2008 TDMMC Fantasy Football

Actually you finished 12 out of 14 teams....I have to give you mad props for playing,being across the pond...You play with one hand behind your back...

[Sunstroke]

You want a fleecing? I made a trade in the preseason to try to get the anchor for my #2 RB (at that time anyway), Willis McGahee. I thought Ray Rice was going to become Baltimore's most valuable fantasy back at some point this season, so I dealt one of my bench rookie RBs straight up...

Chris Johnson for Ray Rice

Yeah, ouch... Two silver linings on that extremely bad trade though. I still managed to be the #2 seed going into the playoffs, due in part to my "other" bench rookie RB (Forte) kicking ass all season. Second lining...it was a good friend that I dealt Johnson to, and we are on opposite sides of the playoff bracket, and with both of us having big leads after this week, we'll probably face each other in the title match.

Congrats to Guru this weekend...I'm kind of left scratching my head at my team.....

I've got an 18 point lead on AZ, but he's got McNabb going tonight.  He could very well pull this out depending on which McNabb shows up. 

[stinkfish]

I've got a two point lead in the semis to this one kid in another league. He's got Jamal Lewis playing tonight. Anyone know Tanya Harding's number?

[Sunstroke]

Did Donovan pull it out for AZ??

Did Vegas save anything for Stinky?

Can anyone stop the Freakfest?

When will the short questions end??

[YoFuggedaboutit]

Good matchup AZ and congrats.  Good luck going against Stinky. 

I'll take on Lil B for 5th place. 

[Sunstroke]

Good luck to AZ and the Stinkmeister in the other semifinal...

As far as my opponent goes... What better place than Vegas to unleash a righteous Freakfest?

Fantasy football playoffs...it's the most wonderful time of the year!!

[Guru-In-Vegas]

I wish I had passed the first round of the playoffs in my other league.  100 bucks down the shitter for nothing.     I have the Sucks to root for though even if it is just for bragging rights. 

BRING ON DA FREAK FEST!!!

[Sunstroke]

Nice signature line there, Vegas...that one's been a while. 

[Sunstroke]

Well...Me and Vegas are coming down to the wire.  Vegas with a 3 point lead and Donald Driver left to go. I have my kicker, Mason Crosby.

Driver is averaging just under 7 pts per game in his last 6...
Crosby is averaging just over 9 pts per game in his last 6...

Since a tie is distinctly possible, I am cutting and pasting the tiebreakers. Las Vegas...you don't want it to go to tiebreakers, because I win the first two clean.

In the event that a playoff game ends in a tie, the deadlock will be broken using the following system:

1.   Most touchdowns scored by entire starting roster. (Freakfest 4, Vegas 3)
2.   Most fantasy points by starting quarterback(s). (Freakfest 27, Vegas 7)

So...basically, if I want to live to face Stinky in the Finals, I need Crosby to outscore Driver by 3.

Game on!!

Who wants to get Stinky more? The Sucks, or the Freak Show? Tune in later to find out. In the mean time, I will be happy to sit and watch you two dance for my pleasure. Good luck boys. Keep it clean.

I've got a 7 point lead on Lil B.  Williams, Thomas, and Wayne all did brilliant for me this week, but that was negated by Kurt Warner getting his ass kicked in the snow in New England. 

Lil B still has Matt Forte and Greg Olsen going tonight, and I have Chicago's defense.  Forte is hurting, so it's very up in the air. 

[Sunstroke]

Forte appears to be fine... I just watched a WGN news report that showed him cutting on it in practice, and there were no grimaces or any favoring that toe. The words he used himself were "good to go" before he disappeared inside the building.

Olsen is a perfect boom or bust TE...I predict he'll either drop a goose egg or notch 12-13 pts. Nothing in between.

Hey Stroke, are you gonna host the playoff challenge again this year?
