Ministry of Pain

The players are irrelevant. I was going to do one of those "Can we all agree to stop doing this" but that wouldn't be nearly as much fun...

10. Did Miles Austin suit up?

9. Is Flacco even looking in Torrey Smith's direction?

8. It will be great if DeAngelo Williams ever lands on a team that can utilize his skills.

7. I should have traded Bush when I had the chance.

6. I smell a long TD to Jordy Nelson on the horizon.

5. (After the RB2 gets their 1st touch of the game) Is Arian Foster hurt, why is anyone else touching the ball?

4. Aaron Rodgers is overrated.

3. Should we just cut Antonio Brown?

2. I knew I should have started Golden Tate.

And the number 1 post in the Sunday Game threads...

1. The fantasy Gods must hate me this season.

I would like to add that anyone that can sit and post play by play every so often with some on the spot analysis like when a RB loses yards but was met in the backfield, runs for 15 yards but was untouched until he had 10, that kind of stuff is so valuable even though it doesn't matter in the final box score. Let's make these game threads something we truly want to flip thru to find out what happened. I don't mind when someone is asking innocent questions about the game but crying and moaning as an FF owner of whoever the player, oh please give us a break.

How'd this miss the cut?

"GREG LITTLE HAS BUTTERFINGERS !11!!" (no need to keep harping on the obvious).

:shrug:

Why does Ray Rice only have (insert a small number) carries?

Jay Cutler sucks.

Where is Eric Decker?

Why is Danny Woodhead getting touches?

 
McCoy not getting carries.

Is someone on my team who is not hurt and I am too stupid to check - is he hurt?

Kolb hates Fitz.

David Wilson pining.

 
Man, Chris Johnson looks terrible today.
Even the folks watching will post this. I saw him with a chance against Houston to break it outside and he cut it inside. Then Mayock this past week pointed out a wide open hole that he didn't rip thru for possibly a long TD.You could insert any name though and I agree with you.
 
I'll admit I joke around in the game threads and dont stay strictly to posting plays, its part of the fun of watching games with the SP. One thing I think would make the game threads more valuable after Sun/Mon is if people who actually watched the game (not redzone channel) would do a game recap, like fbg does, with thoughts on what they saw that week for particular players. We'd then have fbg and SP recap perspectives to enjoy.

Now this s a good idea.
 
(Team A) didn't win that game, (team B) lost it.

(This is basically said every time an NFC East team loses.)

 
i don't need play by plays. i can get them anywhere. the only reason i visit the game threads are for the BSing commentary on significant plays/events. i like that. that is the thing that i can't find just anywhere.

when wilson throws his 3rd pick, im going to visit that game thread to read all the people complaining about it.

play by plays are pretty useless. anything i am intrested in is posted immediatley on any game tracker page. by the time they are posted here, i already know about them.

Keep us updated
:lmao:

I did a search for you over the last month, lot of game threads...Here is just one. You actually post you aren't watching the game so I have to give you props for being honest.

:lmao:
To be clear, I was saying those are some of the lowest content posts in the threads, and I wasn't directing that at you MOP
It's cool, we're just having fun. The folks that typically do it are not here yet. Their bus doesn't arrive until about 1:15-1:30, 10 minutes into the 1st Q, those folks who come straggling in late from the parking lot. About that time their heads explode if they don't have 100 yds and a TD in hand already. They wanna ask a lot of questions. What good does it really do in that particular moment? It's not like you can bench the guy until next week. But that's why I want to encourage locals who are glued to their team to post as much s they can in these game threads and let us know what is happening. If you search for the Mia-Cin game last week you'll get a flavor for what I think we should be striving for. We had a really good time last week, lot of Phins fans, not so many Bengals fans. I'll be looking for a St Louis Rams fan today to help with the color commentary.

Really? The Game trackers tell you how awful the OLines are blocking or that a RB had a DT dragging him down almost the same time he took a handoff? Game trackers show you that the QB had 2 guys closing fast when he throws the ball short or worse, an interception? I disagree my friend on getting the same at the game tracker but I do agree that watching the :tfp: can be fun.
 
Coach X is an idiot and should be fired for not using my fantasy player more!

And my personal favorite...

Where's Waldo Player X?

"That looked like his Penella Minicus was twisted. I did that during a rec league game once. That's a 4-6 week injury."

well, i never wanted to know that kind of stuff mid game. there is just too much going on to worry about that. i learn that info mid week, which is where the fbg sub comes in. im just saying not everyone shares the same opinion as OP
 
I have seen you reference my post about Bush about 4 times now in various threads. Man, that one really irked you eh?
