Dropping Keller after today for Mike Williams or Meachem.

Keller's only scored in three games this year, and I believe all were before Holmes' suspension ended.

Just wanted to show you guys the most competitive FF league I've ever been in. $200 entry fee for each team, winners gets a grand. Top 6 teams get into the playoffs. Here are the standings with two games left:

1. 8-3
2. 6-5
3. 6-5
4. 6-5
5. 6-5
6. 5-6 (Me)
7. 5-6
8. 5-6
9. 5-6
10. 3-8

Still anyone's game...this is the best league I've ever been in, simply because no one is giving up.

Similar to the one I am in. It's been a pretty frustrating year though mainly because everyone of my buddies thinks he's a football guru now.

8 team league:

1. 7-4 (has won 5 straight)
2. 7-4 (lost 4 straight)
3. 7-4
4. 6-5 (me)
5. 6-5
6. 5-6
7. 5-6
8. 1-10

Top 4 make it. The 8th seed has had the worst fantasy luck ever. His team is around 4th to 5th overall for pts for with around 1450pts but has 1720pts against. The next closest team has 1553 lmao. He played me last week and put up a 145 point week but I had the vick/jackson show and threw up over 200 on him. I can't believe he hasn't quit yet.

Updating my $200 entry fee pay league heading into the final week of the preseason.

1. Bad Boyz (8-4)
2. alex mykokis (7-5)
3. The House of Pain (6-6)
4. Victorious Secret (6-6) (ME)
5. ?????????? (6-6)
6. Child Please (6-6)
7. BRO Bunch5 (6-6)
8. YO Momma's Bed Sucker (6-6)
9. THE JAMESGANG (5-7)
10. Lombardi's Prospects (4-8)

Last week, I beat THE JAMESGANG 191.5 to 183.5. He had Frank Gore. :smug:

So, here are the match-ups for the regular season finale. 6 teams make it into the playoffs:

Bad Boyz (8-4) vs. alex mykokis (7-5) - This is pretty much for bragging rights, as both teams have already secured a spot in the playoffs.

Victorious Secret (6-6) vs. Child Please (6-6) - The winner will get into the playoffs. The loser will need some help.

BRO Bunch5 (6-6) vs. The House of Pain (6-6) - The winner will get into the playoffs. The loser will need some help.

Lombardi's Prospects (4-8) vs. ?????????? (6-6) - Robbie is in with a win, but the Prospects have been on a hot streak lately with a three-game winning streak heading into this game.

THE JAMESGANG (5-7) vs. YO Momma's Bed Sucker (6-6) - This is one of the most interesting matches. Randy is in with a win, but if JAMESGANG wins, he could throw the final playoff spot into a a four or five-way tie.

I went 3-0 again this weekend in my fantasy leagues. It was the final week of the season for the 2 high stakes leagues and both of my teams are on fire. I've only lost 1 game out of 8 games in the past 4 weeks in those leagues. I've now won 7 straight weeks in the free bragging rights league and since it is using NFL.com default scoring, the season goes for 2 more weeks.

Picking up Brian Westbrook off of the waiver wire is a smart move for everybody needing an RB. With Gore going out for the rest of the season, he'll be getting the majority of the snaps and he should be as healthy as he has been since 2007. Great WR option this week is Deon Branch since it looks like him and Brady are back on the same page again.

 

[leaffan]

Fuck fantasy football.

Gore gets hurt and I don't find out till today. The second last place douche bag who has no chance of making the playoffs picked up westbrooke. I'm the commish and straight up thinking of rigging it.

You don't have a waiver wire?

Everyone in my league is on waivers until Thursday

Is that Canadian rules fantasy football that doesn't have a waiver wire? :shifty:

No for the most part guys don't do shit like this since most don't take it overly serious (there's no money or anything in this league) This one guy though has done this a couple times this year already. He doesn't even have him in the starting lineup. He probably won't even be in the league next year at this point thanks to the complaints I've received.

Been running it like this for 3 or 4 years and this is the first year this one guy has been in it.

You're an idiot.

 

[MrBill]

You're an idiot.

Who is the bigger idiot, the commissioner that failed to implement the waiver system that every league except his in the free world uses and then acts shocked that some peckerwood took advantage of it or the guy who is 11-1 over the past 4 weeks in his 3 leagues and points it out to him?

:smug:

lol there he goes getting all mad again. Doesn't take much.

:smug:

 

[Maize]

I just did the math on my entry fees in each of my six leagues. Looks like I might actually lose money this year. First in a while. I will probably win at least one league, but would need a strong finish to not lose some money.

 

[Fappin Raptor]

The pay league I'm in doesn't have that waiver rule either. Went to go get Westbrook because I have Gore and someone snatched him up. My backup RBs are Forsett and Hightower, my other starter being Hillis. Kind of screwed at RB now.

 

[theMINI]

Gore fucked me over this year. Needed 11 points to get a W and likely make the playoffs instead Gore gets me 5 points and gets injured for rest of the season.... Now I need to win next game and 2 other guys got to lose so I can sneak in playoffs. FUCK

 

[~Chance~]

Dwayne Bowe has been saving my ass for the past couple of weeks. He has averaged about 25 points these past 3 weeks. I could have won a game last week but I forgot to start Rogers, and sit Bradford. Fucker beat me by 3 points.

 

[Krebs]

start 2 of each and a flex, nonppr, touchdown heavy:

chris johnson v jax
mjd v ten
forte v det
tolbert v oak

roddy v tb
fitz v stl
stevie johnson v minny
mike will TB v atl

RB-CJ
RB-OPEN
WR-Roddy
WR-OPEN
FLEX-OPEN

its not that they arent good enough. all of these guys have good matchups for me this week and i cant figure out who to start. give me a reason. i can go look at lists all over the internet...what do you think?

 

[MrBill]

Another week, another 2 wins in the bag with a 3rd extremely likely tomorrow night. This is the 1st week of the playoffs in my 2 high stakes leagues so I'm stoked about those wins as 3 of the 4 remaining players finish in the money.

Alamo - 142.98 @ 82.42
MDK - 65.73 @ 86.56
USAA - 74.30 @ 81.11 (Brady, Welker & Edwards remaining for me to Holmes for my opponent)

Picking up Vick has been gold for me all season. Even when I traded Vick and Brandon Marshall, I ended up with Rashard Mendenhall, Wes Welker and Tom Brady in return and they have been tearing it up.

If I can place 2nd or higher in either of the high stakes leagues it will offset the entire cost of my garage renovation.

:smug:

 

[MrBill]

Thanks to Tom Brady and Wes Welker for contributing to the annihilation of my opponent tonight. Final score 127.28 to 88.31.

Almost feel bad for the guy since he had won 9 straight weeks but got bounced by me in the first round of the playoffs. Since there is $1K on the line, I'll get over it.

 

[Tailback U]

I'm out of of the playoffs.

Should have started Schaub over Orton and Benjarvus over Chris Johnson. I thought about doing both and was close to but told myself not to.

I hate fantasy football. Seriously think this will be my 3rd and final season doing it. It's just too dumb.

 

[Rudi]

Looks like playoffs will be in my money league teams future...If I win next week I get the 3 seed, if I lose, Ill be tied for 4th but I currently have 170 more points than the team I would be tied with so Id get the spot. Legggoooo
