    i decided to keep my hands of Saints-players!

    The only one i own in 3 leagues ist Henderson who i picked up of the waiver wire!!!

    my biggest mistake this week was to start Chris Brown over Jamal Lewis, man!!! But i?ll still win that game, unless Kevin Curtis scores 29 points tonight. So i can live with that. The only other player, i benched who outscored a starter was Braylon Edwards, i started Berrian instead, but i?m also gonna win that one, just need 10 points out of Mcnabb tonight.

    But what the heck is up with Lee Evans??? He really pisses me off, even thou i already benched him this week and i also got Edwards, Berrian, V. Jackson and Roy Williams in a league where i only start 2 WRs.

    Buffalo's offense is struggling out of the gate. And they play in New England next week, which doesn't bode well. I already dropped Loseman in one league. I had Evans rated high coming into the season. I think he'll bounce back - he's probably a good guy to trade for right now. But wait till after next week.

    I need philly's offense shut down tonight!

    under 21pts for Westbrook!
    under 30 points for PhillyD/LJ Smith

    If I get those, I improve to 2-0 in all 5 of my leagues.

    How's everyone holding up? Did you draft Drew Brees, Reggie Bush, or Deuce McAllister? Is Phil Rivers your starting QB? Is Vincent Jackson your 2nd WR? Is Lee Evans your 1st WR? Did you pick up Cincinatti D as a spot defense this last week?

    Is (gasp) Reggie Brown your 1st WR?

    I know. It hurts. I'm here to help. Don't do anything rash.

    I'm 1-1, losing this weekend even though I had Palmer & Braylon Edwards racking up the points. I'm hurting at my flex position as none of the guys I drafted for that spot are producing, Devery Henderson, Fred Taylor & Morency who hopefully will come back this week.

    Well I have Reggie Bush and Reggie Brown.

    But luckily for me Brown is #3 behind Roy Williams and Javon Walker. I'm seriously considering benching him....except my other option who I was banking on as a big time break out player is Mark Clayton, who has somehow actually been worse than Brown.

    Oh yeah. Mark Clayton has been a major bust. You should probably pick up a WR off waivers. Looks like McNabb is continuing the tradition of refusing to settle on a #1 WR (although Kevin Curtis seems to be leading the pack). And Clayton has been overshadowed by that other guy whose name I can't remember and am too lazy to look up (DeMetrius Williams?)

    I've got Brandon Jacobs, Greg Jennings, and Terry Glenn all out of commission in one league and Brandon Jackson not producing..

    This is leading me to start Bobby Engram at 3WR and Jason Avant at flex...

    Yikes.

    That is rough. In my keeper league I have Brandon Jacobs, DJ Hackett (who I dropped), Devery Henderson (who has sucked), and Phil Rivers (who has sucked).

    Luckily, I was able to pick up Derrick Ward and I have Brandon Marshall (my only correct sleeper pick this year, although I'm much better at picking busts), and I have Jake Delhomme.

    At least Jacobs will be back in a week or two. I doubt he'll do much but I'm just hoping he has one good game so I can trade him. That was always the plan. He couldn't stay upright for just one week. But if I didn't keep Jacobs, I would have kept Cadillac (who sucks and is in a terrible situation) or Andre Johnson (which was torturing me until he got injured).

    Steven Jackson is making baby Jesus cry :sad:

    In two leagues this week, I started Josh McCown. Why? WTF was I thinking? God, I should be taken out back and shot. :mad:

    Reggie Brown and Mark Clayton continue to haunt me.

    In my 2WR league, Steve Smith and Torry Holt netted me a massive 7 total points.......I lost by 8

    That is rough. Reggie Brown and Mark Clayton both look like complete busts already. And it always sucks to lose by a point.

    Tomorrow, I need Colston to outscore VY for my keeper league but for Brees to not score too much so I can win my other league. So, basically, if VY scores or if Brees throws a TD to someone other than Colston, I'll be very upset. This is the kind of crap that keeps me watching games well past the point where one team has obliterated the other.

    Oh, you're going to love this. :lol:

    In one league, I had Romo and Kitna benched. In the other, I had Favre, Leinart, and Romo benched. And in the third league, I had Leinart benched.

    It was Romo vs Chicago, so I tried to stay away from that. Leinart vs the Ravens, and Kitna was facing the Philly defense with a concussion. And Favre vs the Chargers D all sounded like bad matchups on paper. The Browns defense had allowed 10 recieving TDs over the first 2 weeks! I thought McCown would be a stroke of genius, now I look like a dumbass. :sad:

    edit: BTW, I just dumped McCown in all 3 leagues, and picked up Trent Edwards in one league. Yes, Trent Edwards. Why are you laughing? :eek:hmy: :lol:

    I hope you've learned an important lesson from all this: Never bench ANYONE for Josh McCown.

    You should never bench Kitna again and while you made a good call on Leinart who sucked, like the guy above said, never bench a competent QB for McCown ever again

    i?d do the LT deal in a minute, get Heap and Cadillac.

    if you don?t wanny do this trade, i?d offer him something like Young+Coles/Edwards for TO/Williams.

    I would definately take the deal. LT WILL break out, try to get Heap since Vernon Davis has been having a bustacular year so far.
