This is a fukking disgrace.

Marshall, Diggs, Robinson, Cruz, Wallace on the bench. Two bye players starting and some dude called Rashard Higgins, who I've never heard of.
I sent him a PM warning him that if it happens again, I will call for his removal from the league.

And everyone else in the league should consider this your warning too.

Was in a 51 point hole after TNF going against Jameis and Evans but I'm right back in it.

Sucks to know that my game would already be won if I didn't change QB at the last second, but if I can't get 20 points out of Carr and Shady, I might as well jump off a bridge anyway. :lol:

And while we're at it, how about starting Buck Allen, Dwayne Washington, Justin Hardy, and the fvcking BROWNS defense with Frank Gore, TJ Yeldon, Sterling Shepard, and the Chiefs defense on the bench...

This $hit needs to stop right now. Seriously, the Browns defense? That's indefensible.

Yeah that's a joke and I would've expected better from MB

I say one warning and then boot them out, we can find more active owners if needed, it ruins the integrity of the league

I think it's kind of ridiculous to think that some of us have an actual life outside of fantasy football, like family, kids, etc. I'm not a perfect fantasy player and no I'm not intentionally tanking, I have more integrity than that. Like time I checked, the nba sixers rebuild by using a semi-tanking strategy to achieve better draft position. Worry about your own teams and your strategy, because everyone has their own strategy based on team record.

Xuxlu did this exact same thing in the playoffs because it helped his team and no one threatened to kick him out of the league? I at least started active players at every spot. He didn't even do that. I'm not sure why this is any different?

Many of us have family, work, kids, etc. Regardless if you play in the league you commit to playing the right way. Starting scrubs and players on bye is blatant tanking and ruins the integrity of the league. Are you suggesting its OK to tank for draft position?

I raised the Xulu issue at the time also

Its pretty simple guys, you should be starting your best lineup every week, otherwise you're tanking and that is bleep for the league

You would be naive if you don't think this doesn't happen in professional sports, it's a strategy, sometimes it doesn't work out too.

Active owners are great but tanking ruins the league
