One guy in our league is threatening to quit because he says the scoring is rigged. We use standard Yahoo settings that haven't changed in 5 years. He just happened to pick bad WRs this year and now suddenly it's everyone else's fault. We told him if he wants to leave no one is forcing him to stay but I hate when this happens every season with someone.
Standard scoring shouldn't be rigged unless your league settings got changed mid-season. Have you pulled up the actual scoring breakdown for his games? Sometimes guys just don't want to admit they made bad draft picks.
That guy is just mad because he's losing. Scoring is scoring, everyone agreed to it before the season started. Just let him blow off steam, he'll get over it.
If he quits over fantasy football that's on him honestly. League rules are league rules. Don't let one guy hold the whole thing hostage.
This is why I stopped doing fantasy leagues. Too much drama over something that's supposed to be fun. Have you thought about just kicking him out if he won't stop complaining?
Ugh fantasy football drama is the worst. We had someone try to veto a trade last year because they didn't like the other guy. Shut that down real quick and made league rules super clear.
You guys should just show him the scoring system in writing from the league settings. Nine times out of ten when people claim something is rigged they're just not paying attention.

One guy threatening to quit happens every year in my league. Just let him know the door's open and move on. You can't make everyone happy with fantasy football rules.
