Can't complain about that start. Big Ben got me 20 points. My opponent had less than that from Ward and Mendenhall.

Aso is going to play against Wayne looks like, they kept talking early week he was out but Wayne is a must play every week. Floyd is supposed to be out.... Joe Webb at QB so i'd go Knox and a real QB.



I'm defending my title as well in my keeper league. Facing the guy who's beat me twice already this year.

What does the class say: Maclin or DeSean Jackson? Had Jax in my lineup all week GUARANTEE whoever I sit blows up, they have all year.. Feeling pretty good about my game today, this guy hit the jackpot when Kolb went down and he received dumbest trade in the 6 year history of the KEEPER league: the guy with Brady traded Megatron/Bradshaw for Moss/Forte the week before he got traded. He talked shit for a week thinking he was brilliant.

Falcons TQB
C. Johnson
A. Foster
Wayne
Jax
Witten (8)
Chargers
Kaeding

vs

Eagles TQB
Charles
Green-Ellis
Calvin J
Colston
Lloyd
Cowboys (3)
Longwell

More fantasy nerd than you!
Last years prize:


LOL champion gets $195 Jostens ring plus $5. Regular season 1,2,3 get $$$ as well. I'd rather have all money but yea I joined a few years into the league..

MANNINGHAM VS GB
KNOX VS NYJ
MIKE WILLIAMS VS TB

.....I think i'm ridding with Man, but I just want confirmation that I'm not crazy. I think the Jets are going to be fired up and I think SEA has no damn QB right now.....


(I also have Forte on the bench for the same reason. Rex ain't going to lose today....it's going to be an ass whoopin'!!!)

Wait do you have Mike Williams TB or SEA? If Williams TB I would start him because he plays very well at home. Manningham could have another performance like last week but, I wouldn't count on that. If you have Williams Sea then definitely start Manningham.

This is my final lineup of the season:

Josh Freeman TB QB
Miles Austin Dal WR (got me 16 last night)
Steve Johnson BUF WR
Mike Williams TB WR
LaGarette Blunt TB RB
Danny Woodhead NE WR/RB ( because MJD is out I went back and forth between him and Marshawn Lynch hope my gut is right).
Jason Witten Dal (picked up off waivers earlier this week got me 10 last night)
Shayne Graham NE K
New England DEF

Thank goodness the person I'm playing squad is hot trash (he somehow upset the #1 team last week in our playoffs...and the #1 team has like 130 points already so far today!)

Between Forte, Knox, and Gould....I left nearly 50 points on the bench!!!


...and still wining by 20+ with only Vick and a kicker left on his team and Brees/McCoy on mine

Lol he must have caught him on the right week.

Did you end up starting Manningham?

The only smart thing I've done so far it seems.....

Because my damn bench is almost outscoring my starters....but yet I've built such a big lead that Vick would literally have to get roughly 50+ points to beat me (all my opponents playmakers didn't do shit this week!)


....Time to throw another 1 man party....because my team will win yet another fantasy football league!!! (and the best part...2/3 times winning since my roommate felt he could win against me in a league)

I hate having a week like that it just makes you sick seeing all those points just riding the pine.

I don't see Vick going over 50 in that game, I look for around 30 maybe.

By the way did you have Mike Williams Sea or TB?

Last year was one of my worst years and I got fifth place. My team was absolutely decimated by injuries.

This year the only huge injury was Gates and it hurt last week but, this week I grabbed Witten off the wire and he performed well yesterday.

This Tuesday night game is going to make me stressed for the next 48 hours.

My championship isnt going well. I have a 45 point lead, but he has plenty of guys playing Tuesday.

So...unless Akers scores 17 points + whatever Turner and Vick do, I'm advancing to my championship game. Which means a minimum of $180 with a possibility of winning $360 (plus whatever I may get from the kitty pool although that's a close race which is too close to call at this point).

Blah my team tanked today, 2 points each from Wayne and Chris Johnson my keepers sucked all year.

One point lead going into monday/tuesday... My Matt Ryan + Maclin or Jackson vs his Vick, Colston, Longwell... Doesn't look good unless I nail the Philly big game wr, passing tds are 3 receiving 6. I'm going to flip flop between Jax Mac for the next 2 days now. ALMOST sat Wayne and just played those 2 vs the other guys Vick but the snow and Indy's need to win kept me on Wayne. It's hard not to start Wayne...

And to answer the ring question every year it's a new ring. It's cool to show other fantasy guys but i'd rather have $195 instead of something to wear to the draft 1 day a year lol. Winner gets to pick the color and whatever you want engraved on the sides. I got my team name Footaball Ben Goo.

Bah... my Pro-Bowl calibre team got reduced to dust because of injuries. Coming into the week I led the points for in the league, and my worst week was week 1, where I got 75 points.

Today... Fitz, Megatron, Boss, Tolbert, Branch, and Kitna combined for 13 points, with another 15 by the Stealers D/ST. Still have Akers and McCoy to go, but I lost the trophy this year in spectacular fashion. I'd be surprised if I crack 50 points.

Sitting on my bench? Roethlisberger and Knox for a combined 40-somthing points, F. Jones for 8 - still MUCH better than Tolbert's -2 (!), Gates, MJD, and Gore, all done because of stupid injuries.

/end rant (although not really much of a rant)

I'm very glad I started Josh Freeman this week.

Should I start Webb over Rice for Tuesday's game? Or should I try to hunt down another WR? I'm about 16 pts down, my opponent has NO D left to play. I've got McCoy and a WR (either Rice or Webb)

I squeaked out a Super Bowl win this week, despite my Chargers DST getting lit up and Rivers having an off-week. Foster carried me, like he did all year, and decent games from Nicks and Zach Miller were enough to get me through. It helped that my opponent started Andre Johnson. I finished yesterday up by 1.5 points, with Colston still to go tonight. Had AJ played, it would have been close.

Are there any other WRs you can hunt down at this point? I think I'd rather take my chances with one of the NO WRs than either Rice or Webb.
