Which team are you "Big Ben's Bodyguard"?

That's me. Hopefully Vick stays healthy the rest of the year.

Well ATD's league does have a long season. Still 4 games left and you are still in it.

Right now after the division leaders, the 4 other teams sitting in playoff spots have records of 8-1, 6-3, 6-3 , 4-5 (prior to week 10 results).

So that one team with a 4-5 record is still up for grabs for you. I think after my win this week I have for sure clinched a playoff spot. And it looks like every team in our division are sitting pretty for playoff spots.

The East is in the house!

You'll be okay. No way Moss goes off. The Eagles D-Line is starting to find their own in the pass game. Donovan will have trouble finding time. Best bet is to keep the run game going.

In my one league. I was torn between Fred Jackson and Torain. And the thought in my head is , Torain will probably get injured during the game. I stuck with Freddie.

I think you have both those guys starting.

Yes I do. I expected a solid game from Fred considering his RB1 workload but didn't expect a Steven Jackson circa 2007 game.

Funnily, I was watching the Cowboys game and pumping my fists during the 70+-yard catch and run by Felix Jones until I realized I didn't start him.

Hopefully, Torain makes it a wash tonight before he goes down.

When you have night sweats over FF I think you have a problem LOL.

When are they going to break out FF meetings? They have all the other ones. Over-eaters, smoking, sex, booze, drugs. Where are the fantasy meetings? Some of us need more help then others.

In all honesty, wife was gone on business and she wasn't hogging the blanket last night. I forgot what its like to have the thick blanket since she's always hogging it. Boy does it get hot.

[PuRock]

Whoo-hoo! 3 of us have clinched playoff spots in ATD's league. 2 from the East already.

Reediddy is the only one that has clinched in ER20's league.

[XxSizzleXx]

I could of stopped 1 of those 3 clinchers but half my team didn't show up heh. It's starting to get pretty tight after the top 5 spots.

[Elmo]

After this weekends games (and the heartbreaking, day after loss to Pu...) I'm now ranked 15 of 16 in the league... Only SupaB! is below me... At the same time I've put up the SECOND most points of everybody... Only Flubberduber (who is ranked 1) has put up more, and he has only put up like 40 points more than me... Insane...

That is insanely messed up, shows how stats prove nothing sometimes.

Damn it Pu! I wanted Boss...

[AwakenTheDemon]

So, in one of my other leagues, apparently something went down and the commish dropped every player from three teams. Well, I logged on after not being on for a day (apparently the day this all happened) and one team picked up nearly every star player that was on those three teams. So now he has:

QB: P. Manning, Vick, Rivers
HB: Hillis, Gore, Jones-Drew
WR: White, DeSean Jackson, Reggie Wayne, Brandon Lloyd, Dwayne Bowe, Andrew Johnson, Randy Moss
TE: Dustin Keller, Brandon Pettigrew

What... *ahem* Bullcrap.

Now the commish has locked everyone's ability to add and drop players. Those players should have been allowed to hit waivers so everyone had a chance at them, not just one selfish... guy. God, I'm 8-2 in this league and now it's irritating me with this crap.

My TE situation in that league has been abysmal this year. I started off with the one TE, Celek, thinking he was going to be all that I need. Then Vick comes in and Vick just doesn't look to Celek.

Tried Dressen but he's no answer.

Boss usually gets hot in the 2nd half of the year. And he started last week. With Smith out for a while, he could become the possession guy. At least that's what I am hoping for.

That's just wrong. Can you talk to the commissioner so he can undo tha nonsense?

I was hoping I'd snag him too. Miller has been a rock for me all year but he's dealing with a foot problem. I scraped the bottom of the barrel to pick up Daniel Fells but I can't rely on him for another week. Hopefully, Miller returns.

A few have been trying, but all he's done is lock people's ability to add and drop players, since a few teams have threatened to drop their entire team's roster and "quit" the league. Man, I should have just stuck with BR.com leagues and leagues with my friends. This is ridiculous.

It's a mutiny! That's a tough situation man. I'd give up on the league too if that's the way the commissioner handles a problem [i]he[/i] created.

Damn ya, of course you got K. Williams.

Priority! My team stinking it up most of the season helped in that regard. Funnily, I might not have any use for him if Fred, Felix and Tolbert continue to produce.

[PuRock]

If anybody is interested in trading a viable TE option feel free to propose a trade to me in ER20's league. Would be willing to give you two pieces, Celek (if you need a backup TE) as well as another player. Or any other combo if fair enough.

[PuRock]

Well that's a good start ER.

Hartline will outscore Cutler and his projection. Who would've figured.

I really hate Cutler. I benched him last week as a disciplinary measure and he ends up performing on my bench better that Fitzy. Then I start him and he puts up a lame game. At least ATD's league doesn't penalize for INTs.

I've been watching Hartline produce starter-worthy lines on my bench for a while and just decided to plug him in this week over Evans and Burleson.

Another catch or two would be nice.

[AwakenTheDemon]

You do get penalties for interceptions, just the default one point loss. Meant to change it to 2 before the season started, but I forgot and didn't want to start making changes after it had begun.

On a side note, what a week to pick up Peppers. 11 points.

I had given up on him a league after several weeks of no sacks and very few tackles.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Yeah, I'm not really keeping him for a long term starting position, but I wanted someone to give me a week away from Super Mario...

[AwakenTheDemon]

Not trying to brag, but I'm chewing up both opponents in the yahoo leagues.
160.04 - 58.46 against Elmo's in my league, 120-54.20 against Reddidy in ED20's.

[XxSizzleXx]

You play Elmos and your team lights it up that week, it's almost a fact haha.

Not until I hit the Brees wall. Lately QBs against me have been crushing. Looks like you'll win this one, I can't compete with the Brees.

If Only I started the Fitz over Cutler it would've been a game. Fitz had 40 points compared to Cutler's 8. Doesn't matter who I start at QB, the one on the bench always seems to play the best.

Yeah, Brees is starting to hit his stride(not that he was terrible earlier this season).

As for your QB situation, that's fantasy football.
