Same..been starting him every week since like week 3. He hadnt scored a TD for 6 weeks. Of course this week I pick up Jimmy Graham and start him over Pettigrew..Pettigrew with 51yds and a TD in just over a quarter :confused:

Drives me nuts. I drafted Gates in three leagues to avoid the late-season TE shuffle. So much for that.
 
Dropped Gronkowski for Celek (Playing Watson anyways, before the news that Hernandez was out and a Gates orphan), Didn't have the balls to start Woodhead over Andre Johnson (Planning on using Jacoby Ford if he can't go), Dropped the Cards D/ST for the Dolphins D/ST. I deserve to lose the Super Bowl over these moves, and absolutely HATE myself right now.

 
Might as well continue on the Mike Thomas theme....at half time:

Thomas: 16 points

Hillis, R. Jennings, Megatron: 10 points

 
My starting running back combo of C. Johnson and Hillis isn't looking so hot right now. I hope Hillis plays in the second half or I am toast.

 
Originally had NE D starting, swapped them out at the last minute for Philly D. Should have stuck with my gut.

 
Postponement gives my opponent's team - which has Vick, Forte, and a ton of nobodies - a decent chance to win.

I'd like to take a moment to discuss how badly injuries have screwed me this year. Kolb, then Vick (I had to trade him as I had no QB and nobody on WW - deep league), Orton, Finley, Andre Johnson, lost Torain when I needed him most, Bradhsaw and Roddy have nagging little injuries, Tampa Bay lost 7 starters on def for me, Santana was injured for a game or two. Good lord. That is even more than I thought.

And yes, I know nobody cares.

Also, could I get one TD from SOMEBODY this week? The WW was so bare I had to start Tebow. I don't know that I deserve to win, but my opponent deserves it even less.

 
My starting lineup for the all important Week 16...

Kitna (hurt)

Andre Johnson (had to sub in Burleson)

Colston

Webb (Who knows now with the game pushed back)

Moreno (had to sub in B. Jackson)

MJD (subbed in Jennings-Hooray!)

Zack Miller

Rice

Yuck.

 
Unreal injuries at WR this year... First Dez Bryant, then TO, then ADP missing last week kicking me to the consolation game, now AJ is out..

nothing like going from AJ/TO/Dez & Mike Williams matchup play all season to BMW,Royal,Benn as the final playoff starters! FML

Im with you.ADPMJDTOGatesDezLee EvansJosh Morgan - not a big deal in itself but when youve already lost 3 other WRs, it matters.
 
Figured it completely wrong this week. My bench includes Cutler, Austin, Bowe and SGreene (played Ben, CJ2K, VJax Bradshaw and Blount). My BENCH would be the league's high score this week. I hope my active players show up for the late games...

 
The Patriots score 34 points against Buffalo, but Welker and Branch combined for only 8 points in a PPR league.

 
Wish I started Forte over Torrain. Left 10 pts on my bench. Now I need Nicks to stop playing well & Vick to stink it up in order to win. I'm screwed.

Aaaaannd now Benn out for the game, off on a cart! FML
 
Benched ADP for Bradshaw, went to change it and missed the deadline by seconds. Benched Mike Thomas for Lance Moore right before the 1pm tip. Playing against Aaron Rodgers and the Giants apparently suck. Meh.

 
Started Rivers with Freeman burning it up on my bench.

Edit to add:

Freeman with his 5th TD today. :excited:

Same desperation Benn play for me, as well. On a day where every TB WR gets a touchdown....
 
Wasted Freeman's best game of the year because of a combined 22 points from Wayne, Megatron and Hillis....not to mention no-shows from a couple of IDP studs (I'm looking at you TJ Ward!)

 
Chris Johnson

McFadden

Calvin Johnson

TB Defense

These STUDS earned me a whopping 7 pts in my playoff game. I know it happens, but man does it piss me off!

 
In a close battle for the title.

Opponent has Rodgers in there, and GB has him in there still up 21 in the late fourth, throwing. Just added another 4 points on that last throw going over 400 yards.

F Mike McCarthy.

 
I'll vent for a league mate - 4th year in a row he has made the final game and it will be the 4th year in a row he has lost. This year he loses to a guy that picked up Tebow, Gronkowski and John Kuhn (as a flex) due to injuries. We freeze waivers after week 13 - but if players are listed as OUT (and you can't field a full lineup) you are allowed injury replacements. Every dud he picked up scored at least 2 tds. Pathetic.

 
I was going to drop kaeding for janikowski but decided to pick up d ward in case foster didnt go. 50 yd fg's are 10 pts. I started s moss over forte. Mcfadden was invisible for the second half. Cj got hurt. Peyton manning kneels down in frontof the end zone instead of scoring a 31 yd td, and throws 2 ints. Freeman explodes for 5 tds on my bench. What looks like a great weather game to own mccoy and go against vick, maclin and akers gets rescehduled. Not my week. Up by 11 with mccoy, r white, j graham left vs. His 3 eagles for all the marbles. Not looking good.

 
Looks like I'm taking 2nd place this year. Dammit, I could have used the 1st place $$$ too. At least I'm not getting zero.
