My team sucks!!! I scored a whopping 37 points this week...embarrassing!

I invoiced everyone for the league fee (minus Luke and hak who have already paid). There should be a PayPal email in everybody's inbox for the email address that you have linked with your Yahoo account. (If you don't know which email addy this is, click on "Managers" under the "League" tab on the fantasy league site.)

Seems like this year, most nfl teams are up and down from week to week. Not many really finding a stride. I thought the Panthers (my home club) had stuff together but they got smashed by....TAMPA! Tampa f'n Bay!

Atlanta has been looking good. Matt Ryan looks like the real deal. It's always cool to see rebuilding projects going well and exceeding expectations. Just shows that with a good plan and the right mindset/attitude, success is never impossible.

Romo is out for a month. Good thing I have Aaron Rodgers as my backup QB! LOL... It was a gamble, but it looks to have paid off! ;)

I just wish I had some WR's that were consistant. When Chambers got hurt, I've been dying on the WR game... and then niether of my RB's scored either this week. Grrrrrrrrr

I'd offer you a trade, but I only have 1 solid RB, and my other 2 guys are iffy from week to week. :( -- I had Marion Barber on my team last year, and he was good for 1 or 2 TD's a week every week.

Sorry man, the trade really does not improve my starting lineup at the end of the year. That is what I am looking towards. I admit, Jackson is having a great year but I feel that Andre has a bit more upside. (More proven track record).

On behalf of our fans I would like to issue a public apology for dropping the ball on this week's lineup. I was out of town this weekend and I honestly thought I had set my lineup on Thursday. We regret this error!!!

Sincerely,
Merkins Team Management

Apology accepted! Don't let it happen again! :)

Kurt, sorry for destroying your team on your birthday weekend. :) At least my team is finally starting to get it into gear. I even had Larry Johnson starting because I thought his suspension was only gonna last a week.

Since I am in last place, and have been since week 1, please give me this opportunity to toot my managerial horn this week ... ;)

Sunday morning I moved Greg Jennings to the bench in favor of Bernard Berrian ...
Replaced Kyle Orton with Kurt Warner ....

I won this week by 4 points and without these two moves I would have lost again.

Orton left injured and Jennings underperformed against Tennessee's defense.

Not much time left for me ... I gotta get in the playoffs!

I'm still stacked at Wide Receiver and looking to trade one for a top running back. I have 2 trade offers going out this week pending tonite's results.

Ha -- I think you knocked me to the bottom now -- and this was my best chance of winning in a couple of weeks... Looks like I'm going to have to stage a fairytale comeback in order to make the playoffs!

This is going to be a close one. I need a combined 15 points between Hines Ward and Chris Cooley to tie it up.
My predictions:
Hines Ward 80 yards receiving with 1 TD,
Cooley with 55 yards and a score. (crosses fingers)

Ok guys you can stop offering me 2nd and 3rd tier RB's for any of my WR's ... instead of throwing out 10 trade offers, here is what I'm looking to do.

If anyone is looking to deal any of the following RB's

  • [*]Clinton Portis
    [*]Marion Barber
    [*]Frank Gore
    [*]Adrian PEterson
    [*]Matt Forte
    [*]Michael Turner
    [*]Brandon Jacobs
    [*]Brian Westbrook
    [*]Ronnie Brown
    [*]Steve Slaton
You can take any one of my WRs (Greg Jennings, Plaxico, Reggie Wayne, Berrian)

Please, no more Lendale White offers! I need a RB with touches, not shared responsibilities!

Portis is on the BYE this week so I can't do that ... even a 1:1.

beggars can't be choosers, you did not specify that you wanted a player that would actually play this week. :p
