Go for it, gentlemen.

[Th3R0CKSays]

Fuck Off

[Droford]

Im in..a couple days ago in fact.

Gotta do better than last place this year.

[Moonax]

I've spoken to MMM and he doesn't want to run his league this year. I am happy to do it, but if someone else wants to be commish then feel free to put yourself forward.

[Moonax]

Just as a bump - the draft for the TPWW league is set for 25 days time. If anyone wants in then just shoot me a PM.

[Nicky Fives]

I signed in Sunday.... auto-drafted to a league by Monday..... I got Drew Brees and I am fucking ecstatic about my team.....

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

If you're not The Nexus, then you aren't my fantasy football team and thus are against us.

[weather vane]

Moonax hook me up.

[Moonax]

If you're not The Nexus, then you aren't my fantasy football team and thus are against us.

And in english?

4 spots open in the league and 12 days till the draft.

[Moonax]

Moonax hook me up.

Did you get the PM with the info?

[Moonax]

Just as a reminder the draft is this Sunday 4pm Eastern Time, 1pm Pacific, 9pm UK time.

If anyone wants in then say and I'll send you the details.

[Y2Ant]

i'm actually going to be at the draft this year, no more pre-ranking for me :cool:

[Reavant]

Time to defend my championship!

[Reavant]

YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!!! the league is full!!!! how am i going to defend my championship???

[Crimson]

hahaha

[Y2Ant]

i'll be sure to give you a title shot next year mate :y:

[Crimson]

It's only 10 teams..12 would be better :|

[Moonax]

The league I am running still has spots open. But... because you can't draft with an odd number of teams (and we have an even number at the moment), unless there are two people who want to join I can't invite you. But if you find someone else who wants in I'll send you the details.

[Reavant]

someone else fucking join so i can get in on this

[ImpactPlayer365]

i'll join.

[weather vane]

missed the fucking draft... what a joke

[Droford]

BAM Sidney Rice is out for most of the year..decreasing my awesome WR depth just a little.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Drafted another team today. Like it a lot.

QB: Brady, Palmer
WR: Wayne, Sims-Walker, Harvin, Jacoby Jones, Britt
RB: Rice (picked him 3rd ahead of Jones-Drew), Moreno, Forte, Bradshaw, Cadillac
TE: Clark
K: Akers
D: Baltimore

I've always hated how Yahoo's default settings call for 3 WR spots instead of having a Flex position. Means you pretty much have to get a WR within your first 2 picks. Kinda just went with a "see what sticks" approach with the #2 RB spot, Forte might end up being a steal at least. Dude was a Top 5 pick in most drafts last year.</font>

[Droford]

I think I did a pretty decent job of preranking for the draft that happened today. I noticed that aside from Chris Johnson and Adrian Peterson, no RB scored as much points as the top couple QBs did last year so I didnt even bother blowing 50+ bucks on 1 RB when I ended up with 2 QBs that outscored all the other RBs last year and I got a decent RB for $9 in Ricky Williams.

[Reavant]

umm... you can only play one qb at a time right?

[Droford]

yeah..and?

[Reavant]

well it makessense to draft one elite qb, but to waste you pick and apparently money on two when one is only going to ever sit on you bench outside of a bye week is kind of dumb...


what do i know, i only won the league last year :D

[Droford]

what do i know, i only won the league last year :D

My two QBs combined cost less than 1/2 of what the top couple of RBs went for and each of my QB's (Schaub $17 and Rivers $15) outscored all RBs except Chris Johnson in fantasy points last year. I noticed when I was setting up prerankings that the league scoring is slanted in favor of QBs, so it didn't make any sense to me to go crazy and spend $60+ on 1 RB when I could get a QB that would provide just as many points for 1/4 of the cost, which is also how I ended up loaded with WRs who I am attempting to trade for another RB...but anyway.

If you take a look at the points last year, the only RB over 300 points was Chris Johnson, but there were 9 QBs over 300 points. and Johnson was outscored by Aaron Rodgers but CJ went for $69 whereas Rodgers only went for $31.

[Boomer]

But the point isn't to make out spending your money most efficiently, its to draft players that will score points. If you are happy with making solid buys, great. People make out just fine spending lots of money on picks too.

Not to mention, fantasy teams are usually made on the waiver wire much more than through the draft.

[Joey Slugs]

yahoo now has an android/iphone app specifically for fantasy football

[Boomer]

I hope the iPhone app is better than last year. Found no use for it at all.

[road doggy dogg]

I am going to WIN this year.
crossrine

[Moonax]

[road doggy dogg]

No way, Jahvid Best fantasy MVP!!!!

[Cooler Tom Schuler]

1. Is nobody running a TPWW Pick Them league this year?
2. Anybody still have room in a regular fantasy league?

[Reavant]

2. Anybody still have room in a regular fantasy league?

:(

[Cooler Tom Schuler]

That does not answer any questions.

[Reavant]

i was quoting you to bump the thread thus asking the same question

[Droford]

Im gonna kick everyones ass in both leagues...unless I suck as bad as I did last year.

Then obviously I wont.

[Droford]

Just eeked out a win thx to Phillip Rivers.

actually won in both leagues putting up some big numbers

[Skippord]

my team got off to about the same start as the Bengals

[Droford]

Im kicking ass and not even bothering to take names

[Droford]

I probably spoke too soon in the 1 league..damnit

need the saints to win in regulation and keep frank gore off the field

[Droford]

I just realized that Im #1 in both leagues and Im facing #2 in both leagues this week.



oof

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

0-2 for the Nexus. I feel like the real group now.

[Requiem]

I'm 2-0 right now in a league with some friends of mine. Not sure if I should play Dolphins D or Ravens D this week though.

[Droford]

Ravens are playing the browns and the Dolphins are playing the Jets.

gee..hmm..thats a real tough call there..NOT

[Skippord]

my team is worse than AIDS

what have I done

[Reavant]

no one is the true champ until i can defend my title :(

[Requiem]

Ravens are playing the browns and the Dolphins are playing the Jets.

gee..hmm..thats a real tough call there..NOT

Yeah, you were totally on with that one. Had like 5 people tell me the Ravens were a sure thing, but I was skeptical because of what they've done so far this season, and almost played the Dolphins cause I think they could be an upset for the Jets. Instead, I got a whopping 3 points from the Ravens, to make their grand total for this season to 13. Benching them next week, because I trust the Dolphins against NE more than Ravens against anyone at this point. Especially against the Steelers.

[Splaya]

Downtown Owenbrown versus Splaya in a battle of the unbeatens

[Droford]

Theres a pretty huge Droford to Win vs Chris Cooley's Penis battle too.

1 vs 2 AGAIN

[owenbrown]

What the Fuck? I might actually be the last unbeaten in TPWW's league?

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

What the Fuck? I might actually be the last unbeaten in TPWW's league?

Never mind that shit. I'm finally going to get my first victory in the TPWW League.

Here are your winners: THE NEXUS!!!

[The Genius]

The Geniuses suck this year

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Page stretch asshole</font> :mad:

[Triple Naitch]

Somebody give me some advice. Should I start Knowshown Moreno, who has missed 3 straight games and is questionable today? Or start BenJarvus Green-Ellis who scored in 2 straight? Green-Ellis plays at 1:00 and Moreno at 4:00 so I dunno if I can wait around for them to declare Moreno active.

[Moonax]

The South won't rise again, but Chris Cooley's Penis will.

Percy Harvin sends his regards.

Has Spilchuck given up?

I would say that you dont wanna start BGE vs the Ravens but I dont think Moreno is playing, so you are probably going to be forced into it.

[Triple Naitch]

Ravens average giving up 100+ yards a game but shut down Denver last week. Dunno how consistent Bmore's D will be.

[Droford]

They shut down Denver cause Denver is pass happy and doesnt run the ball anymore. Which is exactly the same thing that New England is doing.

It doesnt really matter cause Moreno probably isnt playing.

[Triple Naitch]

Yeah, I'm starting Ellis.

[Droford]

you only got like 7 points but that was probably 5-6 more than Moreno would have gotten you
