Well that was an annoying discovery.

I've got two QBs, who both play late games today. One of them has an injury, so I was stalling as long as possible before making a decision about whether to put the injured player in my lineup. Turns out, unlike my other league, ALL players are locked when the first Sunday game kicks off.

I'd like to suggest that we revisit this rule. It really is unfair when you have players in late games whose status is questionable. If they were playing early games, their teams would release information about them early enough to comply with our current deadline. But with late games, teams often wait until halftime of the early games to announce player status.

hmmm...thought I had it set this way? allot of details in the setup of these things...as just about everything is customizable in MFL.

Anyone object...as my intent was to lock players as their games start.

I didn't realize it locked them all at the early kickoff either. I agree with changing it.



I would like to thank Carl for the freebie this week. The one week that my team actually puts up the kind of numbers they're capable of, I could have won with 1 point.

I will set this as soon as I find the right place to do it...not where I thought it would be.

A good thing about having a 24 point lead...is well it's 24pts...and I have your QB's favorite target as my WR#4.

Hoping for a lot of passes to Malcolm Floyd and anyone else not named Vincent Jackson.

Sorry guys I dont know what happened,Why I got 0 points??? I thought I did my pickups and lineup on fri before I went camping with the scouts. I guess I did something wrong!!! just not sure what it was lol.and this was the week I really wanted to win lol.

Got lucky and pulled a W in our league this weekend. Now, I have Rogers back but have Johnson and Steve Smith on bye weeks.

 

[AirGoofy]

Rogers is back, but no Megatron, Steve Smith, or Bradshaw. Going to be a rough week. Made a lot of waiver and FA moves to try and get better. Let's hope for some long shots.

Good luck

Thanks. I checked out your receivers, but really didn't have anyone I could trade you. I thought about making a trade offer for Wayne for TE Gresham, but that's all I could give up and that's not really a fair trade (for you). But, I picked up Laurent Robinson as a FA against a Seattle Defense, so I hope the Cowboys feature him in the slot receiver this week.

The Pick Em league is getting a bit more difficult each week with the spreads. I only have a 1 game lead. Cowboys are favored by 11. I want to pick the Cowboys, but not sure I can trust them enough to put up that many points or play defense. I think I've picked that game wrong each week this season.

I'm having a good week but it does not matter. My opponent has not logged in for 2 weeks and has a zero-point lineup.

This is a real pet peeve of mine. If you are going to be part of a fantasy league, you have to be part of it the whole season. It is not fair to the other owners that every team playing you has an automatic win. Also, maybe you took a spot away from someone who would participate.

That's my rant.

It's a good one. A friend and I talked about writing and publishing a Fantasy Ethics book, to address your rant above and things like trading a player to another manager with a wink-wink agreement they will trade them back the following week.

My fantasy rant is that I decided not to start GB defense as I thought Rivers would throw too many touchdown passes. Problem is he just threw 2 TD-INTs to GB. Ahhhhhh!!!

The question is do I have 100 points in 2 games tonight and tomorrow night.

If you do, then I'll be peanut buttered as I gave you an extra 30 points.

I didn't start GB defense because I thought Rivers would put up a lot of points. So, I spotted 16 points there. Then, I picked up McGahee and Tomlinson off waivers and FA, and went with Tomlinson over McGahee as he had the broken hand and was "not favored" in the matchup. I spotted you 15 there. So, much for my judgment in fantasy leagues. I'm afraid to go check my pick 'em league.

Plus, with Vick, Forte, and Wallace, you have a really good chance. I need one of those Looney Tunes characters that kicks themselves in the butt over and over again.

Guess I'm having a pretty good day.
158.85 point so far, despite leaving about 18 points on my bench. And I still have one player to go, who's averaging better than 20/game.

Rogers may be close, but I never count my chickens.

Horrible... grounds for not being invited back into the league next year.

 

[Grooovertoo]

Oh, sure...the week I decide not to play McGahee and he runs for over 160 yards. Not bad for a guy with a broken hand.

And 2 TDs?

 

[trennr]

Not wanting to count these games before they are over...but there may be a change in the top of the Donald division.

anyone else hoping Matt Forte has a perfectly miserable night?
