Drafting with guppies (1 Viewer)

Haters forgot to post the link again this week? Another win. Tied for 2nd place at 5-2. 4th highest point scorer in the league. The lady that has the God awful team that got lucky against me (any given Sunday) by 2 pts is at 2-5 with 2nd worst points scored. :thumbup: http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/340637/recap?week=7&mid1=1&mid2=8

4th in points in a league full of women and children, you should be proud. From reading your posts on here, I'd have picked you to finish dead last. Way to overachieve, Rudy.
 
12 team league. Actually tied for 2nd... 4 th due to points scored but lotsa football left. My top 3 players are done with bye weeks - Brees Demaryus Thomas and Forte. And Gates too who seems to be turning it around. Jordy back to being Jordy from last year and Britt seems to have a shot to be WR2 rest of the way.....

If things go your way you could be the King of the Guppies! Well done!

This thread gets me every time. It's just a glorified and much more embarrassing "hey look at my awesome team" signature. Sweetness, seriously, thanks for the laughs dude. :thumbup:

Have to believe the fact that he got butthurt when no one bumped it and bumped it himself only proves my initial post in this thread. i.e. Trolling from the start.
 
Purpose of this thread? I've avoided it all season. Seems like the ultimate troll thread. Oh wait, that's the entire shark pool....

 
We've got 2 females in our league this year. They're currently 1 and 2 in our league. The #1 team is undefeated at the moment. There ARE girls who know fantasy.

Are you seriously that dense? Here is what happened week #6:

4-2....2nd place. Kenny Britt and Gates back to stud like production. Forte should get back on track.....how come no one posted a link after this week? :rolleyes:

Look at post #174 where I posted your first 5 weeks results. Please notice that over 3 days ago I updated it to include the week 6 results as soon as they were final. Nice awareness.

Now do me a favor and look at post #174 and you will see it was magically updated yesterday to include the week 7 results too. If you want to bump your thread that's cool, but please stop the ignorant "haters forgot to post a link" blather. Both times you've used that line the links had already been posted. Do you see a pattern?

I kind of feel bad for you at this point, so let me give you some honest, constructive advice: This thread went badly for you. It made you look really stupid, and we all had a good laugh about it. These things happen. The only way you could possibly make yourself look even stupider than you already did is by bumping the thread after winning a game with the 4th-highest score and moving into a tie for second place. It's not helping your case, and even if you go undefeated the rest of the season and win your guppy-league championship game by 1,000 points, the best outcome for you is to never bump this thread again and hope everyone else forgets about it. :thumbup:
 
I have already updated post #174. I will continue to update that post until I reach the limit of quotes. You should already know the results though, the OP didn't bump the thread so it's a good bet he lost.

Did not start the Miami Dolphins Defense, which scored 25.00 points and beat their projected point total by a team-leading 95.9%.

Picked up and started the New York Jets Defense, which scored a team-worst 8.0% of their projected point total for 1.00 point, which was also last on the team.

Ouch. That's gotta sting.

You want a good headache....get into a guppies league and I guarantee you will not know what to do when it is your turn to draft. Tonight I had my draft with a league that I am in for many years now. It is friends from work and we have a great time....but the value that falls in these drafts and the mistakes that are made are hilarious. Here are some salient features of this draft which will help you get ready for such a draft:- Someone drafted Matt Bryant - K, ATL in the 3rd round (3.01) thinking he was drafting Matt Ryan, QB Atl. And this is an online draft on yahoo so I am not sure how he went and searched for Matt bryant.- Someone drafted Ryan Grant late - The guy who drafted MJD at 1.12 did not get Jennings and I get him in the 16th round.- This draft always has a run on QBs. So knowing that, I drafted Brees with 1.06 after the first 5 picks were top 3 RBs and Rodgers + Brady. Guess who goes 1.09 and 1.11 => Stafford and Cam Newton. Now it is a 6 pt/TD league but really? - Brandon Marshall went 2.01 which is not all that bad. - Mike Turner and Frank Gore went 3.5 and 3.9, before Charles, Ryan Matthews, Steven Jackson etc- Greg Jennings went 2.4One team (49 er homer) actually drafted as follows from 1.09:Stafford => Greg Jennings => Frank Gore => San Fran D (yes in the 4th round) => Vernon Davis => Vincent Jackson => David Akers => Andrew Luck => Mike Tolbert => Mario Manningham => Gresham => Houston D => Laurent Robinson => Dexter McCluster => Burleson => Mike Nugent => Bernard ScottI am still staring at her team on the screen completely perplexed at the incompetency of FF drafting. If this team above wins it all, I will never ever play FF again....I mean it. Sorry I had to share this experience with some folks. While I am still in shock at the craziness that ensued at the draft, I landed up with the following team from 1.06. This is a 1 Qb, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 WR/RB, TE, D, K league:QB: Brees (1.6)RB: Forte (2.7); Isaac Redman (6.7), Kevin Smith (8.7), Ryan Williams (9.6), Benson (13.6), Rashad Jennings (16.7) WR: Jordy Nelson (3.6), Demaryus Thomas (4.7), Kenny Britt (7.6), Amendola (10.7), Lance Moore (12.7)TE: Antonio Gates (5.6), Jacon Tamme (11.6)K: Gostowski (14.7)D: Cincy (15.6), Minnesota (17.6)

I'm glad Statcruncher does it. It's rare I enjoy following a fantasy team that's not mine, but I want to see what happens.
 
I feel bad for the guy (or girl). He (or she) hasn't bumped the thread in a long time. Maybe they realize they screwed up with the start of this thread.

The Shark pool is ruthless.

I was actually doing that out of sympathy for the OP. I wanted to keep his results up to date, but didn't want to be the one who kept bumping this thread to the top each week. By editing my post instead of adding a new one each week this thread had a chance to die instead of being prolonged agony to the OP.After further review, seeing the OP talking smack after his last 2 wins and being MIA following his last 2 losses, and the overwhelming enjoyment some folks are getting out of this thread, I will go ahead and list the results in a new post every week.
