So I ask the question again - what do you say to the person who goes 5-8 and misses the playoffs but has the 3rd-most points in the league? Tell him that's too bad because of the matchup? Seems very opposite thinking to me.Because we play against another team because that's the nature of sport. We like to have individual games as opposed to a mass coagulation of points at the end of the year. However, it really is those points that show who was the better team. Because if you end up tied with me in the standings but the week we played, half your team was on bye, then it wasn't really your team that I beat...so you end up missing the playoffs on a scheduling "conflict"...So if the one-time matchup has nothing to do with anything, then why have them? I still haven't been convinced by anyone's argument.I didn't know there was an alternative. It should always be points. The one-time matchup has nothing to do with anything.In other news, want to get the opinion of those who play - a league that has matchups each week in which everyone plays each other once (14 teams) uses points and not head-to-head as tiebreakers for regular season money and playoff matchups. Thoughts?
The matchup itself is meaningless other than it provides some measuring stick on a weekly basis...why that would be a random.tiebreaker is beyond me or anyone I have ever played in a real league with...
Yeah, honestly.So I ask the question again - what do you say to the person who goes 5-8 and misses the playoffs but has the 3rd-most points in the league?

Foundation of sport/competition vs. tiebreaking procedures. Best teams will often survive both. Rare cases occur where it doesn't happen, of course. But if you don't like it, run a rotisserie league that no one will join...So I ask the question again - what do you say to the person who goes 5-8 and misses the playoffs but has the 3rd-most points in the league?

12 team, no ppr
my RBs suck but I'm fine with everything else
won the leagueThat's risky drafting in a no ppr. I'm curious how it will end up doing.
