I barely beat him last week. Anyone sitting Brees is nuts.

Try facing Brees when he puts up 52 and then losing by 1 :rage:

Good luck Josey!

Good luck with your championship game. Sometimes you just have to go with your gut.

Thanks hatch. Foster's in for a career day tonight.

This is for a TD league (I know td league stupid, blah blah blah). Have only one spot open, who should I play?

M. Austin
J. Finley
D. Bowe

Austin has a TD each game back, but will he be the guy who gets open or Dez or Robinson?

GB didn't seem like much without Jennings who's out again. Finley had 3 td last tiime against Chicago.

Bowe hasn't done nothing since week 3.

Remember this is a TD league. 3pts is awarded for every 100 yds rush/rec, 6pts/td

So did the guy I'm playing in the finals :banana;

But Houston's defense decided they didn't want to show up at the end of last night, so I only got 6 points from them

schweezly · 12-24-2011, 04:58 PM

****ing Romo :cry:

Slack · 12-24-2011, 05:06 PM

Two straight weeks with a TDless Gronk.

I'm up 102 to 53 right now, currently got mccoy, seahawks playing against matthews, dan bailey. Have turner and kasay going up against brees and roddy white monday night. It's going to be close.

parker/slc/gc8fan · 12-24-2011, 05:18 PM

I think I may win my championship. How I can only guess.

My line-up (you may be able to tell I've had a few injuries for a ten team league)

Brady
Torrey Smith
Donald Driver.
Nate Washington
Cedric
Cj Spiller
Gronk
Akers
and GB D.

Thanks to my opponent for starting Romo and Boldin.

i want to be in this league of yours.... I love taking money from morons.

parker/slc/gc8fan · 12-24-2011, 05:21 PM

I didn't want to play for money.

come to think of it, Neither did the woman I'm playing.

I beat the last gambler last week.

FaastLegacy · 12-26-2011, 11:27 AM

So, the championship. I've got a 21 point lead and Julio Jones left to play. He only has Roddy White. Fingers crossed.

FaastLegacy · 12-26-2011, 11:55 AM

Here's an ethical dilemma. One of my other teams is in the third/fourth place game, I'm down 18 points with colston, graham and kasay left to play tonight and third and fourth place don't get anything so the game is irrelevant. BUT, this is a keeper league and next years draft position is the inverse of this years final standings.

So, would I be a scum bag if I pulled my guys tonight to throw the game since it doesn't mean anything and thus I'd get the better draft position?

b1aze · 12-26-2011, 11:59 AM

No. Strategy man! I'd do the same.

Neek · 12-26-2011, 11:59 AM

Yes you would be a scum bag. But the league is stupid for not giving anything to 3rd place to avoid this mess.

My champagne is chilled...tonight I need Darren Sproles to not blow an 18 point lead vs. Michael Turner.

I wouldn't. But I also don't believe that any position is better than another...at least definitely not that late in the draft.

I had 6th pick this year and went up against the guy that had the last pick in the draft.

I decided against pulling them. It's not worth pissing off the guys off in my five year old league for one better draft position.

(even though the guy I'm playing started a couple guys who were out)

parker/slc/gc8fan · 12-26-2011, 12:51 PM

Seems blowing the game is the obvious strategy. Why not take what you get for not winning?

So glad as a Niners fan I had the best Niner of the year. 175 pts from a kicker for the year isn't bad.

96accord · 12-27-2011, 12:45 PM

Thanks Tony Homo for making me lose the playoff's! 2nd place because of him (and Helu didn't play)

I pussed out and started Brees, but I won my championship game by 35 so either option would have gotten me first place. Hope everyone else was as fortunate!

lostmymind · 12-27-2011, 03:55 PM

I won my championship by 33. our league actually ended up with the number 1 seed (me) playing the number 2 seed.

I won my championship by 25 points because my opponent had Tony Romeo. w00t.
