Prince of the North Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 17 hours ago, SpaceForce Tywin et al. said: Whelp, we're one week in and my players are already dropping like flies. Managed to go 4-1 in FF this week (only loss was in Westeros C). I'm not sure if I had a worse injury week than you but I did lose a few: Baldwin, Olsen, Walker...I think that's it so far. At least it wasn't a top tier QB! Hope I got that out of my system last year Quote League C was a 40 point cakewalk, and that's with losing Mariota and Fournette. And I have Rodgers in that league. Next week should be interesting. Bring it on this week, PotN! Oh, don't worry! I'll sort of "bring it" in your general direction this week...more or less! (Notice all the confidence) Quote Thunderdome was Thunderdome, and Beastmode doing Beastmode things snuck me through! My team is both a mess and awesome all at once. It's really magical. Ah, I think the bolded is really the fundamental essence of Thunderdome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskeyjack Posted September 12, 2018 Author Share Posted September 12, 2018 Went 3-1 this week. The loss was in Experts. Fitzmagic is a bastard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywin et al. Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Am I right to be suspicious about this trade? Team A gets Larry Fitzgerald Team B gets Stills and Lynch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cruel mistress, she is. I looked at my team and hate it relative to other leagues, but then I look at other teams in the league and Hey!, my team is less bad than most teams!!!!!

mcbigski Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Yeah but Fitz was probably drafted at least 4 rounds ahead of either of them and thats still on peoples' minds even if you don't think about it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst thing? Losing weeks in Experts and Westeros B. It was a brutal fucking week! Baldwin with 0, Cooper with 2 point something (I admit that was a dumb upside pick though), Stafford with 10, and Burton with 1.5. And then two of my star players, Zeke and Howard, very much underperformed fantasy wise, despite an actually excellent football game from Howard. Ooooh god I feel ill. This season is gonna be shit lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskeyjack Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 Pretty good start to the year. Went 4-0 this week, and now sitting at 7-1 overall across my 4 leagues. 2-0 in Westeros A, Westeros B, and Westeros C 1-1 in Experts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywin et al. Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 How does Yahoo's injury updates work? Because I checked like ten minutes before the game and it made it seem like Fournette would play. As we all know he did not, and my RB4 scored enough to have given me the victory in C. I'm not mad at the player, but F the game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to watch out for the inactive lists that come out about an hour before the game starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you're talking about Powell as your RB4 - with him instead of Fournette you still would have lost by 3 Finally, for all those people maybe feeling bad about losing close ones this week, I can relate. I lost by .2 this week in my own long-standing league (we're in our 19th year with very few changes in players over the years) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson must have gotten some garbage time points, because when I shut down my electronics you were only up by a few points and the game was in the 4th quarter. Still, it’s annoying that Yahoo said he was going to play. Guess I’ll have to take WJ’s advice. 14 hours ago, Lord Lyman said: Be thankful you didn't have Mariota.

Have you seen the blocking he's getting?! And completely agreed on the Fournette injury thing. That is annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't find a story about what was happening there for the first hour of the game even, let alone before. Rotoworld is definitely ahead of Yahoo for injury reports.

The Seahawks are legitimately bad, which is why I’ve argue that they should trade Wilson for a massive package of picks. 31 minutes ago, Bronn Stone said: The one that bit me in the backside was Zuerlein.

But SeaBass would have gotten me closer. Prater had been dropped that morning and then got 10, but he wasn't available according to the rules in that league even if I had known.
