    I won 4 out of 5 championships from 2000-2004 in a 12 team league. We didn't play in 2005 because of Katrina.

    The data I gave you was a routine ADP based on an 8 team league. We have played the auction format since 2001.

    I would have placed Wayne as a high 3rd round pick in an 8 team league based on our scoring system.

    You do realize that ADP and player ratings vary because of different scoring systems?

      Reggie Wayne 4th round, should have been an early 2nd.
      Miles Austin 5th round, should have been a middle 2nd.
      Randy Moss 5th round, should have been a very early 2nd.
      Deshaun Jackson 7th round, should have been an early 3rd.
      Ronnie Brown 2nd round, should have been a middle 7th.

      And even in QB heavy scoring formats WRs will have the draft position edge over QBs.
      So you think 7(we all know Ocho Cinco went to early because he was there so i don't count him) of the first 16 picks should have been wide receivers? Because that happens if you move Moss, Austin and Wayne up into the 2nd round. Unless you think one of those other guys should be dropped(we know OC should be)?

      And Ronnie Brown went so high because Rafi picked him, and Rafi was just randomly drawing people(notice he has 3 kickers). Did you even watch the show or just come into this thread to bash it because you are such an amazing fantasy football player?

      Shonn Greene in the 6th round (ADP of 19) and DeSean Jackson in the 7th round (ADP of 26) are also absurd.

      Okay, I'll shut up now. You get the idea...
      LOL Steven Jackson 5th? You would seriously take him 5th in your league? The guy has averaged like 5.5 touchdowns the past 3 seasons. Last year he was 31st in touchdowns.

      Ryan Grant is the only player who is out of position. Deangelo wasn't top 10 in yards or touchdowns last season and he still has Jonathan Stewart taking away yards and touchdowns.

        No Ollie, I never watched the show, even though I started this thread 11 months ago. If you had actually read my past posts in this thread you'd realize that "you should read the past posts of someone you are trying to bash".

        Steven Jackson was also second in rushing yards last year and is a Top 8 in almost any scoring format.

        Did you read the part where I said the fantasy football accuracy of this show means nothing to me?

        Come on Ollie.

              You're right. Sorry guys. Sorry Ollie.

              It did seem like I was bragging about my FF record, because I was.

                Re: The League

                This was the first time for me that the episode of "The League" was actually better and funnier than Sunny.

                But to me it wasn't even close, Sunny was bad tonight, and The League was awesome.

                LOL'd at the whole sequence when he's setting his roster while his girlfriend is blindfolded.

                    Re: The League

                    something is just "off" with this show

                    Like how they seem to care so much about whether they win or lose, yet all seem pretty dumb managing their teams. Or maybe its the casting or the way it's written or something...its too predictable and the acting too obvious at times...maybe its just a combination of everything. The comedy is very punchline-like all the time.

                    these guys would suck to be a in league with too...ultimately it feels like the characters are faking their enthusiasm towards their team and the league and that hurts it for me.

                          Rafi was waaaay less annoying in this episode, he might not be bad after-all. Great episode

                            Another awesome episode. Some might not like the lack of actual fantasy football talk but I'm okay with it. I think tonight was more leading into week 1 and next week with be more about the games themselves.

                            Rafi really adds something to this show for me.

                                And I just stated that my opinion is that the acting is below average, the writing is not quite on point, and the humor is too predictable and punchline-ish.

                                Just because it's a TV show means I have to like it, eh? God f'ing forbid I post my opinion one time in this thread.

                                Bottom line is I think this "show" should be a lot better than it is and they are basically dropping the ball.

                                Cue your "it's just a TV show get over it!!!" response
