I don't have Peyton this year. My starter is Drew Brees. It's not the QB I'm concerned with, it's Arian Foster's hamstring.

beware the anti-awesomeness. . . .


(and get ben tate if you don't have him already!)

I knew I should have started Jordy Nelson!

I should have started Robert Meachem. And I could have activated Donald Driver in Fleaflicker.

On a brighter note.. I *did* start Greg Jennings.

Both the wife and i are facing each other first. She has Rodgers, Matthews, and Grant. I have Driver, Jennings, and Woodson but because of Rodgers she is smoking me right now. lol

Just noticed that Sharkie is smokin' the LoonyLeague East at the moment because Rodgers is her QB.

Tsk - I'm up against Brees in half of my leagues.

He's already put up 31.68 points againt me in one league and a whopping and 127.40 in another!

Nice start to the season - my top pick in dynasty league is inactive!

I shall be having Hammy sandwiches with an Arian flavour washed down with a pint of Foster(s) to drown my sorrows.

I give up this week.

Have some Pippi (with added sunbeam)..

I am so glad i took Brady this year. However, Missy is not so pleased. lol
I have yet to have McGahee play yet and im trouncing her now.

Here's a comment that I just left on my FF league's bullitin board for my oppenent this week. Note: He drafted Peyton Manning & David Garrard. Pick up Rex Grossman in FA on Thurday & cleared a last minute trade for Donovan McNabb on Sunday.

Nighthawk,

Lost on a week in which you had the 3rd highest score because you had the misfortune of being matched up against the team that had the 2nd highest score. Even if you hadn’t canceled your trade with me for Kolb (11.46 points), opting instead to trade with someone else for McNabb (1.76 points), you still would have lost by 2.42 points.

I defiantly know how you feel losing a game that you actually did such a good job in. I lost 3 games in the 1st 7 weeks of the 2009 season when I had the 2nd or 3rd highest scores for those weeks. I 3-4, highest overall point total for the season & was sitting on the outside of the playoffs race. So I defiantly feel your pain, NOW GET OVER IT!

Memo to self: do NOT attempt lineup additions and cuts on FleaFlicker at silly o'clock in the middle of the night when suffering from lack of sleep and other distractions.. you might end up cutting your 4th-round WR. "Who's Dwayne Bowe??!"
