Ugh, such crappy luck that my backup (who had a fantastic match up) was injured during my starter's bye week. And then you guys all scooped up all the lovely one-week starter QBs.

I wanna thank the scumbags who perpetuated the evil lie that Ray Rice would be playing this week.

Well, actually, I want to say Harbuagh can die in a fire for only running the ball loving 8 times.

Just looked around the league and noticed in half the matchups there are players starting that were out or on bye with able replacements on the bench. Either everyone slept for 1:00 PM EST kickoff like me or have lost hope already 4 weeks in :smith:

Ok well it was only 5 people with two of em having multiple and bbf2 gets a pass for there being no QBs left. The rest of us just have pathetic 0s from a lack of production.

Riding the .6 points of Danial Thomas I squeak by Wasian to knock him from the unbeatens.


Lesson Learned: Start Miami RBs, not Giants TEs.

I kept hoping someone would fumble to take out your lead...too bad it was Darren Sproles, the one guy you don't have in your lineup.

Other lesson: never take Andre Johnson out of your lineup if you aren't gonna wake up before 10 gameday to fix that.

Also, just because Delanie Walker gets poo poo for targets and yardage doesn't mean he won't beat out the poo poo Giants offense.

Basically how I felt regarding the Miami defense the entire game hoping they would stop Brees completing passes to Colston or Graham. There is no goddamn stopping it.

I needed to get a mere ~18 points from Miami wide receivers last night to beat Zoltan Mesko. I think I know why I lost.


Well, that and I did not start Nate Washington thanks to ESPN's Insider projections which seem to be about as accurate as asking my dog to set my lineup.

Never listen to ESPN Insider projections. I like to click on them for a good laugh then reset my lineup to something that actually scores.

My backup QB is a big pussy who needs to play again and Rodgers is my main point maker who had a bye. It looked dismal any way I tried the lineup.

But THIS week, hopefully my team won't be complete crap.

With that last win, my streak is at 2 and I'm only 1 game back in the division! :D

Now if only those three other teams at 3-1 in front of me would kindly lose, that would be great. Thanks.

You drafted them. Who is your QB? I'll trade Palmer for him straight across and you'll have a QB to play. I'll take the loss with a bye week QB.

This is actually the best way to draft a fantasy team.

- Draft the best players avail, gently caress where their byes are

- Lose the one (or two) games as a consequence but at least your'e not shouldering one big name bye every week.

Do not try and score on the powerplay. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.

What truth?

There is no powerplay.
My opponent this week in the 20 has the QB and an RB that I own in my big money league. Go Wasian, kick my rear end
