GTPlanet Fantasy Football League '09 - Speedy Samurai Wins!!!

[Silverzone]

I'm pretty happy with mine. I wanted to stick to a lot of Dallas cause I don't have time to keep track of the whole league. I missed the draft though. Completely forgot.

QB - Tony Romo
WR - Braylon Edwards
WR - Hines Ward
RB - Marion Barber (please, please don't get injured this year..)
TE - Zach Miller
W/R - Reggie Bush

K - Nick Folk

Def - Dallas

Is this like, Madden NFL '09 online or something?

 

[Silverzone]

Nah, man. This is a fantasy league. Everyone makes a team and drafts players from all teams to one and they are scored on the performance. The points are added up from each individual player and the are all totalled and you go against the team you're matched up against. It's more like tryin to be a team manager.

 

[Speedy Samurai]

While a little lean in the RB department I think my team is looking alright so far.

QB: Rodgers, Hasselbeck
WR: Calvin Johnson, Andrew Johnson, Bernard Berrian, Kevin Walter, Donald Driver
RB: Kevin Smith, Fred Jackson, Ray Rice
TE: Greg Olsen
K: Carney
Def: Pittsburgh and Indy.

Perhaps some more tinkering is in order...

yeah...a LITTLE!

My first match up is against Max Powers (RATS OFF TO YA). Predictions separate us by less then a point. Not that it matters because of the stomping that’s going to happen.

Reminder to everyone to get your line ups done today and tomorrow as the first game will be Thursday. Don’t get caught with your jockstrap down!

What are you talking about? The Dolphins play on Sunday.

 

[UnoMOTO]

my bad....nothing gets by you now does it?

 

[Max Powers]

If you're more comfortable with Carolina D, we can always trade. Our defense is horrible this year.

Check your yahoo fantasy account. I offered you Miami for Carolina in a trade.

 

[Omnis]

Word, I sent you a trade proposal.

I just looked at your team. Did you really sit Peyton Manning in favor of Pennington?

I see what you are doing, and I will love watching it, but you are so screwed week 6.



And to everyone else: GAME ON!!!

 

[UnoMOTO]

Are you ready for some football?

 

[FoolKiller]

Just to add to the excitment, Don Cheadle explains just how important football is:


And what is probably my favorite Monday Night Football Intro.




But on topic:

Titans


Vs Steelers




And the preview video.




Can you feel it?

w00t! Fantasy Handegg is about to start, maybe I won't suck this year.

No more difficult than poker. It is a game of randomness and understanding the statistical odds.

The biggest difference is that humans act as your cards, thus they have many more variables, and you can't fold to save yourself.

Pennington will face garbage ATL pass D. You make a good point though because the Jags are also garbage. But ATL run defense is better than the Jags'. I think. Actually, no, LEX ran all over them during pre-season. Crap... what do I do?

 

[UnoMOTO]

Holy over analysis Batman. Dude….its PEYTON MANNING….start him every game minus the bye week and you’ll end up ahead.

Yahoo even shows the percentages of owners who are starting each player. The 96% vs 8% should tell you all you need to know. And the other 4% either have Brady too or haven't updated yet.

Naw man I'm not getting a good vibe from Peyton this year. He's been eating too many Oreos.

Also, you guys are forgetting that Pennintong is the runner-up league MVP.

 

[UnoMOTO]

I just saw that you have NINE Dolphin players on your team

He is spiting my rule.

And like I said, he is screwed in week 6.

 

[Omnis]

Well I'm starting Tony Gonzalez.

 

[UnoMOTO]

And like I said, he is screwed in week 6.

FFLers need a bye week too. I know I need a mid season break.

Well I'm starting Tony Gonzalez.

You have nothing to worry about. Well...cept for the fact you'll need the Fins to score about 50 points a game to keep your dorsal above water.

It'll be a sink or swim season for you.

Say that after I beat you in our matchup.

 

[UnoMOTO]

I'm trying to find something positive about how your season will go.

DING!!!! WE HAVE A WINNA

You are overthinking this. You always start the most valuable player at their position. Starting Pennington over Peyton is shooting yourself in the foot right from the start.

Whoever has Rob Bironas as their kicker... LOL!
