  1. Since I'm hands down the single most dominate team in this league, I'm going to allow JStarr to set my lineup for the week. Aside from Greg Jennings you can start whoever you want, it doesn't matter since I'm going to win by easily 40 either way.

    You have until Thursday morning to seal your own fate.

    K.

    Good luck with that.

  2. Ah I've got CP3, Kobe, Rudy Gay, Westbrook as stars and some decent pieces like Marion, Davis, Crawford and Dalembert. Solid start for the team. I can build the rest as the season goes along.

    Can't be any worse than my having $20 left for a whole roster after the CPU bought me LeBron slightly above market value and Gasol for dollars on the penny.

  3. All fantasy leagues that don't give defenses points for kick return scores should die painful deaths. Yards, I understand, but no points for touchdowns? Fail. <_<

    (This may or may not have anything to do with Brad Smith being the only thing making the Bills relevant right now.)

  4. No one's potentially at risk of injury on a bunt for a hit during a no hitter. There are more than enough plays every week where someone can be hurt in a football game, so bull rushing your entire defense during the "victory formation" is foolish. If/when they hurt someone else's QB don't be shocked if other teams target Freeman purposely. The ultimate irony would be if he was the one QB that got hurt on the kneel down simply because another team is trying to give Schiano a taste of his own medicine.

    When they outlaw the victory formation, we won't have these problems. I'm with Lint.

    Someone on the offense gets injured because they weren't paying attention for that one last play? Their problem and their team's problem. Play until the clock says 0:00 or don't play.

  5. I lost to JStarr by 4 points. That is just awful.

    People should be used to losing to me by now. :shifty:

    The worst is leagues where you deal in fractions of points and you go to bed Monday night with a win, then wake up Tuesday to find you lost by a quarter-point thanks to a stat correction.

    That has happened. It sucked.

  6. He's more upset that someone could just grab Morris before anyone else had a chance. Fair point, I guess, but it's week one and we're talking about a Shanahan coached RB, were you really going to drop someone to pick him up?

    There would be a different case every week, has little to do with Morris.

    Again, my job is to be listening/staring at the Titans game every week, and it's pretty difficult to compete when everyone else can be skimming every boxscore or watching RedZone and adding/dropping at will.

    Either set of waivers is fine, as long as claims run until Tuesday. Thank you.

  7. I don't know if I've raised hell about this before, but the fantasy league (the JaMarcus one, at least) needs waivers put in. Now. Some of us are working during games and being forced to focus on just one, rather than being able to sit and surf every game to find who's the breakout guy.

  8. Mark Reynolds has hit 8 home runs in 7 games. We keep him around just for that.

    Was glad to be at Camden Yards tonight for a meaningful game. Crowd was cheering from the Cal Ripken ceremony before the start of the game all the way until after they poured out onto the streets after the ninth. This wave is gonna be carried for the rest of the homestand, I'm glad to finally get to experience it.

    Reynolds' strikeouts are also good for generating brisk summer breezes, are they not?

  9. NFL players are grossly underpaid compared to other sports, but MJD signed his deal when it was fair and now suddenly sees guys getting more money and himself putting up better numbers than them. It's tough luck, but that's the nature of contracts. Owners have all the power and it's not fair, it should change, and for that I side with the players. But the fact is MJD signed his deal and was fine with it when he did, if he was holding out for more money back then I would take his side a bit more than I do now.

    NFL players are UNDERpaid?

    Compared to the longer careers, better post-career quality of life and much more exorbitant contracts in MLB and the NBA, yes.
