How 'bout them Rams!

Yra, guess who I took in the Eliminator too... is there anything else I can possibly be more wrong on this week?

How 'bout them Rams!

Man, I had a feeling...............even took the Rams in our weekly picks this week(money league).............and to top it off I sat Adams for Britt last second in my money league.

Ball could be out for the season now. He officially goes down in history as one of the biggest fantasy busts of all time.

Some of us were a little more hesitant on Ball. On the plus side, his career isn't over just yet. Thomas Jones was labeled a bust until he got to Chicago where shredded his "bust" tab.

My line of reasoning goes like this... If a player runs hard right out of the gate (in his first few attempts or games), then you know he will be a special, promising player.

Well Joe. I don't think either of us deserves to win this week. I will be rooting for Leveon to get exactly 10 points so we can tie. That would be fitting.

Wow. Monkey earns his first win against Bandit!!!

Congrats Smo!

At one point this morning I had Gray inserted for both Ball and then later, Tate. FML... not that it'd change the outcome, but would look better

yes and if that were the case with Ball I'd agree. I got caught up in the hype in 2 leagues with him. One I've managed to recovered via waivers, the other not. For 2014 he is the poster child of a bust . ...

Ball has competition from AP. Martin and Stacy get honorable mentions.

Just came in here to congratulate Monkey for getting off the schneid.

So what's worse, a first-round pick who underperforms for a few weeks and then clogs up your bench while you wait for him to get healthy (Ball), or a first-round pick who underperforms while staying healthy on an explosive offense who you feel you can never bench (McCoy)?

And finally it's the Monkey who shocks.

Well, they both have consistency going for them as far as scoring TDs.

From a fantasy prospective probably the latter - - I'd have a hard time cutting McCoy - while I did wait too long, I felt no remorse dumping Ball. ....

I didn't get a chance to watch Pats/Colts. In my money league I needed 11 pointd from Bradshaw and Allen. Can anyone explain how together they couldn't even combine for 1?

Frustrated.

Bradshaw broke his ankle and Allen suffered a high or low ankle sprain...
