Do you have to manually enter your roster for "Rate My Team," or if you're linked to this league in MyFBG, is there a button you can just click somewhere?

I just typed mine in yesterday ...easy to do as the names pop up as you type. I haven't heard back yet, though.

:lol: That's looking pretty good now!

After looking at the standings and seeing the Points For on each division - it looks like the divisions are named appropriately. :X

That's what you #######s get for putting me in the "slow" division. I'm playing with a chip on my shoulder now! :boxing:

 
Got your check, Tri-man. Thanks!

I tried sending you a PM, but your inbox is full. Thanks for the encouraging note!

 
Tri-Man off to a hot start!! What a turn around from last year...

With bye weeks starting, it's going to be interesting to see how everyone's depth (or lack of) will change things.

Since I didn't hear gripes, I've updated the website to match the 6 team playoff format.

 
I shouldn't be complaining being 5-1, but prioritizing Coleman over Freeman then missing Freeman by one pick on the way back and choosing an extra TE over Dion Lewis are not looking like good moves.

I don't know what I can trade, but if somehow any of you have an extra RB let me know.

Boobie Dixon is yours!

 
I just wanted to take the opportunity to pat myself on the back for dunking one undefeated team (suck it MAC :P ).

Definitely need to do this now as my team sucks pretty bad and I'm 98% sure this kind of result won't come around again.

 
As if Luck playing like total dog#### wasn't enough, now he's out for 2-6 weeks with a lacerated kidney. #####.

PS: Is tri-man seriously gonna run the table? :shock:

I was very vulnerable last week - Forte out, Floyd on a bye, Marshall questionable. If AAA had just covered his RB and WR byes with LeSean and DeSean, he'd have beaten me (inserting Mariota and Beasley would have put him over 100 points!). If. As they say, if my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle.

The train's back rollin' again. :boxing:

 
Speaking of Fantasy Football. I am only in one league these days, a long time league that I've been in close to 20 years. It's a keeper with 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 WR and 1 Wild Card, then you keep 1 DST or K.

I made a preseason trade moving Matt Ryan and Jeremy Hill for Andrew Luck.

So I started the season with a starting lineup of

QB - Andrew Luck (keeper)
RB - Jamaal Charles (keeper)
RB - Leveon Bell (keeper)
WR - Julio Jones (keeper)
WR - Keenan Allen (1st round)
TE - Kyle Rudolph
PK - Steven Hauschka (Keeper)
DEF - Minnesota

That's a beast mode lineup. I had to start Khiry Robinson for 2 games until Leveon Bell came back. Now, I have lost 4 of those top 5 guys. In all my years of fantasy football I've never been so destroyed by injuries. Dudes, I've lost two guys to LACERATED KIDNEYS!! After the Charles loss, I made a trade to get Carson Palmer and Danny Woodhead which have started every game for me since. It cost me Charles as a keeper, but I figured it shored me up for a playoff run, little did I know I would then lose Luck, Bell and Allen to season ending injuries (in the case of Luck he may be back by the fantasy playoffs)

I changed my team name to Lacerated Kidneys this morning.

What sucks almost as bad as the injuries is that because I've kept limbing by and winning I've had the 12th waiver spot almost every week so I never get any of my replacements. The irony is that since I've lost them gradually over the season I'm still in 1st place 7-2 and almost a lock for the playoffs where I suppose anything can happen.

I got this :boxing: with a whopping 76 points. Down week for the old man.

 
Yeah, not thrilled to now lose Edelman. And having just trading Floyd, he taunts me with yardage and two-first half TDs on Sunday night. But Sole Asylum is picking up his third loss, so I still have a 2-game cushion in the Fast Guys division (and I beat SA in our week 1 meeting). ...still expecting a play-off bye and a championship run.

Good football weekend for you, Duck!

 
Start 6-2 last year, lose five in a row to just miss the playoffs.

Start 5-0 this year, about to fall to 6-4.

I seem to do fantasy football like I run races. Blazing start then sputter to a painful finish.

:bag: I've played just one league for 15 years - for some reason I thought it was a good idea to play 3 this year. I keep missing out on WW, byes and lineup changes because I'm stupid and think I've done all 3. Isn't helping that life has taken a Dentist-esque dump on me lately.

I'm in two fantasy leagues, and that's enough for me!

Beyond the football, I hope life gets back on track for you soon.

 
My team, both in a talent and statistical sense, is horrid. Just miserably bad.

Stick a fork in me.

 
Here's the current playoff standings (also posted on front page of league site):

Code: 
1   Tri-man            9-1; 1092.0 2   SteveC             7-3; 1077.3 3   Sole Asylum        7-3; 1047.7 4   Gruecd             7-3; 966.7 5   SFBayDuck          6-4; 983.8 6   MAC                6-4; 939.5 --------------------------------- 7   PhatDawg           5-5; 1025.7 8   Juxt's Skinny Mofo 5-5; 957.3 9   Nigel              5-5; 944.1 10  Ned                5-5; 901.0 11  Three Thousand     4-6; 961.2 12  Steel Curtain      4-6; 910.3 13  Sand               4-6; 817.8 14  PBM                3-7; 1025.1 15  AAABatteries       2-8; 664.3 16  ChiefD             1-9; 906.9

You can take some comfort in the fact that I'm the fourth highest scoring team in the league ... and that's 5-5 Phatdawg, thank you very much!

In doing the standings, I did notice the lopsided strength of schedule. Poor pbm is 3-7, but 5th scoring team. OUCH!

Even more shocking is that POS team AAABatteries having 2 wins with 664pts.

 
Is AAA even playing? He had mccoy on his bench and started cj Anderson.

And he has Terence west on his roster.

Sweet. I only need to win about 14 in a row to have a chance.

 
Nice! Late 3rd qtr in the Thursday night game: I haven't played anyone yet ...but I lead. (MAC getting negative points from his Tennessee RB.)

 
Update playoff standings as of week 12. If you're not listed, you've been mathematically eliminated. GL to the contenders!

Some good week 13 games:

Duck vs Gruecd - Can Gruecd piece a team together to save his injury riddled season?

Phatdawg vs Tri-man - Phatdawg will need to knock off the white hot #1 seed to avoid going to OA points tiebreaker.

PBM vs Sole Asylum - Even though PBM is eliminated, he's the 2nd highest scoring team in the league. Sole is most likely going to have to win to stay alive.

Code: 
1   Tri-man            11-1; 1278.4 (bye) CLINCHED #12   SteveC             9-3; 1254.6 (bye) CLINCHED #2 3   SFBayDuck          8-4; 1172.8  4   PhatDawg           7-5; 1223.5 5   Sole Asylum        7-5; 1192.5 6   Gruecd             7-5; 1098.9 --------------------------------- 7   Three Thousand     6-6; 1137.3 8   MAC                6-6; 1110.0
 
If Sole and Dawg score points I'd think they'd be safe. Unless 3K or I go nuts and they tank grue's really the only variable. Didn't realize that about pbm though. Always brutal when that happens...

It wasn't enough to give me the last pick in the draft, you guys had to average 112 points/game against me for the season.

Yeah, I almost put the 'clinched' tag on them, but stranger things have happened!

Tough break, pbm.

if I lose to go 7-6, and the other 3 teams all win, I only have a 55 pt lead on 3k. That should be sufficient, but who knows?

the first tie-breaker is overall points, right?

 
Right...seeding tiebreakers = Winning %, Overall Points Scored, Head to Head

Lots of possible scenarios can play out. Should be interesting.
