| Defensive Score
9 points
Kick-off/Punt Score
9 points for the Defense and the player
who scores the TD
Defensive Point Differential
14 points
Based on the following formula: 14 points minus
points allowed by the defensive team
Points for Yardage
Quarterbacks- for each 300 yards thrown in a game : 3 points
Quarterbacks- for each 100 yards gained (rushing or receiving)
: 3 points
Running Backs - for each 100 yards gained (rushing or receiving)
: 3 points
Wide Receivers - for each 100 yards gained (receiving or
rushing) : 3 points
Special Scoring for Kickers
If a kicker fakes a field goal and runs
or throws a TD, it will be scored using the RB or QB scoring
system.
Miami scores: Jackson 5 yard lateral from
Fryar, pass from Marino. Scoring will be awarded as follows:
Total play covers - 26 yards
Quarterback Marino - 26 yard passing TD = 8 points
Jackson and Fryar - 26 yard receiving TD = 10 points, spit 5 points
each
Fumbles recovered in the endzone by offensive players
will be scored as a one (1) yard run (i.e., six points), unless
scored differently on the NFL web site.
Each week of the Lost Wages Football League will
end 12 midnight on Monday night. The LWFL does not follow the typical
calendar week.
Each week, head-to-head competition between owners
will determine a winner and loser. Each loser will pay $6 to the
league funds. In the event of a tie, each owner will pay $3. The
high scorer for the week will receive $12 and the second high scorer
will receive $9. The remaining balance of monies collected will
go to the league fund.
Transactions are available to all team owners
to improve a team or to compensate for injuries and bye-picks.
i) Free Agents - All un-drafted players are included
in a free agent pool.
ii) Bye-Picks - A modified form of free
agent acquisition for players on a team with a bye. Bye-picks
will be allowed for Quarterbacks, Kickers, or Defenses,
only and this player must be used in the owner's starting
lineup for that week. All bye-picks will be automatically
dropped at 3 pm on Tuesday unless the Commissioner is notified
otherwise.
iii) Trades - Trading players and draft picks is
allowed. The Commissioner has the right to void any trade deemed
detrimental to the integrity of the LWFL. Additionally, if a specific
owner feels a trade in which the Commissioner has been involved,
meets this criterion, the owner may call for a vote of the owners
of the league. If a majority of owners agree (6 of the 10 owners),
the trade will be voided.
iv) The Free Agent List - The free agent list on
the web site is locked at 10 AM on Sunday and remains so until the
current week ends (12 midnight on Monday). If an owner wishes to
make a transaction while the free agent list is locked, he must
email or phone the commissioner to do so. A transaction is awarded
to whomever calls or emails first. Owners cannot request a transaction
before a player is available. - i.e. an owner cannot send an email
stating that he wishes to add player B after player A's game is
over. A starting player cannot be dropped until his game is over.
Players on the bench may be dropped at anytime. Once the free agent
list is unlocked, all transactions must be made using the web site.
Transactions by email or phone to the Commissioner are not allowed
while the free agent list is open unless there is a problem with
the web site and online transactions are not possible.
Transactions made by the acting Commissioner while
the free agent list is locked must be verified by another owner
in the league. The Commissioner may call any owner. The owner who
communicates with the Commissioner will record the date, time, and
player(s) involved. This information will appear on the transactions
page when the Commissioner updates the site.

will be used:

Each year, the Commissioner will determine the
LWFL schedule by drawing lots.
The League franchise fee is $180 per team. The
extra $30 is an incentive for hosting the league on Sunday (or Monday).
When an owner hosts, the $30 will be applied toward their league
expenses.

pay the Commissioner immediately after they are notified of the
applicable amount owed. Payouts are as follows:

Playoff fees are an additional $15 assessed at
the end of the regular season. This assessment is due and payable
at the end of the regular season and is to be used to form a winner-take-all
pool. All rosters are frozen at the conclusion of the regular season.
The winner of the playoff pool is the owner accumulating the most
points throughout the playoffs and Superbowl. In the event of a
tie, the playoff pool is divided equally among those owners.
i) The Commissioner will be reachable by phone
until at least 10:00 AM on Sundays.
ii) Results for the previously completed week will be posted
on the league web site (www.LWfootball.com) no later than
Tuesday, 10pm.
iii) If unavailable during a week or weekend, the Commissioner
will select an owner to assume his duties during this period,
from the league owners.
Amending the LWFL bylaws requires majority agreement
among the LWFL owners, i.e., 6 of the 10 owners in the league must
agree to the proposed change.
