wow, again me vs danny for the 6th spot. last year it was me u n josh battleing for the 6th spot. im pretty sure it was the same situation cuz the scheule was the same as last year, n u beat me by like 10 points or something like that. funny it all comes down to the same thing haha

MFisH · Negus

there is only 1 possibilty for the 6th seed, it all comes down to me vs danny cuz one of us is guarenteed to be 6-7 and nobody else can be better than 5-8.

Jpoo · Guru

yeahhh like i said had you two been playing someon else and both lost i would have had a shot!

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Josh, do you at all regret your strategy of "trade first ask questions later"?

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Also, a funny note to point out. After 6 weeks of the glorious NFL fantasy season, The Wet Dream Team, coached by the always zealous Chase Cox was 4-2, and in 2nd place. Since then, I have won only 1 game, dropping 5. How I am still in contention for playoffs is beyond me.

As I said the only trade I regret is the Arian trade. I shoulda waited but I was too scared that his injury was going to be an all season long thing. Otherwise The rest are all fine

MFisH · Negus

what about getting vick? didnt u have him for like 1/2 before he got hurt?

Jpoo · Guru

all i agve up for that was Mathews, who hasn't done much himself. Thats a total wash

Jpoo · Guru

to put it in perspective.

Since week 8 (trade made) Mathews has had 32.2 points

since week 8 vick has had 46 points. And single handedly won me a week.

Not to mention I got Anquan and Shonn in that deal as well.

I wouldn't take that deal back in a second. How was i supposed to know vick would break 2 ribs and puss out?

MFisH · Negus

i guess, idk u made so many trades ive forgott when they happend or who they were for haha. i think there were like 7 or 8 trades and all but 1 included u haha.

im not trying to diss u, cuz sometimes trades work and sometimes they dont, but all i know is u went from mojo and arian foster (both top 7 rbs as of now) as ur rbs to start the season where u said u had the best team in the league after the draft (which was tough to disagree) and ended up in 9th place.

as for me, i thought i had a good stragey. my goal at the draft was to get a good qb for a decent price (stafford) 1 solid rb (jackson, who ended up being much better than solid til his injury), a stud te (clark) and load up on #1 wr's and depth. my strategy work to perfection execpt i got the wrong wr/te. i really wish i got jimmy grahmn cuz i knew i liked him but completly forgot about him. clark ended up being a huge bust with manning being out and then maclin was a bust with all his injuries so my team went to ****. its just so hard to predict whos gonna be good before the season but i really liekd my stragety

I never liked the idea of loading up on #1 WRs as opposed to RBS. You know those RBs will more often then not get 15-20 touches a game, whereas those receivers on a GREAT day will get 10. Just a numbers game and I don't generally like to right math. I also thought MoJo would get fuÇked from Blaine Gabbert and they'd load up the boxes like wow and make gabbert beat them, yet he's been able to continue to put up points. Another miscalculation. I also expected Daniel Thomas to carry the load in Miami, but Bush ruined that party. Pretty much I tried to build a team out of expectations of whats gonna happen. But in fantasy football that NEVER works out.

Example: Phillip ******* Rivers

I second this. My strategy until the day I die is, get 3 good running backs with my first 3 picks, then just go from there.

MFisH · Negus

so does everyone got in the blue ribbon game of me vs danny?

(i say blue ribbon cuz its for the 6th seed and as u no from last year, 6th place gets a blue ribbon!)

spread is danny (-21) from nfl.com fantasy projections

Who does everyone got, im taking bets!

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Well its official boys, after winning only 2 of my last 7 games, I won the one that counted, beating the lowly Commish Fish squad.

I have clinched playoffs, and at the perfect timing, I get Bradshaw back....

See you in the 'ship.

MFisH · Negus

my team sucks! i knew i was done once fred jackson went down, leaving my rbs as ben tate and cedrick benson haha. o well what can u do.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

I would pay money to play Nick in playoffs instead of Joe.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

With that said, CAMMY CAM CAM! What a stud.

MFisH · Negus

ya man 4 tds. i knew i was done before the week which is y i didnt talk any **** haha. my team was wack all year n i didnt really do much to improve it.

6ixty · Young Money

fish finished below... wait for it... MIKE KEARNS hahaha i dont think kearns was out of 10th place until just this weekend

Jpoo · Guru

Its Giants season now, no more fantasy talk from me!

forster · Senior Member

Hung on to the 2nd seed, heres hoping I can finally make the big game.

MFisH · Negus

if u dont make the playoffs, who cares where u finish. if i won last week i would be the dangerous 6th seed.

It's called pride Fish.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

I went 4/4 for making playoffs, I better win at least 1.

6ixty · Young Money

conference championship here we come! nothing like watching the rams vs the seahawks hoping the rams terrible offense doenst give up even 1 more sack when i was up by .14. not to mention the hawks blocked a punt and scored a td within the first 3 minutes.

i have already started my draft big board for next season (as im sure josh has). there are a lot of good sleepers next year

forster · Senior Member

put up 136 points on my bye week but can't even be happy cause joe put up 142 haha. please let me make the championship once in my damn life haha, don't know how many years i can expect to get a 1st round bye in a row.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

I put my blame solely on the Washington Redskins, I mean seriously. Who is there D coord? Can you not stop somebody, even when they know there going to him?

Not to mention, Julio Jones had GAAAAAAAARBAGE points at the end of the game. I got robbed.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Not to mention, Bradshaw getting benched the first half?! Rules violation, what is this, college football?

6ixty · Young Money

no one can stop gronkowski. to quote 'Prince Ali' from fishs favorite musical of all time, Aladdin, "strong as 10 regular men, down on 1 knee" POW POW POW alladin reference

6ixty · Young Money

seriously he carried 2 skins defenders 10 yards while meangelo hall watched. theres no CB big enough to cover him

i was ok with the sprinkler on the dallas helmet until he did the gay little humping move at the end

Jpoo · Guru

I'll take the hump all day long.

VERY gay.

Jpoo · Guru

Danny, you're just upset that it was a Jacobs TD and not Bradshaw.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Nobody other than Giants players like Jacobs, apparently hes a big dick. I could care less either way, I had Bradshaw benched in two leagues, the only league I had him in was our league, and Joe had already locked that one up.

MFisH · Negus

danny, u blame the redkskins for ur loss? haha, u lost by like 35 points. and juilo jones garbage time td? u mean the game winner?

u were the 6th seed and scored the least points out of everyone in round 1, sorry homie just wasnt ur year

Jpoo · Guru

Nah even I don't like Jacobs he's a massive **** and when he gets cut at the end of the year I'll be happy as a pig in sh!t. But when he helps us win a necessary game, I'll give him a pass!

The Redskins allowed Gronkowski 30 points, Julio Jones got 22 fantasy points in the last 4 minutes of time, PLUS Bradshaw was kept out the first half. I think it would of been a little closer.

I like the combination of Bradshaw and Ware ALOT.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

OK, with that said. It only makes sense that we make this league a keeper.

Yalls thoughts? I vote yes. How many players is up in the air.

MFisH · Negus

i guess, but u can say that about any player and any game. if only this happened, etc.

why cuz u want cam newton? haha. if we were going to make it a keeper we have to determine that from the start of the year. if thats what u guys want, i can make that happen, starting next year.

Jpoo · Guru

I'm down to start it from the upcoming draft forward.... how would we do it with an auction league? Would you add X number of dollars onto the players salary for next year? Would you keep it the same? lot of questions to answer.

If we do keepers it might be easier to go back to a snake draft....

6ixty · Young Money

twice the auciton price. and im down for a keeper league

MFisH · Negus

keeper league would be easier with an auction. and yes, if u want to keep that guy u add a certain amount of points from the previous year's draft. not sure about waiver wire pick ups. these are things we could obviously figure out ourselfs
