Well, that was fun. Remind me never to watch football with y'all IRL. Or does even football fall into the realm of 'don't talk to her...ever.'

I thought my team might blow it, jim, but they eked it out. Good game.

Hope my luck holds out.

Thread killa.

Clod you have the shot at beating Amanda this week cos she's got all the Eagles and it's a BYE week for the Eagles. To do this you're going to have to go get two QBs. Good luck, I am counting on you.

glatt: most of my team was on bye so I had to scramble. You have a good chance against me this week.

I'm still playing, despite the total lack of anything resembling sportsmanship and fun.

I was going to point out earlier this morning that you needed to do some serious work on your team, but then I looked at your record and realized you were on top of it. I'd only be insulting you.

I've been fortunate so far that I've only had one or two on bye. When you have half a dozen players on bye, it's got to be frustrating.

It was inevitable I'd run into this mess...my nonexistent strategy seems to be to have a couple people from one team playing a couple people from another team.

I looked this week and started laughing. My team has been systematically dismantled. My strategy has hit the stratosphere of nonexistent.

Well, you're number 3 of 10 in the coach rankings. And being a coach is the only thing you can do in this game. You can't go out there and play on the field.

glatt: due to my highly competitive nature, I'd probably get out and play if I could. Yes, please to break every bone in my body!

jim: it was a lot closer than it was supposed to be!

It has been fun to win a couple, as compared to last year.

What does this mean? I need to trade two of my players for two quarterbacks who are not currently on any other team? Or I need to make nice with someone and trade with a Dwellar?

Your one QB is in a bye, the other has lost his starting job... you should hit "ADD" and find two free agent QBs and drop two players from your bench. Then after those moves take effect, you should move your two QBs into starting positions.

if you want to I mean no pressure and all

It's cool, I'm happy to take advice and improve my chances of not being dead last at the end of the season. I just don't know anything about football, fantasy or otherwise.

In that case, ADD QB Mark Sanchez and drop QB J. Locker

And you could swap your bench TE B. Pettigrew for your starter TE F. Davis

Amanda's team is so strong, she will be a tough opponent if she sets up her team.
