FF has come full circle. Or something.
Almost 1/3 of the way through the season, if you don't have LJ (Rock in ShiningPath says "Thanks")/Allen/Hurts/MAYBE Mahomes.....you have no chance.

We start QBs who play in a league that is specifically designed to produce as many points from the passing game as possible. How can something like this even happen?
Pip's Invitation
Footballguy
I started two TEs and both left their games with injuries.

Footballguy
A broken ankle in one, a coach who wouldn't let the QB throw in another, a pulled QB in another, a concussed QB who never returned from the first play in the last one.
And there you have it.
My QBs have lasted twice. That accounted for a paltry sixteen of those twenty or so points. They averaged eight per start in the games they lasted.
Really crazy bad luck and bad quarterbacking.

Oh well. No biggie. Bah God, that's Jimmy G's music!

I have almost no start/sit decisions to make due to injuries.My partner and I could win a "worst sit/start decisions" competition. For instance, Yahoo gave us an "F" last week, when we lost solely on the basis of our QB decision.But somehow it looks like we'll be 3-2 anyway. I credit his drafting and waiver-wire moves!

Jimmy G got you 18 points on your bench. Sorry about Teddy and Higgins. Beating someone who has lost some players in the game isn't as fun as beating them on an even playing field.

I saw a great Earth, Wind, and Fire cover band Friday night in Durham. They were a lot of fun. I saw Rissi Palmer and Chatham County Line on Saturday night in Raleigh, and they both were great too. It was a bummer though when one of my best friends told me that her and her husband are moving back to California in a couple of years.

Just hoping I can squeak out some QB points week 7 when the love of my life Josh Allen is on bye.
Added Andy Dalton, QB, Saints
Lyle Lovett - Church
Both from the Houston area.

That's too bad, simey. Always tough to see a friend switch locations and leave us at our age. Bummer.

As for football, I was missing two guys (they were later found in the Persian Palace in the masseuse room) and still scored a hundred points. Argh. And I still would have lost. Watch those effers from Katmankoo. They'll accommodate you right, but they mean business.

Music fans: my friend Nora's first solo album in 18 years came out a few days ago. This is a great article about it, and about the work she's been doing in the interim, winning a Grammy with Mavis Staples, recording/touring with Neko Case, The Decemberists, Wilco, etc. It was Nora's work with Andrew Bird in the 90s that led to his smoking pot on my roofdeck on NYE 1999, among other times.
Anyway, despite my not loving female voices generally, Nora's is special. I like the songs "Sore" and "Grace" best so far. She sounds like Emmylou on "Grace."
She credits the Fruit Bats with some of her inspiration on this! I wish notifications worked, but I'll try to get @shuke in here with one anyway. He turned me onto the Fruit Bats, so I'll come full circle turning him onto her.

They're all physical therapists, darn it! Giving licensed rub treatments!
At least that's the excuse we got from the players. Hmm....

My week began with Nyheim Hines getting knocked out on the first series of the Thursday night game and somehow ended with 169 points.

It seems both my QBs have the same bye week coming up this week.
Anyone want to trade their backup for Tannehill? Willing to take a lesser QB in the exchange.

I have Zach Wilson and sent you an offer.

I'm in the office today and can't get on the Yahoo site. I'll look when I get home.

I have six players on a bye this week, and just enough players to field a bad team against the #1 Akers of Hurt.

I'd trade you either Dalton or Cooper Rush and then trade Tanny back to you after week 7 if you like.
Dr. Octopus
Footballguy
Thanks but that sounds illegal in most leagues - I'm ok with a straight up trade. I will say I think I have a better offer already though than those 2.
facook
Footballguy
You may be right, didn't think about that but I've never done something like that before. Sometimes I'm just naïve.
rockaction
Footballguy
Thanks, Doc. An agreement like that is illegal, even in our fun league. I forget exactly what it's called, but I think it's under the collusion rubric.
Dr. Octopus
Footballguy
"roster sharing" or something like that, which does fit under the wider "collusion" umbrella.

Understandable. I was re-reading our Desert Island Alphabet draft we did in 2017 last night. John Madden's Lunchbox ran it. I miss wikkid. He was in good form that draft. Not bagging too much on the new stuff, and just being amiable. He did his "I quit" schtick at the beginning, but he was totally down. He drafted some interesting albums. Radiohead's OK Computer, among others that I'm now forgetting and kicking myself that I forgot.
