NFL Fantasy Football Keeper 2016

[Junkhead]

I had a dream Dennis Pitta went off for 74.5 points.

He probably did...for the season.

 

[IrishLion]

I had a dream that AJ Green is perfectly healthy, no worries at all.

Patriots' Rob Gronkowski to have back surgery, season likely over

Zeke Squad looking beatable all of a sudden.

I got worked.

It is clear that AJ Green and Gronk need to stay healthy haha

This entire year of football is cursed; burn it down; I wanna die.

 

[Irish Insanity]

I have 3, now decent, TEs. Problem is the rest of my team sucks.

Random rant from someone not in this league.

I am in a league with a 40$ entry fee. My sister-in-law is the commish. Before the season started the draft order changed 4 times. Now she just changed the playoff format from top 4 teams for weeks 15 and 16, to top 8 teams in weeks 15, 16, and 17.

I am in first place, my brother is in 6th place and she is in, you guessed it, 8th place.

To top things off when I said something on the league page and she went off on me for ruining the league and taking the fun out of it. I explained the fun part is winning $480.

She already hates me because she thinks I am racist and thinks I hate poor people.

Somehow I ended up with four RB2s. Not counting the fact that I traded my WR1 for Eddie Lacy a week before he went on IR.

But do you

This is beyond bullshit. I would not play with them again if I were you. Not much else you can do.

That's the first question I ask when I get in a new league, before even asking about payouts: How many teams make the playoffs?

I've been in two leagues where commissioners or their buddies were sitting too low for playoffs, and suddenly they want to expand the field, or say "oh no we meant for it to be 8 teams all along, I just forgot to change it in preseason."

Bullshit. Unless it was legitimately discussed and not changed, that shit is set in stone.

It's pretty bullshit that Yahoo or whoever even lets that happen in the first place.

I control whether I want to guarantee myself 6th or try and stay in 5th tonight. I think I prefer a matchup with wizards in the first round but Lion without AJ Green is not as scary as he used to be. Assuming I win next week, I am looking at IM8 or irish o'phile. IM8 is generally more scary but o'phile has some juicy matchups. Probably no chance I get past either of them but I am debating who I would rather play. I may just let it play out and if I beat Junkhead so be it.

 

[wizards8507]

You want to face me.

 

[IrishLion]

I want to face myself.

I built a goddamn machine via drafting and trading up, like Dwight Schrute starting with a pin and ending up with a telescope. But now I have an average team, and my hopes rest with Zeke and Roethlisberger carrying the weight, and hoping that Demarco Murray keeps getting TD's.

 

[gkIrish]

You want to face me.

Yeah I suppose. I probably won't win tonight anyway so I'll end up in 6th.

Dwight traded the telescope for magic beans, brah.

 

[IrishLion]

I didn't go past the telescope. AJ Green was my telescope.

I don't know which mirage of a player would be the magic beans that people are over-valuing currently.

 

[ShakeDown]

Good luck to all in the playoffs. Missed out on a spot because of Kaepernick totally shitting the bed. Lost by 6 pts

 

[gkIrish]

Rubber match between zards and I. Doesn't matter because neither of us is winning the following week though.

 

[gkIrish]

IM8, I just sent you $120 for your regular season 1st place winnings.

Thank you sir. See you in the semifinals?

 

[gkIrish]

Thank you sir. See you in the semifinals?

We shall see.

 

[Junkhead]

Well, I'm done. Rough year, gave up soooo many points every week, hundreds more than everyone! Zeke, you got lucky, both of my starting running backs (Forte and M. Gordon) went down with injuries before getting to 1 point! My money is on Ironman ftw.

After losing AJ Green and Gronk late in the year, I'll take any luck I can get haha.

But for real, I was happy to steal this one, as I didn't think I had a hope or a prayer as the 1pm games were being played. It was a pleasant surprise to check in before the SNF game and see that I only needed like 10 points between Zeke and the Dallas defense.

I honestly didn't think I had a chance no matter what, even if my guys had big games, because you've been putting up big points all year.

 

[gkIrish]

Need Brady + Edelman to score less than 37.76 pts combined. I'd say it's 50/50.

 

[bkess8]

So glad this season is over! Looking forward to forgetting about my poor performance.

 

[gkIrish]

Brutal loss. Unreal. One more second ticks off the clock on the onside kick and the Pats never throw.

Not sure if a knee is -.1 or -.2 but if it's .2 I could have won if the Pats converted on 3rd down and took a knee on 4th. So many unlikely things had to happen for me to lose there.

 

[irish o'phile]

In my big $ I got killed by Brady, Bell, T. Hill, and a hurt Melvin Gordon. Hopefully i do better in this league.

 

[wizards8507]

Ingram, Martin, Stewart, Gore

Bench one.
