings are the same for everyone in the league, at least: you need to make changes to your roster before the slate of games begin on Sunday (one of the reasons why it's helpful to have a balanced and healthy bench) and to your lineup before your players play that week.

Sorry again for the roster/lineup issues, SSSnail, but I don't feel comfortable changing anyone's lineup unless it is agreed upon by league in order to maintain fairness, as in the case of a consistently non-participating league member.

For the immediate future, I recommend maintaining healthy backups for all questionable and doubtful players, as well as for your regular starters on bye that week.

I noticed the same thing recently.
Usually, waivers are only for the first few days of the week.

Free agents should be available anytime, up until game time, after the waiver period.

I'm pretty much done with FF and some of the bullshit these players manage to pull out of their asses. Maybe I'll enjoy football a bit more not having to worry about some made up numbers.

I prefer Roto Baseball (or Roto Basketball), which is funny because I don't even watch Baseball. Fantasy Football seems to be so much more about luck than the other games. Could be I just suck at it though. :D

thanks, it's a tough loss for sure, your team beasted the whole season.

It isn't much consolation for me though as I got destroyed in my main league :(
