Keepers

Each team may keep one player per season. To be keeper-eligible, a player must:

  • Have originally been drafted in Rounds 14–17
  • Remain on the same team's roster for the entire season
  • Never be dropped
  • Never be traded

If a player is cut or traded at any point, that player loses keeper eligibility. No appeals.

Playoffs

Six teams make the playoffs. The two best regular-season records receive first-round byes. The remaining four playoff teams play in the opening round, with the winners advancing to face the top two seeds.

The Toilet Bowl

Hu$tle Toilet Bowl trophy

The Toilet Bowl belongs to the team with the worst overall regular-season record.

If two or more teams finish tied for the worst record, the Toilet Bowl goes to the team that scored the fewest total points during the regular season.

There is no escaping it through a consolation bracket. The regular season determines the loser.

The Kenny Powers

Kenny Powers trophy

The Kenny Powers recognizes the league's premier shit talker. Unlike the standings-based awards, the Kenny Powers is decided by a league-wide vote.
