Members Thunderbroom Posted September 19, 2005 Members Share Posted September 19, 2005 Originally posted by MrJoshua I don't know what the heck is going on this year. Normally I come out of the gates smoking. I have had the opposite problem the last two years. I started slowly and finished with a bang each year. While I'm looking good thus far, it can change pretty quickly and usually does.Having said that, I'm still going to kick everyone's asses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I had a pretty decent draft, but this sucks. My WR corps is in shambles after Javon Walker went out for the season, and my #1 pick isn't doing much at all.

My WR corps is in shambles after Javon Walker went out for the season, and my #1 pick isn't doing much at all. There a lot of luck that goes into this thing as well.This week my opponent, The Jack Butlers, would have likely beaten every other team in the league had he played them. Unfortunately for him, he had to play me. Fortunately for me, the Chicago Defense scored 33 points (like I knew this was likely when I chose them) and saved my butt.You've heard it before, I'll say it again:Any Given Sunday.

Members illidian Posted September 20, 2005 Members Share Posted September 20, 2005 Originally posted by KeroseneTrewthe Juggie and I have a close one this week! Decided tonight! My game is still being decided right now.Saints Offense (McAllister, Brooks) vs. the Giants Defense. There's an eight-point differential, so a TD will sway it my way.Brooks has 350 yards plus on the day, but only one TD, but with 2 INT's and 4 sacks.

Gonzalez again didn't do anything (four points this week), and McGahee run for 34 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Thunderbroom Posted September 20, 2005 Members Share Posted September 20, 2005 First time I've ever held the top spot the HCBF league.Dropped/Added a couple of players to help (I hope) my situation in future weeks. I drafted some highly-rated, but totally unproductive players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could I have predicted ONE point out of Reggie Wayne?!? And I left Santana Moss and Carnell Williams on the bench for a combined 45 points. It's like I'm living in FF Bizarro World here...

Members burdizzos Posted September 20, 2005 Author Members Share Posted September 20, 2005 At least you left points on the bench. I played nearly the best possible line up and still got nothing. How can they be this bad? I'll just sit back and be patient, I knew my team wouldn't be great early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MrJoshua Posted September 20, 2005 Members Share Posted September 20, 2005 I thought I had a strong team. Five points in two games for Reggie Wayne? I just don't get it.Ahman Green should have a great year now that there's no Javon Walker to stretch the field and keep the defense honest, too. Oh, well. That's why I don't play in pay leagues.

Members illidian Posted September 25, 2005 Members Share Posted September 25, 2005 Once again I start the wrong defense. This has occured every week!Bengals have 5 INT's, 7 PA. Colts have 4 Sacks, 6 PA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bengals have 5 INT's, 7 PA. Colts have 4 Sacks, 6 PA. Yeah, I looked at the bench scores and thought "woah, thank goodness he didn't start the Bengals!" I think I've finally started to figure out my running back situation, at least. Green on the bench (9 points) to make room for Cadillac, who dropped 150 yards on the Packers. Didn't find the end zone today, but still. What a rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both did well, but the Bengals just did much better.I don't have StatTracker, but I know the Saints did not do well. Deuce got at least twelve points, though (top of my head) with a TD. McGahee rushed for 140 yards and a TD, and maybe some recieving yards as well? Neither Engram or Boldin (WRs) found the endzone, but they both got solid yardage. Hopefully Gonzalez and Tynes can make for another exciting week of Monday Night Football! So far, Gonzo has scored eight points for me... What's the score of our game?

MrJ - 76 You - 66 I'd say your chances of winning are about nil since you have a TE/K on Monday night and MrJ has a QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MrJoshua Posted September 26, 2005 Members Share Posted September 26, 2005 I feel pretty good about this, but then again, stranger things have happened. Two long field goals and a couple of extra points and my ten-point advantage is eaten up by his kicker. Then it's Jake Plummer vs Tony Gonzalez, and Jake hasn't exactly been lighting up the fantasy scoreboard this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
