nhoops Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) Yeah why do you play if your going to half ass it. It's like you're throwing money away...never got it either. Edited November 11, 2005 by nhoops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redcoltfan Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Never forgotten a Line-up but I have not played a kicker or TE because I couldn't afford the roster SPOT. That was tough to do....I think I am 1-1 when a K/TE didn't play. Not bad for 10+ years of FF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantasy Jesus Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) Never. I've set my lineup from an "Internet Cafe" on a cruise ship 6000 miles away from home circling Bora Bora while on my honeymoon paying $4.95 a minute for Internet use. I've called my commish collect from a pay phone and had his wife accept the charges because I needed to set my lineup. I've called my wife while away on business and had to walk her through getting updates and then setting my lineup. It would be like leaving for work in the morning without any shoes. Then again . . . I got issues. Edited November 11, 2005 by Fantasy Jesus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubfoothead Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I borrowed a nurse's laptop when I was in the hospital last week to make sure all my line-ups were set by me or had someone set them for me. I don't recall ever having not set one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonehand Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) Nope, if anything I OVER submit them, since It seems like I change 'em about 3 times each week as new info comes in.... Edited November 11, 2005 by Bonehand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebellab Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I have never forgotten a lineup. I have made changes to a line up and not hit submit changes. Usually in a hurry to get them all done at the last minute. It usually involves and injury or a bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about to check them (I set them on Wed) and I'll do it again Sunday morning. You never know what might happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiley Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Well, I'll be the asstard and chime in that "yes" I have forgotten. I did it 2 weeks ago because I was so hungover and rushing to make it to the Rams game on time. It's the first time I've ever done it and I was completely disgusted with myself. I was a mess the whole game worrying about my missed lineups. Luckily, I was OK in 7 of the 8 leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) I'm more likely to annoy the hell outta my opponents with emails from me changing my lineups. I usually wait til about Wednesday or Thursday to submit a lineup, but after that I check them 2 or 3 times a day to make sure I haven't made any errors. Edit: I keep checking my Fusion lineup to see if I can somehow get around the bye week & crap player h*ll I'm in.

Gonkis Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Idiots in my local forget, Takeo Spikes was started 2 weeks in a row after he was declared out for the season. Without a good reason (like Twiley's), I can't imagine someone simply forgetting to do a single 10-15 minute task once a week between Tuesday and Sunday for 15-16 weeks. How do these people get to work in the morning or pay a single bill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Holliday Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I forot to put my lineup in about 8 years ago in a local league I was in. I came here to tennessee (I lived in Detroit at the time) for a funeral as the death happened on a Friday, I found out that night and immediately flew here. Well my family was in from all over the place and I got swept away the whole weekend with all the funeral arrangements and all the visiting and on Saturday night I got so drunk that by the time I woke up on Sunday I had to go straight to the funeral home and totally neglected my Football team.I never even thought about it til my flight home. That being said I can understand bad circumstances,but, I got 1 guy in 1 of my Locals though that plays every year and every year around this time he quits putting his lineup in because he is such a bad owner he is always out of the race. Since we have a weekly winner for High Points in that league you would think that he would at least submit a lineup and try to get some of his money back. but year in and year out he plays in the league and goes through this routine every year. every year I expect him to not want to be back in but every year he donates. you would think that when you pay $425 (plus 5 bucks per trade/waiver move) that you would would try to win.

cdrudge Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Nope, if anything I OVER submit them, since It seems like I change 'em about 3 times each week as new info comes in....Only 3 times? Why so few? I usually make changes 3 times. I set them initially around Wednesday we injury and stat predictions come out then possibly make adjustments based on the weekly practices and Sunday morning on last minute injuries/news/GTD if any. I'd rather set them early and possibly make a bad decision if I can't get to a computer then not set them at all and not have any team.

Gunther Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I haven't forgotten...but one of the owners did in our local league due to personal reasons and I went ahead and set it for him retroactively (unexpected death + funeral and was late calling me on Sunday after the games started).
