Dammit ER, you were suppose to let Bernard Pollard clear waivers so that I could pick him up again. I cut him on a Friday, he had a bye, I was hoping he would get past the waivers so that I could re pick him up. It worked in your league, but you got him in ATD's.

I had a waiver claim in for him but I also had one in for Blount which was higher. Nobody picked up Blount (which actually surprised me) so I got him, then you got Johnson right after me.

I'm glad you ranked Blount higher. With Collie out, I need all the help I can get at receiver, and I don't think Michael Jenkins was enough.

You might get Pollard back next week when I drop him.

Looks like it's going to be another tough week for me in ATD's league. Looks like 2-6 is a strong possibility.

Are you going from DB to DB based on matchups? Usually that's what I like to do, but Pollard has been so consistent.

Not really; I simply didn't want to drop T.J. Ward. He's been just as consistent as Pollard.

Ahhh. That was my dilemna last week when deciding what to do with Pollard. I just didn't have any dead weight to cut.

My dead weight was Devery Henderson. It's tough enough counting on Saints WRs but Henderson no longer seems to be high on NO's Totem pole. But watch, Sunday night, Brees is going to find him for an 80-yard score.

That's usually how the cookie crumbles.

Aaron Rodgers needs to get it together, I cannot lose five games straight...

[Ed_Reed20]

Another week, another buzz saw. Looks like I'm going 2-6 in ATD's league thanks to Garrard, Lloyd and Megatron.

[XxSizzleXx]

Sorry about that, I knew I shouldn't of dropped Garrard haha, I thought his concussion was much worse. Anytime Kitna outscores Rodgers by 15 you got a chance.

It's cool; I'm hoping to play spoiler late in the season as the play-offs are definitely out of the question now.

Kitna outscoring Rodgers is pretty funny. The Jets getting shut out is even funnier.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Don't worry, ED20, I'll only have one more win then you, nothing like dropping five games straight. That's only I can score 20 points with Woodhead, Hernandez, Super Mario, and Lawrence Timmons. I forgot about Orlindo Mare, but he's pretty much useless so...

There's still time for Woodhead and Hernandez to do something and Timmons and Williams have been productive this season so you might be able to pull it off.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Eh, I'm not holding my breath. I forgot he has Mendenhall as his last player, with Branch currently playing.

[XxSizzleXx]

Don't forget about how many points Ladell Betts is going to put up. This is where I could really use Addai and Turner.

[AwakenTheDemon]

I didn't, because I don't see Betts doing much of anything, hence why I didn't even count him. Sorry, bro.

It's sad when you can say you should have started Freeman over Rodgers.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Apparently Mare heard me and kicked a 40 yard field goal to bring me within 2 points.

[XxSizzleXx]

The last 3 weeks, all 6 of my games in the yahoo leagues have been within 2 points at some point, gotta love fantasy.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Well, now I need a 10 point game by Super Mario to win it. God I'm sick of FF this year.

[PuRock]

ATD, looks like it's a rematch between me and you in your league this week.

[AwakenTheDemon]

I'm really starting to care less about my own league's team. It's getting really pathetic, I have a better record in ED20's (a team I missed the draft for) than my own (who I did draft). Oh well, I'm 6-2 in my non-forum league.

Not having Collie is killing me, since Steve Smith's lack of a reliable quarterback is making his numbers dwindle. Actually, I take that back, not having Collie and my abysmal running game (outside of Woodhead who I've only had for two weeks) is killing me.

Oh well, maybe I'll get some revenge. But I doubt it'll be a close game.

[XxSizzleXx]

Gotta snap that dreaded skid, good thing is you're only 1 game behind tying for a playoff spot.I was banking on Pu losing this week but I don't know how the hell that didn't happen, before Mondays I remember seeing it was like 50 pts down, ends up winning by 2 lol.

I get to play the dead guy this week, hopefully I don't lose, boy that would be embarassing eh guys No Romo, no DB or DL.

Trust me I had the game in ATD's game marked as a loss after Sunday's day games. I had no idea I was coming back. It wasn't until the end of the 3rd quarter after AJ scored a TD where I was like "Holy ****, I might actually win this game." Then AJ caught his last pass to put him over the 100 yard mark and got me the bonus points which led me to win by 2 points. So it was a shock to me as well.

But you don't have to worry about me anymore, I'd be more worried with the guys directly ahead of you since it's the best four records after Division winners that get in.

FYI, You wouldn't be first to lose to the dead guy.

Yeah that was some comeback, damn Andre Johnson has to be so good.

I've been paying most attention to the few people below me as they have some good teams, especially Rosemount with Ap and Rivers.

I know I was taking shots haha.

I just noticed, that because of thed highlighted rule, ATD's league is nowhere over yet (I had pretty much come to terms with just playing spoiler the rest of the season)... I'm 2-6 (after a crazy win over ER20 this week, who knew Garrard, Lloyd and Megatron would go off like that? ), and actually only 2 games behind the last play-off spot, that currently is owned by the Battle Hamster at 4-4... With 1420 points (177,5 avg) against, I'm pretty happy to still have an outside shot at the play-offs Now comes to consecutive weeks against unbeaten teams, lol (Am playing flubberdubber this week and Purock next week) I'm going 2-0 in those games, I'm calling it now.... LOL, well at least I can take pride in being the second highest scorer right now...

You probably will. You should, your team is pretty stacked and looks good for the matchup against me. McFadden will be out for you but S-Jax in. I'm waiting for some losses, I thought it would occur this week for sure. Still shocked at it.

yeah, there's always hope I'm pretty shocked that I'm 2-6 at this point... I was soooo happy about the team I drafted, and then I got Lloyd of waivers in week 1, I should be right there in the front rank of teams, but I have had a lot of tough losses, as the pts for and pts against columns testify to

And it would be awesome to take out the undefeated teams and restore some pride for my team , but who knows. The match-up with fluberdubber looks great right now, as his entire team is on a bye

I own the tiebreaker with JO, so really only half a game back.

Picking up Sidney Rice in the 18 man is starting to look like a good move, he is back at practice and looks crisp. Watch out fellas!
