Mortal Fantasy Football Kombat 2012

Each time I feel like poop from losing, I look at the record of Vegas and I feel great again.

Not only that, but the way so many other teams are playing, you're only a game out of a playoff spot still.

Asked my fantasy guru for advice on who to add:

:???:

The guru sucks. I look at it for ideas, but I make my own evaluation of what it tells me.

I can't believe I have a zillion RBs and only one has no bye week this week....and he's just coming off a recent injury so he isn't even 100%, really....


LUCK IS CERTAINLY ON MY SIDE THIS SEASON

Funny that you make that complaint here and yet don't answer my offer to trade you a RB. Now that it's Thursday it's too late for the trade to go through this week.
 
I don't look at the site every single day.

I check it every Tuesday and take glances on days where there are games, and by that I mean glance during game time, never before, lol.

Ah well. What was the offer?
 
Ooooh, nice. I wouldn't trade Jackson, though. He's been doing well for me.

Sorry I missed it, I should look more often, lol. I just don't on non-game days/before a game starts because I assume no one needs my attention.

I failed lol :/

You know which "fantasy guru" I have used this season? It's called NFL.com's very own "Start 'em, Sit 'em". And "Start 'em, Sit 'em" has jipped me enough times this year for me to ignore, so I already know the feeling.

I wasn't at all certain you were crazy enough to take the deal; but I would have entertained counter-offers. Also, another good reason to check the site is for updated injury status on your players... I've had players suddenly announced as "out" right before the game and had to change my lineup at the last minute.

Start 'em and Sit'em is generally way better than that stupid guru thing. Nothing is perfect though. Fantasy football is what it is.

The 49ers D holds Seattle to 6 points

and all i get is 11??

wtf nfl.com

ok a couple of things here.

first, why are you blaming nfl.com for anything? The game is fully customizable. If you have a problem with the scoring rules, blame me.
Oh wait, except I asked you guys for rule input before we began play, and you guys didn't suggest a thing. So if you actually have a beef with the rules now, you can blame you. I'm not changing the scoring rules mid-season.

Second, if it's not the rules you have an issue with, but you think the score is actually WRONG, then you can come to me with that anytime. As we found out last year in a forgettable situation, the commissioner can change scores, though I am understandably EXTREMELY reluctant to do that. As far as I can tell, you're points are correct. There are only so many points your defense can score on points alone. The higher scores you've seen some defenses put up this year are because of more turnovers and sacks.
 
This is according to the official defensive scoring system in our league:

Sacks: 1 point
Interceptions: 2 points
Defensive fumble recoveries: 2points
Safeties: 2 points
Blocked kicks: 1 point
Non-offensive touchdowns of any kind: 6 points
Shut-out: 10 points
2-6 points allowed: 7 points (by rule, 1 point allowed is literally impossible in football)
7-13 points allowed: 4 points
14-20 points allowed: 1 point
21-27 points allowed: no points
28-34 points allowed: loss of one point
35 or more points allowed: loss of 4 points

49ers defense allowed 6 points, and recorded 2 sacks and a pick. Before you start complaining about your score, check the league settings page and do the math yourself. The 49ers defense score is fair and square...although I should point out that Jim Harbaugh pulled off a Brian Westbrook and cost you 2 additional fantasy points by declining an offensive penalty in the end zone on a 4th down play (and Westbrook already lives in fantasy football infamy for taking a knee at the 1).
 
Yo Marshall, the Jets might line up Tebow at RB a bit. Sure you don't want to add him back to your team? :rolleyes:
 
nah son, Marshall needs that roster space for his bye week needs... give it a couple weeks and Marshall will be all over Tebow like BBBLP on a bucket of Extra Crispy
 
I love how you tell me via PM that you won't say such things anymore if it bothers me, but then you come in here and not only say such a thing but then combine it with one thing that bothers me even more, which is accusing me of abusing my power in the fantasy league.

Besides, if I'd really changed the scores, it would have shown up in the news feed. That's how we knew oleg did it last year.
 
Holy shit, I was just fcking joking.

Take a goddamn pill, LC. You're so sensitive.

You said it didn't bother you, anyway. I don't think a jab once in a blue moon will hurt your ego.

For starters, I know you are joking. I don't know why you think it's impossible for me to know you're joking and still be offended. Additionally, I said it bothered me a little bit. And that conversation was about joking with me about titties... I don't recall any discussion about whether jokes about me being a corrupt fantasy commissioner bothered me or not. And considering I took this gig specifically in order to prevent such crap, it shouldn't surprise you that jokes of that sort bother me severely.
 
Poor Marshall.... every time it looks like he's ready to break out, he takes another step back. Great win, Jade... you're still in it for sure.

I was totally expecting to get my first loss this week and for that to be the headline, but I'm doing better than I thought and could still win here. Not sure what headline to use in that event...
 
I picked up Woodhead because I wanted an RB who was actually playing this week, since I only had one who wasn't on a bye week, and he has done shit for me, lol. Figures <.<

Count him as a drop on Tuesday, lol.
 
Only 2 people in our league has more points than me...

and i'm facing one of them

shit is so unfair.... It's because I'm black isn't it?

To hell with this racist league I'm out!
