  1. Well, after my ranting I've turned it around. I beat the first and second place teams the last two weeks (even after I stupidly thought playing Nate Burleson (0 points) over Eric Decker (43 points) was a good idea - thank you Josh Gordon). Then this week I was playing 4th place team. Win and I'm in the playoffs. Lose and I'm out. Got stuck with Reggie Bush in the lineup when I couldn't switch in time to put in Ryan Matthews and thought I was screwed. P. Rivers 25.96 AJ Green 16.2 J Gordon 28 L McCoy 34.6 J Graham 20.8 E Decker 21.78 B Walsh 8 KC Defense 38 A whopping 193.34 points and I head to the playoffs to face the top seed who lost AP and Gronk this week
  2. I cannot stand listening to Gruden and his smarmy "I'm smarter than you because I used to do this" coach-speak
  3. Slightly better throw and that is 6 for Alshon... But who cares when you do that!
  4. Love watching Marshall block
  5. Except for that reverse Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. It seems to me like a L/R piggyback would be advantageous against teams that utilize platoons or have guys with big platoon splits
  7. we got screwed
  8. poor Australia
  9. nah, gonna be Holland
  10. crap
  11. freakin' Honduras
  12. or G
  13. A: Brazil, Cameroon, Mexico, Croatia B: Spain, Chile, Australia, Holland C: Colombia, Ivory Coast, Japan, Greece D: Uruguay, Italy, Costa Rica, England E: Switzerland, Ecuador, Honduras, France F: Argentina, Nigeria, Iran, Bosnia G: Germany, Ghana, USA, Portugal H: Belgium, Algeria, Korea, Russia
  14. Seriously, could that be a more egregious missed traveling call? I mean, yeah they played like crap down the stretch, but if the ref who is standing 3 feet away gets that call right they probably win the game if they make a free throw or 2
  15. Even if they trade Deng (which I don't think is a given what with Thibs' enormous man crush on Luol and everything) I don't see them finishing worse than 7th or 8th in the terrible Eastern Conference. (Also, interesting how in both the NHL and NBA the Western Conference is so much better than the Eastern Conference) They would be worse than 5 of: Toronto, Charlotte, Philly, Detroit, Washington, Boston, Orlando, NYK, Brooklyn, and Milwaukee. I can see New York and Brooklyn rebounding to be better than they've started. Washington has a chance to be decent. Then there are a bunch of garbage teams that probably aren't much better than Noah/Gibson/Boozer/Butler/etc. + Thibs' defense
  16. I didn't realize Hyde was going to end up in coaching, but I guess that should have made sense because his role was Player Development...
  17. Not that OSU isn't a very good team, but I'd be hesitant to say they would spank Baylor. if Illinois can put up 35 points on you (granted, OSU may have let off the gas - I don't know because I was unable to watch the game) Baylor can probably score pretty darn well against you also, and Baylor has a defense that is quite a bit better than Illinois' simply based on the fact that almost every team in the country has a defense that is quite a bit better than the one at Illinois
  18. I'm in 5th place in my league, having lost matchups by 1.9 and 3.9 points at different times, as well as losing matchups when things like AJ Green and Reggie Bush combine for 6 points (this week) or Jimmy Graham gets a 0 and I lose by like 7 points. I still have a shot at the playoffs, but it will basically take me beating the teams in first, second, and 4th these next 3 weeks. Oh, and the team in 3rd I'm outscoring by over 19 points a week and the team in 4th by over 11 points/week. I hate how frustrating fantasy football is, but I love playing with all my college buddies. Glad there's no money involved.
  19. They aren't defending the bunch well at all
  20. who was that detroit coach that actually did this Marty Morninwhieg
  21. Why take a knee with one second left? Give it to hester and see what happens
