Some moron in my 10 team league dropped him for Ben Tate so I grabbed him and dropped Torrain. He'll be my RB3 so I'm pretty happy about that.
-
That's a scary thought
-
So if my Pick 4 line is Pats -4.5, who would you take? I'm tempted to take them minus the points but also worried about it. My gut tells me they will come out strong to avenge last week's game and the Raiders are pretty much 1 dimensional at this point. Right now I have Indy +9.5 but might replace them with Pats -4.5. Ideas on safer pick?

Winning a league drafting a QB later than round 8 possible?
rotisserieking replied to Natetradomus's topic in FFToday Board
After trying it for the first time last year I absolutely subscribe to this mentality now. Last year I grabbed Ryan (8) and Flacco (10) for my QBs and made the playoffs in 1 league for the 1st time in 4 years and came in 2nd and finished 2nd in another league. This year I took Flacco (10) and Orton (12) so we'll see what happens but the difference between the #5 and #15 QB is not as great as the #5 and #15 RB from what I can tell so I went after RB/WR before the QB. -
He had committed to Nebraska but Blaine and his dad talked him into going to Mizzou. I was impressed by Blaine's backup this season, in his few appearances he reminded me of Brad Smith so I wonder if he'll start next year while Tyler "develops"?
-
Agreed with the positives and negatives already put out there. He looked great at the Oklahoma game but not so good against Tech. He'll be training with Kurt Warner in Phoenix through April. His pro day will feature passing to both Maclin and Danario Alexander and Chase Daniel will be his rookie sponsor. Really cool stuff for a kid literally up the street from us. One of my groomsmen has known him since he was about 6 so watched him grow up since day one. My buddy said his little brother might be better than him though.
-
Well thanks to 1) Colston dropping an 8-yard pass that hit him in the hands in the 4th and 2) Ryan's 20-yard gallop on the final drive, I eeked out a 103.12-102.96 championship victory!! Although I will be watching the stat corrections VERY closely...
-
Oh, and FU to the NFL for making me watch my Rams against the seahags in primetime. Come on, this is worthy of 3 pm game, nothing more...and I'm a Rams fan.
-
Still have a chance tonight - I need Ryan to outscore Colston by 9.5 pts so there's a chance. But that being said, it would have been much closer so FUs go out to: 1. the 'vaunted' Chargers defense for getting me -1.50 despite being ranked 2nd or 3rd this week everywhere. 2. Rashard Jennings for failing to back up what he's done in previous weeks 3. to me for benching Bowe in favor of said Jennings 4. and to my opponents Jani-fat-a$$-ski for getting 18, 18 freaking points from a kicker.

Our rules state that the cutoff is 5 minutes before kickoff per Yahoo - not advertised kickoff, but ACTUAL kickoff and Yahoo is pretty good about the actual kickoff times. But if Yahoo has locked out the game then the player is locked out as well; I as commish will not intervene in that case. It's only happened twice in 11 years that people cut it that close and I always email both owners to explain what I'm doing and why a commish move will show up.

Championship games are next week but I have 2: League 1, 10 team ppr start 1QB/2RB/2WR/1TE/1flex QB - Ryan/Garrard RB - Blount/Mendenhall/Tolbert/FJackson/Choice/DBrown/DWard WR - AJohnson/CJohnson/Nicks/Bowe TE - Tamme/Witten K - Kaeding D - San Diego League 2, 10 team non-ppr start 1QB/2RB/3WR/1TE QB - Freeman/Garrard/Flacco (dropped Orton) RB - CJohnson/Hillis/SJax WR - Colston/Miles/Boldin/VJax TE - Tamme/Witten K - Vinatieri D - Tampa/Philly
-
I finished 11-3 but in second place due to overall points - I lost overall by 6.10 thanks to the final play of our regular season - a pick 6 by the Ravens D. He gets 7 points for that one and thus passes me for the #1.
-
Hope you're right - I'm giving myself about half that chance so I won't be dissappointed tomorrow
-
Need Peterson and Cundiff to score 17 more than Sidney Rice...
-
A nice big FU goes out to Maclin (1.60), Megatron (6.20) Olsen (1.10) for crapping the bed in week one of the playoffs against the #6 seed. All the while Torain and Westbrook were mocking me on the bench with a combined 42.20 pts. I'm now down 18 with Peterson and Cundiff against Sidney Rice. I give myself a 20% chance of moving on.
-
We tried to emulate the first NFL tie breaker FWIW, then the primary fantasy tiebreaker as #2.
-
This is the correct response. I have to do it every year because Yahoo always gets our standings wrong because it defaults to point as tiebreaker whereas we are head to head as #1, then points. I went in this morning and took 50 points from a guy in a loss to make everything work out right.
-
A-freaking-men. I only needed 1 catch for 10 yards from him to get the #1 seed. Now I'll likely get bounced down to the #3 and forced from a bye week and guaranteed money.
-
Wow, where to start. My 3 teams (11-1, 10-2, 9-3) all completely shat the bed this week. But special FUs go out to Bowe, Tamme, Orton, and the Chargers "defense". I only needed 1.7 out of any of them for a win in 2 leagues. Seriously WTF San Diego? You got me -0.50 points

What is your leagues worst division winner
rotisserieking replied to Lion Fan's topic in FFToday Board
I won our league in 2004 by sneaking in at 6-7 and then finishing 9-7 as well. Definitely the worst winner my league has seen (since 1998). Last year our winner was 7-6/10-6 and strangely enough he did the same thing in 2006. What is odd is that only two times in 12 years has the #1 seed won, and not since 2003. -
Who's Kicking Fantasy ***? Let's brag it up a bit.
rotisserieking replied to Kent's topic in FFToday Board
10 team non-ppr, lost the first game by 4 because Kolb got me a nice 0.43 points, rattled off 10 wins since and stand 10-1, 2 games in front, highest points. Orton, Flacco Boldin, Colston, Austin, James Jones CJ, SJax, Hillis, LT, TJones Tamme, Witten K/DEF - rotate week to week I've been dominating on the waiver wire -
**Official Week 11 F.U. thread......
rotisserieking replied to Filthy Fernadez's topic in FFToday Board
a huge FU to a) the Broncos for not being able to tackle better than 5th graders (did you see the Crayton TD?!?!) and to Rivers for throwing that 4th TD and seeking personal records rather than handing to Tolbert. Because of you I lost by 2 (had Tolbert vs Rivers) -
A. Hernandez owners: What are you doing?
rotisserieking replied to Matt Mueller's topic in FFToday Board
First off, Belicheck is a d-bag. Secondly, I'm holding onto him. Knowing the douchebaggedness of said coach, I could see him going for Gronkowski-like numbers this week, but just in case I grabbed Heap off waivers but I won't decide on which one to start until Sunday morning most likely. -
I don't have Vick nor was I playing against him (luckily) but this is probably the best fantasy Monday Night output since the Billy Volek-Drew Bennett 7 combined TD game against the Chiefs in 2004 (week 12?). I had both that night and was down over 60 but ended up winning. Also won the next week when they combined for like 5 TDs. That catapulted me into the playoffs at a horrific 6-7 but ended up winning the league. Ah, good times.
