Fitch is saying he'll move to MW if Kos wins the title.

Hey, it's Sports Illustrated not me. I figured he would have been the first pick gone - I had him preranked so I'm not sure why it didn't shuffle him to me when my turn came up.

I was in the bunch that missed the live draft.

Moving on since that is going nowhere...

UFC cut Todd Duffee in a rather strange move.

A few guys missed the live draft which is why those are still around. I already swapped to the Ravens defense and picked up Chris Johnson.

So I have an open window to take advantage of my fantasy league at the moment so I need some advice. This is my roster:

QB:

Matt Schaub

Matt Ryan

RB:

Ray Rice

Jonathan Stewart

Jerome Harrison

Jamaal Harris

Ronnie Brown

Thomas Jones

WR:

Andre Johnson

Larry Fitzgerald

Braylon Edwards

Vincent Jackson

TE:

Antonio Gates

Kicker:

Nate Kaeding

DEF:

Dallas

Overall I'm pretty satisfied at how things turned out for me, but I'm sure there are a few players I could make upgrades to. Here are the top 10 still available in each position:

QB:

Brett Farve

Ben Roethlisberger

Eli Manning

Jason Campbell

Kyle Orton

Carson Palmer

David Garrard

Matt Cassel

Matt Hasselbeck

RB:

Chris Johnson

LaDainian Tomlinson

Willis McGahee

Kevin Smith

Amhad Bradshaw

Laurence Maroney

Darren Sproles

Reggie Bush

Steve Slaton

Jason Snelling

(Julius Jones is in there somewhere)

WR:

Wes Welker

Santonio Holmes

Terrell Owens

Hakeem Nicks

Mario Manningham

Austin Collie

Jerricho Cotchery

Santana Moss

Patrick Crayton

Chris Chambers

TE:

Tony Gonzales

Visanthe Shiancoe

Heath Miller

Greg Olsen

John Carlson

Zach Miller

Jermichael Finely

Todd Heap

Kevin Boss

Fred Davis

K:

Mason Crosby

Jay Feely

Matt Prater

Lawrence Tynes

Jeff Reed

Dan Carpenter

Robbie Gould

Sebastian Janikowski

Rian Lindell

Ryan Succop

DEF:

Ravens

Packers

Broncos

Cardinals

Bengals

Steelers

Panthers

Bills

Chargers

Patriots

So that's what I am working with. Other than picking up Chris Johnson are there any obvious moves I should make?

Yes, but anxiety was not what Karo's personal issues were that caused him to be released from the organization in the first place, an addiction to painkillers was. TRW implied that because Karo had anxiety issues about fighting overseas for the first time that he hadn't gotten himself together from the issues stemming from his Zuffa release when in reality the two are completely opposite issues. To compare anxiety about being on the other side of the world and fighting for the first time to a drug addiction is jumping the gun.

No, you jumped to conclusions. You saw one piece of evidence (which was hearsay to boot), overanalysed the fuck out of it, and drew a judgemental conclusion. Jumping to conclusions is a process, not a measure of precisely how judgemental the conclusion was.

In his defence, the Australian promoter was the one who said Karo wanted to go on first. Karo also confirmed it and said he was worried because it was his first time fighting overseas and he thought his family would be worried about him. So not really hearsay.

Well considering he implied that Karo went on first because he hadn't gotten himself together while the real reasoning is out there is, which has nothing to do with a painkiller addiction (Karo's issue), and twisted the story to fit his opinion of the situation I'd still say he jumped to conclusions quite a bit. Hearsay to boot.

I joined the Pick Em league for a little something to do: Crispinksi

Less than a year after he wasn't fighting at 106 or ever again in UFC?

I welcome Paul Daley's return in spring.

Dana said shortly after Karo's release that if he got himself together he would welcome him back.

Don't remember reading that anywhere, and even if he did say that, the guy's had one fight since his release, which he supposedly had to get moved to the first fight of the night because he was having anxiety problems. Hardly what I'd call getting yourself together.

Well mister inside knowledge of Karo's personal life, what else do you know about him that the rest of us might be missing? Did he have eggs for breakfast?

I'm not saying he HAS gotten himself together, but he must have done something if Joe Silva and Dana White wanted to make that call. None of us know what he's done in his personal life so stop jumping to conclusions.

Axl rose is easily the largest waste of potential the music industry has ever seen. It's quite sad to watch at some points.

Over the years I've lost a lot of interest in Disturbed for some reason, but after listening to that U2 cover I must say I'm interested in hearing the entire album. Great stuff right there.

Oh yeah, I knew there was something I forgot to list. Watched the yesterday.

Guys, I'm at home bored and sick so I'm basically laid up in bed watching movies and playing MW2. I'm pretty bored out of my mind with the video games right now so recommend me some fairly new DVD's I may be skipping over to watch of the next day or two.

So far, in the last couple of weeks, I have already watched the following so I am looking for something else:

Kick Ass

Youth In Revolt

Cop Out

Death At A Funeral

The Losers

The Hangerover (for the 100th time probably)

Role Models (for the 900th time probably)

Any suggestions for me?

Codename: Tenka.

So are you telling that Machida and Danielson shared an apartment at one point? That's epic. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall in that living room.

I would love to see Bisping-Sonnen. I think Sonnen is only going to get more dangerous in the next couple of years.

What's up with that first tweet though?

I'm just going to skip the cleverness and say I'd like to hammer her.

I actually had to Google that to see exactly what it entailed, but just by reading the name I originally said "duh".

I hate this movie.

They've since been reinstated.

I don't care about Fedor at this point. Right now in the Heavyweight division I care about guys like Carwin, JDS, Cain - people that are fighting who they are given and accepting how the game works. No offense, Fedor is great, but is aura is pretty tarnished and he is not known casually at all.

Wow, has it really been a year since this died?

Ok, this thread is done. I will start going through all the entries and opening voting.
