Lightning we both have a WR and Kicker playing in the Broncos/Patriots game.

^ Yup, get 'er done.

Hmm I could have sworn I dropped after getting a FA a couple weeks back but good to know.  Wonder who else wanted the Chargers D in our league.

keeping them off the competition's hands

well..it does make my team better, for SF's bye week.

THE Stephania Bell just chose my flex spot for me, so if Spiller goes off and Garcon chokes I have her to blame.

Originally posted by lightning80 CJ Spiller..coming back from injury...spliting time..and going against the 49ers D...yeah..not a good recipe for him...so, you should play him!

LOL yea, it's basically the matchup that is keeping me from playing him over Garcon.  Plus ATL WILL put up points so WAS is going to need to air it out.

My team is just god awful... haha

Originally posted by lightning80 Glad that I don't have to wait until after MNF to know I won this week

Congrats Lightning.  I believe you just sealed and buried my coffin.  I had no chance this season when after the first game I haven't had a single game where I didn't lose at least one person to injury.  The problem isn't the injury, it's that they all got hurt pretty much right after the game started so I couldn't put someone else in instead.

Sea Shepherds already checked out.  That's the $hitty part of free leagues.

I think having soo many bench spots really diluted the free agent pool this year.  Basically once anyone on your team got hurt, you were screwed since there really wasn't anyone to pick up.  Oh well, such is life in Fantasy Football.

phew, survived by .65 points.  hope there aren't any stat corrections

^ Shit, lost by .75 points...  Owen Daniels had a good first half but Schaub seems to have forgotten Daniels exists in the 2nd half - Daniels targeted 1 time in the 2nd half.  One more reception and my team would have won.

I suck at this game. I forgot to change out matt stafford and lost by like .75 points.

I knew that would be brought up, but I don't care it was fitting.

Somehow my rag-tag team scored 92 points and RG3 went down so I get a W. This league is the definition of how head-to-head matchups are crazy, when one team goes for 120+ and loses and another scores 67 and wins.

Also, my money team with all 3 starting RBs on bye did OK but then got destroyed on SNF by Drew Brees, and of course I played vs my best friend that week. Bad luck.

money leagues are too stressful for me...

Originally posted by CoMtnRider Too late to shorten the bench now, once you start a season with rules, you kind of have to end it that way too

It's never too late unless the website won't let us do it. If we were to get a 100% vote from all the owners, we should be able to change anything about the league.

I would vote for expanding the playoffs to more teams though, especially in our free league. It's supposed to be for fun right? I don't think it'll be much fun if too many teams stop paying attention because they feel they're out of the playoffs already. Heck, we're only five games into the season.

i like bigger playoffs, too.  6 or 8 both work (actually prefer 8 to prevent the bye week for teams)

Originally posted by dking Ya, I think 8 works out more evenly. And with 12 teams, you'll still have to "make" it in. But I'd vote for either 6 or 8 if it keeps interest up.

I also vote for for expanding the playoffs field. either 6 with top 2 teams bye, or 8 teams.
