If I hadn’t been on a four year run of irrelevance I would probably like this league better. And it’s nice to be the inaugural champ of something that will probably go for evah and evah.
As it is, I prefer He Hate Me slightly because (a) it’s been around longer, and (b) I own that shit.
Andrew Hawkins over Ryan Mathews and Trent Richardson this week. 11 catches, 117 yards and a TD sons.
Fucking fantasy football. I lose Adrian Peterson and likely Brandon Marshall this week, and I have to rely on three fucking players on the Washington professional football team. That’s not a good combination.
ETA: After reading that sentence about starting three Washington players, I threw up in my mouth a bit. I’m now only relying on two, putting in Kelvin Benjamin over Pierre Garcon.
Beef’s Cleveland homerism *should *be the death of him, but apparently not this week because of the horseshoes up his ass (see Hamlet’s post).
Meanwhile, Yahoo is now quoting some TB radio guy who “feels” like Doug Martin is “unlikely” to play. I guess I have to pull him. Jonathan Stewart, this is your time to shine.
My homerism has landed me Josh Gordon and Jordan Cameron on the cheap. I’m not sure it has even been a net negative for me in this league.
I have Bobby Rainey on my team but I don’t even think I can start him. My roster is just too deep and awesome.
Oh and you can have Rainey as part of a Matt Ryan deal
And there goes RGIII with an injury in the first fucking quarter.
sigh
I’ll put up 170 points so you don’t have to worry about the what ifs.
Who would’ve thought the Cleveland defense would be the big scorer on my team? On the bench obviously.
Well Drew Brees isn’t on my bench and their defense is fucking up any chance I have of winning. DeSean Jackson’s injury and Cleveland’s offense aren’t helping either.
Martin is out.
Beef putting the fantasy in fantasy football.
It won’t help this week, but I’m happy about that Pierce trade now. Moreno looks like he’s out for a while. Pierce showed he’s the #1 in Baltimore.
Hamlet is actually projected at a 2 point win currently.
Currently projected to have the highest score for the second straight week, and injury/suspension problems seem to be piling up for the other contending teams. This season’s off to a good start.
By the way: Sammy Watkins, 8/117/1. Brandin Cooks, 3/17/0. That’s more like it.
ETA: Granted, Cooks had 2 carries for 21 yards as well. Also had a productive carry last week. If he becomes a regular part of the Saints running game that’s going to annoy me.
You are fucking kidding me. Now Jamaal Charles goes out early with an injury.
Fucking fuckity fuck fuck fuck.
Ouch. Rough week for you. You do have Kirk Cousins, who’s looked good. No handcuff for Charles, though. (**RetroVertigo **might have a very valuable short term asset with Knile Davis.)
Fantastic team effort by the Zzzzzzz this week. Everyone in the starting lineup has put up double digit points, with only Crabtree left to play. This is why I keep going on about having a “deep” roster.
I have a deep roster. Decker, Asiata, and Smith Sr. are on my bench scoring in the double digits. But you can’t fucking change who you started after they go down in the first quarter, so depth does you no fucking good once the game starts.
Not that I’m bitter or anything.
I’m going to end up with 150+ after McCoy plays, if it makes you feel any better. I mean, better than if I scored 95 points and you’d have obviously beat me without the injuries.
