I would be down to start a dynasty league next year but we should have it be a separate league in my opinion. Let's see how many rejoin next year then we can get a read on who would be serious about joining the dynasty.... we have a while to think about that.

Today however, has my Hawks going up against the Skins and I need 13 pts from Lynch, more than achievable.

I will miss the second half of the game, but I don't mind because I'll be at the King Crimson show. So today my friends...  today is a good day.

Noticed there was some talk about going Keeper, I would prefer that actually (well dynasty like keeper league), I joined 4 Dynasty leagues this year .. and to me they are way more fun...

Long drafts though, 26 Bench, 25 Keepers, 38-40 total slots means 40 rounds, heh...  I joined two shallow dynasty leagues and I find them very frustrating, doesn't feel like you are building anything, might as well be a re-draft league ..

We could do both if there's interest .. meaning re-draft and Dynasty ..

It's okay.  My D did worse than yours.  Your kicker got more points than my QB.

I hate this game.


Our defenses combined for -5 points or something. I don't think we're doing it right.

Must admit I've got no idea how a D is going to do week to week and that seems to make a huge difference to wins and losses. It's a crapshoot.

Wow, Murray is not disappointing at all. Maybe I'll just keep my backups in next week. Wacko

Wow I held on to that, even with Julio, McCoy and Maclin largely disappointing. 
Thank god I always take SF's defense (or in this case the computer did haha) they work great for our system. Always rack up stops, a few sacks and picks, sh*t adds up! 

Oh and Trent Richardson sucks but he did sneak a TD in thereBig smile

Bye weeks have arrived. It's actually one of the many things I love about fantasy football over other fantasy sports.

A Rod is having a rough year...is his line crap? The 2 teams he played with tough defenses/can bring pressure he's played lousy in. 

Hell, he piled up good stats against the Jets but he had to come back, they too have a good d line. Of course this is fantasy so we only care about those sweet ass stats....mmm

You need to check over your shoulder, that black cloud is gaining on you...
 
 


Add Arian Foster to my troubles.  Ouch

Given that I have Julio and my opponent has the Tampa Bay defense LOL I thought for sure I'd be slaughtering already. They managed 14some point!?!? I tuned out of that game so guess I missed the 3 fumble recoveries, as well as the defensive touchdown. 

I'm totally OK with it, we should reward defenses, just shows why FF isn't worth betting money on. Almost 15 points from a defense that allowed 56 pointsLOL
That said, I feel OK with my autodrafted team. Has worked out so far!

We could increase the severity for letting defenses score more that 35points(we can not go higher than 35). Currently it stands at minus 5 points. We could make it -10pts, for you get +10pts if your defense keeps their opponents to a scoreless game. Or we could add/minus points for allowing 28-34 points/21-27 points/ etc.. but I rather dislike that.

Also betting money is called gambling. And gambling, by its own definition, is a risk. This doesn't mean it isn't worth it, just that for you the risk/reward ratio does not suit your playing style. I don't gamble on FF because I live in a state where online gambling is illegal, but there are plenty of big risks in FF, and big risks = big rewards.
