I almost made it to halftime. Now down by 0.46. It sucks because out of the 8 teams in the playoffs, only 3 scored over 77 points, and of course I played one of those teams.

need to upgrade my kicker and (hopefully) grabbing the Houston D for the next round.

Don't even want to risk it, using my Waivers claims.

Recording each week of the season for each player in a spreadsheet...

So how good was LeVeon Bell in week 14? (47.8 pts)
The next best player (standard leagues) was Tom Brady. (32.1)
A difference of 15.7 pts.

Carlos Hyde (23.8) was the 8th-best fantasy performer in week 14. And Bell more than doubled him up.

I realize the season is still in progress, but there are some notable players comparing the first 8 games, to the last 5...

D/ST - the Bucs have been the hottest D/ST averaging a whopping 17.8 points per week.
K - Matt Prater has been the best kicker the last 5 games averaging 12.8 points per week.
QB - Rodgers has been the hottest (28.2), but Cousins isn't far behind (26.1).
RB - Bell has been the best back the last 5 with 27.1 ppw.
WR - Antonio Brown has been the best wideout (14.9), but nipping at his heels is the slow and decrepit Jordy Nelson (14.1)
TE - Only 1 TE has averaged more than 10 points the last 5 games. Eifert at 10.3 ppw.

good for updates during the week, often times 10-15mins quicker with news than roto or other sites, but that also depends on your league settings on FA and waivers.

In 2 of my leagues a handful of guys are pretty active, so if you want to have any kind of edge on post-waiver pickups, up to the minute info is necessary.

But yes, overall, twitter is filled with bitter losers that want to piss on other people's lives.

I also thought it quite appropriate that the guy's profile pic was taken at a bar. :nod:

I don't know who the scouting/executive "genius" was that told Ty Montgomery that he needed to switch to the WR position if he wanted to stay in the NFL, but he looks like a RB that could start for several NFL teams.

Sad that it took the Packers this long to figure it out.

Saw that Andy Reid took a time out to ice the kicker (which I think is one of the dumbest things to do).
Succup missed.
But the "icing" timeout gave him another shot at winning the game.
Succup made it.
Reid and KC loses.

I which the NFL would run a stat of the percentage that that "ice" timeout actually is successful.
Cause I don't think it is.

I'll bet the success rate is lower than going for it in fourth and 1, and they hate doing that
