lost the homepage

Was messing with the reading section under settings and set it to show static page… it removed the banner and static front page it used to show. I try and switch back to make it say “show latest posts” but it resets once saved. I have gone in and deleted the homepage it keeps creating, but cant get the regular blackriders static front page. not a plugin issue as i have deactivated all of them and had same problem. Also updated to wordpress 4.7 on another site i am using same theme on and had no issues…. so i assume its an issue with reading settings. help please
