Marauders11 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 (edited) Can this be interpreted any other way than that he is OUT for the remainder of 2004? Priest's Web Site A Message From Priest To all Fantasy Football Players: Hey, everyone! I hope your 2004 season went a little better than mine. If you had me on your team, I am sorry to have disappointed you with the news of my knee injury and not being able to finish out the season. I hope with my absence you were still able to rack up the points. Best wishes to all of you and much success!

Hitman Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 (edited) Dear Priest, "I'm sorry I put the weight of my fantasy playoff hopes on your shoulders. You shouldn't feel too bad. I should have traded for Fragile to help you out much earlier. Fragile can't carry the load now like you used to, and now I need a miracle this week to make the playoffs. How about you just send me a $50.00 check & we'll call it even." Your pal, Hitman Edited December 2, 2004 by Hitman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marauders11 Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 This has to be a bogus site.... 587041[/snapback] Browse through the whole site- it IS Priest's own Web Site- nothing bogus about it as far as I can tell. If someone had a Web Site with Holmes' images all over it and were answering questions from fans as if they were Priest- and even posting pics of his dad in Iraq, etc. don't you think that there would be some serious efforts be Priest, his agent etc. to shut it down. It's real dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatman Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 It very well could be the official site. www.priestholmes.com, the most obvious URL, makes it very clear that it is NOT the official Holmes webstie, nor is it endorsed by him. Interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackass Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Yeah, that does look legit. Not really a surprise that they're shutting him down. The chiefs are 3-8 after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeohiostate Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Hmmmmmmmm..........and i just picked up LJ in two leagues, it's only a matter of time before he gets the rock...FULLTIME!! Poor Priest owners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.D.Morrison Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Well...I've forecasted that he hangs em' up after this year...and this just might be the smoking gun.... That is why I went out and grabbed L Johnson and Blaylock earlier this year......L Johnson is the ultimate keeper....Blaylock is only under a 1 year contract and will most likely be let go or moved to Backup...clearing the way for L J....don't forget he was highly touted !! If he does move to another team, he will surely be a #1.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeegiebo Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Precisely why I passed on him with the #2 pick in my dynasty league. If only the rest of my drafting had been so wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolv Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Why wouldn't Priest have his own website? Owens sports his website url on his hat Just cuz they are athletes doesn't mean they have no time for the pc. Just another reason to avoid Holmes - 2 outta 3 years he has let down fantasy owners down the stretch..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAMROCK Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 With the week I'm having maybe I'll get lucky tonight and I'll drop my gun and accidenitally shoot myself in the face. 587130[/snapback] [/quot since this seems to be true, that would mean i actually lost my 1st and 2nd round draft choice(s.Davis was my 2nd) . I personally don't think Larry johnson worth the bother, the Chiefs have Denver,oak,Sd during the playoffs. The question here is can i get by with these 3 backs? Playoff schedule 15-17 pittman vs NO(15) Car(16) Ariz(17) this is good J>jones vs PH(15) Wash(16 NYG (17) not good K.Jones vs Min(15) Chic(16) Ten (17) not bad at all I have Hicks just in case. what do you think?

Ursa Majoris Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 If this turns out to be fact, I will actually drop Priest for a kicker - I need a second kicker for our local playoffs because we don't allow waiver pickups after playoffs start, so you have to be prepared.

jag264 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I read the message on the site, and no where does it say that he is out for the year, you added that line ...he says he is sorry and hopes you still have racked up the points in his absence..no mention of being done for the year..you post the link yet you still get it wrong...helmethead!!!

Bill Swerski Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I read the message on the site, and no where does it say that he is out for the year, you added that line ...he says he is sorry and hopes you still have racked up the points in his absence..no mention of being done for the year 587371[/snapback] ...and not being able to finish out the season. I hope with my absence you were still able to rack up the points. His verb tense in the last sentence seems to contradict his statement in the former, so it's difficult to know what he's really saying. What is known is that he's definitely out this week and Vermeil hinted that he'd probably be out the following week as well. Sounds like the best-case scenario is that he returns in Week 15. However, given that the Chiefs are already out of contention, I wouldn't be surprised if he deactivated himself for the rest of the season.
