Tough fantasy day for me on thanksgiving day...


If i win i make the playoffs-lose and i am out!!!

Even though my players yesterday did well- Leveon Bell and rashad Jennings. they both left the game with a head injury... If i do make the playoffs, then it is very possible that i play the first round without my top 2 RBs... and would have to start Lamar miller and Chris Ivory... Dont like those chances...

I was helpless against Reggie Bush & his best day in months. Last week it was Moreno & Brady.

Have yet to have anyone play yet & he's up 21. Good news is Dallas' D & kicker didnt go nuts for him.

The good news is that you have a couple extra days off before week 14 games.

I would not bet on Bell suiting up as bad as he looked walking off the field, but Jennings could have a pretty good chance.

I didn't watch the Pitt game so I only read that it didn't seem that bad. So hopefully he'll pass the tests this week and be good for next week.

I'm in the same win and in/lose and done situation and I got blasted yesterday. Not only did Jarrett Boykin lay an egg for me, my opponent had Demarco Murray go off. I'm currently down 61-13 where Romo got me my only points. He had Stafford, Murray and Antonio Brown yesterday. It's not looking good for Team Show Me Your TD's.

I don't know who said it didn't look that bad, but I did watch the game and it looked really bad. It looked bad enough that the Steelers' offensive players were down on one knee in prayer as Leveon Bell lay seemingly unconscious on the turf. After after a few minutes, Bell was helped to his feet and he stumbled to the sidelines with assistance that was clearly needed.

A player's recovery from an injury like this one depends on a lot of factors and said recovery can vary a great deal. While there is no such thing as a "minor concussion" there was absolutely nothing minor about this one.

While it is possible that Bell is ready for week 14, it is also possible that that ill-fated goal line carry could be his last of the season. Owners should hope for the best, but be prepared for a multi-week time table here.

I had Stafford, Jennings, and Boykin playing yesterday. Stafford put up 19, Jennings put up 15, and Boykin had 0. Still projected to score 123 though, currently winning 34-32 heading in to the weekend, so I should be alright.

In a 2-qb, PPR league, I got 94.5 pts between Stafford, Bush, and Murray. Not so rough in that aspect.

Well i was happy to see the Cowboys use Murray to run in 3 scores....so then i checked the scoreboard
and low and behold ------i can not believe that our F O O T actually played the LIONS D and their 27 points offset Murrays's banner day...

Kudos Foot....:doh:

Thanks Barilko! Yea after losing by 1 stink-in point last week mainly due to a high powered Cheifs D scoring negative 4 points. Heck, I never even knew a D could score negative points, I knew I had to shift defensive gears. Luckily the lions D where the only D left on the wire that stood out to me. But if i am being honest I didn't expect those numbers.

I mean I take fantasy football very seriously and in my circle of friends I am the most successful (have won the most championships in a much shorter time playing to boot) and I'm playing with guys that have been doing this way longer than I. I just have never been able to get anything going with the MBBRL guys, but I am confident i WILL get one soon. I mean the guys on here and your included seem to have as much passion and knowledge I feel i have if not more but call me crazy I think the guys assembled here could be dare I say be some of the better players in da whole word!

In the way that you act crazy at times and then pull off some smart moves. Meant as a compliment, dude. We are alike in two respects: loving a good trade and trying to figure out where lightning is gonna strike.

Chef let me say I can't speak for the rest of the boys but am I so glad you've come into our arena. I took that statement just like you just explained it. I guess I do act crazy at times but that is only because I am always trying to find the hypothetical lightening.

But thanks again for the compliment. Me really loves compliments!
