Fantasy Football 2009: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em, Trade 'Em

[Dimmauk]

Ok here's this weeks set up:

DeAngelo Williams v. Dallas
Ronnie Brown v. San Diego
Run DMC v. Denver
Sproles v. Miami
Hightower v. Indiana


Pick 3.

I have a hard time sitting DeAngelo, but the Cowboys looked good against the Giants Rush Offense past week.

I was leaning towards:

Run DMC
Ronnie Brown
Sproles


@ WR I'm going with
Vincent Jackson
Santonio Holmes

over Housh, and lolIsaac Bruce.


I've got a waiver request in for Omarion. If that goes through Bruce will be gone.

Dallas will stack the box again, and make Clutch beat them. They tried that with Eli and the secondary got burned. Are Mushin and Smith going to do the same? Smith maybe, Mushin probably not, which means possible double teams for Smith, and man on Mushin.

chansi stuckey is the man

In years of Fantasy Football, and multiple leagues, this is the worst trade offer I've ever seen in my life.

Lmao! Holy shit. That's awful. I mean.. Benson's been a nice surprise and Brady's been eh if you count both weeks, but rofl. Bravo.

[Tyr]

I believe in Benson, but not that much. I think he was hoping you were so low on Brady after the Jets game...

I did one of two possible trade options tonight:

I got: Roddy White
I gave: Donald Driver + Cedric Benson

my other option was to get Santonio Holmes for the same offer. Thoughts, anyone?

[Akiyama]

Already told you my thoughts before you vamoosed without talking to me about my trade options. THANKS BY THE WAY.

Right before this trade the same guy threw a shit fit all over our message boards because I wouldn't give him -BOTH- Steve Smith's for R.Brown. (Yes, I have NYG and CAR S.Smiths, lol)

He "warned," everyone that I was overvaluing my players.

He kept going on and on about how Brown was rated "significantly," higher than CAR's S.Smith. I asked where he saw him so far ahead of Smith and he ducked and dodged that one. This was after I listed 3 sites that had Smith rated higher than Brown and 1 that had Brown only 3 slots above him.

Fucking people man.

[Brill Weave]

Some people are just fucking stupid. I love the ones that think if they bitch loudly enough they are going to get you to accept their lopsided trade offers. I had a guy last year screaming at me because I wouldn't trade him Adrian Peterson for Willie Parker. His reasoning was the Parker was a proven commodity and Peterson was a rookie who wasn't going to keep up the pace he was. I literally posted a message in response of me laughing at him. The guy went berserk. He subsequently got removed from the league because he then did the same thing to two other people and steadily got more and more profane. He even began threatening people.

[Plow]

Somebody tried really hard to get Boldin off me in idp lol, I almost bit at one of the offers, or sent a counter.

Yay for patience.

[Brill Weave]

Someone sent me a garbage trade trying to pry Boldin away from me. I rejected it without even looking at it. I love how most people assume that just because you're new to the league they think you're new to fantasy football. Take your garbage trade and save it for someone who doesn't know shit from caviar.

I have a new FFL meme

I hope he accepts!

[Gadritan]

Oh lawd. lol.

[Gadritan]

I'm going to die laughing if anything happens to Brown. I picked up R.Williams today for a decent bench RB and to cock block Mr. Lowball if Brown goes down.

Sucks that I really like Brown though and can't truly wish any harm to come to him. But if it does...oh the lols to follow.

[Tetrarien]

Moss and Jennings absolutely killed me this past week with their lack of production. Then Dallas Clark almost single-handedly wins me the matchup, but falls 3 points short.

RB situation is still iffy, maybe even more so now that Mike Bell is injured too. So now I'm hoping that Westbrook's injury nags him for a while so that I can roll with McCoy. Otherwise I'm gonna have to go with Pierre Thomas and hope his prior injury doesn't hamper him too much, or go with Laurence Maroney and hope that one of his maybe 7 carries goes for some major yardage.

Ouch. It's always so much worse when they get your hopes up just to fall short by a few points like that.

[Gadritan]

I'm half tempted to start Vick in 20man this week just to see wtf happens.

[Tetrarien]

Ouch. It's always so much worse when they get your hopes up just to fall short by a few points like that.

No kidding. Before the game started I was joking around that Clark would do something like that. Then an 80yd touchdown on the 1st play later, and I actually started thinking I had a chance.

If Yeremiah Bell (other team had him) hadn't been in on 2-3 of the tackles on Clark or if Gibril Wilson had actually held on to that interception, I would have won. Gotta admit, it was pretty fun raging over the late Indy TDs, cursing out Donald Brown for running one in and Manning for connecting to a non-Clark receiver.

[Gadritan]

Who's Git Awf Me in 20man and why are they bragging about having the most points when they're 1-1 and only won the last game by 2pts? lol.

[Gadritan]

Ugh. And fuck me I have to play Aki in week4 ._.

I was hoping you'd lose some people to injuries before we faced off.
