Shit, you traded me man? That’s not right. You could’ve atleast warned me first. Let me try to get my shit together.

heh. I’m sure you know who I meant.

And as for your WR matchups, why not go with Smith, Berrian and Colston? (Moss will be shadowed by Champ all night long)

Santana Moss, not Randy Moss.

Steve Smith - any questions?

I am blowing up in every league I am in. Roy Williams, Warrick Dunn, TO, Holt, Tiki, McNabb its silly. I may sweep high score in all my leagues

I’m fucking up my predictions again guys!

I predicted Lewis with 51 yards & 0 Td’s and he got 50 yards & no td. Dammit… I’m off!

I got Big Ben throwing two td’s today too, and he hasn’t throw one all season… we’ll see.

Good luck guys…I’m still undefeated 5-0 in my league. U still undefeated IRISH?

Keep kickin ass and takin names A.A.

Go Steelers!

GO SKINS!

Won all four leagues this week, taking high score in three of them for another 10, 10 and 20 bucks.

So I am 6-0 (17 straight!)McNabb, Tiki, TO, Heap big gainers. That trade for TO I made last week was right on time, I would have lost without him.

4-2 Dunn, Holt, Broncos D top dogs

4-2 Parker, Branch, Roy Williams fantasy studs

And I moved from second place in the overall league down by 4pts to first place, up by 30 pts with the Chicago D still to go. I started Bledsoe, Gates, LT, LJ, Holt, Kaeding and Evans.

I am a little concerned with what I saw from KC, I need Trent to come back so LJ has some room to run. The TD saved a horrible outing fantasy wise.

I am disgusted by the Skins.

I’m disgusted by the Skins. Atleast Moss put together an ok day. What is up with those guys AA? Atleast the Packers didn’t lose this week! haha

So, I won both this week and like AA had players blowing up for me.

My Yahoo League.

Holt, D. Jackson, LT, Parker, Gates. I still have Grossman and Boldin to play tonight and i’m up by 30.

In my Draft league, McNabb, R. Brown, Steve Smith, Moss and Pitt D had a huge day. I still have Chicago K and Berrian to play tonight. I’m up by 51 in that league.

All in all a huge week. Oh and who said I should sit Steve Smith this week. haha I just hope I have this kind’ve week later in the season when it counts!

I’m hoping that Berrian blows up tonight so I can use him and Colston as trade bait. I want to upgrade my RB position.

Dont know man they suck. We needed to be 3-3 at this time at a minimum to keep pace. Next three games are tough before we get TB. We go to Indy, Dallas at home and then at Phili…ouch.

How the fuck do you let Travis Henry rush for a buck seventy?

I got beat this week. Not by as much as I thought I would though. I would have had a chance but my opponent had Tomlinson, Gates, and Rivers against SF. It was pretty much a no brainer that his guys would have big games. I’m now 4-2.

Honestly, I’m not too upset about my loss being that my fiance won field level seats in a raffle for the Steelers game yesterday! It was friggin awesome! Not only did they destroy KC, the seats were incredible. I’m still pumped.

Well, it’s really not too late to get their shit together. The division is still close and it’s early in the season yet. Anything can happen. However, they do have some really tough games coming up like you pointed out.

And if it’s any consolation, Henry rushed for 120 yards last week against Indy.

Actually, it’s been too late for awhile now. WAS overachieved last year and overpaid free agents in the offseason, maybe assuming they could become contenders with Brunell.

Sorry to say, but it’s not really a huge surprise to see WAS bringing up the rear in NFC Beast.

People were calling me up and talking shit because the Bears DST was at 0 pts at the half…these fuckers…haha, 3 DTD’s baby!! I am ahead by 45 points, alone in first place. I ended up with 141, that is ridiculous for pretty much a TD only scoring format.

That is fuggin’ ridiculous. Good work.

Alright, I got a question for everyone. I’m currently in first place in one of my league and very happy with my team. However, i’m weak at QB and would like to upgrade. But I think my team is strong enough that I could have a weak QB and still win the league. I mean, I won by 30pts this past week and Grossman got -10 points.

So, here’s my question. Do I try to work a deal to upgrade my QB situation or just sit tight?

QB - Grossman, Leinart

I’ve already looked and their schedules for Week 15 and 16 are actually quite favorable. This is assuming that I get first in the league and get a first round bye.

I got an offer from a guy in my league and am thinking about it.

I would give up Gates and D. Foster for Brees and C. Taylor.

I would be giving up arguably the best TE in the league but would get an upgrade in both QB and RB.

Should I pull the trigger. He also said he would deal Bulger.

I actually like what I saw from Leinart and I think Grossman will be fine. Who would your TE be?

If he gives up Bulger, I would consider it.

Yeah, I agree with you that’s why I told him i’d have to think about it. Leinart looked pretty solid against a great Bears D. And so Grossman had a bad game, it happens.

Available TEs in the league are, Desmond Clark, and not much after that really.

Like I said I think my team is strong enough to not have a top tier QB.

Would Chester start for you? If not you would have to figure if the “sight” upgrade in QB is worth the bigger downgrade in TE. With Rivers starting to sling it, Gates number will be Gates like.

Nope, he would be ridin’ the bench. My starting RBs are LT and Parker.

I agree with ya also about Rivers starting to throw it. Now that they are taking the leash off the kid and not playing as much Martyball, Gates should become Gates again.

Dre, this trade really hinges on your RB situation. As mentioned, you’re looking at a slight upgrade at QB and a significant downgrade at TE. But the deal also includes a solid upgrade at RB with Taylor instead of Foster.

If you can actually get Bulger and Taylor (two solid upgrades), it becomes a no-brainer.

Thanks for the advice guys. I sent the guy an email back asking if Bulger would be an option. If Bulger is an option I agree that it’s a no brainer.

I’ll let you guys know how it goes.

Alright, here are his two offers with Bulger included.

  1. Bulger, Taylor for Gates, Parker
  2. Bulger, Taylor for Gates, Foster, Reggie Williams

1 isn’t an option. I would be downgrading from Parker to Taylor.

2 isn’t that bad. I have 3 stud WRs and Williams just sits on my bench. I have Holt, Boldin and D. Jackson.

Should I pull the trigger? I would need to pick up a WR to get me through the bye weeks with Holt and Boldin.
