as unbelievable as it may seem, diesel, some guys actually take a break from this site for a few monthsI read Jeff's post as a "head's up", for those folks knocking the rust off the FBG's link in their list of favorites
There is something more important than byes that you did not list. Any "cheatsheet" is woefully inadequate without it.
Thanks bagger. I meant cheatsheet not draft sheet.You are right that is the most important place for bye wk info. It's a must.
Cheers bagger
As stated in my first post, I would not worry about the bye weeks at all. Therefore I agree with SSOG. If you are looking to grab your backup QB I would make sure that he is not off the same week, but I wouldn't force any picks and take a lesser guy because of the bye...I would wait until the following round if that were the case.Get the best players!Which is exactly why I said that I don't take bye weeks into consideration unless I'm specifically drafting someone to be nothing more than a bye-week starter.With that said, I never let bye weeks scare me off of a guy who I think is the best talent available. I don't even look at byes until I get to the "fill out your roster" stage of the game. Even if only HALF of my team has the same bye week instead of the whole team, it still provides the same advantage- just to a lesser extent.
C'Mon the only thing baseball had printed for the longest time was Batting averages and they don't tell you much compared to On base % and Slug %...People think it is important, but it really isn't. That being said they should be on the list because you need to know when to play your backups.We are over 175 members on this board now.How many of you have not thought about the Bye week yet?
For those of us in leagues where the draft/auction IS the most important part of the season because we don't have unlimited free agent moves to pick up the players de jour (As stated in my first post, I would not worry about the bye weeks at all. Therefore I agree with SSOG. If you are looking to grab your backup QB I would make sure that he is not off the same week, but I wouldn't force any picks and take a lesser guy because of the bye...I would wait until the following round if that were the case.Get the best players!Which is exactly why I said that I don't take bye weeks into consideration unless I'm specifically drafting someone to be nothing more than a bye-week starter.
), this is indeed important info to be on top of. 
Without reading any further, are you just being a smartass for no reason? I have no knowledge of Jeff Pasquino's FF knowledge but I will tell you he is a very bright guy outside of the Shark pool...his knowledge in real estate is making me a lot of money...so I wouldn't be so quick to trounce on someone just because you thought of the FF schedule 3 months ago...BIG ####### DEAL! There are people that have lives. There are some great posters in this Shark pool that unfortunately, now have lives very different for the better I might add than what they did 5 years ago...so maybe...just maybe not everyone has been reading who they should pick from way back in April. I promise you though that many of these posters will catch up to your vast superiour FF knowledge in naoseconds...promise. So please just keep that tool factor on the back of your behind down to a minimum...PLEASE!
Damn MOP. I'm sorry you thought that I was a smartass.I was thanking Jeff. I would never trounce anyone,especially Jeff. Jeff was the one that warned us of the bye week in early July which I did not know until he said it in a thread. I thanked him in july when he posted this.
MOP is it possible that you thought I posted this?
Jeff addressed him not me. I supported Jeff all the way w/this thread.
Now I can see that torquing your jaw.It wasn't me.
My most sincere apology. I'd take down my post but it may actually serve for what not to do on here so I''ll leave it. It just came across as a real smarty type post...maybe I mixed you and diesel together...again I truly am sorry.
Thanks MOP.I love your posts and would hate to think you thought bad of me.
:( I doubt it we live 3,000 miles apart.But I would love to
w/ MOP.
Is he in my league (#4)? The draft tracker picked Gates and Gonzales for someone who tpre-drafted because he'd miss the beginning of the draft.
Yes he is in league 4. What league is your friend in?If poeple look at those leagues they will see some bye week problems.
Welker has a good matchup (esp in ppr leagues) and Booker should miss 2 weeks.I have Booker in all 5 leagues I'm inMinistry of Pain said:
.I only have 1 league with a chance at Welker , my main league.The others I'm sol.Good luck.From one Penn Stater to another, great minds think alike.I picked up Parker last night before I posted.FBGs helping FBGs.We All knew it was coming and reminded by this thread, yet injuries and under performing players leave us needing to make pick ups.For Paid subscribers this is easier. Plus we get the best to worst matchups e-mailed to us. Now all we have to do is match the waiver wire w/the match ups.
