I got my draft today, going for a 3-peat. I have the #3pick. My league just fiddled w/ the scoring, QBs now get 6pts for a passing TD, instead of 4.

Using the updated scoring the top QB last year, Drew Brees, scored 588pts and the top RB, Ray Rice, scored 354. I am throwing out conventional wisdom of putting a premium on RBs, and going with a straight "who's putting the most points on the board" approach. Aaron Rodgers is going to be my first pick. He only threw 6 INTs last year, and it is huge that a QB doesn't cost you points.

My league also puts a premium on TE receiving yardage, a hold over from when it was first started. They also just added a Flex spot to the starting lineup. If Graham and Gronk are there when I pick in Rnds 2&3, I am grabbing them.

That will give me 2 spots where I should have top 3 scorers, and I should have far an away the top Flex player, as most others will be starting their 3rd string RB or 4th string WR. Plus, taking the other TE will hurt every other team in the league.

Last year I pieced together the RB position. My rushing attack was the last in the league, but my WRs were great and as bad as T-Bo is on the field, he was a real good fantasy QB.

I am more worried about being left out on a top 5 WR, but I have done a good job with waivers, picking up Britt then Cruz early in their breakout seasons.

I'm on the bandwagon for Titus Young, on Detroit, in rnds 5-7. I am hoping that a RB coming of injury drops down to me in Rnd 4.

With Santana Moss appearing to be losing a step, I look for Pierre Garcon to have a big PPR year, if RG3 turns out to be mediocre or better. I would draft Roy Helu off the same team, but Shanahan clusterfucks the RB position as much as Belichek.

Looking at what Cincy did the past few years w/ Ced Benson, I think Ben Jarvis Green-Ellis should put out some decent production this year.

I think Cruz will be drafted too early, as will Cam Newton. Teams will had 6months to break down a full season worth of tape on them.

I won't be reaching for the Jets Defense/Special Teams as I have the past 2 years. If I jump on a defense, it will be the 49ers. They play in a shit division, so Points Against should be low, and Ted Ginn is always a threat to score, returning kicks and punts.

I'm just typing all this out, so I can work it through my head, then read it to see if it holds up. Hope I don't chicken out of going QB/TE/TE.

I am going to have to get a couple of teams myself soon, it seems like time is flying towards the start of the season

reminded me of the league on fx.great show


what better way to get the inside track then by mingling with the players?


watching porn while working out makes it go by faster.


theres no such thing as a good housewife,but you can get one thats good at whore type things.

sorry to hijack your thead,just happy season 4 starts this fall.

I had to settle for Brees at the #3 pick, was REALLY tempted to take Foster, but stuck to the plan. Both Gronk and Graham were gone by the time I picked in the second round. Wound up going QB/WR/WR/TE to start off.

Surprised the QBs and TEs went so early, considering as of last year, in a PPR league, some guys were still going RB/RB to start their drafts.

Here's how the team looks. Not so happy with it, but half the guys will be gone through waiver transactions, so I'm not worried.

QB- Drew Brees
Tim Tebow (my good luck charm)

RB- Trent Richardson
Ben Tate (come on Foster injury)
Toby Gerhart (is AP ready to play?)

WR- Greg Jennings
AJ Green
Reggie Wayne
Jerome Simpson
Danny Amendola

TE- Vernon Davis
Fred Davis

K- Alex Henery
Josh Scobee

D/ST- Giants
Bills

Starting Line Up

1-QB
2-RB
2-WR
1-TE
1-FLEX (RB/WR/TE)
1-K
1-D/ST


If Richardson produces enough to justify his being drafted #3 overall by the Browns, I should be good. You can't bank on health, but the only real reach I went for was Amendola, and if my #3 WR can catch about 90 passes, as he did 2 years ago, I'm really well off. Until he proves as much, Fred Davis will probably be my flex.

Still feeling queasy making Jennings my # 2 pick, but Cruz isn't a lock, and Nicks is brittle. Rodgers always spreads the ball around, but Jennings seems to be the "move the chains" guy.

Tomorrow I'll post the lineup that won me the title last year, and you will see I am smarter than the average bear. Everyone was saying it was the worst championship line up ever, all I said is, "I wasn't up against the other championship teams. I was up against you guys."

Is this the CFL thread?

I know you have all been wondering, "How has Jerules been doing with Fantasy Football?" so I'll give you an update.

This is what my current roster looks like, after making a couple minor changes.

QB
Brees
Ponder

RB
T-Rich
Tate
Daniel Thomas

WR
AJ Green
Reggie Wayne
Greg Jennings
Danny Amendola
Randall Cobb

TE
Vernon Davis
Fred Davis

K
Justin Tucker
Henery

D/ST
Giants
Bills

Really, not that much change, which is surprising for me. Tucker is my starting K now.

Currently, I have 3 of the top 8WR, and the #3TE, in my leagues scoring system. That alone will carry me to the playoffs.

With real refs playing this week, the mugging of receivers should stop and precision offenses start to click. If that turns out and Jennings puts up some points, I'm going to try and spin a WR off for another RB. Brees is playing outdoors, so I'm not going to expect great things just yet. Next week in the dome, he should put some abuse on San Diego though.

Anyway, I am 2-1, lost Week 1. Second place in my division, dude in first I beat 3 times last year. 3rd in total points, got the $5 payout for highest point total of the week last week. If I can dump a WR for an every week starter at RB 2, I'm going to be in cruise control until the week after my playoff bye.

_________________________________________________________________

As far as real football goes, how about that damn Arizona? If they had anyone on offense besides Larry Fitz, they would be scary.

Texans are just looking like a straight up scary team. I'm starting Ben Tate, just on the crap shoot that the Texans are in Garbage time half way through the 3rd QTR each week, and he gets most of the touches from there.

Actually, I was wondering how much meth it took for you to misspell Jerkules.

Looks like the munchkin alcoholic is gonna get loud this afternoon.

Nah Meat, that is a good thing. With his lap dog in hiding, JB has taken the up the grammar/spelling cop role. It was nice of him to pick up the slack.

I have a “lapdog?” This is news to me. And I’m sure to a few others as well.



There’s a difference between misspelling “potatoe” and misspelling your own user name.



Jerky’s night ain’t complete without The Meat in his seat. . .

Ahahah. How fast was that response You've been holding on to that pic for hours, Mopey, just waiting to post it.

Shit, it's what, five years now I've been pissing you all off?

Wait. I'll tell you how long that was. Two minutes:

Stupid.

I'll have to admit cqd; cool...

Why stop now?

Yeah, yer lapdog. He sure as hell don't have any bite, so it can't be an attack dog. And it aint a surprise to anyone. Your pattern of giving yourself away with you projecting is pretty easy to read.



You describe what happened very well, but got the assigned roles wrong. After YOUR marionette got tangled in his strings, YOU jumped in to try and save his fail. So sad and predictable.

I hope if EY shows back up he can let you know a couple of disorders that is a sign of. Maybe then you can maybe stop trying to drink it away and get help. Unless of course you want Coco's spot of Board Loon, in addition to the grammar cop spot.

Did cqd edit all them pics, or did a mod wake up?

First of all, how are you going to spell "marionette" when you can't spell your own damn name? The Meat in the seat works wonders, I suppose, if that's your thing.

Here's a more important thing, board-wise. You know what your BF's post looked like? It looked like this:




Yep. That looks just like Smartt's Swan Song.



Carry on.

fucking munchkin.

Ha ha ha ha. No comeback? Guess that is another nail I hit on the head.

It really is sad that you fed your lap dog to a wolf. That poor bastard didn't need to take that kind of abuse, but he followed his orders and thought he was helping a "friend". What kind of "friend" has his ill equipped buddy fight his battles for him? Sounds much more like a manipulative pussy than a friend.

Of course, that is probably how JB lasted this long in life. More than likely, manipulating friends to fight his battles is how JB, his mouth, and the lunatic shit comes out of his mouth made it through high school and many, MANY drunken nights at parties and bars. Sad. Even sadder that poor bastards like cqd can't see through it. Of course I'm sure JB grooms his victims well.

Yeah, that's all you can do isn't it?




You mean like this?










BTW: It's Okay to quote yourself, when needed. You just can't nominate yourself for QOTD

At least you aren't insulting us with transparent denials. Step up yer game kid. Adapt or die.

EDIT: Barry, you miss an Extreme Rising show? If you saw them all, I'll PM you a list of the shoot interviews I have.

Says the crew that replays Smartt's greatest hits? What are you on about son?


Please, stop blathering, the both of you. I have fish to buy in the morning. And that pisses you two off.

OK, run and hide and chase denial down a bottle. Booze is the only thing that could possibly wash away your fail.

You're about the fifty-fifth poster to mock my alcoholism, on a board that was built upon drunk posting.

That makes you as original as pipedream.

Welcome to XPT, Neo-Knox

I nendorse some of that!

Well, none of that makes me wrong, Sparky.

I probably endorse more. One question before I go, Meth Head:






Is this supposed to be your brain on drugs?

If your Google is broken, then you should have 2 more drinks and smack the side of it. I have been advised not to explain myself and let dullards flail away in ignorance.

Fuck, JB has outflanked us again with his superior munchkin intelligence.

Before anyone launchs a "take it to the cage" post I would like to point out that, for as mindless and numbing the J.B./Meat tennis game is in this thread, it is still more entertaining and mentally stimulating than actually talking about fantasy football.

TUP, you can put any actual football comments here too.

Fantasy Football is the easiest way to gamble on the entire football season and not go broke.

Btw, Izzat another two minutes between posts, bitches?








Oh I'm sorry. Three Minutes. Carry on with your meat in the seat shenanigans.

I'm on my way to fish tales, fellas. Have fun sitting around waiting for me to post.

Try not to flatter yourself while you're at you fucking dwarf.

Gotta run. Much love. Beso.

Sad. Whore in your apartment, and the only fish you get to eat will be out of the oven or frying pan.

This some kind of twisted cuckold fantasy you have? Creating the thought in your mind that people are jealous you get to cook for her? Then in the ensuing weeks, you watch porn scenes featuring her, while jerking off to the thought that they get to fuck her, but never got to cook for her, like YOU did. Anything to make sad lil Jimmy feel special.

Think she'll bring you a nice new apron for you to prance around the kitchen in?

Well, shit, piss and corruption, son: You know exactly where I live. Sounds to me you’re pissed you don’t get an invite.






Okay. Here. You’re welcome. I have some real world things to attend to. I'm sure that won't stop you from huffing on here, yes?

JB's idea of cooking is pulling down his pants and taking a shit on good china.

Nah, I'm not big on fish, except tuna and flounder... and cunt.

If you wanna invite me over, I'll pick up some strip steaks and beer. If I find a colored hooker, once the sun goes down, there is $50 in it for you to rent your couch. Don't worry, I am a very respectful guest, I'll bring a towel for the couch. Maybe another $10 if I have to hose her down in the back yard, before bringing her inside.

________________________________________________________________

Sanchez and Tebow are sucking up the field today. Amazed that it is only 10-0.

If JB invites me over I'm bringing a WWII style flame thrower to cook steaks...

This makes complete sense.

If Have2 thinks I make sense, then you KNOW there is iron in them words... and not the Slerp carrying type.

I'm a Chiefs fan. To put any actual football comments in this thread I would need a shotgun.

I picked them this week, thinking San Diego is soft and Arrowhead fans give a very good home field advantage. Not my only mistake.

Chiefs were always a quality organization. They have the same owner don't they? Want went wrong. Nevermind, I used Wiki, and remembered they hired Herm Edwards. The last head coach was no prize either. At least you didn't wake up a Jets fan.

That's Irish cuisine for you.
