[Rhode Irish]

BobD, that was an incredible comeback you almost made! I have Manning in one of my other leagues and needed a huge day from him, so I was torn watching last night.

161.82-161.46 is as close as you can get.

Thanks and congratulations!

Antonio Gates screwed me....he's been getting less than 10 points every week so I benched him for Dressen. Dressen did well, but Antonio decided to get his sh!t together last night and catch two TD's.....he scored over 20 points and I would have won.

Oh well, woulda, coulda, shoulda. He's a jack @ss.

 

[Junkhead]

Bye weeks are stupider than Antonio Gates.

I'm enjoying my first fantasy league, but I have to say after watching my friends over the years and "The League" for awhile ....we are kind of boring. I expected more smack talk.

Hey Junkhead,

Now that the playoffs have started, are all the players on teams that didn't make it stuck on those teams? or can we try to get them? I don't know the rules or how it works in fantasy.

Hey Junkhead,

Now that the playoffs have started, are all the players on teams that didn't make it stuck on those teams? or can we try to get them? I don't know the rules or how it works in fantasy.

The rosters for the 6 teams who didn't advance are locked. Either way it is highly frowned upon to trade away players to playoff teams. Everyone here is trustworthy, but I was in a league once where someone who didn't make the playoffs dropped all their players and had their friend pick them up. It is easier just to lock the rosters.

 

[BobD]

The rosters are supposed to lock. Either way it is highly frowned upon to trade away players to playoff teams. Trade deadline has passed.

OK Thanks!

Being I've never been in a large league, I didn't realize playoffs were this soon. Somehow I climed from the basement the last few weeks. Good Luck everyone

 

[Mr. McGibblets]

Tough to make playoffs when you get auto-drafted Chris Johnson and Jamal Charles.

Glad I asked. I would have tried to grab up dropped players if someone did that.

 

[Rhode Irish]

I'm going to get beat in all three of our IE leagues....two of them are bad upsets. Oh well, my two money-league teams are through to the semis. Was a good season, peeps. Looking forward to doing it again next year.

Final is set. I got lucky again. I thought UPMich would coast into the finals, J Pham had other ideas!

I thought you had me. Getting 0 from Boldin, and less than 2 from 2 other guys (suck it, Vernon Davis), I was lucky to get so many points. Thank God for Adrian Peterson, the best 3rd round pick ever. I usually do 2-3 fantasy leagues per year, and have done the IE one for 5 years now. 3rd, 5th, 6th, 6th since 2008, but nothing better. I have a feeling J Pham will take it from me this week though.

 

[Junkhead]

Thanks to all for a fun season. Looks like I will finally win the IE trophy. I would trade it for an ND win over Alabama.
Anyway, I am curious as to how everyone likes/dislikes the PPR/PPC scoring. Thoughts?

Hated it. I also missed the draft (was there a draft?) in that league so maybe I was already a little disillusioned to begin with.

But I really disliked how a good/bad QB basically decided your entire week. 60+ points a week (basically 40% of your points) coming from one player is pretty ridiculous.

There was a draft. It had to be rescheduled due to a yahoo failure, but we did have a live draft. Which team were you?? Anyway, as said above, I will look at the rules before next season.

Congrats on the Championship

Congrats on the Championship

Thanks. I was going to give a vbuck prize for the winner (100 mil?), but now I will donate it to charity. Being league commish and getting first pick makes it seem cheap. Adrian Peterson (3rd round pick) was the main reason I won.

Hmm... maybe we're not talking about the same league? I just realized I might be way off here, because my name was IrishLax in all IE leagues. I played in two IE leagues this year...

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/56290 is the one I assumed you were talking about. I paid very little attention to this league because I thought the scoring was totally whack and I did autodraft. This is the league I was giving scoring feedback on.

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/78882 is the one where I somehow won the championship despite having a quite average team and a bunch of injuries.
