mredskins 08-13-2012, 12:11 PM I put the bottle down this year. First time since I was 12 I will not be playing any Fantasy Football. That is 27 year stretch of playing FF.
I can remember when I was teenager we had a 5 Star Notebook for each year that we kept the stats and teams in. You handed in your lineup Friday afternoon before school ended then Tuesday the Commish would use the USA Today newspaper and calculate everyone's score. You really had to love it back in those days; lots of work involved without the web.
Any ways good luck to everyone this year! Maybe I will be back next year.

I think I started playing in the mid 90s. Back then everything was over the phone. I remember being in a league where trades and free agent pick-ups were like a $1 each. I wasted so much money it wasn't even funny.
Chico23231 08-13-2012, 12:28 PM I have a fantasy keeper question for all you Fantasy Football guys. I had Ryan Mathews last year and he can be a 7th round keeper for me this year in a 10 team standard non-ppr format. We start 2 RB, 2WR and 1 flex. Is he worth keeping for a 7th round pick? or is he done this year and too fragile.... discuss. One other option is to keep Ben Tate in the 13 round of a 15 round draft, and then pray Arian Foster, who is on another fantasy, team gets hurt.
7th round keeper? hell yeah. he is fragile but the value is for 7th round is too good to pass up imo. take him.
CultBrennan59 08-13-2012, 12:42 PM My team;
QBs: Matt Ryan (Keeper), Cutler
RBs: Ray Rice (Keeper), Doug Martin, Royster, Brandon Jacobs, Ronnie Hillman, David Wilson
WR: Brandon Marshall, Greg Jennings, Kendall Wright, Leonard Hankerson
TE: Martellus Bennett, Jacob Tamme
Defense: San Fran
K: Matt Bryant
My question is I have San frans defense week 1 and they play Green Bay week 1. Detroits defense is still available. Should I pick them up and drop Jacobs? Hillman? Royster?

That is right too! LOL! yo ureally need to have a commish you trusted back then; it was way to easy to cheat.

Chico, even if he doesn't play the first couple of weeks, I don't see another RB on the Chargers somehow taking away his starting role once he is healthy. Fantasy Football is a marathon not a sprint, so at round 7 he is still a good value I think.
I just wanted a reality check from someone. Now I'm reading that Mathews wasn't even in a sling yesterday at practice, so maybe his "break" was actually a fracture and not as bad as a clean break would make it out. I'm just concerned because I've read that clavicles can take 12 weeks to heal, how do these guys come up with 4-6 weeks?

You have the needed depth at RB cause McFadden first round is a hell of a gamble. Cook is a nice sleeper.
I always like drafting at the end of the round
TheMalcolmConnection 08-13-2012, 03:30 PM How do most of your leagues do scoring? This year I dropped TDs to 4 points because I was getting annoyed at TD vultures. I added bonuses for topping 100, 150 and 200 yards for RB/WR and for throwing certain numbers for QBs as well. This way you get rewarded for great performances versus people like Jacobs who used to have 5 yards and 3 TDs.
