Fantasy football anyone?

Polamalu is an animal. You're going to get a ton of points out of your defence for sacks, bird.

And who has Heath? oops, out of bounds.

Guess not. You got to wing that thing at the ref's head!

Wow...fins got screwed...

I hate to repeat myself, but...

[Dude]

you are DOMINATING now, thanks to Brown's two TDs.

11 points from Miller on one play. Talk about luck. :rockin:

Jeff's going to be stoked when he checks in on the stats tomorrow.

If we're going to trash talk here which seems likely, might I recommend a new thread for each week? Otherwise this one is going to easily surpass the "I've never tasted a good asian beer" by week two

i was thinking the same thing earlier, but wasn't sure if we should have one thread per week, or per game. per week is probably better.

dude.... can you move all the chatter about tonight's game to an "NFL: week #1" thread?

Yeah, I'll move it all later....

Damn PIT D just got 7 points just like that....

I've always hated Culpepper. So glad to see his sorry ass get killed tonight. Starting out just like last year. 0 TDs, 2 INTs. :rockin:

To change your players click the my team link. Here you can bench, switch around who is on your active roster for the week. That's also where you can drop/add players, add some to a watch list and propose trades to your fellow managers. You can look at years past if players have years in the league to see how your guys have done.

Thanks. I tried doing some drops and adds tonight. I guess I just sit and keep my fingers crossed that they go through?

I was thinking that we should have a thread for each week, but then I also thought it would be pretty damn cool to have a thread that by the end of the season has 25,000 posts

Either way, doesn't matter... what we REALLY need, for the trash talking, is a chat room. Then, in Week 13, when I'm in last place, there's less evidence of my idiocy to shove back in my face!

 

[rdwj]

I kinda like one BIG long thread. Not only does it look impressive, It's also easier on those that don't care to see our nonsense. We could potentially have several threads on the front page dedicated to a pretty small segment of this board's population.

 

[the_bird]

Speaking of threads and numbers of posts, I just noticed that I've blown through 1,000 posts. I'm prolly gonna be at 5,000 by week 6.

That's because you're a typical Pat's fan. You talk too much

Should go through immediately... Hit submit?

 

[the_bird]

If you're picking someone up on waivers, the player needs to clear. I think I have waiver priorities this week because I drafted last, so if Walker tried to pick someone up that had been dropped, I could sneak in and grab him. I put in a claim for one of Houston's nameless RBs that Dude dropped (just because I think there's a decent chance the rook they have starting will end up demoted, and I *need* a RB), but it won't go through until tomorrow. I also put Charlie Frye out on waivers, if anyone is interested

 

[user 574]

Oh - that's probably it then. I dropped / picked up someone who probably wasn't ever on someone's team then and why it went through right away?

Can someone describe or point to some more info on the whole waiver process then?

 

[the_bird]

Oh, are you the bastid who picked up Kellen Winslow right before I decided to grab him?

 

[user 574]

A long shot with him, but yep.

MY TE was out this week with an injury. Not that highly rated but was a holmgren TE which he likes to get into the mix; at least when was coaching GB.

 

[the_bird]

Bubba Franks is still out there, if you like GB tight ends!

Winslow could be interesting. Charlie Frye's a crappy QB, and crappy QBs tend to rely on their TEs. Winslow definately has the talent. I've got someone I've never heard of from Tennessee, I don't even know who the QB is. At least they are facing the J-E-T-S this week, if he can't do well versus them, well, I'll be even MORE in the market for a TE.

In 2004, yea I'd have taken him...

 

[todd_k]

Players are on waivers for 2 days after every week (and the draft). Everyone can put a claim on any player on waivers and after 2 days, you can pick up that player just as long as you have a higher waiver ranking. Basically, the worst team gets the first shot at the waiver players. After the 2 days, everyone who isn't claimed on waivers becomes a free agent and anyone can pick them up.

 

[Walker]

damn... i didn't do enough research. i dropped two players and add two players with better stats. sounds good, right?

well, the two new players aren't even playing. they're on the frigging bench as the #3 RB and #4 WR.

I am an idiot.

 

[the_bird]

I just picked up a crappy RB for the Texans, not even their starter, on the off chance that the rook they ARE starting is terrible and gets benched. But, I only dropped Charlie Frye to make the move. Deep bench guys.

 

[user 574]

Carolina could have at least told me that Smith wasn't going to play instead of doing that "questionable" crap.

 

[Vagrant]

yeah he stiffed me in my league too.. Heath Miller counterbalanced my WR's pretty well though

 

[rdwj]

Damn you Keg Krushers!! If I would have started the right D - this would have been a different ballgame!!
