A few changes have come up as we get closer to the season and I wanted to highlight them.
The playoffs are going to be over the final 3 weeks of the season, unless your league only has 4 playoff teams, in which case they will be over the final 2 weeks of the season. They will be single week matchups.
This will no longer be the case. For most leagues (i.e. leagues with more than 4 playoff teams) this will result in a 22-week regular season, which will allow every team to play every other team 2 times. A couple of the weeks will be a little shorter as a result, but the balanced schedule is well worth it. Leagues with 4 playoff teams will have a 23-week regular season and will get a bonus 3rd game against one opponent.
This has been moved to the end of February, so no trades will be allowed starting March 1 at 12:00am ET. Having the baseball keeper deadline and the basketball trade deadline on the same date was a bit much, so I made this adjustment when someone pointed this out to me.
The site and the rules page reflect these changes. Let me know if anyone has any questions.
There is still plenty of time to sign up for a league and plenty of leagues looking for managers.
