offline is my bag.
Missed the draft unfortunately due to travel but actually pretty pleased with what I've ended up with! Looking forward to getting underway now
I concur. Just in and gutted to have missed out. Glad your alive Max and you'll always carry a special place in my heart because of the cup final (don't think I've ever cuddled a grown man more) but it's firmly down to you why I've missed out :slipper:Quote:

Waiver request already submitted!
Anquan Boldin as "the next Megatron"...I didn't think I'd drunk that much...
Completely missed the draft but actually don't think I could have put together a better team anyway!
More than once I hit the draft button and it didn't seem to work. I forgot to get a starting qb!
I'll trade you bortles or fitzpatrick for a RBQuote:

My draft didn't go according to plan. My plan was to go for mostly WRs at first, then RBs but I missed one pick and was automatically given an RB. What I didn't notice is that I was also switched to autopick mode so that when my next pick came around I got another RB. First 4 four picks included 3 RBs. Oops.
Sorry for those who missed it. If we go back to an offline draft next year then I'll free up my spot for someone else. But first thing is first, kicking arse this year.
*kiss* :)Quote:

There's a Christine Michael love in every season since he was drafted. Let's see if this is his breakout season. pleased to get Rocket Lockett anyway :greengrinQuote:

Crazy night for the Saints WR's, when I saw that score I thought I was a goner, but I just need 5.75 points from Antonio Brown and the Steelers D tonight to put up a first week win. As long as Brown doesn't do a Keenan Allen I should be ok.Quote:

Well that was a pretty sickening defeat
Ended up winning by a bawhair after Jordan Matthews performance last night! :thumbsup:
Won by less than a point although I did take out the eagles D just to secure the win. Would have been another 10 points but someone did leave 45 points on the bench between 2 players.
If Landry hadn't got the ball stripped or big ben had 1 less interception i'd have won :boo hoo:Quote:

Snuck a win there thanks Bennett, Fuller and Mathews combining for 4.2 points.
OBJ is on the trade block.....
Whoever is playing me this weekend, enjoy the victory. Clearly never looked at bye weeks so I'm now playing Keenum, Rainey & Cole Beasley hahaha!!
Its me, its gonna be close as i did the same and Cooks, Charles, Graham and Snead are all on the bye week.Quote:

Don't know why my notifications aren't pulling through on my phone. Rejected both offers but appreciate the offers.
Give us a clue. You said OBJ was on the block, what do you want? I thought the trade I proposed was reasonable but it was rejected without a reason?Quote:

I'd be looking for a WR/RB, not sure who's trade was who but I have ertz as my no1 TE and he's passed his bye week now and the other offer would be a QB2 and a RB2/flex at best once this week passes.Quote:

Who is the Revis Islanders? I've proposed you a trade...
It's nice when bye weeks work out. Had to bring in Hurns, he and bortles scored 46 points 😆
:grr:
Derrick Henry is having a ****ing laugh. I persevere with him thru 7 weeks of misery, I finally drop him to the bench and he promptly scores 15 points. Twat.
what you on the lookout for?Quote:

I have been doing well so far but the Bye weeks are going to hurt me, 6-3 unless no Romo has a nightmare.
I proposed some trades a couple of days ago. Is anyone still playing?
I've had a bit of a nightmare this season with work and crap internet.Quote:

I'm still playing, but I've not got anyone worth trading after losing the top two RB's I drafted to injury.
I've not really been paying much attention this year if I'm being brutally honest. About to move house, baby on the way and a whole host of other stuff going on!
Yeah, I didn't think you would trade him but without asking you never know. Some people have different needs. It would be nice if people would play the game, it makes it more fun.Quote:

I've just spent the last half hour at work trying to work out permutations, but I think (I could well be wrong) I have qualified for the playoffs given the remaining matchups and my head to head record against the teams that would need to finish above me. Still on track for a third title in a row... :greengrin
I'm actually amazed at how my team are doing.

"Play the game" means not ignoring trade offers even if you don't like the trade. If you don't like the trade, click reject. I'm not sure how you consider me trading away Jordy Nelson as me strengthening my team? I was just looking for some help at RB and figured that offering to trade away my top WR was the way to go. Apparently I should have been offering players that are not even on my roster.Quote:

A real shame as this was such a great league.
I agree :agree::agree::agree::greengrinQuote:

Edit: I'm assuming I'm at least one of "some people" since you didn't mention anyone by name for some reason. Not paying attention because you didn't like the way the draft went seems very petty to me. Anyway, since nobody gives a F about this league any more I'll focus my attention on my other leagues and let you guys have your own fun.
Think I need to win my last 2 games to have any shot of the playoffs.
Frustrating that people arent trying and are still better than me. lol
We should try again next year with our old skool draft and less teams. Its been hard work finding even average RBs and WRs who are getting game time when you have 13 other players competing for them. Thanks to Gatecrasher for doing it, especially in the face of plenty of moaning and patchy enthusiasm :aok:Quote:

I think we all owe it to the teams who made the fantasy playoffs next week to make the effort to be competitive, even just for the last few weeks.
I've been taking it seriously the whole time just not had too much to do in terms of waivers, looking forward to the play offs
I've been paying zero attention lately and I'm far too busy for the remainder of December. Moving house this weekend, a number of concerts, family engagements, trips to London lined up.
As a result, and since the trade deadline has passed, I've dropped my best players into Waivers for those still actively competing.
LeGarrette Blount, Larry Fitzgerald, Julian Edelman, Latavius Murray and Cam Newton all now available on Waivers.
Have fun!
Smallwood is just garbage, I've been trying the whole time and will be taking you down in this weekends quarter final:greengrinQuote:

Never realised last weekend was the last week of the regular season. Pleased to have made the playoffs for the 3rd year running. Tough match against the #2 seed this weekend.
You sure you're taking it seriously haha?Quote:
