If you lose out AND Isotopes or RNATB win out AND RetroVertigo wins out, you’ll be knocked out completely. Unlikely, but I wouldn’t unpack the champagne just yet. ---

I’d put the chances of that at around .005 or so. ---

To think I’d be in the driver’s seat for the wild card if I’d just started any defense but Kansas City in Week 9. Or none at all - I lost by 3 and a half points and KC scored -4. :mad: ---

In theory, it is possible for there to be three division leaders, and a slew of 7-7 teams fighting for the #4 seed. That would require Retro to lose two games in a row, though, which given the fact that he faces the lowly Ides of Martz in the last week, isn’t too likely. The fact that I’ve scored over 10 points a week more than him doesn’t really keep me warm at night. But he has to face me this week. I guess I’ll have to grasp onto my role as potential spoiler and hope for the best. Time to load up the starting lineup with high upside guys. ---

Andy Dalton is available if anyone is looking for a potential dynasty QB. Ideally looking for RB depth, but will consider any RB/WR/TE in trade. ---

My entire team is available on the cheap except DeSean Jackson. ---

I want to make some sort of trade deal happen before the deadline, so could you please acquire more valuable players? Seriously though I’m not sure how you’re in the playoff race. Hmm… ---

Remember, I had Vincent Jackson until last week. He has a huge game every other week, and does nothing in between, so it kind of makes sense that I’m .500. ---

I just traded _for_ Tate like last week. Erm… what will you give me? ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > I just traded _for_ Tate like last week. > > Erm… what will you give me? I would consider most of my WRs to be available if you are looking for interesting plays for next year. Wayne and Garcon are both free agents next year if you are looking to speculate, though I expect one or both to be re-signed by Indy to pair with Luck. I have a lot of depth and I love Tate, especially as Foster’s owner, so if you like one of my WRs let me know. ---

Are you interested in selling low on DeSean Jackson after he’s shouting I’M A CANCER, NO ONE TOUCH ME? ---

You know what’s crazy? Rob Gronkowski is going to have a serious chance of being the top scoring receiver… even if you include WRs. He’s #3 at the start of the week and already has 2 TDs. ---

Fuck me, I started the Oakland defense against Miami instead of Miami or Atlanta, both of which are doing rather well. I started Oakland in 3 leagues too. Might cost me my win streak. Come on Gronk, put up 3 more TDs! ---

Matt Forte may be out for the year! Shit! Any thought of winning the championship is slowly falling away for me. ---

He’s #3 at the start of the week and already has 2 TDs. The game’s over and Wes Welker still has 25 points on him. I think the dream is dead. ---

If I had only started Garcon, I would have beat Hamlet’s all-time league high score of 202.60. I guess I still could if Colston + Kasay get 33 combined.
