Haha no.. it's just a poll. However, Wacko did send me a trade yesterday. Mark Clayton and Owen Daniels for Snelling and Aromashadu. I declined that in a second.

Aromashadu looked pretty good. Cutler really looks his way. I'm hoping he comes out strong. I have him in my money league where I am weak at WR. DeSean Jackson is my #1 guy. I do have V-Jax waiting on the pine.

Still far from being sold on Clayton. I just figured that's his one out of two good games this year.

Yeah, I have V-Jax in ED20's Yahoo league and I just can't bring myself to cut him yet. Honestly, I think he'll play this year... just not in San Diego.

IMO it could be better if he does get traded. If he doesn't he'll be suspended for 6 games and could hold out until game 10. If he gets traded he's back in Game 5.

But then it all depends where he goes. Minny would be ideal. He'll should end up putting up big numbers. I'm hoping he doesn't go to the Rams (although they could be down a lot) or Tampa Bay.

Redskins I'm iffy about, because I have Moss in most of my leagues.

[Romo Ravens]

ed.s52, please set your lineup for tomorrow. I know you still have a lot of time, but you haven't made any moves about your hurt players so I'm just trying to keep you on your toes and keep the league competitive. Thanks

I honestly can't shake the feeling that he'll be traded by wednesday (the deadline for him to be traded and back by week 5).

Oh I fully expect it. I think teams will wait until they say their teams play one last time. Then the Chargers will take the best offer on Tuesday. Rolling the dice. I can't but shake the feeling from myself that the Redskins will push the cards. Would prefer to see him go to Minny instead.

[Romo Ravens]

It looks like ed.s52 won't setup his lineup, so what should I do?

You do nothing.

I've been a commish for a long time in one league. And I use to set up people's lineups if they forgot. But it is just morally wrong and unfair for the people that do set their lineups.

If a team cannot take care of their squad, then that squad shall be the runt of the group. I hate when it happens, but it almost always does.

Consider yourself lucky that you should get a nice 2-0 start. Who knows maybe he'll set it up first thing Sunday morn.

[AwakenTheDemon]

It's not your responsibility to babysit his, or anyone else's. team. It sucks have an abandoned team in a league, but hey... at least it's an easy win for those who play 'em. I should be thanking him also, thanks to him not paying attention I got to walk away with Brandon Jackson.

lol Damn, Wacko... 22 acquisitions so far and it's only week 2.

Yeah Wacko adds and drops like a ADD kid on Crack. He can't make up his mind, who he wants to keep or who he wants to let go.

[Romo Ravens]

What's funny is that if he would have put in Hightower and Best, where his two starting Rb's are injured, I would have gotten killed. Ha

[Wacko4Zacko]

Well ATD great game my friend, I almost won and I actually had the lead at some points. Alot of ties too. Congrats

[AwakenTheDemon]

Yeah, it was closer than I expected. Addai really kept you in the game. Too bad Welker and the Philly defense didn't play up to snuff or you probably would have squeezed out a win.

[Wacko4Zacko]

If I started Matt Ryan, You would be screwed. lol

Not after Gore's monster night tonight. He put me out of reach from you, despite anyone you may have played. Hell, Schaub and Gore saved the game for me.

[TreTheRaven]

So, uh, which one of you is going to be nice enough to let me win a game?

If I wanted to go winless, I would have named my team the Lions.

You'll get some wins. Your starting team is pretty good. Your WRs need a little help, but they should help put together some wins.

Wacko since you made me wait outside your house for the party, I am going to have to beat up on you in Fantasy Football this week.

Wow. To think I actually called Wacko a friend. What a jerk

[Romo Ravens]

I should probably put this in your thread Pu, but since I'm here I'll just ask. Who should I start this Sunday? Jamaal Charles against SF or Tolbert against Seattle with Mathews more than likely out?

Charles is a threat everytime he touches the ball, but Haley is a dope and the SF D is stiff. While Tolbert could be an awesome goal line back but Seattle's D has been kind of stingy as well. I'm stumped

[AwakenTheDemon]

I'd go Charles over Tolbert. He's much more explosive than Tolbert, and is still a threat against a Niners defense that doesn't always live up to it's reputation the past two weeks. San Diego can just turn to the pass with Rivers and Gates with Mathews out.

[Romo Ravens]

I just feel filthy benching Charles. What if he busts a 50 yard run for a TD? Damn this is a hard one. Tolbert could easily get all the goal line carries, and Norv has proven that he likes to punch it in close.

I'llbbt going every other way until Sunday morning lol.

If Matthews is out, I'm loving Tolbert. He'll get like 20 touches including goal line.

San Fran's D is starting to come around. I look for them to have a good outing against the Chiefs. Its apparent that Cassell can't throw. So when Charles is put on the field, the D will be targeting on Charles.

This is how sick I am with Tolbert, I'm thinking about starting him over M Turner this week, probably won't, but its in the back of my mind if Matthews can't go.

[Romo Ravens]

Why not have both, lol? Moreno has been ruled out this Sunday with an injury to his hammy, so I have to sit him, which leaves me with Tolbert and Charles being placed in my starting lineup.

Would I be a fool to bench Charles in favor of Maroney, the new lead back for Denver?

Extremely. I'd rather have Buckhalter than Maroney.

yup... Josh McD, might just use Tebow as RB, just to annoy you Don't start Maroney, or any Bronco back if you can avoid it imo

[Romo Ravens]

Thanks everyone. I think I'm set with Rice, Charles and Tolbert as my starters for this week.

I'm still stumped on either Nicks or Mike Williams (TB) though lol. They say that Nicks will have Finnegan on him a lot, while Williams faces a tough Pitt D. Thankfully, I have Andre as my number one WR and Gates as my TE lol. What should I do? I'm thinking I stay with Nicks.

I'd stick with Nicks. I'll take 1 on 1 with Finnegan over the pressure the Steelers D will be giving Freeman.

That's a good point. Thanks Pu, I think I'm sticking with Nicks. Mathews is officially listed as "doubtful" for Sunday. Hellooooooo Mike Tolbert.
