    Rotoworld "Man-Crush Index"

    Maybe I'm just becoming an irrational fan, but this has become my fave guilty fant football pleasure. Gives me a break from all the number-crunching and serious stuff. I mean, Jesus talking about dumpster babies . . . in a fantasy football column?! :goodposting: ;) RISERS Kurt Warner: Being...

    Possible suspensions

    LJ is a repeat behavior offender with his off-field actions against women, and Santonio admitted he smoked the ganja the day before being stopped, and has had a couple run-ins with johnny law since being drafted. So, do you think both guys get 4-game suspensions? One of 'em? Neither? FWIW, my...

    More Rotoworld humor

    Always a good read... :goodposting: http://rotoworld.com/content/features/colu...articleid=31274 Couple highlights: RISERS Mewelde Moore: Holy attrition. Pittsburgh RB's must've guzzled from the same tainted water supply as Seattle WR's. (I picture them all in a hospital, legs in traction...

    Some funny ####e

    Couple funny tidbits from Rotoworld's Man-Crush Index... http://rotoworld.com/content/features/colu...articleid=31221 FALLERS Brandon Lloyd: Digging deeper here, but someone's gotta catch Kyle Orton's boozy knuckleballs, and it seems Lloyd has become the most attractive WR option in Chicago...

    Shawn Merriman: How many friggin opinions is it going to take?

    Great line (bold below) from a blog that I've been reading for a couple years & got some notice here last season -- Mark St. Amant's (former FBG'er I think, led the pack in WCOFF almost 'til the end last season, etc.) NY Times.com FF column...he had a piece today on random mock draft...

    Ryan Grant ESPN commercial

    Anyone see the new ESPN fantasy football commercial starring Ryan Grant that's been running on Sportscenter? Some dude's working on his lawn and Grant appears out of nowhere and starts talking about finding "this year's Ryan Grant".... i.e. RB who's gonna bust out of nowhere like he did...and...

    A fantasy baseball soap opera?

    Buddy in my league just sent me this link, what a great idea (I thought it was funny anyway, but then again I'm a roto baseball geek). ...I kept pausing the main video to catch the MLB and ESPN expert cameos...Posada, Utley, Torii Hunter, Hanley Ramirez, Matthew Berry...any others I missed? Try...

    So why didn't that fat tub of goo Ron Dayne play?

    Started Dayne over Selvin at Flex :wall: after seeing what he did last week off the bench and figuring Indy might rest some defensive starters later in the game (and the Colts were missing some guys on the DLine to begin with). And what happens? That fat piece of ##### sits on the bench all...

    Reminder that Kubiak learned everything he knows from

    Darius Walker will start against the Buccaneers in Week 16. Ron Dayne (ankle) will be a game-time call. Dayne was also a game-day decision last Thursday night, and came off the bench to carry about half the load despite Walker starting. If Dayne is inactive, Adimchinobe Echemandu will be...

    How Welker gets his strength

    Funny Chuck Norris/Jack Bauer-esque read from the New York Times fantasy blog... Laveranues Coles/Jerricho Cotchery: I’m generally downgrading any receivers playing in New England on Sunday due to the looming Nor’easter. (Except Wes Welker, of course, who once ran out into the middle of the...

    Ahman Green OUT vs. TENN

    Per Rotoworld..... Ahman Green (knee) has been downgraded to "out" for Week 13. The Texans were optimistic when the week began, but Green's knee is still an issue. Coach Gary Kubiak hopes he'll be able to contribute in the final four weeks. Ron Dayne will start against the Titans, who are...

    Ahman downgraded to OUT

    ROTOWORLD: Ahman Green (knee) has been downgraded to out for Week 11. Ron Dayne will start, but has a difficult matchup against the Saints and will likely lose touches to Joe Echemandu. Still, either backup would be a decent flex. Dayne could dominate the workload if it's a close game, but...

    Would you feel OK starting Kurt Warner from here on out?

    He's got some injury worries, yes, but you can't argue with the ridiculous ease of Arizona's schedule from here on out: CIN (2nd most fantasy points allowed to QBs), SF (9th), CLE (1st), SEA, NO (6th), ATL next six weeks. Only Seattle and ATL are tougher vs. the pass. And old or not, Warner will...

    One year later...who's the "dumb" pick, Bush or LJ?

    Was looking for some fantasy football commercials on YouTube and came across this from last year's pre-season...in hindsight, who was the "dumb" pick, LJ or Reggie? :goodposting:

    Gates owners: Had you ever drafted a TE in early rounds before

    Until this season -- aside from one year listed below -- I've always let my league mates jump on TE's early while I snagged upside RBs/WRs. But this year I went against every natural drafting instinct in my body and took Gates early. Damn glad I did. I know it depends on scoring system in most...

    With SJax now likely out until Week 10 (and possibly beyond, IMO)

    ...someone a little more proven yet reasonable value-wise for a rookie on a bad team, like a Marion Barber? With Rotoworld* saying SJax could now be out until after their bye -- and I posted yesterday that I can't shake the feeling that SJax, in a lost season for STL, will be shut down entirely...

    Raise your hand if you think SJax will be out for most of year?

    I'm not a doctor and I've never played one on TV, in summer stock theater or elsewhere. But the medical information coming out of STL camp seems to be hazy at best re: SJax's return, and what we do read/hear is not positive (e.g. Rotoworld: "That he's been ruled out so quickly for Week 6 doesn't...

    What's Marion Barber worth?

    Just curious about A) what you M.Barber owners would want in exchange for him WR-wise -- is he worth a Moss/Wayne-type, or more like a Roy/Fitz/Coles-level guy -- or B) what you non-Barber owners (who might be trying to trade for him) are offering? With all the RB busts and injuries, he seems to...

    In leagues where *ALL* touchdowns are 6pts...

    Seems that Peyton is sometimes being taken anywhere from 3-5 in leagues where all TDs -- rush, rec, and pass -- are 6 pts. He's a lock first rounder in this scoring system. But if any of you play in leagues like this or have seen mocks, where have the next tier guys like Palmer, Brees, Brady...
