Well I look like I am about done. MaGahee went down with injury and that pretty much kills me. That and I picked the wrong receiver to replace the injured Mason.

Bah you still have a nice lead on me. I just have to hope that I get mega points from NE's defense. It is close though.

I'm done for. Fitzgerald and Bennett both had multiple TDs. Manning hasn't done much yet either but it won't matter in this one!

Off to the loser's bracket!

If I had played Kennison I would be in great shape. That was one of those ennie meenie minni mo picks and the guy I can't whose name I cannot say won.

Over the last 4 weeks, Drew "point a minute" Bennett has averaged 30 points a game for me. 33 Catches 500+ yards and 8 TDs. If I had a reliable running back at all right now I would be calling this whole thing over.....unfortunately the fucking bengals have a running back who could be jacking up major yardage, yet continue to let a bad QB throw passes on 3rd and 1 so the defense can get a quick score. Will anyone step up for me this week?


On a side note.....there is a chance that the top two teams could both be out after tonights game. And this after the Shockers got blown out by the Shitmen!

My team laid the worst egg of the year this week. I won't be repeating as champion.

What a great finish to the week. My Steelers need to win just one more game for Home Field and I survived the loss of my Rb early in the game. Thank you Tom Brady.

Fucking pathetic game by the Patriots. Most depressing. Not that they lost or had turnovers cause I really don't care about that. The problem is the defense couldn't stop the dolphins. THE DOLPHINS! WTF!

Oh well, I didn't really deserve to win anyhow. My team is held together by backups to backups and last minute additions. Besides, how could I ever cheer against Favre?

Gratz Aluminum Curtain. I would say it will be exciting to play you this week, but the title may come down to whose starters stay in the game longer. Kinda sucks for such a great season to end based on whose players are sat or not for a playoff run.

Gratz Killmoll, I am going to lose due to the defensive player I think, your guy had 10 tackles and mine has 7 and I lead by 2 points so I am done. Great season and gratz again. Does this mean I played and lost to you twice and lost by a total of less then 2 points lol.

It all comes down to the defensive player and any changes they might make overnight to scoring. I would like to say fuck Kerry Collins for making this so close that we will be sweating it overnight!

You'd have gotten more points with Manning only playing 3 plays than you did with Collins for the whole game.

Damn this is going to be incredibly close. Zach Thomas had 10 tackles while Derek Brooks only had 7.

Yay I took 5th!

I would have gotten more points playing Marvin for the half he played and Farve for the time he played as well. Sucks but oh well.

LOL I was looking at my running back pick ups this year. I had a lot of lineup changes and this was my running back situation. I started the year with Michael Bennett and Travis Henry.

The bottom of the list was the early season. Once I got Goings and MGahee I was pretty much set, but wow what a list. 19 changes.

Michael Bennett (guess I missed him)
Shad Williams
Antwuan Smith (again)
Anthony Thomas (again)
Larry Croom
Antwuan Smith
Nick Goings
Michael Bennett (Again)
William Green
Anthony Thomas
Chester Taylor
Sammy Morris
Amos Zereou (however you spell it)
Willis McGahee
Mo Williams
Travis Minor
Jamal Robertson
Aaron Stecker
Ontarrio Smith

Thanks for letting me be part of the league I had a blast with it. I liked the modified scoring where kickers were not as vital to the game. I always thought it was dumb that a kicker could come in and kick 2 field goals and score more points then a back with 115 yards in the default leagues.

That's quite a list tyek. I drafted Donnie Edwards and stuck with him the entire season. Luckily, he had a good year.

I'll have to read the scoring rules on defensive players. Our yahoo league seems to have delux rules with all sorts of scoring. I'm anti defensive player but if we have them next year I'll need to put more thought into it.

Grats to the top three!

You're kidding me. Is that the NFL one? I didn't bother looking at the standings as I had picked San Diego so many times. Are you sure I won?

What's the link to that? What is my username on that? I need at least that much to have my password emailed to me : )

Gratz Tyek! Ofcourse you know you get to run next years Veeshan League. :wink:

I'd make changes in the Defense and Defensive player and I'd get rid of individual points for Return Yards. I'd make return yards sololy a defensive team score and take ints, fumbles, sacks away. I'd make the defensive player score higher on sacks, ints, and fumbles.

You did a nice job this year cheese head.

Next year, we'll try again to get only active participants. There weren't too many dead teams this year.

I say just dump the D player. We already draft a defense/spec. teams, so I think it's redundant.

Winnow, I assumed it was you. The winner was named Win Ner or something like that. Maybe I am wrong. I forgot half the games too, ended up lgging on and picking the late Sunday or Monday game after I realized my mistake.

Yeah that's me. I can't access the page even logged in for some reason.

I picked every game before the start of the season. Do I get a bonus for that? : )

Edit:

Wow, I kicked ass. I just got to the site. I lost my second game of the season. I thought you were eliminated after one loss. Suppose I should have read the rules.

If it was last one to lose a game, S Mart won his first 6 games.

Looks like I picked 14 out of 17 correct and was in the 98.5 percentile. Yay sports betting.
