You can always make a seperate field results only league if it's really that importnat. Fantasy FIRST is pretty free from to allowe such variaitions but as long as I am running a leauge all results will matter.
Bingo.

Most teams are organized into various groups: marketing, Chairman's, website, animation, etc. Disregarding the efforts of those students, to me, is like saying that the kicker (or, given the size of some of those subteams, the whole defensive line) no longer counts in fantasy football.

edit: And, by the same token, teams that aren't going beyond the robot are fielding something like a football team with no linebackers. You might get somewhere, but not as far as with a whole team.
