1. Am I under any obligation to tell him now?
2. Should I notify the commissioner now?
3. If I notify any other league-mates is that collusion?
4. A game was already played this week, does that mean he shouldn't be able to adjust anything?
5. The specific issue is that you can't roster, let alone play, 2 Chiefs players. He has Hardman and Butker in his lineup now. They shouldn't both even be ROSTERED. So even if he benches one of them, he's still in violation of the rules. But assuming he doesn't adjust his lineup, which player's points should the commissioner deduct?
Obviously, the difference in potential points between Hardman and Butker is substantial. You guys have any thoughts on how to deal with this?
Yeah, get rid of that dumb rule.
Ha!
This league is a league made up of Chiefs fans. The whole league was founded on the idea that FF is fun but "I hate ever rooting against my team!" As a result you can't roster any AFC West opponents at all, you can't start anyone against the Chiefs (so no one can play any Lions this week, for example), and in order to keep any one team from hording Chiefs players and to help with team depth since all other AFCW players are off the table, you can only have one Chief at a time.
It was the only way some of these players would participate in a FF league. I don't think the rule is going anywhere.

Wow, that's significantly worse than I imagined. I don't even know which teams play in the AFCW.

It's always possible. But I think it's more likely that he'll have one or two big plays that make him worth starting.

Hmm. I won the Wayne Gallman lottery and with TY hurt I'm flipping between Hardman and Gallman at flex.

You said it's a PPR league, right?
Man, that's tricky. We just don't know how Gallman will be used and how much he'll split time. The match up certainly favors Gallman. I feel like it depends on what you need. If you need big points go Hardman. I think he's a little riskier but has way more upside. If you're need more of a safe play, I'd go Gallman.

Yeah half PPR. I'll probably flip a coin on it. It looks like I should have the win locked up, between Adams and a good matchup for Jackson, but he's got a few guys who could go off and make it close.

I'll definitely be monitoring both as I'm starting Gallman in my Chiefs league and Hardman in my other league.

Joe, why don’t you make the opponent aware of the violation and then lobby for yourself getting a second chiefs pickup this week to make it fair? Then both of you drop a Chief after the matchup.

Also, with the league being so Chief-fan friendly, what’s it like rooting against your opponent’s Chief?

Wait a second... now that's an interesting idea.

My opponent dropped Hardman.
I would have dropped Butker but whatever. He's an idiot.
