Likewise. I'm seriously considering starting Todman over Moreno if Jones-Drew is listed as inactive.

Sickrubik: I just want to pre-congratulate you on your Finals victory over me in the JV league. I seem to have a penchant for finishing second in FF, having done it many times before, so it seems assured. Also, I am seriously considering starting Andy Dalton vs Minnesota instead of Drew Brees vs Carolina, so that should seal my coffin shut nicely.

I think I am going to risk it. It is Minnesota, after all...surely he can put up 25 fantasy points on him.
I know this is a bit against common logic, but considering Brees is on the road in Carolina, I am thinking Dalton has more upside - and I am going to need a couple players to explode this week if I'm to have any chance.

Well, Rivers DID outperform Alex Smith.
Still, if Nick Foles can not do anything for the rest of this game, and Atlanta's passing offense shits the bed tomorrow night, I can still win my league. Go Niners!

Figured I'd take a second and begrudgingly congratulate Haemish on the Yahoo Pick'em season. Skirt-wearing bastard mopped the floor with the rest of us this year. Kudos to you.

I am pretty sure he cheated. Somehow. Not sure how, but he definitely cheated.

Meanwhile, the NFL.com Playoff Challenge is Cyrrex's to lose because I was dumb and set my second RB as Gore instead of Moreno. Prater > Hauschka, though.

If Prater is better than Hauschka, then it is only by a half scrotum hair. They are numbers 1 and 2 percentage wise, and both top 5 in total points. And with Prater kicking in the thin air at Mile High....
Nah, who gives a shit, they're just kickers. But anyway, Hauschka is ice cold.
In any event, it seems like the strategy of picking the Super Bowl winners and selecting players from their teams is the way to do this. Barring something extremely unusual, I am going to have one of the best scores in the entire population. Spreading your picks across across several teams seems to be a bad idea. It's disappointing in a way...it makes this format a little less interesting than it should be.

Well assuming his line up for Round 4 is the same as his Round 3 line up, everyone else better be betting on Seattle and the Broncos have to shit the bed.

Kudos to you.
Finishing second last year, I vowed to do better in pick-em. So much for that idea. Great picks this season. I'd call you Haemish the Greek, but I don't think that paints a positive picture.

Everyone else even remotely close had too many San Francisco guys last week, and my lineup is basically the same as Cyrrex's, except that I'm not getting a multiplier on Moreno. So the only way he can lose is if Moreno sits and Prater outplays Hauschka.

Seriously, the fucking Thursday games are the worst for this shit. Thursdays are not football days unless it's Thanksgiving!

http://www.businessweek.com/news/2014-01-31/nfl-official-says-thursday-football-games-can-match-sunday-nightThe fact the NFL is trying to posture about Thursday games shows how crappy they were all year. They are trying to unload the garbage and get another network to pay for the privilege. The problem is the same as Monday games, the schedule is set at the beginning of the season. Sunday night can flex the best game into that slot, making it the best broadcast for that day. Thursday? If you bet on the Green Bay v. Chicago as a Thursday game, and both teams shit the bed at that point, you have an immovable dud. Also, what network is going to be dumb enough to replace their Thursday primetime lineup (a night known for TV watching) with a bad NFL game? Not only that, but the NFL wants to retain the rights to show it simulcast on their network, so you split the audience? The NFL is out of its mind. This is as stupid as the ProBowl Fantasy Draft thing. Nothing makes that game relevant.
