As most of you know, we have a few that have failed to submit any picks since the beginning of the season. I'm not talking about the ones who simple slipped up and forgot to get them in one week ... I'm referring to the ones that have not submitted any picks for 3 consecutive weeks. I'll refer to them as No Shows. This is getting to be a little annoying; and it takes away some of the fun from those that do submit their picks and have the unfortunate luck to be matched up against a No Show. I did make an appeal to any GSB member that if any wanted to take those spots to simple indicate as such. Nobody gave such indication.

So ... I came up with an idea to possible rectify this problem. Any member who hasn't submitted any picks for 2 or more consecutive weeks will have their spot in the PFL filled by what I'm calling an LGP (League Generated Player). These LGPs will have their picks chosen by a few personal friends of mine, and submitted on their behalf by me. This is being done to maintain the original competitive intent of the Head to Head Match-Ups. I'm sure you guys are getting tired of submitting your picks, only to discover on GameDay that your opponent is a No Show. This process will start with next week's Match-Ups.

Now, if any No Show decides that they wish for their membership in the PFL to be reinstated, they may do so by request, and then it will be up to the Commissioner of their conference to approve the reinstatement. The CC may also impose stipulations to that reinstatement. Any proposed stipulations by the CC must be approved by the League Commissioner ... in other words ... by me.

Feel free to comment.

I love the fact a point hasn't been scored on me.

Yeah, but wouldn't you enjoy it more knowing you outwitted your opponent, and simply proved you are way better?

I would just eliminate some - say each "division" has at least 2 no shows. Eliminate 2 spots from every "division" and fill the remainder as you suggest.

Don;t be slipping any ringers in here.

If I play a "no show" I win if my weekly score is above the league average for the week, and I lose if my score is below the league average.

Sorry, I dropped the ball this week. Tried to view the Google doc on my tablet and had some trouble with it, so gave up and just forgot about it. Next few weeks are gonna be busy for me, so if I forget again, pull me.

Wouldn't want to pull you S1C ... understand about being busy and simply forgetting or not having time to get em in ... how about maybe getting retooc or someone else in the conference to submit them for you if you haven't done so by Friday?

*Heck ... I would even be willing to do it for you if you trust me to do it.

Haha....that's a thought.

I'll try to get em in myself, but I wouldn't care if you picked, either....heck, I was 1-2 going into today....you couldn't possibly do much worse!
