Here you go Slap, no more email. I need a funny picture for my efforts. Can I send the league a bill for the $4,347 worth of time I should have billed while making this argument for the past three days? I'll skip the bill and take a nice caption to go with my picture.
Another suggestion for using the points standings to determine the cost sheet.
1st $2,250,000
2nd $2,175,000
3rd $2,100,000
4th $2,025,000
5th $1,950,000
6th $1,875,000
7th $1,800,000
8th $1,725,000
9th $1,650,000
10th $1,575,000
11th $1,500,000
12th $1,425,000
13th $1,350,000
14th $1,275,000
15th $1,200,000
etc.
For the record, I don't think any format change will make it easier for me to do well in the league. I admit that I am not very good at this as I have proven for years now. My suggestions are not to make the league more fair, but more enjoyable. No matter what the format is I plan on participating as I always have.
However, I personally think that picking and doing research on drivers who get some level of television coverage is more interesting than picking among back of the pack drivers. Am I alone on this? I also believe there is a way to structure the league where we can pick from the better drivers and still not have everyone picking the same two guys each week. After thinking about this I have come to the conclusion that the best way to fix what I perceive as a problem (which I also believe will become more evident as the weeks go on) is to base the cost of drivers on the point standings instead of each driver's weekly performance.
Had we used this system all season Carl Edwards, Kyle Busch and Greg Biffle would not have been so popular in the first half of the season because their respective rises in the point standings would have corrected their low start of the season values without skewing the other drivers who started the season priced correctly. (I am not pointing any fingers at the makers of the original cost sheet here, I realize that they cannot see the future and that it is not their fault that some drivers are incorrectly valued at the start of each season).
Jimmie and Newman wouldn't have remained such steals in their first season under this format either.
