I'm still alive but barely.

Doesn't help that I have to take 0s at kicker every week due to injuries and surprising cuts.

I'm sorry, but there are no such thing as surprising kicker cuts. All the kickers that got cut had warning signs.

No need to apologize. I tried to find bargains. I was surprised but that’s my error.

So we’re saying, for next year, it might be better to NOT shop from the $3 bargain bin anymore, and instead put a few more bucks towards kickers?

No. Some cheapies have no warts and are quite safe. If you go back in this thread, I said my safest $3 kicker was Cairo Santos, and his only wart was limited distance. But I doubted he would lose his job because he is accurate. And his 20.2 points in week 4 saved alot of teams.

Not to jinx anything (although as soon as I say that...) I'm feeling like I and the other 19 remaining contestants who have both Puka and CMC are going into this week with significantly less stress than we otherwise might have...

Yeah great result for a TNF game

Yeah you warned me away from Gano. I went with Cairo Santos instead. Thanks good buddy.

Idea - what if we, as a Shark Pool collective, could come up with "expert teams" at each position? We may be able to build the prefect team for next year. I would gladly join the kicker squad, because I suck at everything else.

I have Santos on my already-eliminated team

Guess kicker wasn’t my problem.

 

[Dacomish]

Lots of great posts in here but checking…. @apalmer are you still eliminated, just like me?

I feel this post with every sence of week 1 bounce bone in my body.....is it postseason contest time yet?

 

[SeniorVBDStudent]

I'll sign up for the Borg Collective.

Resistance is futile.

Last time I checked, but I did get the Super Special Subscriber deal, so I'm waiting for my 2nd chance bonus to kick in.

My Mega Platinum Triple Chance Jackpot Subscription has me already picking my playoff contest team.
@Dacomish turned me on to this level of Subscription, so get on board too. I think there’s only one slot remaining.

OK, start with this mentality - 2 RBs for $13/each are better than 1 RB at $26. And so on .... You want protection from injuries, and byes, and your RB getting the flu on Sunday, or being game-planned into a single digit score, or being ejected during the game, or his team fighting from behind with the passing game, or ...... then better to have a next man up mentality.
