Thanks to captain tripps for setting us up.
tried to signup but there was an error message saying the password is incorrect :-/
i just put in football anyone else know about this?
try it in all lowercase
got it to work. thanks! that makes six of us, we need four more!
sweet! just two more would be nice. eight's a good number.
I think I can do 5 PM Central on Friday. Word.
This is gonna be fun.
we got seven, three more to go!!!
who joined as in da butt?
okay. for the record...
aMillionDreams = aMillionWHODEYS
Corey= Olwiggum = DirtySouthHeat
BowlofSoup = Bowl of Soup
knotcameloose = The Jacketeers
CaptainTripps = The Tennesse Fire
etwvig0 = Easy E's Jacket
Red = K = bigfoot
True = Team Ramrod
Jon T = In Da Butt
if there's only eight teams, we should add a couple more positions then.
i really don't like vick, and really don't think he's that good of a qb, but i really wanted him in fantasy. i had him last year, and enjoyed his style of play. although last year in my money league i had the worst draft in the history of Fantasy Football.
so, assuming LT goes one. stephen jackson goes number two? that who i'm taking at two.
Bigfoot in the house!
I was always a fan of Vick as a QB, but I just recently seen a picture of one of the dogs he had fighting, or whatever, and it was one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen in my life. That man deserves more than he'll ever get.
that makes eight now. 8-)
two more would be great.
If we can't get 2 more people from here, my brother might be interested in signing up if y'all are cool with that. If not, that's cool too. Just let me know.
Then again, maybe he won't won't to sign up. Still, let me know. :)
tell him to sign up! It's no big deal to me
i signed up as Team Ramrod, but i won't be able to make the draft, i think i work 5-12 eastern time. I may change the name of my team also.
who is in da butt?? :o
true welcome, glad to see yah.
one more needed!!!!
Quotewho is in da butt?? :o
:-/

i like TO, i will take him (if he's around) first pick of the third round!! if i have the first pick of the 3rd round.. that is.
also people, if you are like true and red, and you can't make it to draft, you can still be in the league. sure you may not get the people you like, but it will draft the best available player for you. it WONT draft 15 QB's even if they are the best available players. also you can be like AMD, and pre rank your players, so it will draft the players you want, if they are still there!! one more to go...lets fill it!!

in da butt, make yourself known. i would hate losing to a person i don't know, even if that person is a fan of the jacket.
Sorry. I am In da Butt!!!!! If someone else would rather play I will pull out of being In da Butt :-*
Seriously, i was just trying to help fill the league. But if not In da butt shall be victorious.....
It's cool. We just wanted to know who you were. :)

yeah, we were just wondering. i hope you're ready to have your butt and whatever's in it handed to ya. ;)
I'm trying to decide if I want to pick my players based on:
a) who I like
b) who will kick your asses
I can't decide which route to take. I may go half and half.

hey that's my old avatar!
corey, i'm going with a lineup that i like AND will kick your asses (damn my eternal optimism)!
Does anyone have a problem with pushing the draft back 30 minutes? I get off work at 5, just don't want to pre draft my players and not get who I want. If it's too much for everyone I think I will only miss the first round. Thanks, let me know.
I think I can go back 30 minutes. I have somewhere to be around 7 or 8 (I think), so the longer we push it back, the less time I have. But I think 30 minutes should be OK.
My brother is interested. I just sent him an e-mail with all the details about the league sign-up. I guess we'll be fighting over Seaun Alexander. :)

i'm sorry, but it won't let me change it anymore. i tried, because i really don't care when we draft. the latest it will let me change it is 4:00PM. sorry.

I've got him in my other league and for the sake of convenience and the fact that my other team is looking pretty strong, I'm thinking about replicating it as much as possible. So, Sean is looking like a hot commodity.
That being said I will not pass up LaDainian or S. Jackson. :P
I'm interested to see how the draft pans out. I'm gonna try to work on a list of players that i want this morning.
http://sports.espn.go.com/fantasy/football/ffl/story?id=2984634
Here's a good link for anyone who hasn't played before.
We got 10. My brother is in as Bama37.
I'm looking at the team positions on Yahoo. It says that we should have 2 starting WR, then this W/R. Does that mean we get an optional 3rd receiver? I'm confused. Also, how many defensive players do we get? And what is BN? (It's early and I may be a little stupid.)
I can't be live at the draft (I hate this), but I have ranked my players. Is there anything else I need to do to have my players taken automatically?
Corey: W/R means you get your choice of an additional wideout or a Running back and i believe you get 2 defenses. These are entire defensive units though not individual players. Meaning you would take the Bears and get the whole teams defensive stats.
Bowl, I think that is all you do. I'm probably going to do the same thing. The league I play in is completely different than yahoo and I've only done this yahoo thing once but I'm pretty sure that is how we did it. I hope I'm right.
Oh and BN means bench. You'll draft more players than you'll actually start each week and you decide who plays and who rides the pine.
Thanks for the info!
Shit, I've already been picking defensive players for my list. I guess I better make a team decision.
Da Bears
theres isn't any defensive of players. just teams. unless you want them??
here's the positions
1 QB
2 RB
2 WR
1 TE
2 WR/RB
1 K
1 DEF

Thanks - I looked into it and it looks like your right - if you're not there it just picks from your list and fills in your positions. My pathetic reason for non-attendence is that the draft in my other money league was changed. I may be a loser, but I refuse to do 2 fantasy drafts at once. I've been playing in the other one for years and it's a keeper league and there is a decent amount of $ on the line - so it won out, allthough I prefer the people in here.
We haven't really discussed a prize for our a peaceful little MMJ league. My earlier suggestion was that all of the losers chip in for a couple of nice tickets to the winner's show of choice for the upcoming tour (assuming one will happen soon). Honor system of course.
i like that idea of the tickets, thats great!
One more day!!!
Bowl of soup, you can do two at once! We don't have to be the priority but i assured you that no one will down their nose at you. unless you just want to focus on the other
I can dig the tickets thang.
Okay here's the Cast of Characters (the first person listed will win the league, beyond that the list is in no particular order):
aMillionDreams = aMillionWHODEYS
Corey= Olwiggum = DirtySouthHeat
BowlofSoup = Bowl of Soup

I'll be good to go tomorrow at 6...
Has anyone done a Yahoo draft before? Will they send another email with a link or do we just sing into our Yahoo accounts?
I'm sure I'll figure it out, just so we all know.

From what I read on the site there, it said that I button will appear about an hour (i think) before the draft that says Enter Live Draft. So I guess you'll log on to your account. It also recommended that you enter the draft 10 mintues go time.

Thank you much, sounds good.
I will be drafting all the Giants and suffering for it.
;)
What determines the order of the draft?
I've never done this before so i may have more questions to come. A couple years ago i won the football poll at work (i actually tied for first, tie breaker points and all, i would've gotten a bit more cash), i like picking winners in games but i'm not sure about this fantasy thing.
My brother and I are new to this as well. (See my questions above)
There was a thing the other day that said that draft order will be picked randomly either 30 minutes or an hour before the draft. I can't remember which.
yeah you can show up a half an hour before, and the draft order is random. i'm getting pumped!!
Me too! I need to figure out some people to have on the bench. I haven't done that yet.
if you're going to be at the draft, you really don't have to pre-rank your players. while drafting, they have all the players ranked for you, and also ranked by position. so its pretty handy.
the best part of not having a favorite team, is i can love all of the teams.
teams i dig: Bangles, Pats (Man crush on Randy Moss), Chargers, Chiefs, and Cardinals, Eagles.
teams i hate to see win: Bears, Bucs, Jets, Giants, Colts, and Dolphins
super bowl teams (not final) Eagles vs Pats ---winner--- Pats 31-27

Thanks, but the cave that we hold the draft in has no internet, so I'll just have to hope that my rankings do me right. 9 losers + 1 winner + $20 per loser = $180 = some very nice tix for the winner and a guest. Just a thought. Someone with a artistic bent should also devise some sort of very lame trophey for the winner. Said trophey should make all involved question the artist's sexuality.
3 minutes until the order is revealed.
Does anyone see the draft button yet?
it's almost go time!
where exactly do I need to be. I'm sure I'll find I just don't want to miss the boat. i still haven't seen the order. is it up?
6th pick damn it!!!!!!!!
i just entered the live draft ;D
Me and my brother are in.
His name is Chris, btw.
Does my flag on the left mean I got first pick?
;D
QuoteDoes my flag on the left mean I got first pick?

I'm searching for Ryan Leaf, I don't see him....
that went quick!
good luck everyone! thanks again for letting LJ slip.
Quotegood luck everyone! thanks again for letting LJ slip.
yeah, how did that happen? oh yeah I took Rudi 3rd overall. :-?
let's hope LJ gets hurt and I become a genius.
That was fun. I wish the chat window would have been open longer. Talking shit is not as fun when you have to post and wait for a response on the board. :)
I got a few of the players that I really wanted and had to settle for a few, but I think I got some pretty good picks.
Also, my brother and I had to finish off our teams with some BAMA boys... just because that's how we roll. :)
I missed the draft but i got a lot of players i really wanted from the presettings-Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald etc. I also have a few i don't want at all. Is it possible to make trades?
QuoteI missed the draft but i got a lot of players i really wanted from the presettings-Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald etc. I also have a few i don't want at all. Is it possible to make trades?
yes there are trades, and there will be!!!
that was fun. i think i like my team.
True, looks like we're going head to head week 2. that should be fun. ;D
I ended up drafting every bengal available other than Chad Johnson (somebody snagged him early) and their defense (because i'm not a complete moron).
Looking at everybody's list at a glance I've got to say that Tripps' team is pretty impressive. it was cool to see everyone's strategy. i can't wait to see how it shakes out.
WHO DEY!!!
Yeah, and I gotta go against him the first week. :-/
I really wanted LT or LJ, but I was 8th pick and I knew there was no way that they'd still be around. I feel like I got pretty lucky with Addai on the 8th pick.
I was on the phone with Chris the whole time we were drafting. It was interesting to watch it all play out and see how quickly everyone was picking for the first few rounds.
my team has a lot of question marks. so right now i'm happy with it, but i'm also worry. well just have to let things play out.
the top 6 make the playoffs.
just to let everyone know, i pick up a lot of players. snipper!
I need to do some investigating. There were some little symbols beside some of my players today and I have no idea what they mean. I also couldn't find any sorta legend telling me what they mean.
I also tested out the "smack talk" button. :)

legend icon is towards the bottom, between the "submit changes" line and "Dashboard" line. oh and i saw the smack talk. trust me i don't have my hope up, everytime i do. i get my ass kicked the whole season.
If nothing else, we'll be a good match-up. I feel good about my team, but I don't have high hopes since this is my first time to play. You've got some strong RBs, so that will probably get you some points.
Words from the wise, know who is hurt and know when the bye weeks are.

if your player has a bye that week, it will say bye.
Sorry I couldn't be there. Like my team ok. Much luck to all.
Like I said during the draft, it should be an exicting season for 2nd place.

how'd your other draft go?
My other team is almost the same. I got Kitna(i'm a big fan) S.Alexander, McGahee, T.O, R. Williams and V. YOung, those are my good players. We do an auction draft. Each team has $100 bucks and you have to bid on the players. You have to manage your money so that you have at least $1 per player and you draft 15 players. So if you blow your wad on LT then you have to make sure you have enough money to buy the rest of the team otherwise your highest priced player is out for 6 weeks. It makes for a more involved draft. Plus we have guys from all over Florida and it gives us a chance to get together and kick it. We did it in Jacksonville two weeks ago.
Sounds like my other league. We do $200 auction style with keepers that you pay a 10% increase in salary to keep. I could've kept LT - but it would have cost me $110 with 8 other positions to draft. Couldn't do it. Can't believe that Ronald Curry was not picked, so I picked him up.
I have my money league draft on friday. its with a bunch of my high school buddies, we've been doing this for 6 years now, and the last two years i didn't make the playoffs. i over think shit. this year, i'm going in clear eyed, which could be a problem :-/

who's going to get more starts Kitna or Young?
I can't wait for our season and the real season to start!
WHO DEY!!!!
No shit. I'm gettin' antsy over here.
I think I'm gonna be going to the Titans/Colts game. I should find out tomorrow. I'm gonna be pulling for the Titans, but I want Addai to have a good game because he's my starter. :)
It's gonna be hard watching football like that this season.

Kitna all the way. I know I sound crazy but I think he is going to have a monster season. Their running game is in shambles, their defense is non-existent so they're going to have score a lot of points to stay in the games, their receiver corps are top five (seriously), and he has a year under him playing for M. Martz. Plus I think he's just dreamy.
Not really the last part but I do like him...
One week from today - Saints and Colts kick it off - its like christmas.
Chris and I are definitely going to the Titans/Colts game. Fuck yeah! My first NFL game.
QuoteOne week from today - Saints and Colts kick it off - its like christmas.
On a Thursday. In September.
;D
High school ball starts here tomorrow night in upstate New York, I'm looking forward to those games.
QuoteChris and I are definitely going to the Titans/Colts game. Fuck yeah! My first NFL game.
Nice! Have fun. Colts and Titans are two of my favorite non-bengal teams.
I had a chance to see UofL play Muarry St tonight, I'm not really sure why I didn't go. I can't fucking wait for football this year!
I didn't realize the Saints/Colts is gonna be Thursday. Sweet!
I really can't take this wait anymore.
i have my money league tomorrow, i'm really nervous. My team The Tennessee Fire, got a couple friends of mine, into the jacket. i lost my ass to them. which is better: getting the jacket fans? or losing my ass to the same people two years in a-row? i'd kill to make the playoffs, haven't in three years.
wish me good luck!! or i guess thats what the fat tire is for!!
also am i the only one thats happy about this thread getting a lot of love?
You're not alone, brother. It's pretty much the only thread that I check on this board anymore other than the NCAA thread. That will all change once there's some MMJ news, I guess..... but I couldn't care less about the "what's your favorite MMJ song?" threads and shit like that. ;D
yeah, I have a feeling we'll have a lot to talk about as the season goes on. This thread is already much larger than the regular NFL thread and a lot of those posts are about fantasy too. I say we keep the smack talk and deal making right here.
WHO DEY!!!!!
This'll be fun.
A little of subject here but I was talking shit about my buddy's team in my other league cuz that's what I do. And he called me out on it and challenged me that whoever has the worst record between the two of us has to pay the other guy's entry fee for life. That's $157 a team right now and we go higher each year (inflation's a bitch). He threw down the gauntlet on me. I had to take it because of all the shit talking I was doing. So, I have learned a lesson on talking too much shit. That being said I am looking forward to winning two different leagues this year.
I'm not getting my hopes up. I just want to have fun and whip a few of your asses along the way. I'm paired up against my brother in week 2, so that should be fun.
I am in a keeper league and have been for the about 16 years now, I would like to know who YOU guys would keep from my roster from last year. I can keep 2 players from any position and the same position.
I have already turned in my keepers to the commish, I guess I just need some positive reinforcement on my decision. I won total pts. and the super bowl last year.
QB PEYTON MANNING
R.B. EDGERRIN JAMES
R.B. MAURICE JONES DREW
R.B. CEDRIC BENSON
W.R. REGGIE WAYNE
W.R. DONALD DRIVER
T.E. TONY GONZALEZ
This is my favorite time of year.
I love sunday mornings, Scooby snacks, stat trackers and smack talk.
That's kind of a tough one. I would say Peyton obviously and considering the rest of the ages and injury factors I'd take a gamble on MJD??
It was a tough call but I kept MJD & Manning, I drafted Edge to my team in his rookie season and have kept him every year, last year was a huge letdown. I might have to put his jersey in the back of my closet next to my Rashaan Salaam and Curtis Enis jersey ( both christmas gifts ). I'm not taking credit for spending my money for those two slack asses. I tried to give them to a homeless guy and he said no way ( just kiddin ).
yesssssssssssssssss ;D
tonights the night!!! so nervous. ::)

Bill Simmon's top 50 list over on ESPN.
Good for a laugh if nothing else.
alright, i had my money league draft tonight. first, i love live draft parties, BUT jesus fucking christ, does it take forever. it took around 4 hours when it was all said and done. everyone was pretty wasted, only a few weren't (including me).
but now my team (the week 1 starters)...
QB - Carson Palmer (Man-crush)
WR -Joey Galloway (over 1,000 the last two years, now has a better Qb can't hurt)
WR - Plaxico Burress (hoping for 1,100 9 TD
RB - Larry Johnson (4th pick overall, solid)
RB - Cedric Benson (hoping for Thomas Jones like numbers)
/ - Cadillac Williams (better Qb, upgraded line, and can't be as bad as last year)
TE - Tony Gonzalez (you know what you're going to get with Gonzo)
K - Jeff Wilkins (love indoor kickers)
DEF - Philly D
Trying to work out a deal to get my boy Randy Moss. I have Vince Young and Matt Hasselback (trade bait). So hopefully i can trade one of them and get a solid number one receiver. a lot of hoping going on.
Hey Corey, I noticed both you and your bro wussed out on your bama picks. :P
hehehe... Yeah. Well, he still has Alexander.
Darby got signed to practice squad this week, so I had to drop him. Also, I needed to add another kicker in case Graham doesn't get to start this week, so it was the smart thing to do.
As far as Chris dropping Croyle, he said that he may pick him back up if Huard shits himself outta the starting job in the first few games. :)
soon there will be football!!
lets just make this the NFL thread ;D
Got on a fantasy league at work (total newbie to that shit)
Here's how it ended up: (on complete autopick-except for my defense, I was orginally drafted AZ's defense sheesh!!)
Delhomme, Jake QB CAR
Johnson, Rudi RB CIN
Parker, Willie RB PIT 6
Boldin, Anquan WR ARI
Johnson, Calvin WR DET
Williams, Roy WR DET
Smith, L.J. TE PHI
Colts, Indianapolis IND DST
Kaeding, Nate K SD
Pollard, Marcus TE SEA
Porter, Quinton QB HOU
Lewis, Jamal RB CLE
Taylor, Chester RB MIN
Bruce, Isaac WR STL
Jones, Brandon WR TEN
Smith, Hunter P IND
Y'all should go through the matchups and vote on which one will win in each pairing.
Good way to get some smack talk going...
;D
Best recognize, bitches!!! This is my league. Hope you all have fun competing for second place.
K, Red, whatever your name is, I hope you're ready to go down this week!
How's that for smack talk? ;)
Okay, I've double posted in both NFL threads, can you tell I'm excited!?! Three more hours, baby!
I've got two fantasy dogs in the fight tonight: Dallas Clark and the saints kicker. I hope the saints kick all field goals tonight! I've also got Anthony Gonzalez on the bench. I have a feeling I'll be playing him a lot this season but it's his first game in the league so I think I'll let him sit.
come on you pussies, too yellow to talk smack!?
Quotecome on you pussies, too yellow to talk smack!?
Oh, it's on once I get home from work.
So...
If we make substitutions, can we do them in the middle of the weekend, or do we have to wait until there are no games?
Example, if someone's RB gets injured in the first quarter, can they run in and change their line-up in the middle of a game?
I don't think so. As a matter of fact I think it might already be too late. I just tried to make anthony gonzalez a starter and it didn't let me.
Gotcha. I'm set. I was just curious.
I'm not sure what the deadline is....24 hours before first game of the week, something like that.
Something to keep in mind for Thanksgiving week, etc.
Right, your lineups are set in stone for the week once that deadline passes.
I shouldn't have let Ladell Betts go, i could've sworn it said he was on the practice squad??
QuoteI shouldn't have let Ladell Betts go, i could've sworn it said he was on the practice squad??
i know you shouldn't have. thank you!! i snatched him up. had too, i have portis. i was pissed when they drafted him for you, because i was going for him that round.
QuoteI'm not sure what the deadline is....24 hours before first game of the week, something like that.

i'm pretty sure you can switch your players up until 30mins to kickoff. of that players game. it could be 5mins, but i think its 30mins.
example: if you have one player on the sunday night game, you can switch him for a player playing the monday night game. just as long as its 30mins before kickoff. hope that makes sense.
good luck ya'll!!.....thats me talking shit >:( (gameface)
Is anyone using FOX Sports for their team? Has anyone been able to load the real time scoring? There must be some glich because last night it would not keep score. This sucks. Anyone else having this problem.
Peyton and Vinateri gave me a nice little head start for Sunday.
;D
Goddammit.
My receivers killed me in the early games. Lee Evans and Stallworth only mustered one catch each...Chris Chambers didn't do much against Washington.
I need the Giants to pick me up here with Jacobs and Shockey...hopefully LT has a good second half as well.
Does anyone remember the Yahoo league thing with head to head wins vs overall points? Who makes the playoffs, etc.
FUCK!
I learned my lesson about not watching who is playing who from week to week. I have Rivers as my starting QB. The Chargers had the fucking BEARS this week, while my back-up QB (Roethlisberger) was against the Browns. Why the fuck didn't I look at that sort of thing? That's a no-brainer.
Also, Terry Glenn is possibly out for the season, but other sources are saying that he's not. He's not one of my starters, but he's on the bench.
One more thing... my first string TE (Gonzalez) didn't have that great a game... and I'm sittin' here watching Witten (who is on my bench this week) run all over the Giants.
Oh, and there's that whole thing about how Gonzalez may not have played this year, but they didn't release that info until late yesterday. (That really sucks for him, btw)
Fuck, i should've started Tony Romo over Brees. Huge disaster there. Who would've thought?
wow k you had a great week. the vikings d was on point. AMD still has the whole freaking bengals offense.
K, i want the freak. i need the freak!! lets work out a trade??
i'm pretty sure i'm going to "pull-out" the W, so maybe now i'll talk some smack?...no probably not. i'm keeping my mouth shut, at least until week 6.
in my money league, i'm down 11. i still have Carson going, so this is going to be a great monday night football game.
Yeah, K's kicking ass, but I'm not out of this race yet. Plaxico and Marion Barber really helped me out last night. I need to the Bengals to have a big offensive game though. Let's go Bengals!
Who DEY!!!!

TEs are tricky. Take Eric Johnson on the Saints, for example. He had 8 or 9 catches for 56 yards or something like that against the Colts, which is a good game. But in fantasy, that's only five points, whereas a guy like Shockey or Gonzales, who get TD catches can rack up the points. So unless your TE is catching TDs, he's probably worthless, or worth only pocket change every game.

Oh man....Jacobs and Shockey killed me....and Lee Evans, Stallworth et al.
Hopefully B'more won't B'less tonight and everyone can rebound next week.
Bills and Eagles had tough losses in week one....

If you win AMD this could make you a fantasy guru/genius/god!!
Damn it K check this thread, so we can work out a deal for Moss. or does your silence mean everything?
I'll take that (and the soup's not done cookin' just yet), especially with getting nothing from MJD and a less than stellar outing from Westbrook. Just got hammered in my money league - we play 2 games a week and I lost them both. Nothing like your #2 RB taking it on the knee in the 2nd quarter to open the season. I also feel the pain for my fellow Lee Evans, Roy Williams, and Drew Brees owners - blah.

Chad's having himself a nice game so far. Between him and Palmer, you may be racking up some good points, aMD.

I've got tj, rudi, and carson. but no chad. I need tj to have two TDs or Rudi to have three to have a chance. not looking good so far. :-/
Is it just me, or are the Bengals doing a good job defensively tonight? Who woulda thunk it?
no shit. i wish i would've taken the bengals defense, 6 takeaways!
I don't think that'll be enough to beat K this week. oh well, i'll take the win for the bengals and I can get healthy against true next week, he should be a push over. :)
Corey, tell your brother I said thanks for the ass-whoopin, :-/ And I'll be lookin for him the second time around ;)
I may have fucked all of us by asking him to join. :)
I have to face him this weekend.

Does anyone know if the waivers are set. People have been picking up players all weekend and it's usually set up to where you can't make any transactions until Wednesday.
I know that Chris picked up Chris Brown after he ran all over the Jaguars on Sunday. I think he got him a couple of hours after the game.
How many drop/adds can we do?
I may have to kick Terry Glenn to the curb if he's not going to be playing for the next month.
EDIT: Kicked Glenn to the curb and picked up Muhsin Muhammad. Maybe that'll work out for me. I also made a couple of adjustments to my line-up for this coming week's games.
I had a bad, bad week all around.
LT was off his game.
Jacobs gets hurt, Eli scores more points than his brother, but now he's down for a while.
B'more defense is off, Lee Evans shits the bed, Stallworth was in Moss' shadow.
Hopefully this was just a one week disaster and I can come back.
There is usually a waiver wire in place. If you look on the league homepage is shows waiver positions. It's set up so you can't add or drop players during the games and usually a day or two after. You can try and make a move but it won't accept it until after the waiting period. Then it processes all the transactions based on waiver position. So number one would get his request first then number two and so on. I know a lot of sites have problems during the first week so I was just wondering if the transactions are going to be reversed or if the waivers aren't turned on. No big deal I'm just curious for the future.

I got RB Ward of the Giants a couple hours after that sunday night game. I feel good about that addition.
I'm thinking about trading one of my QB's (Brees, Romo) for possibly a running back. Anyone interested?
what's up fellows? first of all, thanx for letting me join your league! it's going to be fun kickin your ass. ;D this is my first year to play fantasy football, so i'm not still not used to the rules. you wanna see something scary? go through all the weeks and see which players have a bye. there are a couple of weeks where half of my team has a bye. i'm going to get my ass whooped those weeks. again thanx for letting me join your league, it's going to be a fun year!
hey easy e, your welcome on the ass-whoopin! ;D next time i'll just beat u by 20! ;)

I'd take Brees off your hands for one of my backs with the exception of Westbrook. I've got 4 other # 1's - Jones-Drew, Lamont Jordan, Edge, Tatum Bell.
yeah, yeah. got game, k!
I'm thinking about buying the stat tracker. it was pretty cool.
A couple of questions, I'm guessing the four teams with the best record get into the playoffs and total points is used as a tie-breaker, right? Second, on the league ranking page we all have a waiver number, i'm #7, what is that all about?

Check your fantasy page.
true, you know i have a bunch of rb's. cedric benson, larry johnson, laurence maroney, clinton portis/ladell betts and brandon jackson. just so happens i would love to take brees off you hands.
since k won't trade me my favorite player on my favorite team.
would love to trade a rb for a top notch receiver too.

I already proposed a trade with bowl of soup for edge. Arizona looks commited to the running game this year with Wisenhunt.

Seems fair to me.
Brees is low now with a bad first week, but they should be equal value over the course of the season.
Anyone who disagrees can voice their opinion.
i so badly wanna veto the trade. only because i'm selfish and wanna piece of the action.
but i didn't veto it, it does seem fair. although i think whoever gets brees is going to be happier in the long run. although true does have a qb to spare. so he's really only gaining.
questions answered: you can pick up players at anytime. also there isn't a max on pick ups, so its unlimited.
also, AMD statTracker is the shit isn't!?!. i had it last year only because i had 4 teams, so it was worth it. (bought for baseball) still not sure about this year yet. or you could just keep us updated, that would be cool.
this IS rivalry week, good luck to all. even you Bowl of Soup. who's going to stay undefeated?

Very even match-up if you ask me. I have a couple of your key players on another team (TO and LJ) so I'm conflicted. Trade makes sense to me - he needs RB's and I have depth there; I'm shaky at QB and he has an extra. I predict big bowls of gumbo.

i think what i'm addicted to the most is the live drafting.
i can't decide if i like my (other) team or not. i'm glad i've got chad on this team though. 8-)
AMD, we might could possibly work out a trade for Chad. Some kind of package deal. Say, Plax and Barber for Chad and maybe Norwood...

It's kinda like crack.
It is crack and, as I said before, it will ruin your life in a happy sort-of way. I have 4 teams - this one, another yahoo team I play in with some local friends, a large money keeper league where we all take it way too seriously and get in fights that would make 10 year-old girls blush, and a national challange that I've played in with a friend since 1993.
All told over the years I'm probably even as far as the money goes. One year I cleared about $1k as my friend and I finished high in the national challange and nearly won a national playoff challange. I honestly can say that it has changed the way I watch and enjoy football. I'm ostensivly a Steelers fan, but my fantasy dudes take priority and my pulse barely moved when we won the Super Bowl 2 years ago.
Best fantasy team name ever - "With Another Man's Testicles". Think about it.
Sitting on the couch with a laptop on your lap scrolling nervously through eveyone's scores. What do you mean like crack? It is a blast though.
Let me take a crack at that name.
Me: "Hey Bowl, who ya playing this week?"
Bowl: "Why, I'm playing With Another Man's Testicles."
Classic.
"With another man's testicles" is fucking genius.
I really hope it stays fun for me. I'd rather not be fighting people about it. Maybe I should stay away from the money leagues.
Going to the Titans/Colts game this weekend should be fun and interesting. I'm gonna be pulling for the Titans, but Addai is my starting RB. Also, my brother picked up Chris Brown this weekend, so that'll be fun for him.
Fantasy football is worse than crack, it probably causes more divorces than crack :).
I live with a football widow, she friggin hates fantasy football. She says " all you do is sit and watch that statracker all day, LOSER " . Sometimes I've chosen statracker over sex. I think I have a problem. NOT. GO BEARS

Anyone else read Tuesday Morning Quarterback on ESPN.com's page 2? I hate ESPN.com (and why did they ruin NFL.com while I'm at it), but Greg Eaterbrook's weekly essay on football, science fiction, and cheerleaders is the best example of the written word anywhere about anything.

its only a eight person league.
i might be interested in the basketbal league. will stattracker work in that league or would I have to pay more money? will there be a live draft? not into hockey. is there not any fantasy leagues for college sports?
I've really drank the fantasy cool aid. it's fun stuff. however, I have my first fantasy/real life conflict as dallas clark is a gameday decision and my back up is playing the bengals next week. not cool.
ok, i've got two player that are game time decisions. do i have to guess whether or not they're going to be able to play. Or can I wait till the last minute?

basketball, will be a online draft for sure. but however stattracker won't work. you can buy it again, which sucks. i don't believe there is a fantasy league for college.
also AMD whats the scores looking like, i assume i'm losing badly??
The score so far is 107-71. I hoping Hasselback has a shitty 2nd half! ;D

in the other league, i hope i did win...i'm going up against my brother.
in my money league. i won by one point!!!
yeah, I had a good week in both leagues, too bad my bengals can't make it happen. rudi got injured which sucks for me in fantasy and reality, hopefully it's not serious.
looks like so far the "top 3" fantasy players have all been busts. LT, Stephen Jackson, LJ are not living up to the hype, although LJ did slip in our draft.
looks like I've got corey next week. get ready to go down brother! you're still alive this week though, good luck!
Yeah, I'm hangin' in right now.
Next week should be fun! Let the shit-talkin' commence! :)
Part of my outcome for tonight rides on Drew Brees getting the ball to Colston quite a bit, but that will benefit Bowl of Soup as well since he has Brees. :(
Maybe Bush will have a good game and I can rack up some points that way.

Should be tight again - I can't take these down-to-the-wire Monday deals.
WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I pulled that one out last night. It went down exactly how I needed it to. I got 2 TDs outta Bush and not a lot of action out of Brees (on Bowl of Soup's team). He also had a few turnovers.
I was sweattin' that one.
Also, I'm prepared to have my ass handed to me by aMD this week. Bush and Colston have a bye this week and I don't have much else on the receiving end besides Steve Smith... and he only had one catch this week. I just hope they throw the ball to him more this coming week.
Lee Evans has one fantasy point in three weeks.
Son of a bitch.
God damned Bills.
anybody interested in bulger or julius jones?
CAPTAIN TRIPPS(TENNESSEE FIRE), would you be willing to trade hasselback or favre?
KNOTCAMELOOSE: would you be willing to trade eli manning?
i hope i hand your ass to ya, corey, but i have a feeling steve smith will have a better week without deangelo hall lined up across from him.
Also, looks like we have a matchup of the only unbeaten teams. good news, one undefeated team will lose. bad news, one will not.
btw, corey, that was a good win this week. I had stat tracker up while watching the game just to see how that one was going to turn out.
QuoteKNOTCAMELOOSE: would you be willing to trade eli manning?

Yeah, I'm sure glad I drafted Marion Barber, he's had a great year so far. You gotta think he'll be the feature back soon if he's not already.
i figured jones would get more carries than he has. w/ barber playing like he is, jones aint gonna get shit!
Yeah, I bought stat tracker around 5 PM or so yesterday because I couldn't take not knowing how I was doing. I didn't check it at all though until after the game was over last night. It was very stressful. :)
i'll possibly trade reggie wayne or anquan boldin for a good running back!
I just read that Deuce is out for the season. Bad news for the Saints (like they need any more bad news), but good news for my team. Maybe Bush will get more carries. I'm pretty sure those 2 TDs that he got for me would have gone to Deuce if he was in the game last night.
Also, with Romo throwing the ball like he has been*, there's no wonder why Jones hasn't touched the ball that much.
*Also good news for me since I have Witten at TE. :)

Nice win. Fantasy football is my eternal curse - 2 weeks in a row with very similar outcomes. 2nd in points but 1 and 2 - this happens to me every year. Can someone tell me what happened to Drew Brees? Maybe it's time to have that shit removed from your face Drew. Did I just go 3rd-grade insult? Yes I did and it felt good.
it doesn't help that their o-line sux!
hey corey, buy me stat tracker you piece of shit!
Hell no. I only got it 'cause J bought some shoes on clearance last week. :)
fuck u! >:(

knotcame loose proposed a trade in the "other league" for TJ and I think I might do it, ONLY because I already have him in our league. I just wanted to state that for the record. Who dey all the way!

Can someone tell me what happened to Drew Brees? Maybe it's time to have that shit removed from your face Drew. Did I just go 3rd-grade insult? Yes I did and it felt good.
That trade feels better each week :)
okay, so i accepted the trade. so how long does it take for it to go final, I may need to finalize my lineup early this week because of my sis's wedding.
AMD pleasure doing business with you! i think that it works for each of us. there's a 2 day waiting period. since i'm the commish, i could make it go through right now if that's better for yah. i'm sure no one will care if i do, but let me know.
Ooh, big match this week --- Who will be the last undefeated?!
i thought it was knotcameloose for some reason. enjoy tj, he's served me well so far.
yeah, could you go ahead and make that trade go through, I've got to finalize my lineup soon.

its up to league votes, so i can't make it go through i guess. but if your roster isn't finalized i can do it for you. that i can do. but the trade should go through tomorrow.

cool, I should be able to get to it, but if you see an empty slot on my roster sunday morning, could you fill it for me? Thanks! Hopefully this trade will work out for both of us.

yeah, he's a hell of a running back. i knew he was going to be great when bama played minnesota in a bowl game a few years ago. he and maroney had over 300 yards combined. :(

Well, I need the help at receiver...so unless you want to deal straight up...
receiver for receiver?
ive got nate burleson and sean mcdonald.
dammit! When will that trade go through!?! Hopefully my hotel will have wifi and i'll have time.
i just saw on espn that rudy will not play, i picked up kenny watson(his back up) just a second ago!
Quotei just saw on espn that rudy will not play, i picked up kenny watson(his back up) just a second ago!

would u be interested in trading cutler for bulger?
Quotewould u be interested in trading cutler for bulger?
Yeah right, clown! But throw in Kenny Watson and we can talk.
trade proposed, bama.
throw in anthony gonzalez and it's a deal!
it's not like your ever going to use cutler, except on palmers bye week.
it's a tough call on whether to start burress this week. he's going to play, but u don't know how effective he is going to be. i've got the same problem w/ calvin johnson! damn, bolden might not play either, this sux! :(
KNOTCAMELOOSE: check your fantasy page, i made u a trade proposal!
Quotethrow in anthony gonzalez and it's a deal!
sorry, bama. couldn't go through with that trade. I need cutler and gonzalez this week or next. it's really not worth kenny watson for me. plus, I don't want you getting too good. ;)
AMILLIONWHODEYS: if i see that calvin johnson or anquan boldin will play this week, i will make that trade w/ u(bulger and watson for cutler). if one of them is going to be out, then i will need watson in my line up. the only thing is, it might be to late, cause it takes 48 hrs for trade to go through. they usually don't have updates till the afternoon and by that time it would be to late for the trade to go through so they could be in this weeks line up.

i put gonzalez in there, cause boldin and calvin johnson may not play. if one of them can't, i would have needed gonzalez in my starting line up!
sorry we couldn't do business. good luck this week. I'm going to beat the living shit out of your brother! ;)
if rudi is out next week, do u still want to make that trade?
nah, i'm out. hopefully I can survive this week. I don't want to wreck the rest of my season because I'm freaking out this week. maybe we can do some business down the line.
yep, one or two injuries can fuck your whole season up! that's one of the reasons fantasy football is a crap shoot!
i've got wifi! So it's all-good. im worried about this week with all my injuries. oh well, at least I'm just facing corey. ;)
Oh shit. That was low..... but it was a good one.
I gonna laugh my ass off if I beat you, but I ain't countin' on it.
;D
Good news for me:
Sep 27 As he's prone to do from time to time, Smith chose not to speak to reporters after practice on Thursday, and told one reporter he's done talking for the year, the Gaston Gazette reports.
Recommendation: Smith is a high-energy player who plays angry much of the time, and he's apparently pretty ticked off about something right now. He seems to play better with a chip on his shoulder, which would be bad news for the Buccaneers this weekend.
Kaley, you're slipping in your old age. you started two players who aren't playing this week. If you end up winning I'll shit a brick. too early to say anything about anyone else's teams, except you all suck! ;)
Who is Kaley?
At least Muhammed finally got me some points. Grossman never threw him the damn ball, so maybe he'll get some catches now that Grossman isn't starting.
I'm already down by 20 and you don't have most of your team playing until Monday night. :(
I believe Kaley is K/Red/bigfoot's real name.
btw, i'm thinking the same about berrinan for the bears he's already surpassed his fantasy points for the year and he doesn't even have a TD. Good thing because I had to start him in both of my leagues this week.
QuoteI believe Kaley is K/Red/bigfoot's real name.
Gotcha. I'm still not up on people's real names.
Take it easy on me this week, chief. ;)
QuoteQuoteI believe Kaley is K/Red/bigfoot's real name.
Gotcha. I'm still not up on people's real names.

Most of your players are playing at 4, so we'll see how it all plays out. I think my streak of two weeks in a row as the player of the week is over, I just want to beat your sorry ass. ;)
btw, since when does julius jones get the ball of the 1 yard line!?
question: why does a punt return count against my defense but when devin hester runs back a punt for a td he gets no fantasy points!? That's just dumb!
That is fucked up. That man can play some damn football.
Also, I wish there was another game coming on at 3. I'm getting the Colts/Broncos in my area which is good 'cause I keep keep an eye on Addai, but I'd like to be able to watch another game.
Damnit, I really want to get the NFL Sunday ticket next year.
man, this is painful. i don't think this is my week, but with cincy playing tomorrow it may come down to the wire.
I'm really hoping Rivers pulls through for me this week. I put him back in over Roethlisberger, and I'm starting to think that may have been a bad idea. Also, maybe he'll get the ball to Vincent Jackson some. Doesn't look like that happened much in the first half.
And... I was hoping to have a better game from Steve Smith, but that hasn't happened yet either. Maybe my players can pick it up in the 2nd half. I've had a pretty good game out of Addai up until halftime.
yeah, addai's killing me, I'm facing him in both leagues. At least he didn't get the call on the one and they let peyton run it in. that helps.
btw... K, i see you're online, what were you thinking starting two players who had byes?
Quotebtw... K, i see you're online, what were you thinking starting two players who had byes?

next question, is there a chance to get palmer and tj?

McNabb is either too old, injured, or both. A young healthy McNabb would not get sacked twelve times with Notre Dame's O-line. sorry, not taking that bait. unless you want Cadillac Williams.
QuoteI added Terry Glenn in hopes that he'll return soon and be a big part of this dynamic cowboys offense.
You can thank me for that if he ends up having a good season when he comes back. I dropped him when it looked like he was gonna be out for a month or so. I kinda regret doing that now.
ETWVIGO(EASY E): make me an offer for mcnabb. you'll have to go to week 5 on my page cause my roster has changed. my qb's are jason campbell and daunte culpepper.

I accepted the trade, Dylan. I may regret it later, especially since Berrian/the Bears are facing the Packers next weekend and they've been playing good defense... but fuck it, I'm down for it. Gotta take the chance.
So... the rest of y'all.... take Colston off of my possible trade list. I'm still thinking about letting Tony Gonzalez go if any of you want him.
Also, if you want to go QB for QB, I'm thinking about letting Phillip Rivers go.
wow,bigfoot is only one point behind. if brady completes a pass he will win. the only thing is they will probally just run to try and run the clock out.
damn, if bigfoot would have put 2 players in for mccallister and lendale white who were out, he would have won.

So the BadMotherfuckers are the only undefeated team.

pretty low scoring, injury-filled weekend all around. if i can survive the next part of the season, I have a good feeling about my team.
also, walt, you can give up on carson and TJ, I'm holding onto them unless I have another catastrophic injury soon. sorry.

accepted, i guess i'll take it. but i think we both know my heart is with another.
i'm pretty happy with my team now, but i still would like a franchise qb. i mean hasselback is doing good and farve is doing well, but i would like a very solid qb. l

Ha, he'll be on my starting roster even if he's injured. He's like my safety blanket if I was 2 years old.
i'm ready for ya K, i made three trades this week. i'm loving my roster right now, except i need a good qb. moss and brady scare the hell out of me, but that's it on your roster. good luck, it should be a good matchup! :)
aMD, our trade is final. I can go ahead and change my lineup around for the rest of the week.
Sonofabitch! I'm trying to add a player. I was sure I went through all the steps, but the player isn't showing up on my roster. I'm trying to add them again, but the page isn't cooperating with me.
Does anyone else have problems with clicking on something, then it takes forever for it to process? It did this to me last week as well.
I'm afraid this may be the week my wheels fall off. I've got a lot of bye's and a couple backups. Although a couple of key injuries and my team will be golden!!
I finally got it to work. Nevermind.
i knew I'd end up liking seldon young, I've got em in both leagues 8-) Good thing travis henry is a stones malone!
Still waiting for the other trade to go through.
Well, shit. Addai is a gametime decision tomorrow and Roethlisberger is questionable. I was gonna start Ben again because Rivers hasn't been producing numbers lately. FUCK. I can't decide if I should go ahead and bench them or not.
I hate this shit sometimes. :)
big ben is going to play! i don't know yet on addai. same thing happened to me last week w/ c. johnson, i started him and he didn't play. i'm in the same sitiuation this week!
i don't understand travis henry's situation. he failed a drug test, he's suspended for a year, he's injured, and most websites are saying he's a game time decision. wtf? does suspension usually mean that you don't play!?!
he's not suspended...yet. he's appealing it in a federal court. it will take about a month for the suspension to take place...if he loses.
Quotehe's not suspended...yet. he's appealing it in a federal court. it will take about a month for the suspension to take place...if he loses.

as soon as i heard the news, i went to pick up young. then i found out you had him. I just couldn't understand why you had him, and i still don't. its almost like you knew that was going to happen. or maybe you've been supplying him with the sticky icky?? i'm on to your game AMD. i'm watching you ;)
seldin, selvon, who cares. i picked him up a couple weeks ago because I had no one else to pick up so I thought if henry gets hurt his back up will do awesome because any RB can rush for 1000+ yards in Denver. looks like he might pay off. i don't think players should be suspended for weed but i wish they'd go ahead and pull henry.
good luck to everyone, I didn't think I'd have a chance during the bengals' by week, but i don't feel too bad about my chances.
btw, do you all have a site/sites you go to to get information on gametime decisions as far as injuries or for stats and stuff? so far I've just kinda been guessing about who's going to start or not.
I'd like to know as well. This decision about Addai is killing me because I only have 1 backup RB right now and he didn't do worth a shit last week.
QuoteI'd like to know as well. This decision about Addai is killing me because I only have 1 backup RB right now and he didn't do worth a shit last week.
I've got his backup in the"other" league, so I'd like to know too. I would've liked to started Dallas clark last week if I knew he was going to start and score 2 TDs!
k/kaley/red/bigfoot didn't fill one of his positions and started marvin harrison, who i'm pretty sure is hurt this week. He was 3-0 and then gave up I guess. :-/ who knows randy moss and tom brady could still win it for him
Fuck a buncha gametime decisions. Addai isn't playing either and I still had him in.
Note to self: If someone is a gametime decision, go ahead and bench their ass just in case.
SHIT.
Yeah, I did the same thing in our second league.
Luckily I have Brady and the Steelers pitched a shutout, so I think I can make it up.
QuoteFuck a buncha gametime decisions. Addai isn't playing either and I still had him in.

well, on the other hand I didn't start kenton keith (in the other league) and he has two TDs!! >:(
looks like it's gonna be close for me in both leagues.
Yeah, the Steelers made up some points for me as well. That was nice.
And I'll be god-damned if I don't have the worst luck about picking which QB to start. Since I had Rivers on the bench, of course he's having a fantastic game throwing the ball all over the field with several TDs.
i thought you were going to start rivers. i had a feeling the chargers were going to bounce back this week, mainly because I have a lot of broncos. i've got to stop staring at statracker and wishing i would have started keith!
Well, Rivers has been pretty inconsistent and, on the weeks that he's been poor, Roethlisberger has had better fantasy points... so I've struggled with this decision every week. And every week I feel like it's bit me on the ass.
[size=16]Look who's in first place! [/size] 8-) :P
I didn't think that was going to happen on the bengals bye week! My team in the other league doesn't look so hot, but it's early yet and I would've won if i had started kenton keith. >:( oh well, you live you learn.
Thanks to True for handing Jon T. his first loss.
I've got bama next week, which may complicate the trade we were talking about making. :-/
We've got a Lee Evans vs. Witten battle in the first league tonight.
Lee needs to make up four points to tie.
It's a long shot, but we'll see how he does against the Cowboys secondary.

[size=10]WOW WAS THAT STUPID!![/size]
QuoteWe've got a Lee Evans vs. Witten battle in the first league tonight.
Should be fun to watch. I'm pretty sure Witten's gonna come out on top. Go me!
Fuck you, Chris, for picking up the Titans defense! :)
wow, true. you've really turned it on since I kicked your sorry ass. player of the week two weeks in a row. probably three in a row since you have red who has four empty slots this week and doesn't seem to be filling any empty slots these days.
there's a lot of people sitting at 3-2. Should we call this separation sunday?
i hope rudi's back this week.

amd, i did have the second highest point total that week that you beat me, which is pretty good except you had the highest. i put a reminder in for red to fill in his empty slots for this week. red, you out there??
hey walt, do you know that vick's dog pound guy from the other league? how about austriker's? dude's got 5 QBs including Mike Vick! :o other duder's kicking our asses, though he didn't quite have my number 8-)

;)
RED, where are you? You were kicking our asses. you thinking you're team's good enough to win without you?

Crucial juncture in the season. Can the mediocre teams make a push? Can the top dogs hold on? We will see.
That's very Sportscenter of you to say.
:D
QuoteRED, where are you? You were kicking our asses. you thinking you're team's good enough to win without you?
I forgot to make changes last week, and it cost me a win. I thought I'd kick mucho ass this week, made a few a shifts, to no avail.
:-/

vicks dogs is a buddy. he called me up yesterday saying we played. then i said, how'd you know that you didn't even do your roster. i hate losing to people who don't do their roster.
austriker is my roommate.
do you all fight dogs? what's with all the vick love? and the 5 qbs? anyway, make sure they know i hate them! ;)
that's right, i have brodie croyle and kenneth darby on my team! brodie's gonna get his first start and darby is second string(now that pittman went down for the year). championship!!! he he!!! :)
okay "great fantasy minds" i have a deal thats working out in my "money" league.
i'm getting rid of Carson Palmer, Larry Johnson, and Eagles D. i would be getting Micheal Turner, LT, and Javon Walker??
i will be replacing Carson with either Hasselback or Young. both had a bad game last week, but Carson really hasn't done much since week 2. so i'm not losing too much at QB. even though i love Carson, AMD knows that, so its going to hard.
at first glance I thought take it, but now that i think it over you'll be giving up two consistent producers for one star, his backup, and a so-so player in Javon, who could be more productive but a) he's injured b) his team is not looking good this year.
i'm w/ AMD on this. plus both turner and l.t. being on the same team will not work every week.
what the hell. nobody's picked up vinny testeverde? he's only 78! :)
AMD: i'm in the same position as you were last week. i've got 4 starters on bye weeks. it sux, don't wup my ass too hard!
QuoteAMD: i'm in the same position as you were last week. i've got 4 starters on bye weeks. it sux, don't wup my ass too hard!
your brother said the same thing before I kicked his ass. no mercy! ;D
Quotei'm w/ AMD on this. plus both turner and l.t. being on the same team will not work every week.
well, i did it anyways. i'm not going to start turner. but hopefully LT goes back to scoring 2-3td's a week.

good luck walt, but i hope you live to regret trade when carson goes back to throwing 3-4 tds a week. ;D
[size=16]Let separation sunday commence.[/size]
Today we separate the men from the boys.
In the "other league" things are a little more muddled up or I guess you could say there is more parody. oh, and i'm taking on walt. we both desperately need a win this week. you're goin down, brother!
Parody or parity?
Either way, I think you have a point.
;D
If I drop and add a player right now, can I use the player that I added in today's game?
QuoteParody or parity?
Either way, I think you have a point.
;D
oops, sometimes spell check don't work. (<-- example)
corey, I think you can use the player as long as he's not on waivers. i've never triied it but that's how I understand it.
Edit: that should be tried, not triied. I apparently have to watch myself in the fantasy thread now.
Hmmm. How do I know if the player that I want is on waivers?
look at what it says as the player's owner.
FA = Free agent
W = on waivers
Cool. Thanks for the info. Looks like it worked.
Quote
Edit: that should be tried, not triied. I apparently have to watch myself in the fantasy thread now.
I'll talk trash on spelling any day.
:D
Why did I bench Stallworth?
:(
Good thing I have Brady and Welker in the second league. That might be enough points to win in itself.
Looks like LT got back to his scoring ways.
I have four Giants on the Fans of league team...they need a big night for me tomorrow.
I'm having a horrible, horrible day. No one's putting up any numbers for me. This is sad.
I kicked some butt in the Fans of league...
and I still have Eli, Jacobs, Shockey and Tynes to score for me tonight.
Even with Brady and Welker, I got whooped in the Pranksters league...
>:(
If Micheal Jenkins scores me 5 pts. I get my first W ;D
Watch out folks, I'm heating up!
It's real close for me in both leagues, both games will be decided to tonight. I need Atlanta to beat the shit out of the Giants and for Eli to have a bad game but I don't know how likely that is.
I had a terrible week. Most of the teams my players are on lost so that doesn't help.

damn! i thought i was going to lose in the "other" league for sure. god bless monday night football, should be fun. as for the jacket league, well...yeah... :'(
QuoteI had a terrible week. Most of the teams my players are on lost so that doesn't help.
Colts, others were on byes.
That explains part of the down week for folks.
I lost by one flippin point! Boy, Joey Harrington can really take a sack can't he? That was a painful loss. Good show, bama. I lost by only a few points in the other league too. I'm currently in last place in that league. :-[ Oh well, still holding on to second in ours. I hope Rudi starts getting more carries, I started him in both leagues and he got 0 fantasy points. >:(
I managed to pull it out by 2 points... but still only scored 65 total. So I slipped from 3rd to 4th place. :(
I also have 3-4 players on byes this coming week, so I'm expecting to get my ass whipped.
EDIT: Oh yeah, I'm definitely going down. I'm playing the Bad Motherfuckers. That wouldn't be good news even if I had my full starting line-up.
And you know this, maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan. ;D
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v168/olwiggum/images.jpg)
trades anyone? anybody want chicago's D? sure, theyre not too great this year, but they seem to be doing alright fantasy wise (except this past sunday. i'll entertain any other possibilities.
is it harder to go 14-0 or 0-14? :-/
Bowl of Soup and I collide in the cellar matchup this week :-?
Brady rolls, Giants look good.
Hopefully another good week for me.
Colts will face a challenge tomorrow night though.
So if I looked at the roster correctly, Badmotherfuckers doesn't have any more players tonight or tomorrow.... and I've royally whipped some ass. I still have Addai tomorrow night as well.
HOT DAMN!
son of BITCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Oh, snap!
AND.... I still have Addai tomorrow night.
Yep, I have Manning and Vinateri against Dallas Clark in the fans league tonight, down 10 points. Hopefully Peyton's throwing to Wayne all night.
;D
In the Pranksters league, I have Addai, Wayne and Clark down by 6 with no monday nighters on the other squad.
Looking good tonight. Hopefully Jags aren't as good as we thought they were.
Yup, Kitna and Williams shit the bed again this week. Nice win Corey.
Bironas WTF ?!?!?!?
Yeah, no shit. I didn't see that one coming. I'm sure my wife was tired of me walking around going "I'm gonna get my ass kicked in Fantasy Football this weekend".
I had a pretty even day all around. Several players performed much better than I expected.
QuoteYup, Kitna and Williams shit the bed again this week. Nice win Corey.

red doesn't even change his players who are deactivated and still gets all those points. Red, you could be in first place in this league if you would pay attention more.
Quotered doesn't even change his players who are deactivated and still gets all those points. Red, you could be in first place in this league if you would pay attention more.
all he's gotta do is start brady and moss every week and he's sitting pretty. again, both of my games come down to monday and i wouldn't be surprised if I lose them both again, just like last week. Rudi has GOT to get healthy.
Good win Corey.
Quoteis it harder to go 14-0 or 0-14? :-/
Bowl of Soup and I collide in the cellar matchup this week :-?
How'd you like that? It's hard to be this bad. I have no fantasy football knowledge, the game has passed me by. I'm like Tom Landry the last few years in Dallas. I hate football: USF lost after all of my smack, Maryland lost (not that this is an unusual event), the Steelers lost, and all 4 of my fantasy teams went down to crushing defeats. I am the dark cloud.
I had no fantasy knowledge until this year and I'm doing pretty well. 8-)
Bama, trade offered
I hit a losing streak after hitting number one, the same week rudi and cadillac got hurt. I still like my team but it's not looking as good as it was a few weeks ago.
Holy shit. Ronnie Brown is out for the season! that's two RBs out for the season and a third who's out indefinitely and these are big number ones: Cadilac Williams, Ronnie Brown, and Rudi Johnson. I'm barely going to be able to field a team next week. Looks like you might get you second win, EasyE! Fuck me!
Yeah, I heard about that today. This season has been fucking brutal.
AMD, i guess you see why i dropped santana moss
bowl of soup and jacketeers i made u guys a trade offer!
Me and bigfoot this week. Wonder if I can pull off another upset.
EDIT: Fuck! Both of of TEs have a bye this week. The only reason I kept Tony Gonzalez around was to have him when Witten has a bye.
Shit.
Anybody wanna trade TEs? If not, I'm gonna drop him tonight or tomorrow.
EDIT AGAIN: Nevermind. Got a trade offer already from Bama.
this is gonna be a rough week, lots of players on bye's. i had Garrad set as my back up then he gets injured the week before i was going to start him
Good match Bama.
Beat me by three.
Lee Evans finally got going...didn't get the usual from Shockey and that was the difference.
Also, Stallworth didn't get much in that 52 point whuppin.
How hard would that suck if I lost by one point two weeks in a row? I've gotta bad feeling about this.
i thought i pretty much had it in the bag up 19 points w/ about 4 min left to play. i went to check it just one minute later and saw lee evans scored on a 85 yard touch down(14 points) and started sweatin. luckily i pulled it out. good game though!
somebody's in trouble tonight!
Back on top after a couple of mistakes a few weeks ago!
I'm are lucky to be in second place still. Thanks goodness travis henry didn't start last night. I have Bad motherfuckers and K the next two weeks. I'll be happy if I win one of those.
trade offered, bama. it may look familiar. ;)
give me some time on that! this is a tough one, i'll let u know sometime in the morning!
cutler's looking tough. I'm just saying...
colston actually earned his keep this week. also, i rolled the dice on starting ted ginn basically because I had no better move and he gets his first career td. i needed some luck after that one point loss the week before.
Sorry bama, Marshawn's my boy! ;D
I was glad to see Colston FINALLY start producing... but I guess some of that has to do with Brees. You're welcome aMD. ;D
bama - i like the trade. i feel NOW my roster is complete. i'm built for the playoffs...thats if i make it. 6th right now.
QuoteSorry bama, Marshawn's my boy! ;D
i thought moss was your boy?? you can't have two boys. does that mean trade rumors of randy moss leaving your squad??
QuoteI was glad to see Colston FINALLY start producing... but I guess some of that has to do with Brees. You're welcome aMD. ;D
Thanks indeed. I hope he continues to produce.
I realized yesterday that I have K next week, the Patroits bye week. How much you all wanna bet he starts them anyway and he still beats me?! Despite two tough losses and two devastating injuries I still fell pretty good about my team.
You lucky bastard! I guess their bye week was bound to happen sooner or later. :)
corey, u coming over to watch the game sat.? by the way, deshawn wynn is out for the year if u didn't know!
Quotebama - i like the trade. i feel NOW my roster is complete. i'm built for the playoffs...thats if i make it. 6th right now.
u have have got a hell of a roster, especially if shaun alexander gets it going. he should have a good game this week, but he should have had one the past couple of games and stunk it up. them losing branch has hurt him, cause everybody is putting 8 men in the box to stop him!
i didn't realize only 4 make the playoffs. i thought top 6 did. my team better start putting up numbers!!!!!!!

you should consider it.
I didn't know Wynn was out for the year. I think I checked all the newest updates this morning. Did they just announce it? Shit.
I don't think I want to let Steve Smith go, btw.
I should be able to come over for the AL-LSU game.
Looks like I'm in need of another RB. Anybody got one they want to trade? Or drop and let me pick up? :)
come on, bama. how far do you think jason campbell can take ya?
i picked up garcia off waivers, otherwise i would have done it. i will keep it in mind though. man, bulger fucking killed me(or the 4 staring o-lineman that were injured). i was thinking yesterday about the draft and i was picking my back up qb. i had a choice of losman, romo, and a couple others. i chose losman(throwing up in mouth). ya'll can't laugh too hard though he slipped through ya'lls hands too! man am i fucking sick to my stomach! uggh! :'(
I need another RB, y'all. Somebody make me an offer. Anybody want Phillip Rivers? I'll probably let him go since Pittsburgh has already had their bye week and I have Big Ben.

How bout Ryan Grant for Witten?
Ha! You must be outside your mind. ;D
aMD, any chance you'll trade Barber?
:P Any chance of you coming off him.
Hm.... I don't know. He's done very well for me this year. I just traded Gonzalez to my brother, so I would have Cooley in the TE position if I trade Witten.
I'll trade you Witten and Rivers for Peterson. 8-)
I don't need a qb. what about bush and witten
Oooooh. I'll have to think about that. I keep waiting on Bush to have a breakout game. He is definitely getting better as the season progresses. Hmmm...
Witten for McGahee, maybe?
I still don't know how I feel about letting him go.
Nah. I like Mcgahee. Not that I don't like Witten. THink about the other one though. I'll do that one right now. WEll not now cuz I'm about to leave work but I'll check later.
If I let go of Witten, I don't think I can let go of Bush as well. I'd let go of Witten/V. Jackson or Witten/A. Davis.
hey corey. i'm in the same boat as you. i need a RB and I have an extra good QB. so that means I'm not getting rid of barber. sorry.
Bama, trade me one of your newly aquired RBs for cutler. come on! I need RBs!
gotcha, dylan.
I hear ya Corey. If you change your mind holler. I could throw in a mid level guy like J. Norwood if that would sweeten the deal. Otherwise no biggie.
(http://www.tvrobot.com/images/flava-flav-knicks.jpg)
I need the Steel curtain to make up 5 points on Mason tonight.
I think I'm good.
Marshawn Lynch had a heck of a week - as did Lee Evans.
How bout dem Bills?
Dirty South Heat,
Thanks for not taking Adrian Peterson off my hands last week. I owe you one.
xoxo
Bad Motherfuckers
hahahaha....
I got some nice points off of Reggie, so I was pretty happy. But you got more points from Adrian than I got from Bush and Witten combined. Damn.
Yeah Bush has turned into a nice surprise this year. It's hard to believe the Saints have turned it around as well as they have. They're a complete different team than they were a month ago.
No doubt. I think Brees had damn-near 300 yards passing in the first HALF. It also makes me sad that I let Colston go to aMD a few weeks ago.
I still need another RB, somebody!
110 points and i could've done so much better if i would've started bobby engrem and ahman green. i do still have hines ward and heath miller tonight.
Quote
I still need another RB, somebody!
shaun alexander???? you can have him

TRADE OFFER: my team for your team minus s. alexander. seriously, i love your team. i was sweatin the whole day. every time i turned around there was a super star. FUCK T.O., i was up the whole day till his sorry ass went off. good game though, people better hope you don't make playoffs.

in my money league i need holmes to get some points. so this is going to be a tough game to watch. we should have done our trade next week. that hurt, and probably cost me the W although with parker and holmes yet to play, i've already started to accept the lose. gonna be fun though.
alexander is going to be the odd man out. burress was on a bye this week, so i have to sit one player i don't want to. it will just come down to match-ups. i would love to do a two for one deal for LT or AP or Moss, but i'll look at all offers.
AMD - i offered you a trade. are you ready to let go??
KCL - i offered you a trade. are you ready to let go??
i know you both have been say no, but maybe???
I noticed the cancelled trade offer. I could part with Foster, but I don't think I want to let the Steelers go.
shit! I got a good ole fashion ass-kicking thanks to Jon T and Adrian Peterson! Hopefully, I can get back on track the second half of the season. I've got a couple players getting healthy and one coming off suspension.
We'll see how big and bad K is without Moss and Brady on the bench next!
Sorry, Walt, still not giving up on them. I know the Bengals season is over but those two should continue to produce some good fantasy stats. I thought you said you like your team, anyway.
he's like me, he's never satisfied!
Chris, trade accepted.
hey chris, you can have cutler. his leg's not broken but I'm done with them.
i got to find somebody for next week, garcia has a bye week along w/ 4 other starters!

I'll take a Steelers win over a fantasy loss anyday.
good game walt, i didn't think i was going to pull it out. i can think the ravens back up corner backs for this win. your team has taken a beating lately. larry johnson is going to be out for 3 weeks, alexander sux, looks like marvin harrison is not going to be 100% healthy the rest of the year. good luck to ya the rest of the way!
now that LJ is hurt, i have to start shaun. that's ok i guess?? i have reggie wayne, so hopefully with marv banged up reggie can do some things.
this sucks. i don't see the playoffs happening, but there's 5 weeks to go.
Hey. Seriously. I need all of you to [size=24]RECOGNIZE!!!!!!!![/size]
yeah yea, corey. you da man. we'll see how long it lasts.
i finally lost my point lead... to three different people. oh well, I think I can finish strong.
Thanks for the acknowledgment. ;D
I don't expect it to last long, so I want people to bow down while I'm still on top.
looking for a RB (my weakest position all season) willing to part with some WR's possibly (greg jennings is off limits)
With Chris Henry returning from suspension and rudi coming off injury (fingers crossed on that one) I'm starting 4 Bengals. Too bad they're playing Baltimore, but oh well, I'm prepared to go down with the ship. ;D
EDIT: Now that I see Travis Henry is inactive I'm starting Selvin Young over Rudi since he's still getting healthy and facing the Baltimore defense.
fuckin pathetic! >:(
Quotefuckin pathetic! >:(
hey, you beat bigfoot(K)!
four weeks left. this should get interesting.
Quotefuckin pathetic! >:(
thanks for helpin me get just my second W ;)
congrats eazy, your welcome! fuck a losman!
three of the top four went down! (hopefully)...this is working out. playoffs or bust!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah,
my players had piss-poor weeks. Damn near all of 'em.
Oh well. At least I was on top for a week. :)
bad motherfucker, bowl of soup, jacketeers: trade offer!
adrian peterson is out for at least a week. they jinxed him, they were just talking about how he was going to get hurt because the way he runs.
Weird week in fantasy.
Peyton was horrible...
Brady and the Pats were off.
Phil Rivers actually went for negative 1!
Burress didn't get much.
Steelers/Ravens defenses not so great.
Hopefully Frank Gore gets less than 9 tonight in the Pranksters league.
Frank Gore, I owe you, buddy.
;D
Bama,
Appreciate the value of that trade...but.
Looks like Big Ben is back to throwing...less TDs for Parker.
Also, since there's no QB in Carolina, Smith isn't that much of a value.
There might be more points there with those two on average, but LT always has that potential to break a 30 point game any week.
Lemme think some more.
We only have through Friday the 16th to complete trades. Just a heads-up.
Bowl of Soup, consider my trade please.... since you may not make the playoffs. 8-)
Rejected.
Damn.
How 'bout those 2 players for Jones-Drew?
knotcameloose: i'll add mason or calvin johnson along w/ the other two!
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
trade accepted! if steve smith starts putting up his normal numbers, you got one hell of a deal! pleasure doing business w/ ya, good luck!
I'm gonna vote against that trade.
Just kidding. That would be a dick move. Why do they even offer that feature?
QuoteI'm gonna vote against that trade.

;D
I mean, Smith and Parker have more points than LT combined, so adding Calvin in the mix too...taking over for some of my garbage guys...I should pull out ahead in the long run.
I just don't see the Bolts getting it together this year.
yea, u got a damn good trade, especially if u are going to start c. johnson. i only started him if a couple of my starters had byes. the way i looked at from my end of the deal was really all i gave up was parker and smith cause i didn't use johnson that much.
if anybody wants to trade someone on their team post it, so maybe it'll be easier to make trades.
wow, i can't help but be a little upset about this trade. for weeks now i've been asking for LT. i would have giving a way better deal. you should've said you were looking at offers.
I can assure all of these trades are in vain. ;)
we're now on week 11, its time to say that Steve Smith isn't going to do anything. he has no qb to throw him the ball. he has had one amazing week, but i really can't think of anything else he has done.

Alright, then get everyone to veto it and offer me something other than these bush league offers I've been getting all year.
I can't even tell who's who anymore since y'all keep changing your names and that list is out of date.

good luck to you both
i don't know if i like that trade, bama. maybe if you had parker still. i also would like to have fitzgerald this week going against the bengals defense.
that's cool, i don't blame u! if u change your mind, let me know!
QuoteBowl of Soup, consider my trade please.... since you may not make the playoffs. 8-)
Don't bet on it. 3 wins in a row and finally scoring like I should, I'm only 2 games out after starting 1 - 6. Still a longshot, but a Rocky-esque run is not beyond the soup. And I won't be raped, there nothing worse in fantasy football than the guy who quits and gives his team away.

Amen.
I like your spirit.
I'd still like for you to consider it though. :)
QuoteI'm gonna vote against that trade.
Just kidding. That would be a dick move. Why do they even offer that feature?
they do it so people won't dump their team and try to team up with someone else for some of the prize money. some people in my work league did that a couple of years ago, traded their two or three good players for 20 to 30% of that person's winnings if they won. that being said my team sucks so bad i don't think anyones wants any of my dudes :-/
easy: what do u think about that trade? i saw u rejected one of them, but left the other. if u don't like that one, bare w/ me, i'll give u another! you owe me one anyways, for whuppin my ass last week! >:(
alright,i probally shouldn't post this but oh well. the nfl reinstated weed head ricky williams today. i went to add him on my roster, and they don't have him listed. if they post him, i want first dibs, but i know one of u sneaky asses will pick him up! :)

Someone picked him up in my other league. I had to pick up Mike Vick just to mock him.
i doubt very seriously he plays. even if he does, he probally won't be any good!
i appreciate it, easy!

it looks like i'm going to lose to true, TennFire is goin to take down BoS, Bama's going to beat corey, and Badmotherfuckers has a healthy lead but not guaranteed over easy.
That just leaves knotcameloose and bigfoot. right now kcl has the lead, 53-46. but Red still has brady and moss left to play.
Looks like I could fall to 5th or 6th. Dammit!!!
*Edited to reflect reality
i've got you next week, walt. It's SOOOO on!
its pretty much do or die after this week. there's going to be a jam for playoffs spots. it's still anyones ball game. this is going to be fun!!
Wow. I got my ass handed to me this week. I still have Big Ben and the Steelers D tomorrow night, but that ain't gonna do much for me. 2 very bad weeks in a row.
Shit.
walt handed me my ass this week. I'm pretty much out of it unless I win out and the right people lose. and i think i'm pretty much out of it all together in the other league. oh well. i'm already thinking about next season. ;)
are we still doing two tickets to a show on the upcoming tour for the winner?
Quoteare we still doing two tickets to a show on the upcoming tour for the winner?
not everyone agreed on it. also not everyone was there for draft, so i'm sure its not going to happen. but i would still be down.

I'll gladly pitch in. My late season heroics will not save me.
Two words: Devin. Hester. He's unbelievable. He singlehandedly kept the Bears in the game yesterday. Outside of Adrian Peterson and maybe Randy Moss, does anyone else in this league even come close to being as exciting as this guy? I just wish the Bears had the offense to be able to take advantage of the field position this guy gives them. Any other Bears fans here?
We've got some bears fans around fo sure. You may want to check the "real" NFL thread though. this is the fantasy thread and not everyone checks it. I'd pitch in for some tickets because I agreed to it in the beginning even though I'm done for as well.
What a disappointing nfl AND fantasy season. :'(
just noticed cedric benson's out for the year. That's makes ronnie brown, cadilac williams, and cedric williams that i've lost for the year. damn injuries.
Yeah, sorry wrong thread. I'm not in any fantasy leagues, do you even have return specialists?
QuoteYeah, sorry wrong thread. I'm not in any fantasy leagues, do you even have return specialists?
you get points if one of your players has a return TD but that's it. i wish i would've started ted ginn jr two weeks ago, but I didn't even know we got points for that until he ran his in.
btw, seamus, i agree that hester is one of the most exciting players in football and invaluable to any team. I thought he was going to be a flash-in-the-pan return guy like dante hall turned out to be but it looks like he's here to stay.
since my team is so shitty i think that it's mandatory that i chip in for tickets for the winner. it can't be that much spread out among nine people. i think the winner should get SOMETHING ;) good luck to all those still in it.
I'm down...
[size=18]HUGE[/size] match-up this week.
Bigger than Colts/Patriots? I think so. ;D
if i beat bigfoot next week i'm in the playoffs. come on pittsburg def. please half way contain brady and moss. the loss to easy e killed me. if i would have beat him, i would have already clinced a playoff birth! >:(
oh yea, if i lose, i will lose in a tie breaker to points! unless my brother and ramrod both lose!

you're lucky to be in the position you are. you have the third lowest point total, at one point you had the second lowest.
New England defense and kicker need to come up big tonight or I'm out of it. My bengals had a bad week but everyone else stepped up. we've gotta do this again next season.
no doubt, i feel an overwhelming desire to redeem myself :-?

I'm ready. I've got some goooooood matchups this week.
I'm on a hot streak right now that only means one thing.... Guaranteed loss in the first round of the playoffs. mark my words...
damn, i'm up by 2 freakin points and bigfoot has crumpler left! will i go to hell if i wish that he pulls a hammy in pre- game warm ups? j/k win or lose(prob. lose), it's been fun as shit! can't wait till next year. :)
so does week 15 start playoffs?i noticed it doesn't give any week 15 matchups.

it appears as though i may have a victory depending on how Roddy White does for Jon's team tonight.

I also need bama to lose which would give us the same record, i would have more points for the tie breaker.

well i watched the game tonight. i needed Alge Crumpler to get just a few points and Roddy White to get fewer than 15 i think. Alge Crumpler didn't do shit. i think i only witnessed him catch 1 pass for a few yards. White had 1 touchdown, i think i'm good there. i'm not sure if i made it, i'll have to wait 'til morning
holy shit, i can't believe my 2 points held up! this morning i looked at the stat tracker first, and it said that true was in 4th place. i then go to the fantasy page and it has bigfoot in the playoffs(this was at 5:30). at 7:00 i go back to the fantasy page, and it had true in there. i don't know what was going on, but they ended up getting it right.
i'm matched up w/ walt, which sux, cause i think he has the strongest team from top to bottom. i think he is going to take the championsip. i would like my chances better if s. holmes wasn't hurt and if chester taylor were still getting all the carries. oh well!

you beating bigfoot was big. At least someone can beat Tom Brady and Randy Moss!
i was just about to post that. that's funny as shit!
i feel bad for bigfoot though. he missed the playoffs by one fucking point. even though i had to beat him to get in, i still feel bad. i would rather lose by 50 points rather than 1.
Wow! That really came down to it. Congrats to everyone who made the playoffs. I can't believe that K didn't get in with Brady and Moss. But then again there were two weeks that he didn't update his roster so he kinda did it to himself.
Congrats again. I'll get mine next year. (I hope everyone comes back for next year).
Quotei feel bad for bigfoot though. he missed the playoffs by one fucking point. even though i had to beat him to get in, i still feel bad. i would rather lose by 50 points rather than 1.
i don't. he messed up by not putting players in to replace ones that weren't going to play, week after week. i'm assuming he probably didn't care much?
why the fuck did i get kicked out of the playoffs? i was supposed to go against Bad Motherfuckers. They gave a tie to bama and bigfoot?
Quotewhy the fuck did i get kicked out of the playoffs? i was supposed to go against Bad Motherfuckers. They gave a tie to bama and bigfoot?
ewww. that sucks. i don't know. but i do remember seeing a section about scoring disputes on the fantasy help page. i'm guessing they scored something wrong and made the change but it's awful late in the game to pull that.
what the hell? i didn't know that happened! that sux. i would contact them and ask what happened. that sux!
It's called a stat correction and it will break your heart - I lost 3 games last season on Tuesday in another league and missed the playoffs by a single game. Win on Tuesday morning, loss on Tuesday afternoon - no fun. Here is what happened here (I cut and pasted this from my other league's website):
In the Week 14 Minnesota at San Francisco game, an apparent interception of Shaun Hill by Pat Williams has now been ruled a Hill fumble and Pat Willaims fumble recovery by Elias Sports Bureau. Accordingly:
Shaun Hill will now be credited with 2 fumbles, 27 pass attempts, and 0 interceptions.
Pat Williams will be credited with a fumble recovery and a 1 yd return.
The Minnesota defense is credited with an additional sack and fumble recovery.
So instead of just one point for the interception, the Minnesota D now gets 2 points, one for the sack and one for the fumble recovery. Instead of a one point loss, we now have a tie and no playoffs for True.
This is easily the worst result from a stat correction that I have ever seen in over ten years of fantasy football.
yeah true. everyone knows we're not the best of friends but i'm feelin for ya. that sucks. that's a shitty way to go out.
wow, is all i can say.

it's all good, it would be different if there was money involved. i am competitive and wanted to win though. next year i plan to join a couple leagues, and play for money.

The money changes everything. I play in a league where there is quite a bit of money on the line and we argue like little girls. We used to be friends. I still can't believe that you missed the playoffs on a stat correction - I've been telling your sad tale to my friends.

yeah i'm still in disbelief. heres a summary of what happened just for the hell of it:
I originally thought to make the playoffs bigfoot had to beat bama, and I had to beat bad motherfuckers. I barley beat bad motherfuckers by two points, and beat him (the number 1 seed!) both times this season. As it turned out, it didn't matter if bama or bigfoot won, as long as one of them wins and ones of them loses. I watched the flacons saints monday night game as a lot was riding on that game, even though it was boring. Roddy White has a pretty good game and almost ruins my win over bad motherfuckers by 2 points, and Alge Crumpler is non-exisistant and only earns 1 point for bigfoot. I thought I didn't have a chance of making it, figuring bama had to lose and Crumpler didn't do anything to help bigfoot. Bama's 2 point lead turns into a 1 point victory and i make the playoffs as a 4th seed and bigfoot is on the outside looking in after a very promising start. That was the highest i've been to that point, I haven't been in 4th place all year! Playoffs were set for me to once again play bad motherfuckers for two conesecutive weeks. the next day the stat correction gives bigfoot 1 point, and a tie with bama. Both teams end the regular season 8-5-1 (our first tie all year) and me at 8-6 with more total points than bama and bigfoot and back out of the playoffs.
i would like to see the actual play to see if they got the call right.
Quotei would like to see the actual play to see if they got the call right.
I saw the play and it looked like an INT to me. So did the NFL change the stat after the fact or was this stat change made on sunday?
QuoteQuotei would like to see the actual play to see if they got the call right.

From the horses mouth:
"Also note that the NFL's statistical service, the Elias Sports Bureau, routinely makes stat changes in the days or even weeks following games."
Most fantasy services cut off stat corrections from making scoring changes after Tuesday; so if Elias comes back and changes something in week 2 in week 4, the results won't be changed. I actually thought it was a fumble. Shaun Hill went to Maryland, so I was happy to see him finally get in a game. He was dropping back and being mauled, the ball popped out behind him and was nabbed out of the air.

i think i saw the play during The Blitz on ESPN, not knowing the future consequences it would have. You couldn't really tell if he was trying to throw the ball. The ball came out forward like it was thrown as he was getting hit and was caught in the air.
My memory of the play is wrong. You can see it here:
http://www.nfl.com/videos
You have to select week 14, Min vs. SF and select highlights. It looks like the ball bounces off a lineman's helmet, but, man, I'd have to say that it looks like an interception to me. That is a tough, tough call.

Good point. This is really shitty. The guy who runs Elias must have the Minnesota D on his fantasy team.
looks like me and walt in the championship, unless peterson scores more than 35 points. he's capable of doing it, but hopefully he doesn't.
btw, I should still be able to pitch in for tickets for the winner down the line as well. I don't think I ever mentioned that when it came up a couple of weeks ago.
congrats to walt and bama.
Quotecongrats to walt and bama.
congrats to the stat correction. i would've played bama and lost. here's to you mister stat correction guy!...here's to you [smiley=beer.gif]
Yuck.
unless peterson goes off tonite, i will be playing the person i thought would win the championship(walt). if i keep my lead, good luck 2 ya, [smiley=beer.gif] may the best team win. here's to playing for the championship 8-) regaurdless if i win or lose, it's been fun as hell. this was my first year to play fantasy football. i was kinda lost in the beginning, and then learned stuff as each week passed by. hope everyone can get this same league together next year, cause even though i don't know u personally(except my bro) i feel like i know u, and all of u are cool guys. :)
Fuck off.
That's for knocking me out. But seriously, good luck to ya. You should try and get some of your friends in a money league next season.
lol! yea, me and my bro were talking about trying to do that, if we can get enough people.
Congrats on the win last night, Dylan. I had a pretty good run in the middle of the season, but screwed the pooch toward the end. Oh, well. It was fun any damn way.

Thanks. I didn't know if you were even paying attention. Did you notice that the difference in the game was our trade. Berrian did nothing and Colston had like 14 points which was more than the difference. Anyway, it was fun. I also hope we can get the same group together next year (even you Chris ;) ).
that's funny, i can actually thank walt for getting me to the champ. game w/ the trade we made. graham and galloway helped out alot. oh, and me getting tomlinson helped a little bit ;) who wants to pass my kidney stone for me?: :)
Quotethat's funny, i can actually thank walt for getting me to the champ. game w/ the trade we made. graham and galloway helped out alot. oh, and me getting tomlinson helped a little bit ;) who wants to pass my kidney stone for me?: :)
i'm still kicking myself for doing that trade. if i remember correctly, we played the same week we did the trade, and my former players turned on me and i lost. hopefully that won't happen this week.
also its been a fun year. but as far as the pair of tickets for the winner goes...i'm not sure if everyone's down for doing that. some people weren't there for draft. (although it would be only 10 or so bucks per team, which even for me that isn't a lot) BUT i'm saying next year, we let it be known that winner gets tickets. Obviously the founding members have first crack at signing up. i'll pay bama if he wins. i'm just saying that if i win, i won't be pissed if people don't.
same for me walt, if u win, i will pay u cash or if we do the tickets i will pitch in.
well shit, first i found out that fargas is out w/ an injury( he was getting me between 10-15 pts per week). so i had a decision to make either to play c. taylor, s. holmes, or r. williams. weel i had holmes in there till about 4 hrs before the game thursday, but wasn't sure i wanted to do that or not. he has been injured for 3 weeks, and hasn't scored more than 3 pts. so, i call my brother and ask his opinionand he said he would go w/ taylor( and i said yea, i agree. well first play of the game holmes gets an 83 yrd reception and ends up w/ 13 pts.(bastard) hopefully taylor will get a short yardage td.
good luck walt! :)
i could be retarded, but i'm thinking about sitting portis. minnesota run d is way to good, and most teams give up running after the first quarter. i don't want to over think things, but i have to play the numbers in the championship.
you're not the only person thinking about sitting portis(fant. experts say sit him). i think i'm thinking way to hard this week, and i think it's going to kill me. all of the other weeks, i didn't struggle this hard about who to start or sit.
tough luck on t.o. last night, walt! he was headed for a huge game. i just wish that both of our teams wouldn't had injuries, but it happens, and it's part of the game.
damn, i got screwed! i had 3 players play 1 1/2 gtrs. a. gonzalez got inj., e. graham and galloway got pulled cause tamp. bay had already clinched a playoff birth( so they pulled the starters so they wouldn't get injured.)
i still think i have a pretty good shot at winning it though. i got l.t. and cutler against gates( i'm down by 16). by the way walt, looks like you made a good move by benching portis for alexander. fuck u alexander. you're my all-time fav. player and didn't do shit for me and had one of your best games of the year scoring wise. i hate u, u are no longer my fav. player! lol :)
pretty nerve racking huh, walt?

pretty nerve racking huh, walt?
its getting down to the wire! i'm sorry i didn't post anything yesterday. (i wanted to) my internet was f'd. i'm hoping for LT getting pulled after the first half. the chargers playing on monday night, only helps me. they have their playoff spot locked, so they don't need to win. LT won't play as much, but Gates should play pretty much the whole game, i would think.
looks like the portis benching for dumb. i probably should've benched Plax. but thats the breaks.
good luck bama, and merry christmas
good luck to u 2 , walt! that's what i'm afraid is going to happen(tomlinson getting taken out early like graham and galloway!) merry christmas to u and everyone else!
even if i win, i've thought since we made that trade, that u had the best team, and should win it all! u deserve it!

The thing they do have to play for is the 3rd seed, I know the Steelers want to get it if its possible. It could be a difference in playing the Patriots or the Colts in the playoffs. I would feel better about the Steelers chances at playing Colts than the Patriots.
YES!!!! good game walt! guys, i had alot of fun this year. i just want to thank everyone for letting me in ya'lls league. looking forward to next year already!!! :)

QuoteYES!!!! good game walt! guys, i had alot of fun this year. i just want to thank everyone for letting me in ya'lls league. looking forward to next year already!!! :)
i'm also looking forward to next year. i have to say hats off to you bama. you wheeled and dealed your way to the top. i've never seen someone make so many trades in one season. you definatly earned it! congrats!
i hope to still see you in here. i'll send you your ten bucks toward tickets or whatever you want to spend it on. pm me your address.
thanx man, i appreciate it! yea, i would send out about 6 trade offers a week at least! lol getting l.t, graham, galloway, and gore were huge! by the way, u deseved to win it, if l. johnson wouldn't have got hurt, u def. would have one. u had a better roster than i did, but from one week to another ,u just don't know how well they will play. unfortunately for u, yours had an off week when it counted the most.
i sent u a pm of my address walt!
my post championship interview: first of all i would like to thank my sister for letting me check stat tracker every 10 min. while she was on the computer. second, i would like to thank all of u who made trades w/ me(especially jacketeers, who traded me l.t) :) i wanna thank my brother for asking me if i wanted to join ya'lls league(so blame him for me winning ;)) and last but not least, all u guys for letting me in the league!
by the way, this is not serious! it's like the espn fantasy commercials!
Congrats, Chris!
How did we let the only person who wasn't on this board before the league bet us? ;) ;)
PM me you address and I'll pay up.
I told him the other day that it would have been pretty sad to see him wheel and deal so much and not even make the final four. It didn't look like he was gonna do it for a while, but I'm pretty sure that LT was a big help.
Yeah man congrats. I suffered a monumental collapse dropping three straight to end up in 4th. WTF. Anyway, send me your address and I'll square up.
thanks guys, i appreciate it! looking foward to next year!
congrats man, pm and i will square up with you. hope your back next year ;)
i'm having trouble figuring out who to play today! :) damn, it sux now that our season is over. well now i will be able to enjoy the games. i would go from my room to the comp. room about every 10 min. to check stat tracker.

i feel ya. i was going to pull up stattracker just to keep tabs on what happens today but it doesn't even work anymore. it's gonna be a LONG wait to next year...
yep,it sure is. it's really gonna suck when football season is over! >:(
bama if you still visit here...i sent the check out. sorry it took so long, i didn't forget...i got lazy. i actually had it signed, sealed, and...not delivered for a couple of weeks. congrats, and don't spend it all in one place!
ooops! thanks for reminding me. I'll get my check in the mail soon too.
Ditto. Im a procrastinator...
That countdown thread had me thinking... I guess Tracy has to replace AMD. We could do the draft at a show. I love making unrealistic plans.

She's wrapping up nicely, but you should always see what you hit. You're required to have a team this year and your team name will be Goat Boy.

I'm in again for sure. I've given up on baseball. my team was doing pretty good, i just cant keep up. Plus, my work put the smack down on the interweb, loooooooooong overdue for that. But, I'm definitely interested if we get enough.
The amount of replies for this thread was 666, it was creeping me out.
I had to change it, forgive me
You know I'm in! Yinz (Pittsburgh for y'all) are goin down!
I dont know if this is an established league or what, but Id be down if you have room for 1 more team. Ive been playing FF for about 10 years know, always good to join a new league with ppl you (somewhat) know as opposed to a yahoo public league
Got room?
We had 10 teams last year, right? Was that the most number of teams we could have, or could we go to 12?
Also, Dylan still wants to be involved, and I'd still like for him to be involved in the league.
So I guess if we can go up to 12, you're more than welcome to join... or if there is someone else that played last year that doesn't want to play this year.
I can't wait for it to start!

i was thinking the same thing. he's still in the fantasy baseball league we all are in, and don't see a reason for him not to join. you don't have to be in the forum to be a jacket fan. but you have to be a jacket fan to be in the league.

I think 12 is actually the best # for a league. 10 teams usually leaves too many guys on free agency/waivers, although some people like that. Once you get past 12, I think depth is a little too low and you got guys on your roster youll probably never even consider playing
Two of the things I like a lot. MMJ and Fantasy football.
12 teams is always the best way to go. :D
Then I saw we go with 12 if everyone else is cool with it. :)
i'm fine with it, but it's crazy, last year i had to bag people to join just to get 10.

Hey Walt, I need to know ahead of time by at least a few weeks when the draft is. I want to make sure I'm there.

you got it. so are we making it 12 then? i don't care either way, it's still early.
I'm voting for 12.
I'm cool with 12.
Count me in y'all, if there's room.
With all of the new people, you'd think that 12 would be no problem. I'd vote for a mid-week, early to late afternoon draft as most of us here are just trying to not work. We should also work on the prize - I still have no idea where I'm supposed to send $20 to from last year.
it was $10, and i don't think he ever cashed my check. i did send it. people who were in it last year have first priority over the newer members. I would be down for a couple league.
i never agreed on sending money last year, since it was a free league. i'll play for money this year, not sure how that works though.
Not sure there is a good way to work it. There was a very informal idea that we might all pitch in for tickets or something arrangement last year - nothing that was ever confirmed or agreed to. I'd rather keep this low stakes and MMJ related; I spend enough $$ on other leagues every year.
I have no good ideas on how to do this though. Tickets to MSG for NYE would be cool as the season will end at about the same time. BUT, I don't think any of us are willing to cover travel and hotel for a stay in NYC.
I still owe $10 but count me in again. I need to redeem myself after my poor performance of last year :-/
MMJ Forum league this year?
