she keeps asking me why the saints are doing this to her. what makes it worse is that she keeps looking for an answer from me when all i want to do is choke somebody after watching that abortion of a game for us.what made it even harder to watch that garbage was that i had to start Emmitt again & watch him have his best game in quite a few....AGAINST MY SAINTS 
And I had to start the Arizona D because of some gaffs on the FA wire. Yes...im going to win my fantasy game, but I care about the saints winning much more. my week, like many new orleanians, is ruined. my restaurnt sales are going to suffer because of it too...happens all the time after disgusting losses. and i have to go do inventory now.

I benched Tiki for T Jones and dropped the ATL Defense for Denver Ugg.I figured Jones is the entire focal point of the Bears offense and even if they struggled against Philly he would get some garbage yards.I got cute with trying to exploit matchups by dropping ATL and Picking up DEN for this week against TAMPA.Neither paid off and both may contribute to my losing this week. To make matters worse my opponent for this week picked up ATL and started them against me.

exactly what I've had. Pretty sad that I should've kept Jeff Garcia instead. Luckily I'll only be 2-2 after this week, unless Tynes can kick 3 FGs tomorrow nite to bail me out. I'm not holding my breath....What really sucks is that Collins had around 93 yards in the 1st quarter and looked like he was on his way to a big game....he got progressively worse as the game went on and got downright brutal for the last quarter and a half....

Tonight is the story of my season. Play a guy with Culpepper gone, nothing much but Faulk and Bruce. I have Barlowe and Taylor and they are !#$%#$% useless!

TD = 615 yrd rush/rec = 1Playing the dude in 1st place.Due to byes, his 2 starting RBs this week: J. Bettis and Amos Friggin' Zeroeue.His 3rd receiver: Curtis Conway.Thought it would be a cakewalk this week.Just to rub it in, one of his IDPs is Jamie Sharper.This is why fantasy football sucks.

Why do I listen to anything you people say! Should've started Steven Jackson and Faulk. I'd at least have a chance at a win this week.

I didn't start Hollings over Faulk you ####-####! I started Hollings over Fitzgerald who I started over Jackson. Everyone thought I should start Fitz over Jackson.If you started Hollings over Faulk you shouldn't be angry at no one but yourself.

I'm sure Marvin Lewis is winning the hearts and minds of his players by playing Palmer. Team is 1-3 with a decent defense and better than average running game.CJ is being doubled all game long, but Palmer is unable to make the other team pay for it. Until he does/can CJ looks to be in for a long year. I had my hopes up because it was early in the season, but after today things aren't looking so hot.Great job Marvin. Way to sacrifice the season.:finger:

Un-#######g' believable!!!!!This league is an IDP league. I went to play practice earlier today down by almost 40 points. I just got home and checked the score. We get points for receptions so Eric Johnson actually scored more than Shockey! And all of my opponent's players are done. I'm down by 1 point with a few still playing tonight AND Ray Lewis and Monty Biesel playing tomorrow night! All I need is a coupld tackles from them!I can't believe I'm still going to win!!!! 4-0 Baby!!!EDIT:
at the censoring, I didn't use the real f word

Benching Corey Dillon for Aaron Stecker: In another league...Santana Moss, Chad Johnson, Rod Smith, Chris Brown... Especially when I went against Andre Johnson, Curtis Martin, and Emmit freakin' Smith??? Trent Green and Eric Warfield need to step it up tomorrow against Baltimore so I have a prayer of staying undefeated in my one league!

I am convinced Bill Cowher is on a personal quest to ruin my fantasy team. - Give the freaking ball to Duce inside the 10 he will be able to punch it in. Of course I started him over Dunn. it's only 3 points difference but, it could be the difference between a loss and a win. Sigh. I should have followed the last cheat sheet. - It's the Bengals pass defense. Throw the ball to Hines Ward please ! - How do the Browns hold Portis to 58 yards ? Joe Gibbs is very rusty.

Ya know what, thats another #$@%^ thing. Why can I not get jack#%$ outta Deuce, Taylor, Barlow, Green, Favre, Brown, Porter, Burress, and Steve Smith yet these @#%#&$%% get a couple of TDs outta this useless stiff? I haven't gotten that much scoring over the entire season, from all my @#% %@#^@##@ Running Backs - - - - PUT TOGETHER!%$!!!
Just to update my team's status:Week 1 - Steve Smith, Joey Gallowayweek 2 - Todd Heap, Eddie Kennison, Deuce McAllisterWeek 3 - Charlie Garner, Erron Kinneyweek 4 - Brett Favrethrow in Peter Warrick for good measure.needless to say, I'm 0-4, have used 7 of my 10 allowed waiver moves, and could possibly be facing an 0-13 season.

I hear ya..... He started Amos Zereoue and Garrison Hearst and still beat me....
Lost by .10If Favre didnt get hurt and threw for 3 more ####### yards, I win.Fred Taylor is absolutely killing me. I hate seeing 4th and 5th round picks from the ######s who I thought had the worst drafts scoring more points on a weekly basis than my 1st pick has all season.Joshua Randall

Back off, boys, 'cause I'm about to vent as much hot air as Mount St. Helens.Coming out of our league's draft, I figure I am sitting pretty with Deuce McAllister, Stephen Davis, and Curtis Martin anchoring my RB corps. I'm also able to add Lamar Gordon in the pre-season waiver frenzy thanks to timely advice from FBG.com regarding the trade to Miami.A couple of guys in my league complain about the Gordon pickup, thinking that just because their crappy fantasy football news sites aren't on the ball, I somehow cheated. I provide them with the link to blackeyedjoe.com .Still pre-week 1, I contact the nervous owner of a team whose starting RB are Bettis and Suggs (he also has DeShaun Foster on his bench). I have him convinced that (I give) Stephen Davis for (he gives) Marvin Harrison is a good trade, but he "wants to wait and see what happens in week 1."Needless to say that particular trade never comes to fruition.At some point I pick up ReShard Lee, the most promising of the remaining RBs in Dallas, who only has to beat out Eddie "2.3 yds/carry" George to gain playing time. Still waiting on that one.Fast-forward to week 3, when, due to bye weeks and injuries, I am forced to start Onterrio Smith (on my bench) and Lamar Gordon. Smith does well, but Gordon slips in the mud and adds himself to my ever-growing pile of broken RBs.For week 4, I dump Gordon. Acting on shrewd insider information from FBG.com , I stay out of the Leonard Henry acquisition frenzy and go strait for Tony Hollings, whose big play ability makes him a better pickup than Jonathan Wells.Wanting to hedge my bets, I take advantage of my depth at WR (Bruce, Coles, J. Smith, ...) to make a trade for yet another RB. I send Jimmy Smith and ReShard Lee to a fellow owner for Tyrone Wheatley and Reche Caldwell, chuckling to myself at this great trade.One quarter into the HOU-OAK game I am no longer chuckling. Wheatley lands in my pile of refuse and, in the very same game, Jonathan Wells rushes 26 times for 105 yds and a TD while my shrewd pickup Tony Hollings rushes for manages 6 carries for 22 yds.Later that same day, the owner of Bettis-Suggs-D.Foster calls to gloat about how his RB are outperforming my McAllister-S.Davis-Martin trio and how right he was not to trade Harrison for S.Davis. I reply with a profanity-laced tirade that blisters the paint from the walls of his house and hang up.Now it's Sunday Night Football and I've got Isaac Bruce against my opponent's Kevan Barlow. I want to watch the game, but the wife requires attention. Knowing that she'll be tired afterwards, I figure I can catch the second half.I tune in to see the score 24-0 in favor of St. Louis, Bruce with 85 yds receiving and Barlow with just 33 yds. This brings a smile to my face as I figure the evening is going to end up all right after all. Bruce should be good for another 50, 60 yards while S.F. is forced to abandon the running game, limiting Barlow to bupkes.In the second half, Bruce gets another 15 yds. Barlow gets another 57. I also watch Tim Rattay (on my bench in favor of Aaron Brooks) roll up 299 yds and 2 TD.I love this game.

Staley's actually doing better yardage-wise than I thought he would - if they would just quit giving his TDs over to the Bus....And the same thing goes for the Giants...hopefully they learned something from Dayne's short-yardage work this week. Leave Tiki in at the goal line!!!I need Staley to ##### about this goalline situation. I don't give a rats ### about the Steelers, so team unity be gone. Cowher should at least throw Staley a bone every once and a while for carrying the load.Re: Giants....I'm a Giants fan and Tiki owner. Coughlin putting in Dayne on the goaline is a nightmare on all fronts. The sad part about the situation is that Dayne has public alluded to the fact that he doesn't consider himself a goalline back. Baber IS the best offensive weapon on the team. He should be in the game on almost every down save those where he is getting a rest from Dayne.
