Is it bad thing that the theme from Young Guns 2 is stuck in my head anytime I make waiver claims, adds/drops and or lineup changes? ??

First off, congrats to you B! You called it: 90 and a touch. If I had known Fleener would become Fantasy relevant I would have dropped/traded Witten for a different D, but wanted to keep the Eagles for at least this week (all the while knowing it was a mistake to start them last week). So, at the end of my 3 game losing streak I'm actually feeling pretty good about my team ROS (and we all know how that usually ends up lol) as THE SPORTSBOYS haven't been at full strength for quite a while. Now, rolling with Murray,Foster/Blue,Jordy,DJax as my core should start paying off again...........should..............lol.

Not sure if Wil answered Bandit's question about playoff tie-breakers (feeling lazy)? Maybe Treff did? Anyway... if you click on the KOTF Projected Playoff Bracket link, it gives you the seeding the way the league was set up.

And if this isn't correct per Wil's "rulership" then it can be edited. Nice to see my name up there. I better enjoy it while it lasts. Speaking of which....

#1 Joe 7-4 (1102 points, checking to make sure with Treff and Wil, but I'm assuming if there is a three way tie for best record the tiebreaker of head-to-head no longer applies and would come down to points)
#2 Sam 7-4 (1089 points)
#3 Ram 7-4 (1062 points, but if the 3 way tiebreaker is still head-to-head then Ram would be the one seed based on beating both Joe and Sam head-to-head, Joe would be two, and Sam would be three)
#4 Fuzzy 7-4 (beat Tlance head-to-head)

Yeah, about the points... During my winning streak (games 2-8) I averaged 108+ points per game. During the last 3 weeks (even though I've gone 2-1), I've only averaged 89 points.

And I don't anticipate it getting any better in week 12 & beyond. Bell is on his bye. And my WR and RB are hit or miss. Mostly miss. If it weren't for the "Discount Double-Check" guy, I'd be a flabby loser.

 

[TREFF]

Yea.. as Joe mentioned, the tweaks that were made will be automatically accounted for when the time comes, although I know that doesn't help to provide good compelling, commentary in the meantime.

And, before I forget again, nice pickup on Murray Monkey, was really hoping he'd get to me, he'd fit right in with my team for the last three 3 weeks. .. throwing up Hail Mary's

Patriots signed RB LeGarrette Blount to a two-year contract.


Nov 20 - 8:20 AM


This has to be bad news for those who picked up Gray on waivers. ..... the Hoodie strikes again.

 

[wilwhite]

#1 Micro 75-46
#2 Chef 74-47
#3 BK 72-46 (wouldn't be interesting if the breakdown champ doesn't even make the playoffs)
#4 Smitty 69-49-3
#5 Shady 69-49-3

I think we'd better include:
#6 Trudem 66-54-1
#7 Harold 64-55-2
#8 Milk 63-55-3

because it's possible for any of them to take over the breakdown lead this week (with precise cooperation from Micro, Chef and BK).

Thanks - like several other owners, I've been desperate for RB help all year, so here's to hoping Murray can be productive and at least gain the lion's share of the backfield committee out there on the future LA Raiders.

Okay so according to the projected playoff bracket. That means Sam is the #1 seed, Ram is #2, and Joe is #3. Somebody with a mind smarter than me is going to have to tell me how in the hell that is possible. Apparently ESPN is using division record as the tiebreaker for the seeding as well, but what sense does it make to use division record as a tiebreaker for three teams that aren't even in the same division? Then Ram is the #2 seed even though he and Joe have the same division record and Joe has more points, but maybe because Ram beat Joe head-to-head? I have no idea but it's driving me crazy. I'm fine with letting ESPN just sort it out at the end of the year, as long as we think there is no advantage to the #1 seed playing the wild card, but it makes no sense to me. The division record should be used to determine the division champion only and not have anything to do with the seeding or cross division tiebreaking. I'm sorry to be a pain about this and obviously in the year's passed it has all worked itself out, but I just can't wrap my head around it.

Man. I'm so tempted to play this guy tonight it's not funny.............I'd be playing over Vereen, Randle, Britt and Hurns..............and maybe Foster if he isn't a go.

 

[wilwhite]

Looking good so far.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Amazing that the Raiders waited 12 weeks to play their best player.

 

[wilwhite]

Yowza.

Damnit. Well, he's looking good on my bench. :rollseyes:

So you snatched my Raider out from in front of me. . Then leave him in the bench. .. how rude

 

[wilwhite]

I just want to know if Treff started him in his crazy-bonus-for-long-TDs league.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Sporano really must not like coaching. Why would you have McFadden doubling Murray's carries when Murray has DMC ten fold in yards? And I thought the Bills were a joke!

The Bills might be the joke, but the Raiders are that punch line just makes everyone stare at each other in befuddled disgust

 

[TKOSpikes]

My bad. Looks like Murray has been concussed.

 

[wilwhite]

I hate this concussion crap. They really need to start using helmets that crush on big impacts, like motorcycle helmets. They can afford to keep replacing them.
