Okay, you can't just eliminate the TE position from league. If it's a weak year for tight ends? Deal with it! If a guy wants to draft 3 elite tight ends? Let him!
QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, Flex, K, Def. Done and done. If you value tight ends that much, you'll be drafting Gronkosaurus really early. If you think that the next Fred Davis is waiting in the wings on some crappy team? You'll be ignoring TE until later. But the fact is the TE is a standard fantasy football position. Why don't we just eliminate catcher in fantasy baseball, since so many of those guys suck as well.
C'mon now.
Edit: Also, a draft on Labor Day Weekend? That has about a .000000001% chance of working out with a 20 person league, the draft date/time should probably be mid-week one night.
The thing is, though there are formations on football without te's. I like the way it's set up now where you have te/wr slots instead of mandatory of each. I think that creates a little more in the way of options.
Every team employs a starting TE. Every single NFL team.
Look at any high-flying high-octane offense, and you'll see a studtastic TE. Pats/Gronk, Packers/Finley, Saints/Graham, Detroit/Pettigrew, San Diego/Gates, Panthers/Olson, Falcons/Gonzalez and so on. In fact, the Giants are the only top 10 offense from 2011 that isn't returning it's starting TE. TE is a massively important position in real life, and to eliminate it from a fantasy league because it might be too hard to find a good TE later in the draft is soft.
SOFFFFFFFFT. It's football, put your man pants on and draft a TE. I can name 30 TE's off the top of my head that don't suck, just pick one and hope you get 3-4 big weeks from him.
If you want to leave that one position a WR/TE option, I'm fine with that. But definitely should have a standard TE position so people can't completely avoid it to stock up on RB's or WR's.

Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
- The max teams have been dropped from 20 to 18, since there were two open spots. - Roster spots are now: QB, 2 WR, 2 RB, TE, Flex, K, DEF, 6 bench - With 18 teams, split into three groups of six. I'd like Unchained Division to be: me, Quacker, Dave, RDK, and Flanzo. Probably Hakuna to round it out. If anyone wants to be in the same division as someone, I can try and work things around. - Draft time was moved to Wed Aug 29th at 7:30p ET. It's a week before the start of the regular season. Why does the season start on a Wednesday???
Also what's everyone's name? I can tell who most of the teams owners are by looking at their names or their yahoo profile, but some I'm not sure. Mine's "Laces Out". LD, if you wish you could put their team name next to their name in the op.
Does the site not set the draft order right before the draft?
Either way I'll make sure it's randomized. Some leagues they let you set the draft order. In another league I'm in, it's based on your result from last year - and the commish has to manually set it.

What happens if my tee shot lands on a bird's back and he carries it out of bounds but then is attacked by a larger bird who grabs the ball and drops it in the hole? Is that still a hole in one? 'Cause that's how I'm gonna play it.
hey sang, are we still having our normal 10-12 team league as per usual this year? since I'm defending champ and all I am interested in that again
and if there is still a spot for this enormous crazy sized league i would join
You would make 19. Either one drops or we get one more.
I'll be #20 if you still need one. Sending you my email via PM now.
I have to mention that my schedule around Labor Day is a bit hectic. I'm a delegate to the Democratic National Convention taking place Labor Day through the following Thursday. I'll be in attendance for that big Obama nomination acceptance speech pushing the game up a day. As such, I have a crazy schedule that week and there's a chance I might have to autodraft depending on when it is. Let me know if that'd be okay.
