I don't know who dropped Beanie Wells but I'd like to give you a hug. Anything is better than DeAngelo Williams at this point. Wells may be enough to right the ship if his production level this season remains relatively constant.

I put a waiver in for him as well. Was hoping nobody else saw him sitting there. #wishful thinking

Should I trade Roddy White, Jordy Nelson, and Houston Texans defense, for Calvin Johnson, The guy has the pats defense so the Texans are a good replacement, I also have the Lions defense so I don't mind giving away the Texans.

I love that we have a guy in my league who is whining about how he's not having any luck right now. I pointed out that maybe it's not a good idea to have two of your starting WR's and one RB all be from the same team (Eagles).

He's blaming his draft position for how that happened [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/34853_shakehead.GIF[/img] No sympathy from me, he was in the middle of the draft, I was dead last.

I call BS because he regularly adds and drops players from his team. C'mon man, just admit you made a mistake and mix it up a little.

Trading Murray & Branch for Bowe is starting to look like a major mistake. I should have my trading license taken away this season. Bowe and the Chiefs were starting to come around but in the end they suck.

Bowe's 1.7 points aren't helping me this week either.

I have too many leagues to remember how well I'm doing this year. I just know across the board this week I had a horrible week. Of course in one of my leagues, I started Matt Cassel over Mark Sanchez and if I would have started Sanchez I would have won my match up this week.

Gotta love Aaron Rodgers. I needed 12 points to win this week and he got me 28. I'm sitting at 5-5 after a horrendous start to the season.

I was behind 11 points going into Monday night, with Jordy Nelson being my only hope of winning this week. Thank god he came through.

We just had a bit of an upheaval in our league. One of our newbies, who has ended up at the bottom of the barrel due to horrendous decision making (before y'all scream at me, we have 4 newbies, and two of them hold 1 and 2 right now) decided to say "Effff this" and quit, vowing he was just going to release all of his players and leave it at that. Well our commish stepped in and transferred his team to an outside person to take over. The immediate effect has been since he's doing a rebuilding of the team (and he has top waiver priority being dead last) that he's beating all of us to player pickups. We'll see how it works out.

Unfortunately on my end it's meant I had to look for scraps for WR's (Colston and Wallace are on Bye). I grabbed Dexter McCluster and David Nelson as an emergency pickup. NFL is suggesting i pick up Damian Williams or Jason Avant this week, though I'm not sure yet. I was trying to get Moore and Robinson but they were who I lost in the waiver priority.

Goin up against PuRock in ER20's league. Its a battle for League Domination! Aaron Rodgers and Gronk have carried my team so far this season, here's to hoping it continues =)

Its a good matchup. Projections have us evenly matched at a high score figure. Here's to hoping Flacco can match Rodgers output for two pleasures.

Usually I've been going with Tebow. But against the Jets. That sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Starting Tebow sounds like a brilliant idea to me! [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/268213.gif[/img]

Well I gotta admit, I hope Flacco can match Rodgers as well! I just gotta root against the rest of your team haha.

Well your Joe McKnight flier really paid off. That's not good news for me. 100+ total yard, who would of thunk. Luckily he didn't get in the endzone.

Damn. Now I need one of my guys to outperform *Looking at Maurice Morris*

I thought he was worth a gamble when LT was declared out, but I didnt expect Shonn Greene to go out to. Kind of lucky for me I suppose.

My opponent this week started Willis McGahee, Shonn Greene, and Plaxico Burress. With the exception of Burress, who did okay, he got burned hardcore last night. I might have a chance to pull this one off on Sunday.

I concede. Good game. Flacco almost scored as many as Rodgers. The problem was your deep guys outperformed my starters.

In my four leagues, this is looking like my only loss.

IDK how the hell I missed having an active kicker in JO's league. This is the first time in my long FF career where I have had a bad starting roster. I feel ashamed. Luckily I might hold onto to a win without the kicker. At least Kasay is a good kicker to be sitting on.

Looks like another split for me... Win in ER's league, loss in ATD's.

Stafford and V-Jax combined for more than half the points I got this week (87.1 to 160) but I still lost my matchup thanks to Nate Washington's 2 TDs and the minimal production I got from my IDPs.

Ya it has not turned out the best for ya, but I have been quite satisfied, thanks! haha. Doesnt help with Cassel out either, but who knows Bowe plays very hot and cold so just wait for the big days, they happen

You should give yourself more credit than that. Your record is actually 7-4 and according to Yahoo you are in 4th.

I was going to pick up Carter too. I was debating between Carter and Peppers. I got lured away with the big name and he gave me 0 points.

I meant I was 6-4 going into Monday night. Glad to be 7-4 and in 4th place now.

I actually drafted Peppers. He's a beast but offenses pay so much attention him, his good play doesn't always translate to the stat sheet.

On another note, I can't believe you were able to snag Kevin Smith in JO's league.

I took a look at your team yesterday and considered throwing you a trade offer. Only thing is, you'll probably be asking a lot for the players I like on your team.

Yea I was surprised too. But I think I was even more surprised when I was able to get DeMarco Murray off waivers in both Yahoo leagues a few weeks ago.

I was just as surprised to see you already owned Kevin Smith in your league.
