Quoteso if you lose do you have to use this picture?

I'd be alright with a Ochocinco picture, but probably Dylan wouldn't be alright with a Favre picture. I guess that's the difference between Dylan and I. He's a great fan of his football team, and well, I'm not. I have a picture in mind, I posted in here before, and it's not Brett Favre.

I thought about it, the one picture that'd piss me off would be Cedric Benson. After two years of fucking my fantasy teams over, I officially hate that guy!

corey · Dec 09, 2009, 06:05 PM

Haha! He fucked me my first year of playing (3 years ago), but has done well for me this year.

good call

...on another note, did anyone else notice how Yahoo scored Meachem's fumble return TD play? They gave him a points for teh solo tackle, FF, and FR - which all make sense. HOWEVER - they give him 6 points for an offensive return TD, plus 6 more points for a "defensive" TD. I dont see how in any way you could possible give him duplicate points for the TD.

It didnt have any bearing in our league as Crispy wouldve still lost to Walt, and still has more points than EazyE, but in my money league had I not had 1 more win than the guy currently in 7th, he wouldve made the playoffs on points over me by 4 points based on getting 12pts for Meachem's 1 TD.

Just a little FYI because it might make a difference in some of yinz other leagues. I dont know if Yahoo has a way to alter scoring, but I wouldve lost my shit if I missed the playoffs by 4 points because Yahoo gave Meachem 12pts for 1 TD and it couldnt be corrected

That cost my wife a first round bye based on points in the league I commish. I didn't explain all that to her as I didn't want to see her head explode.

if youre commish why not go in and correct the scoring?

assuming you could

Crispy · Dec 10, 2009, 01:22 PM

You can correct that in Yahoo leagues, I would assume you could in others too.

I didn't realize I had that kind of power, but I do so, so I went ahead and changed it. Hopefully the person who got kicked out of second won't be too mad. It's just one of Walt's buddies anyway. ;)

five in a row for the stealers. I'm still waiting for their special teams to make them more dangerous than last year, but maybe capt meant dangerous as in in danger of not making the playoffs. ;D

Cincy needs just one more win or one more Baltimore loss to clinch the division. Then we will have our sites set on a first round bye. Next week at San Diego could be the deciding the game.

Thanks to the steelers loss, and maybe A Miami win this sunday we can get in on a wild card.

youre welcome AMC!

Im not sure who has more bitches.....the Steelers or Tiger Woods

oh well, we havent had a Top 10 draft pick in awhile, so Im shooting for that now....and that they fire OC Bruce Arians, who for every good playcall has about 3 that are absolutely terrible. Shotgun and empty sets on 3&2, 3&1?! You gotta be shittin me

This a catch 22 week for me. I'm not sure I want the Jags to win or the Dolphins. All we can do is beat the Buccos and let the cards fall for now.

.Walt · Dec 13, 2009, 12:22 AM

Question: If Michael Turner can go tomorrow, do I start him? I'd bench Maroney or Colston. Right now I'm thinking about sitting him, in fear that he couldn't finish the game again. It's about 75% chance I won't play him, but that other 25% is that last second sub. Thoughts?

aMillionDreams · Dec 13, 2009, 09:39 AM

I'd start Colston. Turner's too risky. That's what I'd do.

.Walt · Dec 13, 2009, 11:43 AM

Looks like Turner is out.

.Walt · Dec 14, 2009, 01:03 AM

Good game.

AMightyCaporal · Dec 14, 2009, 10:23 AM

Where's the picture change?

aMillionDreams · Dec 14, 2009, 12:35 PM

I changed it. I'm not seeing it right ow. If it doesn't show up I'll find a similar pic and change it again. Disappointing game. It's bizarre that the thing we've always been good at is the one part of our game we can't get working, the pass game. Our special teams, defense, and running game played well enough to win the game but Carson couldn't find 100 yards of passing. What's that about?!

.Walt · Dec 14, 2009, 01:55 PM

First win against an actual good team, finally. Getting Winfield back was huge, but I gotta say I'm disappointed that Ochocinco didn't do anything.

As far as the picture goes, try this one or anything with Chilly.

.Walt · Dec 14, 2009, 02:03 PM

They're playing this on the sports talk radio station. I would almost rather have lost.
