also in another league i had -1 combined from stafford mcfadden charles bryce brown cruz and denario alexander

Ugh. ESPN did not count Gore's TD in last night's points, so that scoring adjustment results in a 0.7 loss for me in my money league...

Yahoo counted it, but it was basically rearranging deck chairs on the titanic anyway.

Gained 60 points on the leader this week, putting me less than 30 away from first. Think it's like 27.8 or 28.7 with both of our rosters finished for the week. More importantly, I'm over 100 pts over the 3rd place team. Poor guy had a 44 point week with his best player putting up 9.2 pts on the week.

With last night's 161 pt week, I should also pick up the $50 bonus for highest week of the season, beating out the first place team's mark of 159 pts that was set in week 10. First place is still a possibility based on team's benching players for the playoffs (dude in first is carrying a pro bowl roster at this point in the season), but if I have second place locked up, I'm more than happy with the $200 consolation prize.

Thank you CJ2K for the victory last night. I'm Finals bound!

Fantasy final this weekend....please please please let RGIII be healthy. I got really lucky to win by four points last weekend considering Eli Manning only had 4 fantasy points

[the wicked child]

Apparently I have a 3rd place game to play for. No money at stake, so I'm going to set it and forget it.

[eddysnake]

somehow made it into finals, does this look right for this week? should I look for anyone?

[Letang Is The Truth]

the yahoo recaps make me want to rage. what a waste

[shafnutz05]

Hey eddy....if there is an upgrade over Mike Williams available, I would grab him.

Hartline, Bess, S. Moss?

[TheHammer24]

I have my typical RB dilemma in the finals. Pick 3:

Richardson @ Denver (coming off terrible week of 11 carries for 22 yards but 2 TDs)
Martin v. St. Louis (Horrible week as well, but the Bucs were so far behind)
Ridley @ Jax (same as Martin. Fumbled, which is bad when you're on the Pats. Woodhead played most of the game)
Green-Eliss @ Pit (Great string of games over 100 yards with TDs mixed in. Going against Pittsburgh team that has played well this year, but gave up yards to Demarco Murray like it was their job)
Leshoure vs. Atlanta (Weak, but great game last week and started getting most of the carries again)

WR Pick 2.

Josh Gordon v. Denver
Nicks vs. Baltimore
Torrey Smith @ NYG
Garcon @ Philly.

Maybe Hartline....

[eddysnake]

I feel like Ballard could have a big game too, but do I put him in over Forte?

Garcon @ Philly.

Doug Martin, Green-Ellis, Leshoure. Atlanta is awful against the run generally.

If RGIII plays, Garcon and Nicks. If RGIII does not play, Nicks and Smith.

[TheHammer24]

Wow. No Richardson? He's the only player on the Browns offense--if they score, he'll have the ball. I don't think I can justify benching him. I am also lukewarm on Leshoure; he just doesn't get the ball enough. I was more interested in the Green-Ellis/Ridley question, but now you have me thinking.

I think you're spot on at WR.

[shafnutz05]

Wow, I totally missed Ridley. Ridley is a must-start, over Green-Ellis I would say

[shafnutz05]

You could certainly justify starting Ridley and Richardson over Green-Ellis and Leshoure....that's what I would do.

Martin, Ridley, and Richardson

[TheHammer24]

Also, San Fran or Seattle at DST? They're playing each other in Seattle.

My opponent dropped SF to pick up Tennessee vs NYJ for his semi-final match. It got him in the championship (SF would not have), but I was able to block him picking them back up. He's stuck between Tenn or Indy, Tampa, KC, Oakland from the WW. Any sense in picking any of them up to further limit his options?

[Idoit40fans]

Unless your league was incompetent in the draft, richardson is a must start

[TheHammer24]

Martin, Ridley, and Richardson

Cool. That's what I got now . I wish I could start 5 RBs and 0 WRs.

[TheHammer24]

I feel like Ballard could have a big game too, but do I put him in over Forte?

No way.

[IanMoran]

Had most loaded team I'll probably ever have.. Lost in my keeper league 1st round for the 3rd straight year..

Team even went off this week

Also lost during MNF by 1 after the fumbled snap on last play (he had Titans D)

@%@#@#@%@#@%@#% fantasy football

[Pavel Bure]

One Armed Gronk got a combined 17.70 points from their RBs, their lowest combined scoring output from the RB position this season.

This killed me. That's out of 3 RBs.

[shafnutz05]

Lesean McCoy is ACTIVE this week

[DudeMan2766]

It's been killing me not using Amendola lately and each time has come back to bite me. But how do I sit Julio Jones, Andre Johnson, or Cobb?
