I’ve corrected the waiver priority for **Omni** and **Dave**. Dave gets Omni’s position, since Omni won the pick I gave to Dave. (And everyone else who made a claim that week had worse priority than either of them.)

With this correction, Omni has yet to make a successful claim all season. Starting at 8, three people ahead of him (including Dave) have made a successful claim, so Omni gets spot 5. Everyone else adjusted accordingly.

I still don’t have Tom Brady; get to work on that.

Granted, might have to wait to see what happens, but…Ahem.

You might have to start a separate “Bad Predictions by RNATB” thread at this point.

I also gave Omni an A draft grade (he’s about to win his first game because his opponent forgot to start a kicker). In my defense, I did predict that Hamlet would do well (about to lose for the first time).

It’s not looking like a good week this week. 4 starters on byes and another injured. _gulp_.

Okay, sent you one too. Need to upgrade my wideouts, and I have lots of running backs to spend.

Thanks for including me!

I took the deal. I’m giving up 66% of my keepers (and I didn’t draft any keepers in this draft), so I may be screwing my chances next year, but dammit I want to win now!!

Please push this trade through if you could. I’d like to get Turner for Redman and Harvin for Gibson for this week. Sorry I was late responding.

Actually I wanted to keep this on the Week 7 lineups. Need Turner this week…

Fair enough. But, if it is OK with you, I can un-accept if Turner or Harvin get injured this week. And if VJax or Lynch fall down the stairs at home ot get arrested for  
Murder, you ca n cancel too.

Works for me. Harvin is already injured and I don’t think he’ll play more than 20 snaps this week anyway.

I wasn’t looking ahead, so I have both my QB’s on bye this week. So, Ryan Fitzpatrick, the 8th rated QB, is available for a fill in guy for next week. Make an offer.

So I put up 105+ points every single week until last week (and scored 90 last week). This week: 41, and even if I started my ideal lineup I would have started 50.

Definitely caught you at the right time.

It helps when I trade for Marshawn Lynch and he suffers a back injury before even taking a snap “for me”. :mad: Supposedly it was an aggravation of a chronic injury, which doesn’t bode well for the rest of my season.

Thank you, Ray Rice, for having a really bad week. I thought for sure he’d score 12 and I’d lose. I think of it as karma for Chris Johnson continuing to suck all year.

I love that I put up my highest score of the season after posting my two lowest scores in consecutive weeks. After having the most consistent team in the league over the first 6 weeks, I put up 20 more points this week than in the last two _combined._
