Futbol Americano Verboten?
« on: November 22, 2012, 02:06:10 am »
I'm up against the Owensboro Muttoneers this week, and can't for the life of me figure out who my opponent is

San Fran's Bitches :: c'est moi
Banana Town Beeves :: The Mayor
Magreaux Dogs :: AugustWest
Malcolm Jamal Warner :: Miles
Venomous Monkeys :: Nabu
UoP Lygars :: Ash
W-T-Jefe :: lprkn
Pwease Dun Huwt Me :: Choop's zombie
THA SUGAH RAIN :: A-CAP's zombie

Owensboro Muttoneers...lfm? Paul? Lister? One of AW's daughters?  Owensboro being in Kentucky this seems likely, but it could be someone sucking up to the commish as well...

I have never been in Owensboro and the child is not mine.

if i hadn't andre'd my team with shit trades once bye weeks started, i don't think i'd have let it turn zombie. unfortunately i didn't have the confidence to hold on to my roster as it stood, and as a result i started stinking up the field. since it isn't important to me, i haven't bothered, but hey why not at least set my lineup eh

I just realized that I'm the 2nd most active in making roster changes. I'm also in 2nd to last place. So I feel it's important to point out that when it comes to total points, I'm actually in 6th place, or 5th to last place. The head-to-head and points against measures are kind of bullshit because it's not like I can manage my roster to prepare for my opponents. Just sayin' is all.

He's my friend and colleague Greg.  It's his first experience with fantasy sports.  I'm afraid he caught on quick and took the main chance with an advantageous trade with Choop.

A quick study indeed. My streak is in peril.

i couldn't even believe that game. watching brees score less than one fantasy point was thrilling and heartbreaking at the same time (because it's my opponent this week, but it's been me before). meanwhile my kicker and defensive back WAY overperformed, and even sproles didn't do too bad considering.

jaydub i looked up our last matchup and you won 182 to 109 and kicked off my midseason losing streak. maybe this time is karma? i guess we'll find out monday night

2nd week in a row, lesson learned. Don't sit Russell Wilson just because it's an away game. There's 24 points I could have had.

Agree on all counts.

I've been very pleased with Wilson this year. I think he has a chance to become a franchise legend. We need one of those.

Jonathan Dwyer, Bryce Brown and Witten playing well over what was expected has almost made up for the rest of the team laying a total egg. I can't even be too annoyed with Brown's fumble given the rest of his performance.  Still, Choop's team is within 6, and Hakeem Nicks is still to play.  Hopefully the Washington offense will keep the Giants off the field and limit the chances Nicks has for points.

Christ almighty, I'm having a good year. On the verge of clinching a playoff spot in this league. In my other (work-based) league, I was 10-2 coming into this week, tied for first and three games up on the rest of the league. Played the team I'm tied for first with this week, and frickin' CRUSHED IT.

Of course, this means I will lose in the first round of the playoffs.

The Texans have the best record in the league at 11-1. I'm really looking forward to their game against New England next Monday.

Don't forget about the Falcons' record, also at 11-1. Sunday's game at Carolina should be good: Matt Ryan vs. Cam Newton. I'm kind of torn who to root for because of this silly game we're running.
