@Guerrilla:
Crap, that’s too awesome! Well, at least getting the money.
In my ESPN league (the one that I started 0-3) I ended 6-8 and I got invited back next year. Basically, for being my first year, I did pretty good managing the waiver wire. I had CJ Spiller, and I know, that was amazing having him as both WR and RB. I used him as a WR and I had Turner and MJD. It was awesome!
In my Yahoo league, I had a 7-6 regular season and made it to the playoffs (7th seed out of 16 total players). First week I slaughtered the 2nd seed, and I wasn’t supposed to win. Needless to say, Wes Welker + Percy Harvin + Chris Johnson all ran wild that week. Great game, totally shocked the whole group. Next week, I had a bad matchup against Aaron Rodgers, Rob Gronwkoski and Julio Jones. In my flex, I should have started Donald Brown (that was the week he had the 80 yard touchdown), but that still wouldn’t have won me the game. So, that loss took me to a battle for third place. I’ll post the results below. It was laughably hilarious how bad he failed on Sunday night. And what made it even better Brandon Lafell was on his bench. Needless to say, the commish gave me high marks for pulling up as far as I did for a rookie fantasy player. I’m the stats on the right…

Well, I haven’t seen the money yet and the commissioner of the league “forgot” to give my brother his money while he was in town. He’s probably just mad I beat him 3 weeks in a row…
I apparently gave up on my other leagues too soon but it was beginning to be too much time investment. I mean, I could set players fine, but I kept losing so many. Oh well.
Just one year of playing gave me an immense amount of info I needed to know. Of course, the rules changed the following year, and you need to know how your point scoring works before you start drafting, but I went from barely missing the playoffs to taking the entire league in 1 year. The other leagues were just for fun.
Nice matchup, but sometimes a great team during the season peters out by playoffs because of people resting, injuries, etc. A lot of it is luck in the end.
@ABWorsham:
I had Run DMC put up squat for me as well, but I also had Arian Foster he got me like 40, so it worked out.
In my 12 man league I lost again. Matt Cassell put up nearly nothing, Lynch went down, and someone else I can’t remember. I’m freaking 2-5 and about to unload my players to my buddy if I don’t win next week. I just can’t believe the team I drafted did this…
I don’t play F.F but I live and breathe NFL football. Next season ask me about some players, Matt Cassell is at best an average qb. Put me on your general Staff.
He was my second string quarterback, in because my starter was on a bye week or injured…can’t remember which. There was literally no one available that could give me points and no one was trading. I also figured between Dwayne Bowe, Steve Breaston, and the running backs, he could get a couple of TDs and a couple hundred yards. But I have no problems coming back here and posting what I’m thinking for a lineup. It’s good to know if anyone has an ear out because it’s not always displayed on the fantasy info.
Anyone interested in an A&A baseball league for fun? Or maybe money…or something worthwhile.
