Interesting Aspects of the Most Interesting Fantasy Football League
When you drafted a player (won him in the auction), you had to decide on how long of a contract you wanted to sign him to: one, two, three or four years long. Once the contract was over, you could “Franchise” tag him, or throw him back in the player pool. You were also able to trade him to another owner, who was then allowed to give him a contract extension. The auction draft was a slow draft held on MyFantasyLeague.com – an awesome site for handling quirky leagues like this – and any other league, really. Basically, you’d nominate a couple players at a time, and the entire league was able to bid on the player. The player was won after nobody bids on the player for 24 hours. So a bidding war would ensue, then it would slow, and finally, after 24 hours of no one bidding, the player would be won.
We had a rookie draft every season. Seven rounds of rookies were selected every year, in a worst-to-first non-snake order. Each rookie slot was given a salary number, which counted toward your salary cap.
Our salary cap would gradually increase each season, just like the NFL’s salary cap.
When you cut a player, your cap penalty depended on how many years left that player had on his contract.
We made it so that the $100 yearly league fee increased to $125, with $25 going into a jackpot that rolled over each season until Year 4, when the winner of that season got a Super Duper Jackpot. This helped keep owners in the league from year to year, since they had already invested in future seasons.
The Most Interesting Fantasy Football League Rules
Below, I’ve copied over the entire rules for your reading pleasure. I’m sure there are many leagues out there that borderline the similar amounts of insanity that this one had. Shoot me an email through the Contact page and tell me about it!

THE ABSOLUTE GRIDIRON BOWL!!
1) Lineups must be submitted for every week of the playoffs. Carry-over lineups from the previous week(s) are not valid.
2) During the playoffs, teams will be allowed to submit a list of backups (one per position) that will be used if a starter does not play or is injured in the first half of his game and doesn’t return. Proof of this must be obtained from NFL.com via the play by play account of the game or be picked up by an agreed upon news source.
II. Rosters
A. Construction
- Active players and IR players count toward the salary cap.
- Practice Squad players do not count against the cap until activated.
- During the season rosters will consist of a maximum of 38 active players, minimum of 30 players and a maximum of 5 practice squad players and 3 IR spots.
- Required position numbers are at least 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1TE, 1PK, 11 IDP’s.
- Roster totals may exceed these numbers in the offseason as a result of trades, pickups, or the rookie draft.
B. Injured Reserve
- Teams may reserve up to three players on the IR list. The player must be on the official NFL IR or PUP List.
- Players cannot be put onto the IR until after Week 1.
- A player on IR will have his salary reduced by one half for the remainder of the current season. If a player is CUT while on IR, the owner will take a one half salary cap hit on that player.
- A player on IR may be cut to make room for another player. Once cut, that player’s salary determines the cap penalties.
- Once a player is put on IR, he is ineligible for the rest of the season and/or playoffs for that team.
- If a player on IR is cut and then picked back up via free agency, the player is eligible to be placed on the active roster or PS of the new team.
C. Practice Squad
- Teams may reserve up to five players on their Practice Squad (PS).
- PS players do not count against the team salary cap until activated to the roster.
- Players may remain on a the PS for up to TWO seasons.
- PS players are PS-eligible only if they have played less than two seasons in the NFL.
- This does not equate to two seasons removed from his last college game. Once the two year period is started, it may not be interrupted due to injury. EXAMPLE: Robert Edwards was injured after his rookie season. He missed his second season while recovering from the injury. He was NOT eligible for the PS in his third season.
- AGA will officially move from the previous season to the next season 48 hours prior to the start of RFA/Tagged Player Auction. e.g. A second year player officially becomes a third year player on this date.
- Teams will be able to put PS eligible players on the PS no earlier than 48 hours prior to the start of RFA/Tagged Player Auction.
- During the season, other teams may request to sign another teams PS player to their active roster.
- PS claims are sent to the commissioner by 9 PM each Tuesday following week 1.
- At that time, each team will be notified of PS claims made on their players and have until 12:00 noon Thursday to decide whether to activate the claimed player to their active roster or let the player go.
- PS claims are not first come/first served (FCFS); if two teams make a claim on the same player the lower ranked team (as determined by the AGA tie-breaker system) gets the claim.
- Players on your active roster that qualify for the PS may be placed on the PS at anytime during the season, but once re-activated are no longer PS eligible for that season.
- A PS-eligible player may be placed back on the PS in his 2nd season.
- A player may only be activated from a team’s PS once per season.
- If the player is traded, the player must be placed on the new owner’s PS.
- A PS player can be released from the PS without taking a cap penalty.
- This holds true in year two of PS status regardless if the player was activated in year one.
- PS-Eligible players may be released at any time during the season or offseason with no penalty.
III. Starting Lineups

- In the event of a THURSDAY game, partial lineups may be submitted containing only those players playing in the THURSDAY game. All THURSDAY players MUST be started before the Thursday game. The same goes for Saturday games.

Please visithttp://www.inside99.net/Helmet_Project/ to find a helmet that fits your franchise best. Creativity is encouraged!
B. It is suggested that each owner name his team in the conventional CITY/STATE/REGION – Mascot format. Example: Florida Tarpons, Carson City Gun Runners, Bangor Behemoths…etc. The city/state should be an actual location in North America. (That would be Canada, USA, or Mexico for those short in the geography department!) We are just trying to be uniform and also trying to convey the image of quality ownership. Sexually suggestive or culturally insensitive team names may be replaced if complaints are voiced.

IX. Contract Options
A. Contract Types
After the initial player auction, all owners will need to designate contract length for each player. Deadline is one week from the end of the rookie draft. If contract lengths are not designated, default contract length will be one year. There are benefits and drawbacks that owners will need to weigh when assigning contract lengths. Here are the four types of contracts and the pay increases involved. Increases are based on original bid price.
| 4 YEAR CONTRACT | 3 YEAR CONTRACT | 2 YEAR CONTRACT | 1 YEAR CONTRACT |
| Year 1 | Original Bid | Original Bid | Original Bid | Original Bid |

- Franchise players are eligible for bidding only during the Restricted Free Agency period as noted on the league calendar.
- Teams may go over the salary cap when bidding on Franchise players.
- Only teams with the required draft choice compensation are eligible for bidding on Franchise players.

- Compensation for a Franchise Player is TWO 1st Round draft choices and $2 million from the winning team’s salary cap total.
- If a team bidding on a Franchise player has two first round draft choices in the immediate College Draft, the team receiving the compensation may choose whether to accept both picks immediately or defer one to the next season.
- Franchise players may be traded at any time during designated AGA trading periods except during the Free Agency period for RFA, Transition and Franchise players.

- Transition player tags remain with a player until the end of the current season or until the player is waived or traded.
X. Free Agent Auction
- All veteran Unrestricted Free Agents (players not on a roster) will be eligible for the Free Agent Auction.
- This auction will be conducted at the AGA website in a similar manner to the player allotment auction.
- The Free Agent Auction will precede the AGA Rookie Draft.
- Owners must be under the cap at all times during the FA Auction/Rookie Draft.
XI. Cap Penalties
- At no time are teams allowed to exceed the salary cap during the season.
- Once the season ends, players on IR and PS squads are placed back on the active roster.

- Second Offense: Loss of a second Franchise Tag and $1 million in additional cap money.
- Third Offense: Loss of two Transitional Free Agent Tags and $2 million in additional cap money.

XII. Expansion Contingency
In the event that an owner departs or is removed from the league, an “expansion team” format will be put in place the following off-season. The specifics of this format will be voted on by the league on an individual team basis, but can include the following:
- Each team will make available 3 players for an expansion draft.
- Each team may lose no more than two players.
- If a player is selected from their list of three players, that team has the option to pull back one of the two remaining players.
- The expansion owner will be given additional rookie draft picks in the first rookie draft that occurs after taking over the team.
- Those picks will come at the end of rounds 2, 4, and 6.
- The additional picks cannot be traded, but the players selected can be traded after the draft.
- The new owner would be able to cut players with a 50% decrease in cap penalties for the first off-season after assuming the franchise.
XIII. Amendments/Rule Changes
Each off-season the owners will have the opportunity to submit rule changes to be voted upon by the league. Rule changes will need a majority vote (7 owners).
XIV. Owner Expectations
In this league owners will be expected to adhere to the following principles.
· NEVER GIVE UP TRYING TO WIN YOUR NEXT GAME
· DO NOT BICKER WITH OTHER OWNERS
· DO NOT ASK FOR “SPECIAL” FAVORS FROM THE COMMISH
· DOUBLE CHECK YOUR SCORE EACH AND EVERY WEEK
· PAY YOUR LEAGUE FEES ON TIME
· ADD YOUR OWN FLAVOR TO MAKE THIS A DYNAMIC, FUN LEAGUE
· DO NOT ENGAGE IN ANY FORM OF COLLUSION OR DUMPING…
– Owners may be relieved of their franchise by a vote of at least 8 other owners if it is deemed to be in the best interest of the league.
– It would take three incidences of “misconduct” for removal to be put to a vote. 1st time = warning, 2nd time = probation, 3rd time = vote for dismissal.
– Probation shall be a 2nd round draft pick and loss of $1 million cap dollars

This is an awesome league type. I created it about 10 years ago! Cool to see someone else took it and made a few modifications. We use the same exact system for baseball too.
