That seems to be the way it goes often. You drop someone, and then they have a great game. I always hope it doesn't happen, but more times than not it does.

I have Khalil Herbert in all three of my leagues. This is the only one I started him in, due to lack of other options.

Did your D/ST score more than negative-four points?

I drafted him in my auction league, where rookies are a premium for keeper purposes, and have held on to him. Hoping that pays off.

In my money league we have to play a rookie in an offensive position (QB, RB, WR, TE, or K) as a flex. The draft is always unpredictable due to the rookie factor.

Oh, that's a cool idea!

That is fun and adds some major twists to draft strategy

First year kickers seem like a market inefficiency in this format.

A lot of rookies are taken early in the draft. Breece Hall was the first rookie taken this year, and I think Kenny Pickett was the second. Pickett hasn't played yet, but he will. My rookies are D. Pierce and Garrett Wilson. I got Wilson in the 11th round. I hope Zach Wilson has good chemistry with him when he returns.

I was having bad luck one season with rookies, and so I picked up Harrison Butker as a rookie, and he did great for me.

That is genuinely funny. You made me laugh.
Lamar is balling out for me this year.
Is there a handy dandy guide that matches our Board names to our team names so that I know who I'm playing every week?

And I've had major injuries at every position. This game is crazy.Looks like we have only one undefeated team after this week - congrats to Pip!
Parity is the name of the game, it seems.

Mrs. R. done got me this week.
On to next week. Big simey bowl coming. Can my 0-3 Toney Island Babies find their Toney for once? Will he practice? Will he play?
I wish he just wanted to win one for the coach.

You know, man, when I was a young man in high school
You believe it or not, I wanted to play football for the coach
And all those older guys
They said that he was mean and cruel, but you know
Wanted to play football for the coach
They said I was a little too light weight to play linebacker
So's I'm playing right end
Wanted to play football for the coach
'Cause, you know some day, man
You gotta stand up straight unless you're gonna fall
Then you're going to die
And the straightest dude
I ever knew was standing right for me all the time
So I had to play football for the coach

I am 7th in points scored but 1st in fewest points allowed. In a tight league such as this, the latter is a major factor.

You and me this week @rockaction, 15 vs 16 in the matchup of the week! Everyone is tuning into to this clash of the titans! I’ve been chasing off news crews on my front lawn all week. Hope the paparazzi is not hunting you down to much too. I mean can I just run a quick errand in peace!
But truth is I understand, can you really blame them, the people want to know what’s gonna happen.

Since this is a music draft, I'll leave this here.
The Smithereens' 1986 album Especially For Your is back on Spotify after an absence of several years. It's always been my favorite of theirs with two sides full of great songs and one of the strongest backbeats of all time.

Darnell Mooney is just not cut out to be his team's WR1 - should have seen that one coming.
facook
Footballguy
To be fair, NO ONE on that offense would be a good #1.
Dr. Octopus
Footballguy
That's the issue - no one else to take coverage away. Mooney can't beat the top corners that are now on him. It also doesn't help that Fields (who I was a fan of coming into the league) looks over-matched at this level. His o-line and weapons aren't doing him any favors.

Speaking of da Bears offensive juggernaut, I added
Trestan Ebner - RB - Chicago
Rumbleseat - Trestles
Trestan Ebner is a really hard name to find a song to match.

When your QBs are a severely underperforming Russell Wilson and Marcus frickin' Mariota, then you take a stab at something.
Kenny Pickett - QB - #8

We don't really intend to churn D/STs, but we're looking for one that will garner us more than -4 points! 
Bears D/ST
**** Butkus was #51:
The Strokes - 12:51
For good measure, here are some Bears luminaries who were #12: Erik Kramer, Josh McCown, Caleb Hanie.

Mitch Trubisky will be starting as my quarterback this week.
That says it all.
Dipping into the sound recording comedy aisle, I'll take
Mitch Hedberg - The Pipe
I am not the biggest Mitch Hedberg fan, nor a real fan of stand-up, but he seemed like a really cool Mitch, so I'm game.
For those unsatisfied with a mere comedy selection, I give you without further hesitation

Disgusting is what it is. The irresponsibility of the dolphins is mind blowing. The ramifications from this must be swift and severe. He never should’ve been out today. Ever.

It's a rainy and windy day here. Tuesday I had to unexpectedly send my cat, Cole, up to the other side of the rainbow. 
It was very sad and hard, but I am grateful for the years I had with him. It is painful losing him, but that is a part of loving him so much. The love and joy he brought me is/was worth all the tears that fall now. RIP Colio 
Love you forever.

Sorry, simey. At the very least, Cole had a loving owner and advocate for him while alive. You the best.
