  1. I completely agree. One thing about FF is that if you are going to win championships you have to step out and not be too conservative. Sure he could be a bust, but it won't kill your chances if you get him cheap. On the other hand, he could put up #1 WR numbers, as Wayne is not getting any younger. I like the upside that is why I have him. Also, Blair, Garcon and others are not as good a Collie IMO, so I don't expect the same upside if Collie goes down again.
  2. I also had him last year. I'm in an auction league and we draft two weeks ago, top WR went for $30 to $40. I picked up Collie for $15. Not super cheap but he is my #3WR. I remember that last hit that ended his season, and I don't know any NFL player that would have walked away from that impact. I think that he was very unlucky and hopefully he won't see another one like that ever. But he is my risk pick, and the upside is huge if he can repeat what he did last year even for 10 games. I just hope he last to my playoffs.
  3. I started out playing in a local league before the internet days and it was a blast. I have an online league now in our 11th year with many owners there for most of that time. None of us knew each other but have become good friends, sometimes a few meet up when traveling. One year about 1/2 of us met in Vegas. But the drafts are not like the "old days"... but this year a few of us last minute setup a Google+ hangout and could see and talk to each other during the draft! It rocked and we will be doing it every year. So I have hope that one day the drafts we be once again something more than looking at a computer screen for 3 hours.
  4. That is good to know, I'm not worrying about it too much then, but could the NFL suspend him also? I have a spot on my roster I could fill with his backup if needed.
  5. According to ESPN: "AUSTIN, Texas -- Cincinnati Bengals running back Cedric Benson has been sentenced to 20 days in jail after reaching a deal to settle two misdemeanor assault cases in Texas. Benson was in court in Austin, Texas, on Monday and the deal was struck after a jury was picked. He said he will surrender to authorities on Oct. 17, which is the Monday of Cincinnati's bye week."... That looks like 2 games he will be out at least. I have Benson and want to handcuff his backup, problem is, who is the right guy? It does not look like there is a clear #2 right now, who would you pickup?
  6. I think this is a great idea but am not sure how it could be implemented. Player A leaves because of injury for the rest of the game (this can be tracked) you get his points. If he leaves and then comes back in, then he is not considered injured. Now the part that would be tricky is how to handle the backup. I assume he could be on any team, just needs to be the same position and on your roster. You could rank your players in order that you want them to be substituted, that would be no problem. But how do you score them? You can't use their total points, since they are only playing part of a game (fantasy-wise). You would need to look at the time of the injury and give the sub player credit for the stats after that point, but I don't think stats give that level of detail... Anyway, I like the idea.
  7. Nothing like needing big games from Vick and Foster to win this week...
  8. Two other owners wanted the 9er's but didn't want to use the waiver wire pick for them. I grabbed them with my pick and started them over the Steelers, which have suck so far. I will still probably lose, but man, got to love it! I'm a 9ers fan to boot, so it is really sweet. The Ram suck, but the 9ers are not the same team this year. I think they have a very good shot at making the playoffs.
  9. Olsen and Jennings less than 23 points. I had a 60 point lead until Williams when off last night and got my opponent 37 points. I really want the cash for a new HD TV, so we are talking about life/death here...
  10. Rich Gannon I don't see him on the list and he usually does regional games, but I'm really impressed with him, even though he was a Raider. I hope he makes it to a larger stage down the road.
  11. I started him over R. Brown, I know it goes against all logic, but I went with my gut. My opponent had Romo/TO and I also had Witten going. We ended the night at 32 to 35, with him ahead. I said I would be happy if I could just stay with him. If the TO TD did not happen, I would have been in even better shape, but I can't complain and I only wish Choice was going to be a starter next year as we have keepers in our league.

    I don't see why LT would not be the best back next year, even if he drops some, which is most likely, there still would be a gap between him and the rest of the league. I think a lot of people just can't believe what he did this year and figure he has to fall back into the pack, but why? Sure there is a chance that SJax, LJ or even Gore could have a better year, but if I were to put money on it right now, it would be on LT hands down. I think it is just WAG to put anyone over LT right now.
  13. Both of our playoff games will be decided tonight. Team A has a 7 point lead on Team B A - Has Chad Johnson B - Has Housh Team C has a 9 point lead on Team D C - Has Addi D - Has Palmer and Graham I'm Team D, and was sweating it big time until LT pull out another great game. I don't have a win yet, but should have a good chance unless Addi goes off like he did a few weeks ago. The other game is much more of a question. Even our loser bracket has a close game that will be decided tonight. This is the coolest week 15 I can ever remember. Go Cinncy!!!!
  14. With DJax going down, this could save me this week . I have Henderson and will start both Colston and him this week since my #3 WRs suck anyway. Should be covered.

    8:00 game

    +1 Yup, I got it a few years back so I could watch UofA Wildcats basketball on AZFoxSports and see just about every game in the season after many years of only catching a few games. I'm not at home right now and can't watch the football game because there is just cable here
