Damn, a 4 team draft really let me see how stacked teams can get, I still can't believe Yahoo didn't post pone the draft or let me change the date with only 4 people.

its a points only league so it may be a nice change up from other head to head leagues

I would join but I already have enough leagues to worry about on top of my school work. Care to join my league that only had 4 teams? I went back and re-setted the draft and moved it to tomorrow at 1:30PM in an attempt to get more people.

I think I'm done with Yahoo Fantasy Football after this season, I can't put up with their slow server that Yahoo never seems to upgrade and always causes trouble with trying to enter a Draft Room. I might still only do 1 league on Yahoo next year, which will be ED's league if he does it again but other wise I'm moving to ESPN for good and may do something on NFL.com for next season.

I was actually thinking of moving my league to NFL.com next season. I like their interface much more. Although ESPN still has the best draft client

I'm winning against Purple Pain right now in JO's league. Barring a monster game from Welker tomorrow, I'll walk away with the W. I definitely got saved by an exceptional performance from the Bears D/ST today though. Bowe, DeAngelo Williams, and Colston did not show up this week.

Is waiver day still Wednesday on Yahoo leagues? I have some moves I need to consider.

EDIT:

I never thought Welker would put up 28 points. Back to the drawing board.

I say this ever year hoping that Yahoo fixes it. But the fact that you can't sort free agents by targets or attempts is pure insanity.

Kind of...:lol:

Limited access to a computer, so I couldn't replace Dez Bryant...not that I had quality reserve on my bench though.

My ESPN squad definitely bring home a W.

It looks like a split. Though I am a bit worried that S-Jax plays and the Giants score to DTD. It could happen.

Charles going down has already spelled my doom in my Yahoo league. I'm starting Fred Jackson and Marshawn Lynch as my RBs. My alternative, Jonathan Stewart, Michael Bush an Kendall Hunter. [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/34853_shakehead.GIF[/img]

Your still doing better than me in this league. Your not too bad off. I mean you have Wallace, Bryant, Freddie Jackson and Fred Davis. This are all guys who will consistently put up numbers.

Me on the other hand, every single guy I drafted in this league is turning out bust performances except for Calvin Johnson. Gore, Ingram, Dallas Clark, Mike Thomas. (We drafted before we knew the true outcome of Manning and Garrard).

And with the way the waiver wire order is set up by Yahoo (continuous on successful waiver pickups). I sense it might be tough for me to compile better pieces even though I am in 10th.

I just hope Bryant can stay healthy.

But you're right that I'm probably in better shape than you. Gore, Ingram, Clark, Thomas? That's rough.

I'm attributing my exceptionally bad performance to being disconnected twice during the draft, resulting in missed picks. This is one of the worst fantasy teams I've ever fielded, and I'm a little embarrassed by just how bad I've been doing.

Blasphemy! Both my stud TEs are out in JO's league. Gates and Hernandez. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Scott Chandler here I come!.

Eli throws 4 TD passes and he couldn't hit Nicks for one? I never would have drafted Hakeem, that was an autopick. It's looking like another terrible outing from my team today.

Okay...I officially HATE Mike Wallace.

I was up 117-103 in my game. I have no one playing in this Steelers-Colts game, and my opponent has just Wallace and no one from Indy. Neither of us have anyone playing tomorrow night between WSH and DAL. So I needed Wallace to be held under 14 points and I would win.

Wallace has already gotten 18, and I lose.....[img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/34853_brickwall.GIF[/img]

P.S. Am I the only one who's commented in this thread that isn't in this league? Is that bad?
