    This is a place for venting all your fantasy football frustrations with sympathetic individuals (or not) :beer:

    Also welcome are particular stories of instant genius and other assorted fisher's tales.

    ...WTF? Marshawn Lynch is looking like a top 5 back (I got Buffalo vs. Jax on my TV). I definitely think I dropped the ball and let my Jets bias ignore the good things going on in Buffalo...and my teams are suffering for it.

    I got a negative shootout with two early int.s for Drew (mine) and Peyton (his), AP (his) already has 10 points, the saving grace being that Minny seems to have forgotten about the big rectangle at the end of the field.

    Looks like Green Bay isn't going to be missing Burt anytime soon...

    I have Lynch in my big money league. Glad I did not fall into the trap you did. I almost passed on him.

    That said, in two of three leagues this past week I had the #2 total overall points, only to lose both leagues to the guy with #1 over all points in head to head match-ups. What a friggen scheduling bummer for me.

    In all fairness to Edwards, he led the league in drops last year as well. Its your fault for not doing proper scouting. :rofl:

    Yes, I know I'm an asshole.

    Your welcome. :up:

    Lost by 2 points. I had Romo-Witten he had Owens. Romo's two turnovers cost me the game.


    Tough loss but my team is strong. I will rise again.

    I got a question I thought I could get away with asking here, cause it would be kinda ridiculous to start a thread for it.

    But, my running backs are:
    Brandon Jacobs
    Ryan Grant
    Felix Jones
    Matt Forte

    I see Chris Johnson from the Titans on the waiver wire and would like to pick him up. There are no other positions that I can trim in order to bring him in. Anybody got any ideas?

    You want frustration?

    Week 1 I had Joseph Addai (hampered by injuries still), Marques Colston (out 3-5 more weeks), Dallas Clark (out 2 games already), and Tom Brady (season over) all starting. Now I've got Warner in place of Brady, Forte/Bush in place of Addai, Scheffler in place of Clark, and Driver in place of Colston.

    My elite team is now beatable. :/

    I got ass-raped today. Wayne, Jacobs, Chris Johnson, L.J. Smith, etc. Let's put it this way, I had more points from Matt Hasselbeck and Matt Forte on my bench today, than I did from 6 of my starters altogether. I got T.O. now, but I'm playing against Romo, so this is just sad.

    Why do I leave Roddy White on my bench?

    Why can't Brandon Jacobs put together a complete football game?

    Why did Nate Burleson have to get hurt?

    I got Jay Cutler, Marion Barber, Reggie Bush...but it's doesn't matter. I didn't get anything from the Bills D, Braylon Edwards and Plax.

    Amazing...two prime time WR's do absolutely nothing.

    Same here, I could have also won if McNabb didn't forget how to hand the ball off :mad:

    God, Marion Barber is killing me!


    I thought I was in okay shape, since I was up by a ton and he just had Barber & Rivers left... Goddammit...
