Setting up the league now. 14 spots. I am changing the roster settings after my efforts to spice things up failed last year.

QB, RB, RB/WR, WR, WR/TE, K, DEF

My team name is Bags of Douche, to reflect my success in recent years. 

I left the scoring as the defaults except I boosted per reception points to 0.5 from 0.25 and included return TDs.  Willing to tweak if a consensus is reached.

I'm in as "Unsponsored".

Kilt Wavers are in.

Really now?  :grin:

And.. Iron Chef Cthulhu is in.

Attack Monkies are back for more! I hope to finish higher than 3rd after getting SCREWED last year.  :drill:

Agoraphobes are the best around, nothin's gonna ever keep us down.

I'm in just to show that I can do well without having to ride Brady's coattails. 

God dammit.

Your live online draft is set for Tue Aug 25 5:30pm PDT [ Add to My Calendar ], which is 83 days, 5 hours, and 10 minutes from now.

Holy fuck. 83 days early and we can't get a weekend draft?  :drill:

We can get a weekend draft. Do people want that? 5 yes and I change it. I like doing it after work myself and summer weekends are not usually spent near the computer.

Weekend will probably be better for me.

Weekends are better for me.

If it's a Sunday night I'm solid with that. If you pick a Saturday, there's always a 50-75% chance I'm on the road with no access to my computer.

Sunday evening would be best for me too. The draft now actually works for me since I telecommute on Tuesdays, but if it was Wed-Fri there is no way I would be home from work in time. I am sure I am not the only Left Coaster who would like to play.

Weekends are terrible for me.

Is the league full already? The link just takes me to a message that I'm not a member of the league.

EDIT: Roosters are in!

In as the Punters.

Wizard Sleeves reporting for another season of fail.

So when starts the gnashing of teeth from people that don't see this, and realize the league filled up in 24 hours, 80 days before the season started?  :grin:

I could make a post in Gen Disc, but I look forward to the "the JV league isn't the same thing. Screw you guys, I'm going home.  I need a tissue." post from the usual suspects.  They miss it every year.  They whine every year. It's precious.

That being said, I hate for some people to miss it.  I guess I can PM Phil so I can laugh at him this year again.

edit: Hah, there's already only one slot left.  Good thing my wife didn't go into labor yesterday.

I got 3 weekend rule and one weekends suck. Keeping it Tues the 25th for now since that doesn't actually hurt anyone.

IMO, we should just give dibs to the people who've consistently played over the years, and leave any extra spots and the JV and JJV and JJJV leagues as free-for-alls. 

That's pretty much how it's going.  Zetlef needs to sign his ass up.

Bloodsuckers are in although if you want me out to make room I will bail.

I can't count. There are 2 spots left.

I say we start a JV league now and fill it up too. The tears will be delicious!  :drill:

Bandwagon is IN

Apparently I got the last spot.  Good for me.

The Pants Party rides again! (but this time less 0-8 action).

 :why_so_serious:

Try to pay attention this time.   :oh_i_see:

Shh, every league needs a Detroit Lions.  :ye_gods:

It actually wasn't due to lack of trying -- it's because my team sucked.

I kept up with the league last year! I made the playoffs in JV :P

Heh, missed this again. I guess it's JV for me for a third year in a row  :uhrr:

Doh, JV for me as well.

Will join the JV if a new guy is allowed in.  :grin:

I'll set it up soon unless another regular wants to run it.

Was there still no JV team setup?


The commish curse? If it's created I'll join, but starting the league usually means dead last, at least in my experience.

Ack, sorry. I'll be getting on that.  I promise.   Well, unless my son decided to turn me into a human burp rag like last night.

I urge everyone to look over the scoring rules.  I'm in several leagues and my drafts look VERY different depending on the scoring scheme.  I just drafted my team yesterday for a 12 team league where they require 2 starting QB and 2 starting RB's.  Talk about tough decisions...

See you all Tuesday. 

Just a reminder that the draft's on Tuesday at 5:30 PST.  Which, I won't be able to attend because my mom's visiting.

Hopefully, autodraft doesn't decide to give me 3 quarterbacks before selecting a second WR.  Fucking autodraft.

I popped in to make a reminder post and I see two already. Hope to see most of you online tomorrow night.

I am

Bags of Douche, Commissioner, just so you know who to bitch at.

Wife's birthday today so I probably shouldn't jump on the pc to draft.

But I'm tempted!

I'll be there to at least screw up my team in person.

I should be able to make it for the draft. If I don't I'll end up with 3 Wideouts, 2 kickers, and the Detroit defense.

The scoring and rosters are odd enough that my odd drafting might finally, albiet accidentally, turn out to be brilliant.

Going over the pre-draft rankings was useless. Some of these high rankings scare the crap out of me.  Steve Slaton a first rounder.  UGGG.

Autodraft is going to rape the shit out of me.

Nobody really stands out as AWESOME MUST HAVE this year in my book. It's all very questionable.

I didn't realize we went with 14 teams.  Uh, talents a bit thin at that altitude.

ugh - autodraft Hell.

My own fault, will have to make do.

The NFL is questionable this year.  It should make this season more interesting. 

My team sucks.  I dislike having to choose which bad decision to make.

I hope a thin roster will help mitigate that, but even Round 6 had little quality left.

I just realized that this was last night.  Stupid DC Restaurant week.

TO and Drew Brees? How can I lose!?!?  :awesome_for_real:

I feel pretty good about my team.  Which is a sure sign I'm doomed  :uhrr:

Auto draft is shit. I have 1 QB, 2 TE (and there's not even a dedicated TE slot) and a buttload of RB's. Anyone want to trade me a GOOD QB for Winslow?

Either Raheem Morris is a genius or an idiot.  We'll see how this "three RB situation" goes down in the regular season.

It'd be even worse if Cadillac Williams plays anywhere near his rookie season, because he's been looking good in the preseason.

Haem, I thought your team looked pretty solid.  You're pretty light on WRs, but you're stacked on RBs (like me).

I could see about trading you Farve though, if you're willing to part ways with one of your starting RBs.

Haha Haemish with Favre might cause Haemish's head to explode during the season.

I might be interested in trading Cassel for a RB and a throw away QB that plays week 8.  If you have any interest in taking a gamble on Cassel.  I took a lot of gambles this year... about all I could do with the 12 pick.

Winslow or Gates are really my best trade bait, though if the QB offered is solid enough, I MIGHT let either Portis or Jackson go. I picked up Mark Sanchez as a backup QB for Rivers' bye week, but who knows how well that'll go. Cassell would be fine if he was still a Patriot. As a Chief? You gotta come with more than that.

And Favre? No, I think I'd rather lose in a fiery fire ball of hate than have that fucker on my team.

You're correct.  I was just tossing it out there.  Honestly, I have almost zero interest in a TE in a league that doesn't require a TE. 

Take a look at my team.  I'll give you Cassell and a something for Sanchez and something assuming that Sanchez plays week 8. 

Top 5 TEs should not be ignored even in our limited roster just for the reliability of steady points, but below that it is probably better to gamble on #2 and #3 WRs based on match-ups.

The autodraft proves itself retarded again, although I can see why it did it. It drafted based on ADP (average draft position) and since 99% of leagues have a dedicated TE spot, TEs got more weight than they should have in our league.  To account for this, I removed ALL TEs from my pre-draft rankings in case I missed the draft unexpectedly.

First game tonight. Make sure your active rosters are in order.

Getting my roster in order will not help me do any better than acting as a bye for my opponent. 

I wish everyone the best of luck on this season.  I hope it will be entertaining. 

Started Gage in my other league and forgot to activate him in this league.

Senility is overrated.

Now you say that.  Well, that's a good looking 20 points on my bench.  :(

Oy hell. Left Gage on the bench in the JV league and he gets more points than Ward. Fucker.

Last time Gage played PIT he had 110 yds and a TD.  WR's are fickle, but sometimes history does repeat itself.

God damn adrian peterson

Ugh, left 15 points on my bench by not playing Devery Henderson.

Drew Brees is awesome, but not awesome enough to overcome the rest of my shitty team unless T.O. goes off the chain on Monday.

Drew Brees just blew his load. Wow. Then I saw the Philly D with probably the third highest points for the week.

Yeah, Brees stuck the knife in and then Forte tripped, fell on me and drove it in deeper.  T.O. is coming to finish the job but all I can do is hope that I can limp to safety before he catches up.

Fuck. I need 50 points from 3 players tonight or I'm hosed. How did the Baltimore D only score 3 points against KC?

Great fucking game last night. Packers seriously need to unfuck that O line because it's going to be their weakness all year long if they don't.

I  am asking this question myself over and over again.  What makes it better is that I fucking sat the Eagles D (35 POINTS   :ye_gods:)

Best part was watching Cuntler throw pick after pick. God he is a twat.

Rasix cruised to an easy victory against me. My receivers utterly shit the bed. How the fuck did Brees throw 6 TDs and not hit Lance Moore? I smell a conspiracy.

Who was it that sniggered in chat when I picked Shockey in the 11th round?  Yeah...  :awesome_for_real:

Someone shoukd have saved the chat log from that draft as there was a fair amount of ragging by a particular participant.  Be interesting to see how prescient or dubious the comments turn out to be.

Says the guy who wracked up 99 points this week.  :awesome_for_real:

Well, TO not catching a ball the entire first half didn't help me. I've never lost a week when I had my QB put up 50+ points. Kudos.

Apparently I forgot to hit save after swapping McNabb out.

Much better from my team this week.

Buh. Tennessee defense was horrible this week. I start Arizona (!) instead and I win.  :oh_i_see:

I was telling my bud this morning: "well, if ronnie brown has a career game and reggie wayne dies, I might win!".

He laughed at me.
 :awesome_for_real:

Fuck my team.

Took off a couple of layers of paint on that one...  but a win is a win, even if it's by .6 of a point.

Bah, I cannot stand having a starter WR and RB combo from the same team.

Trade offers welcome!

I had the second lowest score in the league.  0.65 or not, I deserved to lose this week. 

Shit, if I had started Rivers instead of Sanchez and one or two other moves, I could have won. As it is, I am the lowest scorer by 30 points after two games. Fuck.

:heart:

I'm sitting on Dallas Clark and looking for decent offers at WR. Let me know. If you want one of the top TE's, that is.

To show my ignorance, I've decided to start the QB I grabbed on the waiver wire over the player I took in the 1st round of the draft.  Matchups, weather, injuries, and all that.  I'm sure I'll be regretting it come 4pm. 

Eli over Brady?  No, I don't think you'll regret that this weekend.

Instead, I'm regretting benching Kevin Walter.  I didn't think he was up to full speed yet.  Apparently, I was wrong.

My running back situation is a travesty. If anyone has one they want to offer up for trade I'll take a look at anything at this point.

I was not counting on Giants D to put up that many points.

It's becoming blatantly obvious that I have one of the most inconsistent teams in the world. Not that it matters, because Jones-Drew put up more points against me than 4 of my guys combined.

I cannot seem to start the right people.

Second week in a row I benched a 15+ point Desean Jackson anticipating a disaster for the Eagles. I still squeaked it out this week, though.


League settings question for the group: I noticed that we have a limit of 2 player acquisitions per week right now. This was not something I intended. Does anyone want it changed? I have never played with a limitation like that and if someone makes a change based on a bye week and makes a mistake, it could bone them.

I typically would just go ahead and change it but I don't want a pile of WTF?! on me for making a settings change in the middle of the season so I am asking first.

No objections.

I would like it gone, considering what a pile of suck most of my drafted players have been.

I'm fine with changing it.  It will become helpful when people start having multiple players on BYE.

And I squeak out another one.  the law of averages is going to catch me up pretty soon though, there are only so many times you can win with a 65-70 point performance.

I have Stephen Jackson and Clinton Portis. I desperately need a WR that isn't shit.

And who thought Schaub would put up almost 5x the points that Brees did.

Or that TO would break like what, 180 game streak of catching the ball?

That question has 2 answers: Buffalo Bills and Trent Edwards.

You need to add TO. He has had some problem holding onto the ball as well. 

This week is the one I knew I'd lose. Both RBs on a bye, my other D on a bye so I have to play Seattle v. Indy (ugh), and I forgot to switch Tony Gonzalez out on a bye for Dallas Clark because the game started so early.

So, fuck.  :awesome_for_real:

Well, there goes my perfect record.  Kind of expected when you leave 30 points on the bench and your starting QB gets... 3.

Well, there is still a chance to pull it out, all I need to ~25 points from a rookie wideout and an slightly better than average D.  Hey, it could happen.  :ye_gods:

All hail ME, who started Mark Sanchez for his whopping NEGATIVE 2 FUCKING POINTS. Is 32 points an all-time low score for fantasy football? The worst part? Had I started Gates and Rivers instead of Winslow and Sanchez, I'd have FUCKING WON by 20 points. Seriously, what the fuck? When did New Orleans get a defense and when did the Steelers lose theirs?

You benched Rivers and Gates?  Did you have a stroke or just forget that Head'N'Shoulders was still out?

Total fucking brain fart, really. I expected the New Orleans and Washington D to be softer than the Steelers even with Polamalu out. Oddly enough, I chose Rivers for the JV league.

Utter embarrassment from my team, although there wasn't much I could do.

This last weekend was total suck on all fronts for me as a sports fan. I'm going to forget it happened and move on.

Dont forget to sub your byes.

I need Brees to have a wicked day against the Giants. GO SAINTS!  :awesome_for_real:

There you go.

Hey, Nebu, if you aren't going to play Brady & Welker can I have them?   :drill:

That's only 80 points on the bench.

I'll laugh if I end up winning in this league and losing in the other where I have Brady.  Doesn't help that I couldn't fill 2 roster spots in the JV league.

Brady and Welker were playing in a snowstorm.  I figured that Eli would be in a shootout with Brees in his hometown (in a dome) and that Burleson would do well with Hasselbach in the lineup.  I was wrong.  It happens.  

I think they're safe bets from now on.   But then again, the Titans are playing like they want Fisher fired.

This may be my worst FF line up ever.

It cannot possibly be any worse than my goddamn lineup, which somehow managed to win with only 51 points. Holy shit, did the auto draft fuck me royally.

It's really amazing how badly the Titans are doing considered they started the season only missing 2 of the starters from last, though obviously one of the missing people is a biggie in Albert Haynesworth.

On behalf of my schizophrenically terrible team, you are welcome.

I've never seen a team look like they tried less in one game. It was like they looked at the snow, Tom Brady, and just said "Screw it, let's make our coaching staff look like douchebags."

I'm going to win the title while scoring the fewest overall points in the league.

There should be an achievement for that.

The Kevin Federline award?

Of course Haem puts up 80+ points the week he's playing me.

Ugh.

Also, WTF CARSON PALMER!?!?!

Palmer puts up 40+ against me when he's barely over 100 points in 6 weeks, and Drew Brees who has been lighting up the screen on my side is at FUCKING ZERO right now.

 :heartbreak:

If I get 115 points and lose because of Ricky freaking Williams I will have to sepuku.

It's McNabb's points vs. Portis tonight for our game. If you don't win, I will be hugely surprised.

I need Santana Moss to play better than he has all year, have Washington commit no turnovers, and have them put up 35+ points on the Eagles.

I BELIEVE, DAMMIT!

I think I have 6 or 7 players on BYE this week.  I blame myself for not drafting around this.  Should make for an interesting weekend. 

I cannot believe Ricky Williams did not carry me to victory.

 :oh_i_see:

Hehe.  Good show.

Aaaaaand... Matt Schaub and his highest total points for all players takes me into first place.

That and my being an idiot last week.

Man, being a Bears fan and having my Bat Country opponent starting Benson and Ochocinco made Sunday so fuckin' awesome I can't even describe it.

Motherfucking Portis on Motherfucking Washington - how do you not put up 100 yards a game with Portis on that team? I realize Jason Campbell couldn't throw his back out, but holy shit, there's no reason this Skins team shouldn't be able to put together a fucking running game. Cooley's out probably for the season (broken tibia)? Yeah, this team might be lucky to eke another win all season. Maybe if they go without a cap next year, Synder can shitcan the whole team and play a minor league roster since there will be no minimum floor for salaries as well. Then he can take all that money he saved with Geico and buy a fucking clue.

I appreciate the attention but.. have I ever accepted a trade in any FF league?

This is fucking ridiculous. I'm only starting two guys that I drafted. The rest are total busts.

Wide receiver in this league is a fucking joke. I think not having to have a tight end is what is restricting the availability of wideouts that don't suck. And man do my wideouts suck monkey ass. Of course, having so many really shitty teams doesn't help. When even Owens isn't a points producer, you know the player quality is all over the road.

I have no clue about what your general trading proclivities are, if you don't want to make a trade you can just decline it.  Which would be better than just leaving it hanging for two days.

Requiring a TE would make things more interesting.  I'd like to see that next year. 

We have TEs in the league I play, and with at least the ones I've had, they are remarkably more consistant than their WR counterparts.

But I always do that.  :awesome_for_real:

My team is doing better than I thought it would this year.   

And yah, we should defintely do a mandatory TE in this league.  I love the JV league roster, but it just kind of breaks down at 14 teams as opposed to 12.

Anywho,

I'm looking for a WR, anyone want to make me an offer I can't refuse?

Get in line, man. Did you not notice the last six posts?

I have no clue who any of your teams are for the most part... not that I'm flush with WR or anything. 

Man, the stats for the game that has 5 players in our match-up are borked.  :x

All I need is 48 points from Colston tonight and I win!  :heart:

I could have started Roy Williams or Terrel Owens, the starting wideouts on the fantasy football underachiever team, but instead I need about 4 points from Jeremy Shockey.  Guy is almost as infamous as Donte Stallworth for his 0 pt games.

 :facepalm:

Shockey's been more involved in the passing game for the Saints lately. I will be sweating it tonight.

Best record in both leagues.   :awesome_for_real:

That being said, it's 1 v. 2 in both leagues this week.  I figure I'll split it, with the likely win coming in this league.

And Shockey seals my fate as I knew he would. My team sucks so hard and there is just fuckall at the waiver level for wideouts.

I shall luck my way into yet another win

My wide receivers need to stop straining their groins.

If anyone wants a crappy RB, I'll take trade offers through the deadline. 

Willing to trade: Pierre Thomas, Mendenhall, Cadillac Williams, and Jamaal Charles who just became viable with the release of Larry Johnson. 

Looking for WR and/or DEF

Shit, I'd trade you a defense, but I don't think anybody has WR's to spare.

I'd consider a defense, but I'm not going to give Thomas or Mendenhall away.  I'd prefer a WR for either of those two. 

Make me an offer or send me a PM if you have something in mind.

Offer sent.

Trade offer sent Nebu.

If you're the bloodsuckers, that's an interesting offer.  I'm just unsure if I'd ever start Mason over Burleson (my 3rd WR).  Thomas is in my swing spot weekly, so I need someone that can fill that slot when Mendenhall has matchup issues.  That or a defense that is significantly better than SF with no BYE remaining.

Haem is offering the Ravens D, but I can't take on more players than I have.  I may need to restructure his offer. 

Ya, that's me.  If Mason doesn't do it for you I have 4 other WRs that  are all pretty close that I would be willing to consider trading instead.  Only Jackson is totally off the table.

Hah.  Win with only 2 player scoring over 10 points.  The Miles Austin experiment is heading toward failure.

Derrick Mason against the Baltimore defense (matched up on the BROWNS!) for the win against the Bloodsuckers. I think I got this.

You may be the only person watching that boring ass game.

How on earth does SD score 31 and V. Jackson only score 1.7 points? 

Yeah, that ain't happening.

I give up. I officially have no fucking idea what's going on stat-wise in the NFL anymore.

It's a weird fucking stat season for the league. Field-goal kickers are missing a lot more to my perception, some teams are just running up scores, and lots of the old Faithful stat monsters aren't this year. I don't know WTF is going on.

Well I had a chance when I made the Michael Turner trade, and I always have Drew Brees, but I'm still getting whomped every week because my receivers are either completely awesome or total no-shows. I mean last week I scored 115 points, and then 49 this week. That's playing the EXACT same roster.

The amount of motherfucking swing points in that week (66) would have won my matchup.  :ye_gods:

The wide receiver point swing is BRUTAL this year.

Scoring would be more consistent if:

a) Thrown TD's were worth 4 instead of 6

b) You reduce the scoring of team defenses

c) You require a TE by every team and have a WR/RB swing spot. 

d) Set lineups to be QB, RB, WR, WR, TE, K, DEF

WR's always have a pretty wide spread in weekly performance that evens out over the course of a season.  It's the 100 yd, 2 TD weeks followed by the 3 reception week. 

Would rather see
QB
RB
WR
Flex (RB or WR or TE)
Flex (RB WR or TE)
TE
K
D

That gives people more flexibility on how to build their team. Some load up on RBs, some WRs, some try to find a happy medium.

He was referring to the consistency problem, which has been solved already by using the boring ol' traditional FFL roster format.

I think the current iteration of the league shows that except for one or two players it makes more sense to play a 3rd string WR than any TE so why bother putting that in as an option?

Really, most of our issues this year would be solved by keeping the league size down to a small army rather than the current horde.

12 is about all you can really take in a league before it just gets retarded. Then again, it always fills up in a day when we do it in July and people complain.

Also, I agree with a forced TE spot. Without that aspect it makes having the top receivers the winning factor in the game instead of some decent balance.

76.18-76.33  :crying_panda:

Stupid Ronnie Brown.

GG league lol.

I was all set to win by .21 points before Cutler chucked that int.  :awesome_for_real:

I need Schaub to get injured getting off the bus.

I accept Ricky Williams as my Savior. 

So 3 weeks in a row I should have started Alex Smith instead of Payton Manning.  :ye_gods:

Hey, I might make the playoffs.  Woot!

All I need is for the Ravens D to lay an egg tonight, and we're playoff bound!  Because I couldn't possibly lose to the worst team in the league with everything at stake steak, right?

I don't think the Ravens will win tonight, but I'd lay good money that they will score at least 2 points to beat the Roosters. Sorry.

How the fuck did my team ever win 4 games in this league?

Looking at the numbers again that #8 spot in the playoffs looks like it's going to be bloody by the time the dust settles tonight.  If Ray Rice lays an egg tonight I'm still going to be sitting 7&6 with ~1010 points which should put me ahead of the Roosters, Bloodsuckers and depending on how Green Bay's defense performs, Unsponsored.

Ya, fuck Denver so being unreliable, they put up 19 points.

Ah well.  Here's to hoping GB defense scores eleventy touchdowns.

The SF defense put up 45 points for me one week.  It's not impossible. 

Crosby is going to kick nine 52 yard fieldgoals tonight. You just watch.

Don't beat yourself up too much.  If total points is the playoff tiebreaker, I think I am going to slither my way to the last spot despite your betrayal.  Barring Ab's Crosbstravaganza tonigh.

Ugh. Frustrating season. I drop the last four straight to totals over 100 when I have decent days (1 in the 70s and 3 in the 80s). In my must-win week I have the third highest total in the league, and lose.

Good luck in the playoffs to those who made it.

Roosters, I didn't total shitcan you - I just made sure you had to play the #1 seed for the playoffs. ENJOY!

Let's please enshrine this thread so that we can remember next year: if the tight end is going to be allowed at all, you need to require a tight end slot. Having 4 potential WR slots thins out the talent way too much. Also, don't autodraft.

I sure know how to limp into the playoffs.  My team is terrible.

Ended up 6th in points and 10th in standings.  That's quite a spread.

Haemish edged me out for dead last...by a point.

Fuck us all in the ear if we ever try this rostering setup again. The point swings every week were legendary.

I feel less bad about squeaking into the playoffs with a 7&6 record now that I noticed that the best in the league is only 8&5 and barely 100 points more.

Actually - playing the #1 seed will probably work in his favour as my team is NOT very good and I still am not sure how I even ended up in first place.

All my running backs went to IR lol.

Go Jerome Harrison, you're my only hope!

I have been horribly MIA on the boards this season. Maybe smack talk is best left to others.

Playoffs begin!

Come on, Anquan, don't fumble your only catch of the night!

I deserve to lose benching McGahee like I did.

What the fuck kind of crack was I smoking when I took out Vince Young for Jason Campbell?

Same crack I was smoking when I started Benson against the Charger Defense.  

Edit: I think you're going to be fine.  The Giants secondary is suffering from the injury bug.  If Campbell gets off to a good start, it could be a big night for him.

I thought I was gonna eeke that one out on the SKins eraly 4th quarter drivem until it ended sack-int.

Thank God Tomlin tried that onside kick, or else I'd be guilty of the worst coaching move of the day   :crying_panda:

NEXT YEAR I WILL SHOW YOU ALL  :angryfist:

You and me, Nebu. Good luck. While Yahoo's prediction forecasts a victory for you, your team's dependency on only 2 games makes the outcome very hard to predict. Neither KC nor Jacksonville have any playoff hope left, but New England and Cinci do so at least you are on the right side of those contests.

From a match-up point of view, I am in good standing and I like that Moss hedges Brady's potential success somewhat.

Good luck! Winner gets...nothing. Maybe a title.

Good luck to you as well.  I think that you really have the edge here for the reasons mentioned.  I don't like that I'm so dependent on two matchups and may shuffle things later in the week depending.  To be honest, I really thought I was going to lose two games ago and I got REALLY lucky that I didn't lose this week.  I guess that's the way it goes in head-to-head. 

As the old sports cliche goes "I'm just glad to be here and the good lord willing, things will work out."

The ducks lined up for you Nebu. Congrats.

Thanks Shiznitz.  I had a very lucky run down the stretch. 

Heh, that's sick getting 125 points in the final match. Gratz.

WE'RE #3!
WE'RE #3!
WE'RE #3!

Well, barring a Monday night collapse, that is...


Anyway, grats again Nebu (you won last year, didn't you?)

No, I didn't win last year... at least I don't remember last year.  I think I came in 2nd in the JV league two years ago (or something like that).  I've also had some good luck in the pick-em and the NCAA tourney brackets. 

Thanks for the grats.
