Indeed my faith in Mostert was misplaced, I really wanted Monty there iirc but he got nabbed right before me and i thought Achane would get injured with a a full workload. so indeed you nailed the specific error of my draft.
I thought it was a gamble but I seriously didnt think it could tank my season!
*also to be fair I think just about every big player has had his career game against me this season, not making excuses just saying.

The truth is I am not really that good, it is just I have been incredibly lucky this season, during the first round of our draft the 3 RBs I wanted were picked before my turn, at the time I was thinking about picking Henry, but at the end I decided to go for Barkley, and when the second round came I was surprised to see Henry still on the board, so I immediately picked him, which simplified the management over my team, as other than their BYE weeks, I think I have played them on every single match.

Besides there is at least 3 additional games I should have lost but won, the last 2 matches against Dire and nutildah, which I won by the smallest margin on each week coming from behind, and the match against seek3r, in which I did 6 movements just on that week alone and I nailed them all, otherwise I would have lost.

Brutal draft day projections, projections you've already shattered with 3 total wins ...yeah that Raheem Mostert 3rd round pick will haunt you.

Here's what Yahoo's current projections look like:

Looks cool, thanks for the kind words, you must be drinking.

You did a great job overcoming adversity this year and if you win you certainly deserve to wear that ring!



I've got that spot locked up!

I feel like i'm in as long as my team gets a win in the next four weeks, one would suffice.

Two of the 5-6 teams would then need to win four out of four to knock me out of the playoffs (which i find improbable) since i have the second-highest Points For tiebreaker. I don't see how my 100-160 point lead can be reduced given the fact that i have more than decent matchups till the end of the regular fantasy season with no bye-week headaches.

Realistically, we are looking at only one playoff spot available.

The let the record be known I'm a staunch independent who despises woke culture. I just don't let it bother me as much as others do.  That said, If you lived in the US, you might have a deeper appreciation of what native Americans had to endure.  It's ugly.  But human history is ugly.  was talking to a very close friend recently, his grandparents fought in WW2 as Nazi officers w/the Axis powers, and I recently just discovered my great grandfather did as well, and axis fighter on the Italian front.  We both are sickened by our ancestral pasts and the paths they took,but so were they (our grandparentsa).  Most forced to do what they were told, as per usual...so if calling the the commanders (the worst name eve a team could come up with lmao ), and it makes people feel better, so be eat.  Thos who it bothers, well , suck a dick and ove on for god sakes.  Why let it ruin your day..that's just my two..

So I lost Godwin, Rice,CMC half the season, and still hanging in there...should be a great finish guys! 

Another solidly ran year by our fearless leader, the one and only Hueristic...honest and fair, open to discussion, and someone I've come to respect quite a bit   Cheers to many more years under your leadership bud ..

That said, would anyone object to me offering the league winner this prize?   (I'm up late, been sick as a dog, sleeping on and off for days, maybe I've already promised this?  Hell, I need to sign off line lol...so here's pics, talk to ya'll manana.

What is everyone's prediction on, I will listen to @ChiBitCTy and begin to call them the Commanders, the Cowpersons vs. the Commanders? I also do not want to offend the feminists hehehe. In any case yes, did the oddsmakers make the correct estimation on giving the Commanders -10.5 against the spread? I reckon this is very much a overestimation.

Also, what are your predictions on the Ravens against the Chargers? Why is this only +2.5 against the spread on the Chargers? This might be another overestimation, I reckon. Will you agree that this should be +6?

Congrats South Park, you really are terrible at Fantasy Football!!! Lol

Thanks for being positive. Fantasy is a lot harder than it looks, it's not as simple as pick a bunch of good players and you will win. I'm getting better with each year and using the waivers a lot more than last year, slowly learning.

You're only one win behind a playoff spot, and have a lot of points for a tie breaker.

Speaking of playoffs, South Park has clinched a spot, so there's only 3 spots remaining, 2 really because I don't think Chi can be knocked out.

Bengals making a comeback and showing some much needed defense in this 2nd half. Burrow has caught fire as well and found the end zone twice now. 1 touchdown game now and looking a lot more competitive. Too bad i'm a mile behind in the fantasy, these TDs are helping but I still got no shot lol.

The Chargers and Justin Herbert are presently making the game appear to be very effortless for them. Has the team began to understand their new coach's tactics and strategies or did they coach change something in his playbook? They have been throwing more balls than they have before their bye week. They will play against Lamar and the Ravens next week.

On the Ravens vs. the Steeler, another divisional game where the underdog has won. This was a very important game for the Ravens and it appears that there will be more pressure on their next game hehe. The Chargers might win.

Ugh, you have no idea.  This is the story of my life.  I have had one of the worst days in a long time today, and shit being thrown at me from every different angle, and the one lone bright spot, okay we aren't very good but Shane Walderon is gone, the offense is already looking better, sure Caleb made some real easy throws look like shit but at least we are going to finally beat the fucking Packers. 

I should have know better.  lol.  Hope all ya'lls weekend is going better than mine.  Enjoy your evening guys/gals

Starts with that useless coach man. They are loaded for weapons and after firing the offensive coordinator last week they looked decent on offense this week. Caleb had 1 of his best games of the season today IMO. Green Bay played like ass and got lucky to block that FG at the end.

Funny thing is I played Taysom and sat Kraft on my other two teams and noticed he was on the bench facing me, so he was literally in all my matches this week.


Personally I don't think any player with a QB designation should be able to be played in any other position.

Yooo, what is this? Haha....dude plays QB, RB, TE, and PR...question is can he kick field goals too? Lol

I was able to catch a few of his touchdowns on RedZone earlier today, good for me since i was facing Kamara in multiple leagues. 

nutildah may regret not starting him in place of the injured Kittle. It's likely to cost them the week, or worse, jeopardize their chances of making the playoffs.

Real talk, Bears are a cursed team. 

Jerry Jones is quickly becoming the joke of the NFL. Guy has no clue how to operate the football team and needs to step down as General Manager. His legacy is going be him being the laughing stock of the league. Players just come to Dallas because they know Jerry will pay top dollar, team isn't about winning anymore.

Jerry Jones currently hamming it up with the announcers at AT&T Stadium, two fights away from the Paul/Tyson fight. I think he's happy to be there because the Cowboys can't lose today.  

If I am honest I am surprised I could get this win, you got a lot of points with Hurts, while I struggled to pick a decent QB or D from FA, things were so bad the Rams had like one yard of total offense at the middle of the 2nd quarter, and at that point I just gave up on our match and I just watched the game, it was not until the game finished and I checked the result I realized I got the win.

Tough loss for me this week.  I feel pretty confident with my team still, but losing Rice then Godwin was just such a tough blow, worried it might completely wreck me in the end.  Guess we shall see.



If it offensive (which it is) then why not just call them by their current name?  I mean I'm not sure it what way it hurts you to call them by their new name?  I don't have a problem with this.  I mean immigrants came in to the US and wiped most of the native Americans off the map, so things like this, I believe they deserve.
