Constitution · inaugural 2026

Rules

Sunday Scaries FFL. Eight friends. Sleeper is the official platform. This is not another league and does not carry another league’s history. Sleeper stat corrections stand. Have Fun and Don’t Be a Dick.

1. Officers

Commissioner: Will Maness. Vice commissioner: Ben Bankhead. There is no treasurer. League payments run through Sleeper.

The commissioner handles matters not expressly covered here. Anyone directly involved in a dispute recuses. If the commissioner’s team is involved, the vice commissioner decides. Collusion and temporary player loans are prohibited. Active lineups are required every week.

2. Entry fee and payouts

Entry fee: $30, paid through Sleeper. Eight paid seats make a $240 pot. 1st place 80% ($192). 2nd place 20% ($48). No third-place payout unless the league later approves one.

3. Draft

Thursday, Aug 27, 2026, 8:15 PM CT, Haute Poppies Floral. Sleeper live auction. $200 budget. $1 minimum. Sixteen drafted roster spots. IR starts empty. Auction dollars are not cash and do not become FAAB. No keepers in the 2026 draft.

4. Roster

Start: 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 2 FLEX (RB/WR/TE), 1 SUPERFLEX (QB/RB/WR/TE), 1 K, 1 DEF.

Bench 5. IR 1. Two regular flexes plus one superflex.

5. Scoring

Half-PPR. Receptions are 0.5. Other scoring categories follow the posted Sleeper settings for this league. Official Sleeper stat corrections stand.

6. Waivers / FAAB

$100 FAAB per team per season. Claims are blind bids. Highest bid wins. Equal bids break by Sleeper’s rolling waiver priority. Sleeper’s waiver processing schedule controls the clock. Routine trades are not league-voted. Collusion may be blocked by the officers.

7. Championship bracket

Regular season runs through Week 15. Playoffs begin Week 16. Championship is Week 17. Four teams. No first-round byes.

Standings: win/loss first, points for as the first tiebreaker.

Week 16: #1 vs #4, #2 vs #3. Winners play in Week 17. The Week 17 winner is the Sunday Scaries FFL Champion.

8. Toilet Bowl — lose and advance

Seeds #5, #6, #7, #8. This is not a consolation bracket where winners advance. The loser advances.

Week 16: #5 vs #8, #6 vs #7. The two Week 16 losers play in Week 17. The loser of the Week 17 Toilet Bowl final is last place.

Last-place punishment: a modified NFL combine.

9. Weekly low score

The manager with the lowest scoring lineup that week shotguns a beer, takes a selfie doing it, and sends the selfie to the group.

10. Keepers

There are no keepers in 2026. Sunday Scaries has no prior rosters. Nobody keeps a player this season.

If a future season adopts keepers, the league votes that framework then. Nothing carries over from another league unless this league approves it.

11. Amendments

Offseason amendments may be proposed by any member. Permanent constitutional amendments need 5 affirmative votes of 8. On a 4–4 deadlock of a matter that permits a simple majority, the commissioner breaks the tie if not personally conflicted.

Have Fun and Don’t Be a Dick.
