  1. Why are there two fantasy football threads?

    One is specifically about the SS League, the other is about all FF. Like the Around the NHL thread compared to the Sabres players only threads.

     

    My only complaint, I can't spend more time with my newborn. I took 2 1/2 weeks off subsequent to his birth and I wish it was 2 1/2 years. He's the best thing that's ever happened to me.

  2. I'm benching Alshon for Kelvin... see how that works

    I've shied away from drafting big time receivers early forever (I think Jake Reed during Randy Mosses rookie season was my last). That left quite the bad taste in my mouth as 20 years later I'm still bent. Alshon was the earliest foray at WR since and it better not bite me in the ass.

  3. The roster I would love

     

    Hodgson - Reinhart - Stewart

    Moulson - Grigorenko - Stafford

    Ennis - Girgensons - Gionta

    Foligno- Larson - Kaleta

     

    Myers - Gorges

    Zadorov - Ristolainen

    Pysyk - Meszaros

     

    Personally think Zadorov, grigs and reinhart will have to wait another year to become a mainstay though.

    Grigorenko might get called up after trade deadline.

     

    I think Hodgson has the ability and Hockey IQ to make a fantastic wingman for Reinhart, if stewart and stafford don't work out on that RW i'd put Zemgus there.

    That's a 25 win team

  4. Yeah, I'm not sure there's anyone that isn't looking forward to that atmosphere on Sunday. I think the whole place is going to burn down.

     

    I just hope they capture some of that on the TEEvee.

    There has been lots of talk about how epic and awesome Sunday is going to be, I'm worried that a time to celebrate will be ruined by Buffalo's impeccable ability to melt down.

    I don't know what the league and the Ravens knew before this morning. After this morning, this was the only correct response. It may or may not be too late, depending on what was or wasn't known earlier.

    They knew he knocked her out. That's enough for me. Outside of a woman attempting to kill you or your child, I don't know how his actions could ever be viewed as anything other than criminal.

  6. So Romo, Brady and Tate killed me today.....

    Drafted McCoy 2nd overall and its killing me already. I hate drafting that early. You almost never get value. I'd rather draft 8-12 every time because I know one of my first 2 picks will be a stud. Drafting 2nd and 20th, if you miss on the first, season over.

  7. Very happy with the win. I don't do the wet blanket/miserable thing, Fred had a great run.

    I wasn't thrilled at all with the RB (minus booby) play today. Hackett continues to not understand how to use spiller, and if my 70 year old dad is ripping them for running out of the stupid read option then you know it's a tired play. Fred is showing his age, that run in OT was awesome but almost every other play he looked a step slow.

     

    That doesn't make me want to "hate" him. He has a "pro bowler" in front of him that makes me want to puke every game. How many teams have all pros as back ups anyway? Fred is a decent back up. If booby keeps getting carries this discussion becomes moot.

  8.  

     

    Yes. If Crabtree were out I'd put Boldin in, but last I heard he's on track to play.

    I was spurned pretty bad by Anquan (can't remember if it was last year or the year before) so I am reluctant to ever play him. He was getting me 0-2 points every time I started him. I'm pretty hopeful for Evans but rookie WR rarely put up big numbers in their first years.

  9.  

     

    Good call on CK being inactive. I think he should get the full season on the bench barring a crazy string of injuries/bad play.

     

     

    Gilmore is out today. Covering Marshall/Jeffrey went from impossible to impossibler.

    Having Alshon Jeffrey in fantasy went from semi-chub to a full on 2x4.

  10. They're not going to predict everything to the t. They'll get a lot of things wrong. But they still know the game far more than any of us do. FAR more.

    I simply don't agree with this statement. Regardless of Bills predictions, the analysts barely know more than you or I and when it comes to teams like the bills, they know far less. They barely know the roster. Everyone at TBD can tell you the last 10 guys cut, in order.
