Don't feel bad. Our game was like a contest to see which team could **** more. 72.6 to 71.6? Ouch.

Turns out it didn't matter whether I traded Stafford or Rodgers. They both stink this year. Gronk is disappointing too. So is Colston.

What a strange year for fantasy. So many reliable players are having bad years so far.

How about it? I have good guys, just can't seem to get them all to put together good games in the same week.

[Night's Watch]

Go figure....3-0 in this league....scored more points in another league and im 1-2 in that one, just bad luck on matchups in that one, good luck in matchups so far in this one.....Hurting with Forte and Jackson at RB, both need to come back.

I feel ya man. I'm usually pretty good in fantasy, but so far I'm only winning in one of my 4 leagues (most I've ever ran). My only good team (3-0) looks like this:

QB- Peyton Manning
RB- Ray Rice
RB- Adrian Peterson
WR- AJ Green
WR- Steve Smith
WR- Desean Jackson
TE- Tony Gonzalez
K- Gostkowski
DST- Texans

I had some teams that looked better on paper, but all my other teams are 1-2 so far.

I usually do pretty good too. I'm in seven leagues and am 2-1 in one, 1-2 in three, 1-1-1 in one and 0-3 in ours. I have a total points league through Yahoo and I am in 5th place out of 10. It's frustrating but fun at the same time. That's what I love about fantasy football, you can never count on anyone having good games. I guess that's true in real life too though. haha!

Well, in my 3 leagues where my teams are 1-2, those are all my message board leagues. I can usually rely on superior knowledge to win in fantasy, but that's not the case with these MB leagues. Everybody here is knowledgable and they all dedicate a lot of time to their teams. There's been several times where I thought I was about to make a savvy pickup, and somebody that's ahead of me on the waiver list beats me to it.

I still love fantasy though. I'm sure one of my teams will turn it around. Hopefully.

Echooooo..

I'm in three leagues and am a combined 8-1...

Best start to the year I've ever had collectively...

Sigh...

I've had years like that.

Not happening this year. 6-6 combined record.

[Lawless_1]

I'm only in one league..... 3-0 baby.

QB - Tony Romo
RB - Arian Foster
RB - Micheal Turner
WR - Roddie White
WR - Reggie Wayne
WR - Andrew Hawkins
TE - Jason Witten
K - Alex Henery
DST - Packers

Gave Hawkins the start for Garcon while he is out. I also have the Patriots defense but right now the Packers D is providing me with bookoo points.

I just traded Hawk for Jordy Nelson in my Yahoo league. I just don't think Hawk will keep this up for the whole season. I bought low on Nelson. The Packers have played some outstanding defenses in the first 3 weeks. I think the TDs will start to come for Nelson now.

[Millz]

The Buds tore it up this week. Will 190.6 stand as the high score of the year?

In my money league everyone chips in 5 bucks for the highest score of the year. Winner gets 50. So even tho we don't have that, can have a braggin rights for it.

[Night's Watch]

Ouch Buds.....135.6 to 134.9, I can't believe with both of us scoring big points that it came down to a 0.7 difference.

Ouch...Score change came back to bite you...

Lol, I know right. Proof that the fantasy gods hate me. I saw the espn scoring change and I didn't even have to read it, I knew it would go against me.

[Aquapod770]

My team *****

I have been so unlucky in this league this year and last year. How did I not make the playoffs last year with the top 2 WRs in fantasy football and one of the top 3 RBs...and Matt Ryan having his best year (until this year)

[Ron Mexico]

I'll take 4-2....considering my team hasn't really played that well most of the time. Those wins are lucky.

And who is Amish Sensation? I need to know who I'm battling.....

[Millz]

Ill take 4-2 too with highest scoring total so far.

But my most most disappointed pick is Cam so far. Nothing like his numbers last year.

Also have to play Ben this week, and I hope he doesnt have an Oakland repeat, well unless they lose. He had 41 points that week lol.

[BengalRugby]

I can't seem to lose.


I forgot to replace three starters on byes, and I still have a chance to win?




People might want to reconsider who drafted the best team....

[Shake n Blake]

Damn. 153 pts and I still have Frank Gore coming up. My team is now 5-3 and coming on strong.

[Toast Jones]

My team is awful. Vick/Rivers is a terrible QB combo. I figured between the two I'd have a decent QB spot, but not so much. Gates is just killing me. And my idea of trying to use a Hillis/Williams combo for my last running back spot aint working either.

I have Fitz, Roddy White, Marshall and Sproles. And that's pretty much it. I'm screwed.

Don't feel bad bro. In the league I started, this was the team I drafted:

Mike Vick (bust)
LeSean McCoy (slight disappointment)
Beanie Wells (bust)
Greg Jennings (bust)
Steve Smith (big disappointment)
Eric Decker
Jimmy Graham (disappointment)
Gostkowski
Texans DST

Like you, I drafted what I thought was a good backup in Jay Cutler (ouch).

[Ron Mexico]

This is how this league went down:

Johnny's Cupcakes - Ron Mexico - League Champion
The Static Klinglers - Shake n Blake - Runner Up
Millzys Budz - Millz - 3rd place
A Song of Forte and Matty "Ice" - ???? - 4th place
Hugh G Rections - bfine32 - 5th place
PA Pinheads - PA Pinhead - 6th place
Cincinnati Bowties - Paul From Dayton - 7th place
Amish Sensation- ???? - 8th place
Roid Rage - Aquapod 770 - 9th place
Toast Jones - Toast Jones - 10th place

Honestly, I have absolutely no clue who is the owner of two of these teams. Step forward, I want to know who I bested this year. Also, we should try to get the same group of people back for this league next season. Had some good fun, fellas! Cheers!

[PApinhead]

Congratulations Ron or Johnny!!! Guess it's not hard to figure out who I am. haha!!

I'm definitely in again next year!!!!! I had a lot of fun too!!!!
