This is the 2nd time I’ve won the points title while missing the playoffs. That’s got to be some sort of record, no?

EDIT: I posted saying surely it had to be a record, but now I’m curious to see if I can go back and look. Definitely not on the phone app, but I’m hopeful I can on the computer.

In any case, you have had exceptionally bad luck.

This is why I find it odd that we include playoffs for the “Points Leader”. Those aren’t games that Yahoo tracks in the traditional sense so why are they being counted for what should be a regular season stat?

Anyway, congrats go to Retro! I love a good giant killing and you killed the biggest giants there were this season.

That hasn’t aged well.

Bump. I assume we’re on for this upcoming season.

I am returning, but I will be in Europe from Aug 21-September 1 which is the usual draft time. Last preseason games are Aug 23.

I should be able to draft easily enough and the time zone gap shouldn’t be too bad, but I figured I’d give a heads up.

We will of course be on. I sent Jules a PM a few days ago asking if he’d like to do the thread again because he does such a good job but if he doesn’t get back to me in a few days I will start it.

Testing single-line spacing for our draft results, which appear to have gone away recently.

1.01 Stud RB

1.02 Stud RB

1.03 Crazy QB Reach

Well that sucks. Maybe code tags?

[code]

1.01 Stud RB

1.02 Stud RB

1.03 Crazy QB Reach

[/code]

Yikes. Hopefully this is a bug that gets fixed, as opposed to a new “feature.”

Workaround identified. If the forced double space issue ends up staying, we can switch to markdown in the reply window on the top left of the toolbar. It looks like a slider, slid to the right selecting “A”. When you click it, it slides to the left selecting “M+”.

That  
lets  
you  
do  
single  
spacing.

Unfortunately the reply window uses a monospace font when you do that, but you can’t have everything.

EDIT: Not just draft results, the new thread OP may need to make use of this trick as well.

Is there something in the water in the massage parlors in the AFC North? Couldn’t Justin Tucker and Deshaun Watson just rubbed each other?

I can’t believe I just may have to use a draft pick on a kicker this year.
