Another quality, insightful thread started by Butt Monkey. Joe & the staff should consider making your threads susbscriber-only.

5 hours into Sunday's NFL action and no one has anything to boast about? I'm shocked. Everybody can't be losing.
I'll go ahead and give myself a pat on the back for drafting Marques Colston in the final round of each of my two leagues and for starting him quite a few times this year, including in both leagues this week. I'm also glad that I wasn't dumb enough to trade him yet, since I can see no way that I'd get equal value for him. Most owners still think he's a fluke.

I must have missed the FBG memo on him; had NO IDEA who this guy was when he was drafted late in our 12 teamer this year....

In one league I started the following players today:
Michael Vick
Reggie Wayne
Marques Colston
Joe Horn
Steven Jackson
Robbie Gould
...among others.
Needless to say I am up by a lot.
ETA: In another league I started:
Peyton Manning
Colston
Ahman Green
Chris Henry
Andre Johnson
And the Bears are 7-0!

We're here...
That's what it means to be a fan. We take the good and the bad, and we're still fans regardless.

LOL...these losses would be much harder to take if the Steelers were actually playing well. Some years it's just not meant to be. This team will be back, maybe not this year, but they have the young talent to compete for a while.

Stiller fans make enough boasting threads here, you even have your own "smilie"Roll with the punches when you lose.
I bet those two losing seasons in the past 15 years have been real tough on you.

Any team that has enjoyed the success of the Steelers for the past five seasons and most of the past 15 seasons will have their share of boastful comments from its fans. It's not disproportionate. I think the majority of the threads that include pro-Steelers posts start like this one -- simply baiting the Steeler fanbase with obvious sarcasm. As for the towel smiley... the towel has risen beyond a Pittsburgh novelty to become a symbol of the league as a whole. If another team has a similar "organic" symbol emerge simultaneous with a dynasty widely recognized as among the best teams in league history, you can be pretty sure a smiley will follow.It's interesting that it's not enough for you to enjoy the struggles of a team you clearly have no love for -- in fact, you want it both ways. Steeler fans should "roll with the punches" now that the Steelers are losing, but you also don't want to see the Steelers "boasts" when they win. So basically, I guess Steeler fans simply should not post at all.

everyone laughed when I took LJ at 1-1 and then Wayne at 2-12.. Whoslaughing now..
Did I say the boasting was disproportionate?No.Did I say I didn't want to see the "boasts"?No.I know not all steeler fans fail at reading comprehension, but posts like yours make the rest of you look ignorant.Any team that has enjoyed the success of the Steelers for the past five seasons and most of the past 15 seasons will have their share of boastful comments from its fans.

It's ironic that you mention reading comprehension in an effort to insult me. Read my post again and you just might find out that I in no way, shape or form are accusing you of suggestions that Steelers "boast" posts are disproportionate. I love posters who are so eager to be clever that they trip over their own words.Did I say the boasting was disproportionate?No.Did I say I didn't want to see the "boasts"?No.I know not all steeler fans fail at reading comprehension, but posts like yours make the rest of you look ignorant.Any team that has enjoyed the success of the Steelers for the past five seasons and most of the past 15 seasons will have their share of boastful comments from its fans.

I am bold enough to say I am going to win mine. I just don't see who is going to beat me down the stretch. 10 team ppr league High performance scoring 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Def
QB - Brady (Hasslebeck)
RB - Rudi Johnson (Willis McGahee
RB - Shaun Alexander
WR - Terrell Owens (Roy Williams)
WR - Reggie Wayne
WR - Andre Johnson
TE - Dez Clark
K - Robbie Gould
D - Rotates depending on match-ups and availability.
I just don't see myself losing unless I get unlucky which can always happen. Currently 6-2

My Roster and starting requirements in sig.
His roster.
McNabb
Larry Johnson
LaDanian Tomlinson
Carnell Williams
Reggie Bush
Torry Holt
Chad Johnson
Randy Moss
Larry Fitzgerald
Matt Jones
Antonio Gates
Jeff Wilkins
Chargers DST
thats his starting lineup and a few reserves, i'm always finishing 2nd,..until people stop making stupid trades with him like (charlie frye, tony gonzalez for Gates) he'll keep winning.

Wow...that is an all star team if I ever seen one. Is that dynasty or is he that crafty?I've been trying to mold my team for the playoffs and I think I have what I consider my final team. Looking at the future schedules I should be good to go unless I play a team that just has an awesome week.QB - Favre/Rivers (been playing the matchups and it's worked out excellent)RB- Chester Taylor (cake playoff schedule)RB- S.Alexander (traded away TJ and Walker for him and a WR, awesome playoff schedule)WR- HarrisonWR- C.JohnsonWR- Jennings (clayton, lelie, parker)TE - HeapK - LongwellDef- San Diego / NE

Most owners would quit a league that had a team with that monopoly on talent.
