Why, did he make you start two IA RBs?

They weren't IA going into Thursday, and yes

But matter it did not, still pulled a win out of my ass

 

[WesleyS]

That sucks! I won my matchup this week, but still went down in the rankings.

I saw that. I don't have any doubt that the rankings will level out over the season, but they sure are strange now.

Biggest jump of the week right here! And still the lowest total points for, haha.

 

[finsfan]

I lost and went up 2 spots, nice!

 

[FermentNEthinG]

I've got a couple on the block. Big Green Machine.

Also a couple QBs for those teams lacking one currently.

Sent you a trade request for Dallas Clark.

 

[Ridire]

I am in total disbelief that this autodrafted team, without a single trade being made to date, is 4-0.

 

[finsfan]

I need a RB!!!!!! im willing to trade Russell Wilson for a running back, send me some trade offers!

that was a stretch ill admit that haha it was 10 times more fair than someone whose only scored 7 pts all year and might still be injured!

Still thinking about this one. Will let you know

How does "waiver priority" work?

 

[finsfan]

How does "waiver priority" work?

number one gets to add the players of his/her choice first (priority's change every week) then number two and so on

 

[Channel66]

How does "waiver priority" work?

Looks like league rank, higher priority for lower ranked teams. When the waiver wire is released Wednesday morning if you had a player waiting on waivers and no one with higher priority claimed him, he's yours. After the wire is released you can sign players on waivers directly to your team without having to go through priority, it's then free for all.

 

[Fuzzymittenbrewing]

Well its bs!!

 

[TNGabe]

Well its bs!!

Boo hoo. Let me get my tiny fiddle.

 

[Fuzzymittenbrewing]

Boo hoo. Let me get my tiny fiddle.

Zip it!

 

[BGBC]

Well its bs!!

Just throw a few weeks if you want a better waiver priority

 

[Fuzzymittenbrewing]

Im just saying if I do what I can to stay on top if things and get players asap its for nothing because someone else with a sucky team can just come along a couple days later and steal them away.

Maybe if you weren't so busy whining about waivers you would have got Jacoby Jones before I did. Whoops, better cut out the smack talk before I see some JP here.

I think Jacoby Jones drank your beers

 

[TNGabe]

I was already worried he'd be taking all of Marlon Brown's TDs and now he drank my beers?!?!???

Yeah what a bastage huh? Lol

 

[TNGabe]

Oh well, he's my bastage now. Did have to drop my backup kicker. Week 8 is gonna be rough. Thankfully I'm playing winlessizzle.

 

[TNGabe]

NFL.com has me predicted to lose by 60 points. That should make xMalachi nervous.

 

[WesleyS]

I'm projected to win big. So I'll probably lose.

 

[BGBC]

I'm projected to win big. So I'll probably lose.

According to NFL.com, yep.

"Being expected to win hasn't made much of a difference in this league. This season, projected losers have won 52.5% of the time."

Although, nothing they say can be trusted, so...

An even more interesting stat:

"Three teams (Zipper Fairies, Team Heady Hitters, and Cornelius Kings) are expected to lose by more than 30 points this week. This season, that type of longshot has pulled the shocker 80.0% of the time."

[Hello]

We're done buddy. I have a seemingly awake QB and you have a RB.

 

[finsfan]

Thanks, hopefully it works out for both of us!

Damn I didn't know my team was that bad compared to baseballsmitty's!!

Yo Smitty, I think a side bet is in order!
Smitty vs. Smitty

Fire away.

You could give that a try, but so far it has been used for smack talk for the most part.

 

[TheSmithsEra]

ok... I have MJD and everyone keeps telling me to start him, but he has not produced very well in the past 4 games.

I have Mcgahee, Ben Tate, (Doug Martin on bye week) and MJD.

help!

 

[BGBC]

I'd start MJD against the Rams.

 

[finsfan]

I'd start MJD against the Rams.

I agree. Willis hasnt proven to be a good fit in the browns yet and the bills didnt up any yards to ray rice!

 

[BGBC]

Personally, I'm hoping Willis finds his fit this week, since I currently have him in my starting lineup. Rice only had 5 carries last week and may have still been slowed by injury. Right guys? Right?

Damn 20 team league...
