    I'm going to end up 2-2 this week I think.

    Losing bad in league with buddies, will be my first loss there, 4-1.
    Should win our matchup, making my TFP record 5-0.
    Almost certain to win in my other forum league, will be 3-2.
    Already lost my game in my work league, will be 3-2.
     
  2. Amendola going down and Brees totally ignoring Graham tonight are making me 0-2 for the weekend. I was up against the last unbeaten team in both leagues... and both own Brandon Marshall! You buried me, Borla, but in the other league, one measly score from.... ANYBODY would have given me the W.

    Another disappointing week. Even worse than last week.

    Started 4-0 in a league with buddies. Stunk it up last week and did even worse this week. Playing a buddy that was winless, and I am getting blown out. Now will be 4-2 and tied for second place.

    SOOOOOooo ticked about the TFP match-up! Packers had a 45 yard FG attempt available to them with 2 minutes left. I was ONE point down and had their kicker going. A made kick would've moved me to 6-0. Instead they decide to run the ball and turn it over on downs! :mad: Looks like I'll lose this one by a single point and end up with my first loss. Down to 5-1, though still in 1st place.

    My other forum league doesn't look good. I'll sink to 3-3 in that one. The positive news is that that is still good enough to be tied for 3rd place out of 10.

    In my work league, I am up big. I should move to 4-2 in that league.

    So overall a rough week, my first week below .500. In several of my leagues this was going to be my hardest week due to multiple byes, so hopefully I'm over the hump and will keep on rolling after this. 16-8 overall in all leagues combined, which is respectable. A winning record in 3 of 4 leagues, and an even 3-3 in the last one, so I guess I can't complain too much.
     
  4. Rodgers got me a huge boost... at the expense of the Texan defense. Bad planning on my part. Gotta hope SD forces a lot of Denver field goals tonight, or Manning will give Ralphie the win.

    I thought you had a shot in the first half. This game is insane.

    I just noticed. There was a stat correction in our TFP league. I'm still undefeated. :D

    Looks like a 3-1 week for me.

    League with buddies I am up 94-62. He has Stafford still going. I have Pettigrew (which would offset Stafford somewhat in theory) and Cutler. Cutler may or may not come back tonight, but that lead should be safe.

    So far so good in my TFP matchup. It's not in the bag yet, but I'm up 144-137. My opponent is done, I have the Bears' D and Brandon Marshall. As long as the Bears don't give up a bunch of big plays w/o Marshall doing anything, I should be ok. But it's not over.

    My other forum league I am up 92-90. He is done. I have Michael Bush. As long as Bush doesn't lose 2+ points in the 2nd half, I'm fine.

    I'm down 77.5-78 in my work league. My opponent has Leshoure going tonight, I'm done. I need him to lose fumble or something. More likely, I'm going to lose. I should've started the Pats D (27pts) instead of the Steelers D (15.5), or Vick Ballard (9pts) instead of D. Hixon (3). Alas, my crystal ball wasn't clear enough.

    If things go as expected I'll be:
    6-0-1 and in 1st here.
    5-2 and tied for 1st w/buddies.
    4-3 and tied for 3rd (of 10) in my other forum.
    4-3 and tied for 5th (of 16) in my work league.

    19-8-1 isn't too bad. :cool:
     
  12. Burleson going down ensured a win in my espn league. 5-2 now.
    Had a nice week in tfp. Got a lot of work to do to get to the playoffs.

    I'm thinking I might be willing to part with Ben Roethlesberger for a decent RB/WR, if anyone wants to float out trade ideas.

    Should end up being a very nice week for me. :D


    In the TFP league I am up 119-93. Barring some crazy mojo in the last 8 minutes from Brees/Colston and a monster game from Vernon Davis tomorrow, I should move to 7-0-1 and remain in first.

    In my league with buddies I am 79-60. My opponent has a few minutes left of Sproles. I have Peyton, Colston, and Moore finishing out the same game, and Roberts (AZ) going tomorrow. This one is won, and I'll move to 6-2 and remain tied for first (the other guy is locked to win too).

    In my other forum league, I am up 83-65. I have a few minutes of Colston left, and Akers kicking for me tomorrow. My opponent has the SF D going tomorrow. I should be safe there. I'll move to 5-3 and be in 2nd place (of 10).

    In my work league I am up 108-68. My opponent has a few minutes left of McGahee and Sproles. I have Manning in the same game. I'm easily safe here and will move to 5-3, tied for 3rd (of 16).


    Can't be anything but pleased if nothing crazy happens and I finish at 4-0 for the week and move to 23-8-1 overall. :D

    Crap. Brees scored another TD in the closing minutes. I still have 3 match-ups locked up, but the TFP one at a bit of risk. I doubt Vernon Davis will score the 15 pts needed to knock me off, but it's not at all out of the bounds of reality. I liked my chances a lot more before Brees scored those last 8 fantasy points. :eek:
