  1. Well I now know why those rumors of the cubs potentially re-signing Steve Trachsel came about. His trade value has to be through the roof now with Dusty in Cincy! Dunn for Trachsel? :D
  2. Yeah, my team is pretty bad, I'm holding up dead last. Had second to last pick with an autodraft... It also doesn't help when you face off against Romo in week one and Carson Palmer week 2 ](*,) QB - Drew Bree's (Rex as back up) WR - Joey Galloway and Reggie Wayne (Calvin Johnson back up) TE - Owen Daniels and Vernon Davis Def - Baltimore
  3. Ok, I have to start 2 Rb's this week and I have no idea who to start... Thomas Jones Vs. Mia Chris Brown @ N.O Tatum Bell @ Philly Edgerrin James @ Bal. Michael Pittman Vs. STL DeShawn Wynn Vs. S.D So far I have Chris Brown and Thomas Jones... I'm thinking maybe Tatum Bell and Thomas Jones? The Edge is up against a very tough Baltimore D so I have him seated this week. Wynn may get the start, but its up against a tough San Diego D. Any help would be very helpful.
  4. Just said his house was searched this morning.. Don't know for what yet..
  5. This was about like the Miami game.. Didn't get beat, just blew the game.. False start on the made field goal, calling a time out before NE missed the field goal, Urlacker getting burned by Tom Brady on a 3rd and long the set up a TD instead of a field goal.. Lots of mistakes, not to mention Grossman's stupid play to end the game. 2 minutes left and you go for the homerun ball on the firts play.. Stupid..
  6. I'll stick up for you, I thought the same thing before I got to your post.. Atleast he doesn't play like him, atleast we hope he wont..
  7. HAHAHA, thats awesome, I hated Pierre.. I clicked on that dodgers message board and they all seem to like the signing?? One guy wrote that he hits 300 and steals 50 bases and had 200 hits.. I wanted to post back that 300 doesn't mean anything if your OBP is 330. And the 200 hits and 50 sb doesn't mean as much when you get caught stealing/picked off at a 30% clip.. Not to mention all of the extra bases he gave up with his arm or lack there off..
  8. Ouch, bad weekend for you... Sounds like my year from last year.. I think my whole starting roster was on IR before the end of the season...
  9. I'm interested to hear the responses too.. I also have Brees. I have Damon Huard who I was going to start over him but he got injured thursday in practice so now I don't know what to do.. If I was you, i'd probably start Vick, Baltimore is top 6 or 7 in pass defense.
  10. Ok, I can start 2 rb's and have 3 that I'm trying to decide between.. I have Rudi Johnson home against Atl. Steven Jackson at SD or Leon Washington againts the crappy Cle run d. My picks are Johnson and Washington but wanted some other thoughts? Oh yeah, 1 point per 10 yards and 6 points a td, same thing for receiving. Thanks!
  11. http://www.670thescore.com will carry it, hopefully Mike Murphy wont talk over it the hole time though. Edit, just saw this stickied in transactions viewtopic.php?t=36103 There are a couple different links to choose from.
  12. My league was a pre-draft, so my biggest mistakes where, moving up Kevan barlow thinking he was going to put up pretty good numbers in NY and also moving up Ron Dayne, when i was pre-ranking them I read that he was most likely going to win the starting job... Yeah, that worked.. I'm still in first though.
  13. I had the same problem (although its fixed now). I would just end up clicking ont he premium message board and then the next page came up asking for me to log in (since i'm a tight ass and haven't gotten premium) I would click to access the regular board and it would send me through. But just clicking on the regular message board wouldn't work. It does now though. Just thought I'd answer your question..
  14. Thats who I was probably going to go with.. Taylor scares me because of Jones-Drew starting to get more carriers. I was hopefull there was a FA rb that I hadn't thought of or a starting rb that is doubtful for sunday and I could pick up there back up..
  15. Unfortunatley they both were actually drafted :-(
  16. Man, bye weeks are tough. I'm having a hard time figuring out what to do for my RB situation (might still be a little bit to early in the week for the final decision). Wondering if you guys had any suggestions or possible FA pick ups that I might not have thought about. 1 point per 10 yards rushing and recieving, and 6 points a td. no return yard points. Its a 12 team league so the scrap heap is pretty bare. I start 2 RB. I have Kevin Jones @ Min Fred Taylor Vs. NYJ Kevan Barlow @ JAc Vernand Morency Vs. Stl. I know my RB choices are terrible. Sounds like Barlow has all but lost the starting job in NY, I thought about picking up Leon Washington in place of him, but I have no idea. Some other notable FA are: Marion Barber III, Ron Dayne, Samkon Gado, Mewelde Moore, Correll Buckhalter, Mike Anderson, and Michael Robinson. Not a very good list I know. So any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!
  17. OMG, i'm about ready to go to Chicago and kick the crap out of Mike Murphy.. He wouldn't shut up during the press conference!!!
  18. Wow, that game was awesome.. I hope its not like the Carolina game from last year, destroy them during the regular season and lay an egg when it really matters...
  19. I wonder if this has anythign to do with the Tribune thinking about selling the cubs?
  20. Did he get fired or step down? That was pretty unexpected!
  21. For me college basketball is by far better than the NBA, but the NFL is by far more fun for me to watch than college football.. (that could be because i'm an Illini fan) MLB is better than college baseball. So I guess my vote goes for the pro's.
  22. Not sure what happen.. It was a pre-rank auto draft. My team is pretty brutal. Pre-ranking auto drafts suck.
  23. I was going to pick him up this morning but someone beat me to the gun ](*,) I followed Vances' advise, well sort of, I picked up Glenn with TO being out a month, but I dropped Rod Smith only because I don't trust Plummer to do much in the passing department. I should drop one of my RB to pick up another WR, but haven't decided which one, if Gado gets the starting job then he could be valuable, but who knows. Jones started to show some flashes against the Bears and Barlow got a majority of the carriers on sunday but had no where to run..
  24. Ok, I need some help, my WR's have been killing me so far in the first 2 weeks, also, my second RB has been hurting me too and was hoping for some opinions/advise about any free agent pick ups or who to start. My team currently is QB: T. Brady Back up: Drew Brees (should I start him since NE seems to be running a lot more this year?) WR: Rod Smith, Den WR: Eric Moulds, Hou back ups: Deon Branch, Possible FA: There is Jerricho Cotchery NYJ, Troy Williamson MIN and Terry Glenn that I'm thinking about picking up but I don't konw which one and who to drop. RB: Rudy Johnson, Cin RB: Fred Taylor, Jac Back Ups: Kevin Barlow, Kevin Jones and Samkon Gado. Should I start any of these? TE: Alge Crumpler, Atl Back Up: Vernon Davis, SF K: Nate Kaeding Def: Chicago my other back up Defense sucks, I just have them to drop when I'm in need to pick up a kicker for week 3.. Any help would be appreciated. I should have won this week but my WR scored a total of 6 points. Our scoring is a point every 10 yards, 6 points a td and return yards do not count..
