Who wants to step up?!
 
There will be one good thing this football season - I'm gonna kick some serious a$$ in my fantasy leagues. Especially my BnG league. Barring injury, and possibly even with injury, I'll bet anyone that overall, for the season, my team will outscore anyone's. ANYONE'S! If my team stays healthy, I'll double up on most of you! That's right. Now who wants to step up? All our leagues score the same way I believe, so who thinks he's got a good team?!?! You're all going down. :)

In what league are you and what\'s your team\'s name?
Without having seen your team I doubt you\'ll double up on more than 2 teams (all BnG leagues combined).

I\'m commissioner of an 8 man traditional league(not here).
Here\'s my starters...

Donovan McNabb
Priest Holmes
Shaun Alexander
Peerless Price
Chad Johnson
Derrick Mason
Adam Vinetieri
Tampa Bay D/ST

I obviously play with a bunch of idiots. I got McNabb in round 4.

Back-up is McNair. Like stealing candy!!!!

Not bad - almost as solid as I am:

McNabb
Williams
Tomlinson
Toomer
Rice
Booker
Heap
Carney
Tampa\'s D

Backups:
Holcomb
Hassleback

James Stewart
TJ Duckett
Amos Zeroue
Moe Williams
Domonic Rhodes

Randle El
Charles Rogers
Santana Moss
Dennis Northcutt
Eddie Kennison

David Sloan

Joe Nedney

New England\'s D

I\'d bet I my best backups could beat a lot of teams.

Oh and tweaky - that\'s my BnG league team. These are the guys we\'re talking to now who claim to know so much about football... they let me draft this team. Barring injury, I\'m unstoppable.

JOESAM2002 08-26-2003 09:24 PM

Yah yah yah, you drafted that team because you had a good draft position. LOL. You\'re ok but ok ain\'t gonna get it! If you need some help getting Rice and Booker to the line of scrimmage let me know. I\'ll furnish some grease for their wheel chairs.

Joe I called you out once and I\'ll do it again. Put any amount of money you want on it. Any. The two fantasy indicies I\'m looking at have Toomer rated 6.5, Rice 15, and Booker 16.

Who are your receivers again?

Obviously I like McNabb a lot, and Ward and Henry are very good picks. Crumpler is gonna surprise people this year - he\'ll be the steal of your team. Mason, Hilliard, and Conway are all 2nd receivers - I\'d like to see more #1s. Martin and Hambrick don\'t do it for me either. You\'ll win some games, but I wouldn\'t be thinking about being league champion if I were you... sorry hombre.

saint5221 08-26-2003 10:05 PM

The league I am in drafted well , you would\'nt of gotten away with that roster there, and I picked 8th out of ten ,there are a couple of teams who look damn good but no run away monsters. Why did\'nt you step up and play with us there? Its hard to compare leagues to each other unless you drafted head to head, it does\'nt translate the same as the points do. Also we have more starters, the depth adds a lot to the league.
I\'m not to happy with Hambrick right now , would love another starting back. Martin needs another good year hope he can stay healthy, with Pennington out he should get a lot of carries. I\'ll need a few breaks, Shipp in Arizona, Desmond and Terrel in Chi. A few recivers like Conway to do well and my studs to be studs with the emergance of one of my bench guys , I think I\'ll be alright, But yea I\'m definatly not in the drivers seat.

Joe - let me say this - Ashley Lelie is going to be your best receiver I\'m guessing. Move him up now! Burress should have a good year too, but the Green Bros? I dunno. I have more confidence right now in Willy than in Ahman.

5221 - I drafted smart, that\'s all. Tomlinson fell to me at the 6th pick of round one. I took McNabb in two. Then in three there weren\'t a lot of good RBs left and Harrison and Owens were gone so I took Vick completely as trade bait (he wasn\'t hurt yet). Then I took Shockey in 4 and TB D in 5. People gave me crap but I had the number 1 QB, RB, TE, and D on my team already. I eventually traded Vick, Josh Reed, Shockey, and Buckhalter for Ricky, Heap, and Toomer. That gave me the 6th best receiver on most expert fantasy polls I saw, the number 2 RB, and the 3 TE.

No one will outscore me without injury. Period. Plus, if you look, my backup QBs are startes on teams that will throw and score a lot. MY top three backup RBs are starters. My three starting receivers are ranked compositely 11th - show me someone else with that - and with backup potential starts like Charles Rogers, Santana Moss, or Randle El. Even my # 2 kicker and D are in the top 10 in the rankings. The ONLY place I\'m not deep is at TE, but that won\'t matter at all.

WhoDat 08-27-2003 09:47 PM

Oh and Joe - I\'ve got Zeroue - the starter over Bettis in Pittsburgh - you wanna trade for the starter? I\'ll give you Zeroue for Burress or maybe Zeroue for Fargas and Lelie.

After all I have 5 starting RBs on my team. Do you at least want to have 3, or is two bad ones enough?

WhoDat 08-27-2003 09:50 PM

Oops - wait a minute - Moe Williams is the starter right now in Minnesota, that makes 6. 6 starting runningbacks. You want more than 2?

Thanks Whodat, I needed a good laugh today been fighting all day with our great state and federal gov. Keep those laughs coming. :D

And you want me to give up Burress and Lelie after YOU said they were the best I have? LOL

nocloning 08-28-2003 02:13 AM

I\'m not too happy with my team so I won\'t even go there, so just one question:
Derrick Mason is a #2 receiver - who do you think is the #1 receiver in Nashville?

WhoDat 08-28-2003 06:58 AM

Who wants to step up?!
 
NC - I kind of meant that they were second tier, but I am now noticing that they are all the #2 receivers on their team as well, except, as you pointed out, Derrick Mason. Still, your team doesn\'t get me going all that much man.

Joe - hey man, I\'m just trying to do you a favor. RBs score twice as many points or more on average than WRs in pretty much every league I\'ve ever been in. You\'ve got d-ck at rb - I was trying to give you another starting rb for a starting receiver, or for a backup rb and backup wr. That\'s a good deal. You don\'t like it, fine - we\'ll talk in a few weeks when my team is averaging over 100 points a week and you\'re struggling to hit 70. We can talk then, when the odds are even more in my favor and I can take more from you... good plan! ;)

JOESAM2002 08-28-2003 10:05 AM

Whodat, you might be right but hey, I\'m the commish I ain\'t supposed to win LOL. We\'ll see for sure in week 4 who is King of this Hill. Then you get time to heal your wounds till your unlucky week 13. Doom and Gloom again for you. LOL

You\'re a big talker for a guy who won\'t bet Joe! ;)

C\'mon, let\'s just do a gentlemen\'s bet, just for even more bragging rights. I\'ll bet that I outscore your team EVERY week of the season. You up?

JOESAM2002 08-28-2003 04:38 PM

Who wants to step up?!
 
Every week? Surely you jest. And one of these days i\'ll stop calling you Shirley. You\'re on. But if you spent as much every month for medicine as I do you\'d see why I don\'t bet money. LOL

If you win every week I might even refer to you as Sir. LOL Of course you could do the same if you\'re wrong.

Oh and one other thing. No whineing about injuries, they\'re a part of the game. If our players get injured and can\'t play that\'s just our bad luck, we do our best with what we have available. ;)

Sir, did you mean \"every week but the first one (and maybe the fifth, seventh and tenth)\" or did you really mean EVERY WEEK?
How many points does the Bucs\' defense have to score for you to outscore Joe this week?

Damn you NC, I was hoping everyone forgot about this!! ;)

Yeah, I think the Bucs are gonna need to score about 100 on D. ;)

Oops, it appears as if I was mistaken. But who would have thought that Ricky and Tomlinson would get blanked against Houston and KC?!?! That\'s nuts. Still, I give... I don\'t have the all-stars I thought...

BUT I WON\'T GET BEAT AGAIN!!!! ;) Ha ha!

Hwy man - I can admit when there\'s an off chance that the possibility arose that I might have, at one time, been mistaken. LOL! :)

Sure wish it was the other way around though. I wish I had been wrong about the Saints and right about this fantasy team...

Sir Joe, I will be true to my word and honor that bet. Although, I do think that (hopefully like the Saints) I had the worst week I could possibly have in week 1. No way Ricky and Tomlinosn are getting blanked like that again... and Donovan doesn\'t have to face Philly again, so he\'s back in the starting lineup. I can\'t believe you only beat me by one... you should have killed me. You\'re going down from here out! LOL. Lucky bastard... er, lucky SIR.

Pak whipped me in 3 leagues and Lummox got me in the other. So i\'m perfect too. 0-4 LOL. It\'ll not be that way all year.

Yeah - I knew that would happen... but I just couldn\'t bring myself to start Hassleback. I wanted to, I really did. He didn\'t have a great game, but 2 scores would have helped a lot.
