Fantasy Football - A Modest Proposal

I have an idea for fantasy football next year, so that everyone stays interested. The biggest problem with fantasy sports is that people drop out. I hate this. So, to keep everyone involved, let's bring in money and have some on the line every week. Here's my proposal:

Let's assume we have ten players. (We can adjust for a different number)
Each player puts $35 into the pot at the start of the season, a reasonable amount.
Each week, you play a head to head game. The winner of each game gets $1.
Each week, the player with the most points wins $5.
MONEY paid each week - $10
Times 14 weeks equals $140 paid.

Whomever wins the tournament at season's end wins $100. (Runner-up gets $10)
Whomever ends up with the most points at season's end also wins $100.
Anyone who wins both pots is heralded as a god, winning the mighty double.

All winnings paid at the end of the year. Rules and payouts certainly open to debate. Any takers?
