I left myself short at the skill positions, but that was done by design. My strategy is to not waste roster spots on guys who won't really contribute. I could've picked a guy like Bobby Engram instead of another defense, but why? Only your top 3-4 WR's will count, and I already have the best 3-4 WR's I could get. I could've picked up a couple more scrub WR's, but the difference between their contribution and the four WR's that I already have would be marginal at best. The same theory goes for RB and TE. I see that as a waste of roster space. Space that could be better used by drafting multiple defenses and kickers.

Totally untrue. That's the beauty of best ball... and WRs are so erratic, that your 5 and 6 WR one week may actually be your top 2.Maybe for RBs, that's a good strategy... but loading up on WRs in this league is what gets you the gold.

Wasted roster spots??? I think not.

Satch still has Edwards, but will be eating at least one donut to join a 1.2 and 2.3. His best scoring defense posted 11 points. the others...7, 7, 2, 2, and 0.

Yeah, I'm screwed. The bottom line is that I just didn't take enough time to get familiar with this leagues scoring system, lineup requirements, etc. You know, all the stuff you need to know in order to win. Good luck to all.

Don't feel too bad... you'll likely end up being 10-1 this week, because Edwards should put up enough points for you to at least beat my BYE/Injury ridden (half auto-drafted) team.
 
I need something like 17 from Jacobs to secure two more wins. Welker and Faulk put me close, but it will hurt to lose two wins by a few points.

 
Andy Hicks (192.1 pts)

elcohiba (182.2 pts)

David Dodds (175.1 pts)

BassNBrew (165.6 pts)

Bob Sacamano (164.7 pts)

David Baker (147.8 pts)

satch (119.5 pts)

EBF (118.8 pts)

crippler (111.9 pts)

Idiot Boxer (96.1 pts)

Switz (95.0 pts)

Some huge scores this week! Hicks doubled up Switz and Idiot Boxer. 0.9 separted C-Boy, satch, and EBF...and also me and the Sacman. Baker finishes middle of the pack with a 20 point cushion each way.

 
:shrug:

Missed out on two wins by less than a point.

I'm in deep trouble if I don't get hot fast.

 
Looking ahead....

Yeah, I've already resigned myself to not progressing to leg 3. My draft got screwed by the autodraft which ended up drafting more picks for me than it should have due to some Idiot Boxer not being able to draft when he said he would. :rolleyes: The injuries only add injury to insult - pun totally intended.

These were the auto drafted players... I honestly don't think the Commissioner should have allowed the autodraft to pick players that were out for the season.

Who was out for the season when we drafted?
Click to expand...
Hackett is out for the NFL season, Galloway potentially is, he may come back but they don't know when...Our season runs only 5 weeks, and Young, Galloway, Hackett, and Scheffler all are likely not to play during the 5 weeks this league runs.Unfortunately, the early Friday draft was the only draft time that worked for me, and barely at that. I only drafted 9 of my 22 players. Pretty hard to be successful when that happens. It's just not representative of my drafting ability at all.

Oh, come on. That was through, what, like the first 6 rounds? IB drafting that way maybe added 15-20 minutes to that portion of the draft. Take some responsibility. You knew you weren't going to be there for the whole draft. You should have gotten into the site and made sure you were familiar with how pre-drafting worked. Yes, it sucks to have to draft that way. I've done it. I know you don't get the same team you would have had drafting live. But you knew it was going to happen, and that you missed out on drafting a couple of rounds in the middle of the draft that you expected to complete live should not have been the end of the world. Having your pre-draft list in so you got your players instead of the computer (Or Clayton, not sure how that went down) picking would have likely made a difference.
 
I just don't see how you can blame IB and Clayton. As Bob says, you knew your parents were visiting, you probably should have gotten a draft list all together in there and known exactly how it worked. :yawn:

It was my QBs and TEs rounds that I missed drafting live... I really don't care about the rest. The injuries on top of the rest screwed me the most.As far as taking responsibility - I did try to set up predrafts... which somehow got skipped. And my autodraft selections simply weren't followed. I've used MFL for 5 years now, I'm very familiar with how pre-drafting works.

Whatever...

It's not a super big deal... immediately after the draft I pointed out that my team was not going to be competitive because the autodraft screwed me. Then BnB came on here to call out how crappy my team is... I was just pointing out the cause of my team being so terrible.

I know IB is your friend, but he really should have picked a different league to be in if he couldn't be there. I thought about just dropping out knowing I couldn't make the entire draft. That was my best and only option for drafting... oh well. In this type of league it doesn't matter - no one gets an easy win each week in a H2H format, so that's nice for the competitive balance. I just wish I would have been able to draft more of my team.

Blame me if you want, but I bet if you go back and check avg. draft times, I wasn't the one who held up the draft. My own team is suffering because of the manner in which I picked. Like you, Friday early was my ONLY option (I work weekends). And I wasn't about to skip the annual memorial toast for my friend for a fantasy football draft.

Suck it up. I made alternate arrangements. You did not.

 
Royal snaked me there at the end, but I can't complain about a 9-2 week. That's exactly what I needed to get back into the hunt.

It looks like I might be without Cutler for a while, but I have Roethlisberger and I seemingly dodged a bullet with Steven Jackson.

I am probably toast in this thing. I think I'll finish with a winning record, but it would take a minor miracle for my team to vault into the third spot.

Hicks is a lock. Dodds has a nice lead, but could be vulnerable. Construx with a tenuous lead over el cohiba and the ultimate underdog, me. Eddie Royal posted some nice numbers for me last night, but my RBs face some very tough matchups this week, so its an uphill climb. If I had to bet, I think the chalk holds for the week, but stranger things have happened. Like me even being in round 2. Sacamano and EBF are not statistically eliminated.

Funny, no comments from BnB last week :lmao:

Sorry...off killing #### last week. Obviously my team took a dump w/o me to look over them. I'm back and have them whipped back into shape...probably too late.
 
Exciting little 3 way battle for two spots here. Unless I've missed something, elcohiba is 11-0, I'm 9-2 and Dodds is 6-5. That puts elcohiba and I in a 2nd place tie with Dodds one game back. I'm done and elcohiba can't gain any more wins. Dodds has Vernon Davis and Edge. Total points coming into the week were Dodds, Me - 7 and elcohiba -36. So elcohiba is going to lose any tiebreaker, unless Warner and Breaston go crazy. So if Dodds gains one more spot, there is a 3 way tie and elcohiba loses out. If Dodds passes me, he and elcohiba go.

Looks like Dodds came up 3 pts light and I played the spoiler in this last week. Best of luck to CBoy, Hicks, and elcohiba in the finals.
