Keeper League '11

[rjs246]

No.

Barring a ridiculous 30 point game from Jimmy Graham, I will secure my league leading 5th "biggest blowout" of the season.  I'm starting to feel bad about how I destroy you bitches.  How the hell I lost to Sunny's group of waiver wire injury replacements last week is still beyond me. 

And Chuggie will beat Russell tonight with his kicker being the high point producer on his team.   

[rjs246]

Your trash talk makes no sense. Go Jimmy Graham.

When we're tied for 1st place tomorrow, maybe we can spoon?   

[rjs246]

Mayhaps.

arejayess is losing today, meaning I will sweep the season series...yet miss playoffs and end up drafting in the middle of the board. Yay my life!

[Sgt PSN]

Mayhaps.

That's a solid posilitely, right?

So I'm killing time by dicking around on our keeper league page and I clicked on the "Toyota Fantasy Football Hall of Fame" in the top right corner of the league home page.  I've noticed it this year but never opened it, so I figured I'd see what it was about.  I wish I hadn't looked.  They're actually putting together a HOF for fantasy nerds and they have 10 guys up there from random yahoo! leagues.  These guys actually wrote essays and recorded videos telling why they should be elected to the HOF.  Is this a new thing or have they been doing it for a while now and I just never noticed?

Anyway, the point is that it's harder to cite a bigger example of why breeding should be strictly regulated than these clowns.

Jesus farging christ, that's awful.

I'm actively rooting for THawk to come in last place so I can win the league this year AND have the top pick next year. Your win over me, which is likely, feeds into this hilarious dream scenario.

This season has some head scratching shtein going on. 

Dio has lost 2 games by less than 1 point combined.  I don't think I've ever seen 1 game end with less than a 1 point difference, let alone 2....in the same year.....by the same guy.
 
Chuggie has the worst fantasy roster I've ever seen and might beat the 1st place team twice in the same year.  And why did he waste roster spots on Peyton Manning and Delone Carter all year?     

Philly Crew traded away Matt Forte for draft picks and a rookie keeper who isn't worth starting right now and went on a 3 (about to be 4) game winning streak to pull himself out of the basement and get a solid grip on a playoff spot.

I think my team is being coached by Andy Reid this year.  I'm 6-1 (soon to be 7-1) vs teams with a sub .500 record and 1-3 vs teams above .500.  This might not bode well for me in the playoffs.

And why did he waste roster spots on Peyton Manning and Delone Carter all year?

It's a keeper league where we keep on rookie each year, so my bet would be that he intends to retain Peyton and Carter for next year. 

[Sgt PSN]

I get that....but you could drop Manning in September and pick him up on waivers in week 16 if you want to keep him.  Does he really have keeper value at this point? 

Chuggie is in an interesting spot with his rookies though since he has 3 on his team - Newton, Carter, Ingram. 

He could keep Newton as his QB next year and drop Manning.  Then he could keep Ingram over Jacobs as a RB keeper which still frees up his rookie spot for Carter.  He could be set for years if Ingram and Carter turn out to be any good.       

[Diomedes]

Nice job laying out the best plan for him.  God knows he'd have never thought of it himself.

[Sgt PSN]

I'm all for parity.  And since we don't have revenue sharing to help keep things even, I gotta throw some IQ points his way instead.
