Any comments about scoring cats, league settings etc welcome.
Do feel free to sign up or to invite other people to join. The key thing is people being active and not quitting after the draft because they were outbid for Tim Tebow and ended up with Kyle Orton.

This isn't that same league Owen. It's a different one. Whats with Yahoo thinking a Passing touchdown should be 4?
ALL touchdowns should be 6.
Worst part of Fantasy sports is coming up with a cool name each year.

is it a live draft or the salary one
Moonax

It's a live auction draft. I've set the date as late as I can so that we'll know who is injured and going to miss the season etc
Ermaximus - I am not sure why you can't join. If you pm me your email address I'll send you an invite which should have a direct link (although the url in the first post should take you to the league).

I've moved the draft fwd to the 1st Sept at 8pm BST, which is 3pm Eastern. It is a saturday rather than a sunday. I know people work on saturdays so if it is a problem let me know.
The alternative Sunday date (26th Aug) has no available later draft times than 5.45 BST, which is 12.45pm Eastern. Which is maybe too early for people.
I am happy to do either but people need to say ASAP so I can change it if necessary.
I can set up a pick em league if there is interest.

I'm not in yr. league but I just did my draft for our 12-team league last night.
Gonna post it here just because this is the fantasy football thread.
QB - Aaron Rodgers
QB - Andrew Luck
RB - Darren McFadden
RB - Willis McGahee
RB - Jonathan Stewart
RB - Bernard Scott
WR - Marques Colston
WR - Pierre Garcon
WR - Randy Moss
WR - Kenny Britt
WR - Braylon Edwards
TE - Vernon Davis
TE - Coby Fleener
K - Mason Crosby
D - Bears
D - Falcons
Pretty thrilled by my team this year. Was 2nd overall pick, and we did a snake draft. Arian Foster went 1st, so I took Aaron Rodgers. Took McFadden second. WR is hurting a little bit but Colston should be good, and the others have a chance to be phenomenal. Gonna be hit and miss there probably, but who knows.

Here's my team in a 12 teamer.
QB- Philip Rivers, Robert Griffin
RB- Darren McFadden, Fred Jackson, Michael Bush, Mark Ingram, Ben Tate
WR- Victor Cruz, Dez Bryant, Torrey Smith, Kendall Wright, Alshon Jeffrey
TE- Kyle Rudolph -_-
K- Robbie Gould
DEF- Patriots
My WR depth is lacking if someone's injured.
I had the 8th pick.

Just did my first ever 16 team draft. Bleh. There were so many picks between picks it was hard to get used to it. I'm not horribly upset with my team. But at one point I was looking so far forward, I picked up Kevin Smith with Miles Austin still on the board. It wasn't a bad pick... and I love Kevin Smith as when he's healthy (especially in a PPR league) he can be a beast. I'm definitely kicking myself a little for it though. I feel like I'm gonna regret it.

I was wondering why I don't seem to have anyone on my team that would have gone in the first few rounds. Then I realized it was an auction draft and Sheep probably wasn't there and left the the autodraft to not pic anyone for a while. This is gonna be an uphill battle.

Well it is a challenge and a test of your fantasy skills.
Maybe create a 'trade block' and see if you can arrange a 2 for 1 deal with someone. You have some good players but lack depth.

Since I can't bring myself to think about the Saints, I'll just complain about Fantasy Football.. I was down FOUR points going into Sunday nights game, still having Martellus Bennett and my brother having no one else to play.. He gave me a whopping ZERO.. Eli targeted him early but that one big play he broke got called back for holding and Manning never went back to him..
I hate this season..

If there was a game people would played where they draft real life football players and put them on some sort of paper team... a "fantasy" team if you will... where yards and touchdowns and such translated into points for your "team" then the person who drafted Doug Martin would be in a very good spot right now.

Have Seattle defence, Alfred Morris, Lynch and Charless all go craxy, Mike Wallace score 2 td's, Calvin Johnson, RG3. Best week ever.

Eliminated in both Yahoo/TPWW leagues I was in. Currently alive in a yahoo league from an old AOL wrestling trivia fed I was in. Didn't even make the fucking playoffs in the money league I was in.

Leaning toward Alexander against Carolina over Boldin against Denver. Boldin has been hot the last two games though.
Still, don't know how Caldwell will run it especially against a good Denver defense. Grr

Should I start Witten against the Steelers or Hernandez against the 9ers??
Witten will prolly have better numbers but I am playing against Brady so it's nice when TD's get taken away from yr opposing qb..

Roddy White is starting baby! Losing him and Davone Bess probably would have done me in. I have to play Dallas Clark as a flex with Bess out, LaFell likely out and Beanie Wells playing like shit.
Hopefully Brady, Lynch and Forte have monster games for me again.

They both scored 0 so it ended up a wash.
And I won :)

Traded Jimmy Graham back in like... week 4 for Brandon Myers and Mikel Leshoure. This turned out to be an amazing idea.

I should have been in the finals in both my leagues, but I took out Russell Wilson at the last minute for Matt Schaub because my opponent had Owen Daniels and Andre Johnson. Lost by 4 points. Romo would have won me the game too. It's my money league too, but I'll still try for 20 bucks next week.
And I'm happy to finally make it to the finals in TPWW's original FFB league. My first league, and always my favorite, for like eight years now or something.

Chris Cooley's Penis makes it to the championship despite being the 7th seed, beating the number 2 and number 1 seeds. Nice, however, I now expect the wheels to fall off this week.
Thank you Bryce Brown for sneaking me into the playoffs.
Fuck off Vernon Davis for sucking more balls than Kano's mum.

<font color=goldenrod>I'm having my best fantasy season ever, making the finals in 3 of my 4 leagues. And yet I can totally see myself going 0-3 today...especially since TWO teams I'm playing have AP and Peyton. Any owner who had the balls to risk their entire fantasy season on 2 huge injury risks deserves to win their league.
Good thing it's not a keeper league...AP is the clear #1 pick next year and Peyton is probably a first rounder or at least early second rounder. No chance one team could get both of those guys in a traditional draft.</font>

Congrats Moonax, especially on walking through Seeds 1-3 for the championship.
My team was loaded on offense this year, but didn't come up big this week. And I did it without a legitimate QB for most of the year. Happy with my results, and I won 20 bucks in my other league, so things are ok.

Thank you. After my team under-performed all season it got hot at the right time.
I think I got lucky in that with Daniel Thomas going on IR it meant that Reggie Bush was finally allowed to score some touchdowns, and my D came up big when I needed it to.
A pretty good turn around from my team after week 11 when I managed to lose against a team that had stopped being updated and had 3 players on a bye week and I still managed to lose.
It's been a really good league. Hope to see everyone again next season.

I only made the playoffs in one of the three leagues I was in this year. while it was a disappointment, the league that I did make the playoffs was a keeper league. We were allowed to keep two players, losing the draft picks that we selected those players in the previous year. I opted to keep Aaron Rodgers in the 1st and Jimmy Graham in the Eighth. Disheartening as it was, I had to let Marshawn Lynch go back into the draft as he would have cost me a fourth round pick.
My starting lineup was Aaron Rodgers, Trent Richardson, Doug Martin, Stevie Johnson, Justin Blackmon, Jimmy Graham, Steven Ridley as a flex and a random D and a kicker. On my bench was Tony Romo
After 8 weeks, I was 4-4. I decided to make some critical changes. First I shipped Doug Martin for Mike Wallace. This was before Doug martin went nuts for 4 weeks.
Then 2 weeks later, I changed the landscape of my team with 2 trades in 10 days. The first was trading Stevan Ridley and Aaron Rodgers for Michael Vick, Arian Foster, and Demarco Murray. I shipped Rodgers out because I could not keep him next year and neither could my opponent. I didn't trust Ridley down the stretch because of the run defense schedule he was going to face, his fumbles, and Danny Woodhead and Shane Vereen cutting into his touches. Vick was always going to be a backup to Romo and Foster was what he is. Murray was acquired to gain insurance as he was going to be coming back from his foot injury. His time on my team lasted 10 days.
10 days later, I traded Trent Richardson, Demarco Murray and Owen Daniels for Dez Bryant and Marshawn Lynch. This trade was originally proposed to me with Leshoure in the deal instead of Murray but when I sent Murray back it was immediately accepted. I didn't need Daniels because of Graham, and while I liked Trent Richardson and his value, I decided to roll the dice. I wanted Dez because I wanted the double dip points he would get with Romo. And Lynch was in beast mode.
The long and short of it. Five straight wins including the playoffs, and my second consecutive league title.
My final roster was Tony Romo, Arian Foster, Marshawn Lynch, Mikeal Leshoure, Dez Bryant, Mike Wallace, Jimmy Graham, the Packers D and Steve Huschuka.
Final score of the championship was 140-124. I had 121 from Lynch, Romo, Dez and the Packers D. The other 5 got me a combined 19 points. I am officially buying a Dez Bryant jersey

Lost in the finals of my fantasy league by 20.
I started Vick Ballard over Mikel Leshoure and TY Hilton over Jason Avant.
I have no fucking idea looking back why I did those two things. If I hadn't I would have won. Could have gotten $300. Ended up with $125.

3rd place in the TPWW league, not bad.
If only Eli could have done something at all week 15. A reasonable 10-11 pts instead of the 1.4 he got that week could have won me the league. I think next year I'm gonna be on a strict no Giants drafting strategy.

Some waiver wire gambles really work and others fall flat on their faces - very glad I picked up and played Bryce Brown at the end of the season, very glad I didn't play Curtis Brinkley this week after all the Yahoo 'experts' were telling us how he was going to be the Chargers lead back.

The "experts" over analyze everything. They said don't bother picking up Alfred Morris at the beginning of the year because of Shanahan's rb commitee history. Glad I didnt listen
Moonax
12-27-2012, 04:29 PM
That and they have to fill in copy.
I seem to recall following their advice and picking up Lance Ball on account that because Moreno had been inactive the previous week it was obvious that Ball and Hillman would split the carries in Denver.
The other thing is that more often than not, the guys that they start bigging up were snapped up 3 weeks ago off the FA wire.
It seems that you don't need much talent to be an 'expert' blogger on fantasy sports.

Won my cash league. I missed the draft and was auto drafted. My qb's throughout the year were RG3 and Ryan Fitzpatrick who I picked up on waivers. Grabbed Matt Schaub at the deadline. Won my last 4 to qualify for the playoffs which I did by winning my last game by 1.3 points and finished 7-6. Once I hit the playoffs I went on a tear scoring 195 and 160 to reach the finals. Was down 13 going into Seattle vs San Fran. I had Seattles D and he had San Fran and basically needed Seattle to blow out San Fran and hold San Fran to low points. Well I ended up winning my game 130-125 and picked up a nice pot of 140 bucks and bragging rights. By winning the league with a friggen auto drafted team. Put a lot of work grabbing players off waivers so I'm pretty proud.
