    I finished second due to starting Griese over Collins + Owens (my only real stud) was held out of his game. I proposed that his stats next week count for this week but it didn't fly. :eek: That method is used in several leagues where someone gets screwed over in such a circumstance. All I had...

    Well, looks like I ended up winning this week as well. The Pats defense couldn't stop the Titans juggernaut! :D So it's championship week and i'm wondering who I should start. Real quick again: QB: Collins or Griese WR (2): Owens, Booker, Porter, TTaylor, Troy Brown RB (2): Hearst...

    Well, let's say we're even Brad. Between you recommending me to start Davis over Shipp and me recommending you sit Henry, I'd say we were. ;) (By the way, I -did- start Shipp :)) but didn't start Mungro. Man, I really thought I was going to lose badly but right now I'm up by 43 points - but...

    Ha! Just noticed that. I'd seen a thread earlier where someone was talking about DVDs and asking about the "addiction extras". I thought about touching it but I'm too nice for that. ;)

    A quick note for all of you guys depending on Terrell Owens this week. He's been downgraded to questionable due to his groin injury. I know I was counting on him so I'd have a shot this week. :frowning: As far as your situation Brad, I'd love to be in it. I really think it'd be time to bench...

    Brad - same here! I made the playoffs and actually won my first playoff game by tiebreaker (as noted above). This week, I get to play ol' Mack-daddy with his array of studs. QB: Vick or Bledsoe RB: Dillon & LT WR: Moulds, Mason, Stallworth TE: Fauria K: Carney DEF: NE So, I'm...

    Scott, I was the beneficiary of that fumble as well. In our FFL, the guy I was playing had Ricky, we tied, and the tie-breaker goes by total TDs that week from you team. I had 4 (Collins/Owens) and he had 3 (Williams/Smith). Talk about a nail-biter!

    Who'd have known that Stephen Davis was going to outscore Hearst? Davis would've gotten me 12 points; instead I settle for Hearst's 3. :frowning: But to be honest, that wasn't one of the changes I was trying to make. I was going to switch out Porter though, as I was going against the owner of...

    Well, I've been trying to connect to the Yahoo FFB website for about 20 minutes now and it's not responding. I was going to change up players and check status to see if they're starting. :angry: :angry:

    Scott, I've wavered on starting Stephen Davis every week for over the past month. It looks like he's gotten over the knee injury but not Spurrier's playcalling. I could've sworn that Spurrier learned something when the Skins beat the Rams, running the ball most of the time. Here's my rag-tag...

    I see my beliefs have been confirmed: From Fanball.com: Wide receiver Troy Brown admitted that he is still not 100 percent recovered from the knee injury he suffered in week three, the Boston Herald reported. ''At this point in the season I'm going to be as good as I'm going to get,'' said...

    Yeah, you and your FOUR QBS. And me with my 1.5 (Griese/Beuerlein).

    Andrew, I'd probably go with Brady. Jets @ Broncos and Titans @ Colts aren't good matchup for QBs. 3 WR: Moulds, Johnson and Toomer.

    I think ol' Chad Johnson has put better numbers since that trade; I know he's had more TDs. It's not so much the score in this league as it is turnovers and scores. And Atlanta has vaulted close to the top of the rankings in that department. Yeah, I'm not sure why he's dropping his guys. It...

    Yeah Paul, I tried to make some trades later on and found out the deadline was on the 15th of November. Of course, no one was going to accept a trade unless they go TOwens, Hearst, Davis and Booker for James Mungro. I swear, some of you guys just are too damn greedy in trades. As far as...

    The HTF Yahoo league (yeah, I know the title of the post and all ;)) that I'm in is incorporating "Keepers" this year. Basically, everyone has 4 years of contracts that they can divide however they want; keep 4 players for 1 year, 2 for 2 years, etc. I'm really hard-pressed to decide on my...

    Well guys, my team has just about finished it's downward spiral. I just picked up my 4th loss is a row; wanna know how I did it? Check it out: I started Travis Taylor; recommended by the Sporting News Fantasy Source: "Taylor is a solid start this week against a Titans defense that ranks 25th...

    Much thanks for the input. It looks like holding onto Shipp may've paid off though - Thomas Jones broke his hand tonight at his house answering the telephone. (??) Paul, I'm not too sure about parlay bets; first off all, I don't have much experience with them and second, you have to win all...

    I'm a little confused. What is to whom and where does it start and end? :D Those last few messages are really hard to follow. SIMPLE VERSION RB (pick 2): G.Hearst vs PHILLY S.Davis vs StLOUIS M.Shipp vs OAKLAND K.Barlow vs PHILLY WR (pick 2): T.Owens vs PHILLY M.Booker vs...

    Brad- I'd go with Eddie too. Seems like he's getting that late-season groove. Both matchups for your #3 WR are iffy. Miami's secondary is tight however TB's total defense is too. I'd probably go with Conway as well. As for me, I have one maybe two "can't bench guys". Here's my sad...

    Where are these leagues where these guys are still left? I play in a league that has no one available and I just lost my QB (Griese). It doesn't help matters when you have someone who picks up everyone and anyone all the time as we do in our league.

    Scott, go with: QB: Pennington RB: George WR: Dyson Flex1: Portis Flex2: Hearst Flex3: Ward I assume that you also have a TE and K position and that the flex position is a WR/RB flex. I just don't think Garner is a good start considering his iffy-ness + Denver D. I don't see...
