At the time I thought I would be keeping Wallace until the a hole sat out. Should have kept him anyway, I screwed that one up pretty good

During Sunday it was. On Sunday evening when I had a 3 point lead against McFadden, the only way it was going to be in doubt is if he had missed the team bus (possible) or shattered like glass on the first play from scrimmage (more likely)

I was feeling stupid for a while because I benched Nicks but it looks like it may not matter.

Wow...Gates out, Manning destroying me by himself...I think your bench is practically outscoring me, Lathum. You and your misses...spanking me hard two weeks in a row...not good!

Little on the light side with only 95 points this week and no help on my bench. My team is only as deep as my starters right now

I'd say more than a little. 25 points each from Turner and Jones doesn't seem outlandish at all. Denver's good on defense but it's in Atlanta

Considering I need some points from Ryan and White in the Alternate Rules league, I'm hoping for a high scoring game but that most of the yards go to White

I expect to lose that matchup.

Ok, I'm posting this in both fantasy threads: 1st and 2nd in points in my two leagues. 1-1 in both. Suck

That's the way fantasy football works. I have out scored the entire league by 250 points over the course of the season and didn't make the playoffs because I played everyone the week they had their highest point total.

Just a lucky day. I took Charles out of my lineup in another league because they said he hurt his repaired knee. it cost me a win there most likely.

Also, I know I didn't start a defense last week, but it wouldn't have mattered. I had gotten Pittsburgh off the waiver wire, but never got around to putting them in my lineup.

I never got around to the post I was going to make that listed all player's eligibility after the season. Just to keep things easy (if that's possible), I'm going to go by the (2), (3), and (4) designations SI made in the below thread:

Front Office Football Central - View Single Post - The FOFC Keeper League 2012

All players acquired this season and others not listed below have (2) for years left (after this year they can be kept two more seasons). Remember that if a (4) player is on your team at the end of the season, you do not have their rights and they go into the player pool to be drafted next season.

Player designations for the following season if they remain on the same team:

Gridiron Warriors
QB Aaron Rodgers (3)

Cam Pain 2012
QB Ben Roethlisberger (3)
WR Jeremy Maclin (4)

Callous Dowboys
WR: Calvin Johnson (3)

Houston Hippopotami
QB: Drew Brees (3)
RB LeSean McCoy (3)

Roadkill Cafe
RB Arian Foster (3)

The FOFC All-Stars Keepers
RB: Darren McFadden (3)
WR: Roddy White (4)

Blue Feltvet
WR: DeSean Jackson (4)

Touchdown Mafia
RB: Maurice Jones-Drew (3)

Lathums Brew Crew
RB: Chris Johnson (3)
WR- Hakeem Nicks (4)

Klein Bottle
QB: Tom Brady (3)

Molly's Murphys
(all (2)s)

Sal's Transgenders
WR: Vincent Jackson (3)


Good luck today all (other than ntn).

We can keep guys for 4 years right? I traded for MJD last season, so shouldn't I get to keep him for 2 more years after this year?

The rule now is you're able to keep them for 3 years. Before this season you were only allowed to keep a player 3 times, which means if you had drafted a player, you were able to keep them for a total of 4 years. That would seem to mean if you traded for a player you could have them for 3.5-4 years, but the year before this one we put in a rule regarding trading:

Front Office Football Central - View Single Post - The FOFC Keeper League 2012

Above rule is also why Brees, Brady, Calvin Johnson, McCoy, V. Jackson, and Chris Johnson are also listed as (3) above.

Brees and Texans D: 79 points
Rest of Team: 26

I'm kindof worried about Brees falling off a cliff when the Saints give up on the season but I haven't had to worry about that yet.

I don't know if this team is ready to challenge for a playoff spot, but I think we're significantly better than last season.
