irish Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 ...though it would be mighty cool if you subscribed to the Huddle if you are going to grab a spreadsheet posted to their free boards. Very true and I agree but certainly not mandatory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitbull739 Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Wow, 4 days until the first draft and still no Rhino spreadsheet. I am starting to get the shakes....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Dogs Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Wow, 4 days until the first draft and still no Rhino spreadsheet. I am starting to get the shakes....... Perfection at this level takes time and dedication to deliver. Thank God though my drafts are not until the end of the month or I'd be going as well........

i_am_the_swammi Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 When was the last time anyone has seen him around here? He's in our 32 Homers league. Word on the street is that he is too busy to put it together this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no one Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 He's in our 32 Homers league. Word on the street is that he is too busy to put it together this year That's a shame ... leaves TheHuddle rankings as a fall back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pancake Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 This reminiscing got me to look back to my oldest Rhino spreadsheet. I still have the 2001 spreadsheet from Rhino. Websites that were included were: Football Guys, Tuff Sports, FF WaRoom, Fantasy Sports, Fantasy Advantage, and FF Today. Top 5 players at their respective skill postion that are still ranked in the top 5 are: Manning Randy Moss Tony Gonzales 2001 notables in the top 10 at their respective positions: QB #3 - Kurt Warner QB #6 - McNabb QB #8 - Farve RB #6 - Ricky Williams WR #3 - T.O.

Pitbull739 Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Doesn't Rhino have an apprentice or something? A little Rhino in training? This is just devastating. Rhino I still admire the hell out of you even if you do indeed take this year off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosGatosEnFuegos Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 He's in our 32 Homers league. Word on the street is that he is too busy to put it together this year Hope things are going ok for him. But next year, if time is an issue, I'm sure many Huddlers would be more than willing to pitch in some time to help out or a couple bucks to outsource the data entry.

rajncajn Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Anybody who is proficient with Excel could probably do the spreadsheet. I would imagine the hardest part would be gathering the data and formatting it to work correctly with the spreadsheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeachBum Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Anybody who is proficient with Excel could probably do the spreadsheet.

I think I'm able to use Excel, including Macros, but some of those are BEYOND comprehension! And last I heard, Rhino is well, but very, very busy.

Big Ernie McCracken Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 (edited) How about everyone doing their own homework, it makes the entire experience a lot more fulfilling Edited August 13, 2010 by Big Ernie McCracken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 How about everyone doing their own homework, it makes the entire experience a lot more fulfilling It's like getting to use a calculator on your final calculus exam. You still study, you still "do your homework," it doesn't just give you the answers, but it sure does make your test go a lot more smoothly when you have a tool like that.

I've checked Rhino's sheet out and while it's awesome work by Rhino and his generosity and selflessness are a gold standard, I organize my draft and rankings a bit differently. That said, as a superstitious and OCD fantasy football owner I completely understand anyone who is looking for Rhino's handy work. High acumen huddlers like you will survive without it rajn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scourge Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Still.... It would have been nice for Rhino to pop in, say hi, and tell us he is too busy to compile his data this year. He has done it year after year without fail. When you set the bar that high, you are held to a higher standard... Just sayin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Working on it now. Hoping to have something out this weekend. Sorry for the delay. This life thing keeps getting in the way. Currently have the following site sthat I'm pulling from: Huddle (premium) FFToday (free) Fantasy Sharks (free) Whatifsports (free) I believe there's also: Realtimesports (free) CBSSports (free) Does anyone have any links to other FREE sites with projections? Post them here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

561427 Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Maybe FFToolbox? I dont know how accurate the writers are but they seem to do a nice job with the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Maybe FFToolbox? I dont know how accurate the writers are but they seem to do a nice job with the website. Thank you sir! That site does look interesting, but I could not find any projections there, only rankings. If you can provide a link to the actual projections on FFToolbox, I'll see what I can do about including them. Again, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Does Yahoo have projections? I know they do for hoops. If they have them, I'm pretty sure they're free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
