Toad, is my guess.

P. Manning had a banner day out there, and my Probables came through. But the Rivers Rats have the high score so far with 286.40 last week.

infinite monkey · 10-06-2014, 12:12 PM

Ahh, i thought my score last week was lower. Thanks, man!

Again, I really enjoy football on Sundays so much more with this fantasy league. It's really a lot of fun. So thanks, jim. Even though my adrenaline was pumping as I watched Manning pile on more and more points. But hey, it's Peyton. Who can begrudge him anything?

Also, as I've said so many times before: it's football, anything can happen. Was watching the Browns/Titans game and my friend calls second quarter. She's telling me how she and her husband both (SUPPOSED huge Browns fans for years, more him than her she doesn't really 'get' the game) both picked Titans on the football poll I got on last week because 'they're in it for the money, not the loyalty.' I just laughed and repeated, "it's early, it's football, anything can happen.' (I, of course, always stick with my loyalties come hell or high water and those are Chargers and both Ohio teams and always against Steelers.) So did I resist calling her after Browns came back and won 29-28 and hitting her with a Nelson Haaa-haaa? Well, yes, yes I did. Restraint, my friends, restraint and sportsmanship.

Awesome. I love the Nelson ha ha.

Geez. 7 of my players didn't practice, and 2 are on BYE.

Things fall apart. The center can not hold.

Undertoad · 10-09-2014, 11:51 AM

Wull theres' your problem right there... you shouldn't have a center on your team

Lol! The poor underrated center.

Man, do I stink this week.

infinite monkey · 10-13-2014, 04:23 PM

Well, to be fair, you had a bad week for your team. Me, I just made a seriously bad choice. We'll see though. zippyt will probably beat me, what with still having Kaepernick to play.

glatt · 10-14-2014, 10:14 AM

I don't understand how the rankings work, and it's not just sour grapes that I've fallen to 6th place.

Why aren't the Philly Forktards ranked 1st? They are tied with the other 6 of us for W-L-T records, and they have earned the most total points in the entire league and had few points scored against them. Why are they ranked #5?

lumberjim · 10-14-2014, 10:50 AM

I Can't get to it on my phone, but on the desk top site, it tells you under manage league. I think it's division record, then head to head... I'll check when I get to work later. And I'm 7th, with the dane record as James, but I have more points scored and less allowed than him! But he beat me week one.

lumberjim · 10-14-2014, 10:51 AM

I might have posted the tiebreaker system toward the end of last year's thread

classicman · 10-14-2014, 03:26 PM

I am thoroughly confused. I am moving people around because of the bye week. This sux.

lumberjim · 10-14-2014, 07:04 PM

TIE BREAKING

which does not help much. I never changed the default which is head to head record.... but we could choose divisional or total points for options.

I think it mirrors the NFL system

lumberjim · 10-20-2014, 10:06 PM

Are you watching this? That was not a touchdown. This is not real life.
