It's too bad i missed the draft for EB football. I would have kicked ass and taken names =)

I'm 1st and 3rd in my two leagues.

I'm 1st and 3rd in my two leagues too.

But I missed the draft for the other league -- the one I'm 1st in.

Poor Malek. Has the fourth highest-scoring team in the league, but a 3-8 record.

I've scored 53 fewer points than PD, who is leading!

I'm Vince Young. I just win games

I scored almost 200 points MORE and I'm still in second. That's ok, I'm gonna fix that in week 14 by whipping the shit out of PD again. Gonna end up looking like a race crime.

Hah.

My 14 person league is the league I'm first in. I had such a shitty draft, but some of my moves ended up panning out which saved me. I went two WRs with my first 2 picks -- 10 and 18th (Andre J, Moss) -- then went with Marshall with my 3rd, and drafted two QBs in a row: Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco.

Taking Ryan and Flacco I knew would fuck someone in the league, considering there are only about 12 serviceable fantasy QBs. Sure enough someone was starting Stafford, and he had Chris Johnson, Thomas Jones and Jonathan Stewart as his RBs, so I offered him Flacco for Chris Johnson and he took it (CJ had a horrible first week and TJ and JS were relatively decent). Later on I flipped Donald Driver for Todd Heap (didn't pan out). I also drafted Sidney Rice, and that was some lucky shit.

So my lineup right now, as it stands, is:

QB: Matt Ryan
RB1: Chris Johnson
RB2: Beanie Wells/Ahmad Bradshaw/Donald Brown
WR1: Randy Moss
WR2: Andre Johnson
TE: Todd Heap
K: Nate Kaeding
WR/RB: Brandon Marshall/Sidney Rice
DEF: GB/Ari

My WRs singlehandedly win games for me. Oh, and Chris Johnson of course

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #1324 on:** November 24, 2009, 06:39:22 PM »

We only have 8 teams in this league, but we start 2 QBs cause we're manly. Having played in 2 QB leagues before, I knew this would make the position that much more valuable and drafted Brady and Rivers 7th and 10th respectively. My team rules, largely because Cedric Benson has panned out.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #1331 on:** November 28, 2009, 06:00:35 PM »

Wow I'm in trouble. Roflesburger is out, Warner is questionable, Peterson might be questionable...fuck. I just picked up Alex Smith and I might have to get another QB just in case Warner doesn't start.

OptimoPeach · « **Reply #1332 on:** November 28, 2009, 06:35:53 PM »

The best part about the Roethlisberger debacle is that their regular backup QB is injured as well, so the third string guy will be starting:

Quote

Dennis Dixon, who has attempted one pass in his two seasons, will start.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #1333 on:** November 28, 2009, 06:52:09 PM »

ouch, the Ravens will eat him alive.

They'll be running the ball a lot, and I do have Mendenhall...but eh, dunno. Ravens rush defense is good and they won't have to worry about Dixon beating them. Could be an ugly game

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #1334 on:** November 28, 2009, 08:17:47 PM »

Please Jesus let the Seahawks lose to the Rams so they can dismantle the entire organization this offseason. Ruskell, Mora, etc. need to fucking go.

which I'm going to! GO SAINTS! city will explode with a win.

probably not watching too much TV today, putting up lights/etc. will maybe have it on in the background all day though, and check up on the fantasy periodically to see how PD is doing.

No point in checking. Warner is out and I can't pick up another QB off waivers before 4pm, so I'm going to lose bad. Horrible luck

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #1340 on:** November 29, 2009, 02:16:12 PM »

Yeah, I'm fucked in my other league with regards to Warner. Goddamn it. On the other hand, I'm crushing that league, so whatever.

Akala · « **Reply #1341 on:** November 29, 2009, 03:32:04 PM »

Matt Ryan bummed out in Q1. You have hope PD.

A pick and a fumble on back-to-back drives to guarantee the choke

I will laugh if the Titans make it to the postseason after an 0-6 start.

OptimoPeach · « **Reply #1355 on:** November 29, 2009, 07:28:08 PM »

I love this bit from Young's Wikipedia entry:

Quote

Upon announcing the change, Fisher further stated: ""I'm still in Kerry Collins' corner because I don't believe that our record is a reflection of the quarterback play," Fisher said. "It's a reflection of the team play. I'm still in his corner, but we've decided to go ahead and make this change."[48]

After their abysmal start, the Titans have won all five of the games with Young as quarterback.

Brehvolution · « **Reply #1356 on:** November 29, 2009, 08:26:08 PM »

49ers. Alex Smith looks pretty good when there is no pass rush.

Bocsius · « **Reply #1357 on:** November 29, 2009, 09:27:50 PM »

Brett Favre, 392 yards, 3 TDs, 0 picks

If you're keeping score at home, that's 24 touchdowns on the year and only 3 interceptions.

Old guys

Mandark · « **Reply #1358 on:** November 29, 2009, 11:16:10 PM »

Kinda ironic that after years of being stroked, Favre finally manages to get the media to turn on him a bit, only to play so well that those ridiculous levels of praise would actually be deserved.

Oh, and sorry about turning into that guy who conveniently forgets about the league when his fantasy and real teams both suck. I'm trying to play spoiler the rest of the way, though it looks like I'm the beta Jew this week.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #1359 on:** November 29, 2009, 11:20:18 PM »

You could probably end up winning. Benching Manningham and McCoy was a mistake.

Its funny how former Cowboy Daryl Johnston is infinitely better than Troy Aikmen, as far as being a commentator.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #1362 on:** November 30, 2009, 03:22:38 AM »

Chances of Brady accumulating less than 18 points tomorrow: 0%

And can't believe Favre's QB rating is 112. What the fuck. He's never had a season over 100 before!

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #1363 on:** November 30, 2009, 03:27:40 AM »

Hey, don't feel bad. Mandark waited until TODAY to actually play, and now our match is essentially a wash. If one of his IDPs has a spectacular game, I'm done.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #1364 on:** November 30, 2009, 07:44:38 AM »

I'm up by 38 and have Moss tonight. Akala has Brees, Colston, and Pierre Thomas. If NE can stifle the NO offense I'll win, but I can't say I'm confident right now.

I'd be dead if Matt Ryan didn't get hurt yesterday

yeah, luck was on your side with that one. made it close though. I need NO to crush in so many ways.

we are going to the game with two painted face new england fans, so there is a chance I'll be on tv lol. they are bad fans though, so I want to see bitter tears! it's gonna be cold and rainy afterward, a giant bourbon street party after a win would be totally insane. I just hope it's a good game, and not a blowout either way. well, a saints blowout would be allright, I guess.

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #1366 on:** November 30, 2009, 01:13:54 PM »

No matter the outcome, one side is going to be shedding the bitter tears. I've already unleashed mine last Thursday.

just give me 1 TD for Moss god dammit Brady

then throw a couple more INTs so Triumph loses again
