Scumleague FF 2015 (Locke, Yiley, TD37!)

[D3f3nd3r]

/in if you don't mind autodrafters. A year of FFB experience.

EDIT: Where would I find the Yahoo page for any/all of last year's leagues?

[D3f3nd3r]

Also, remind me, is Yahoo default PPR?

[D3f3nd3r]

I would love to FAAB it, but I think that doesn't really fit this league as much as it would the auction league.

[D3f3nd3r]

No invite yet...is it being sent to the email that I registered with?

[D3f3nd3r]

I would love to try to do them geographically, but I don't know how practical that is.

[D3f3nd3r]

Even what you did last year would have been great.

Also - is it a straight draft (1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3) or a snake draft (1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1)?

[D3f3nd3r]

"Eleventh and eleventh again, what are the odds?!"

FTFY

[D3f3nd3r]

I'm relatively happy with where I am. First time not autodrafting in fantasy football though, so who knows? Am I in a good spot? We'll see.

[D3f3nd3r]

Pick players with big numbers for stats. Yahoo should try to help you; knowledge of how football is played comes over time.

[D3f3nd3r]

(Get in the draft room dominator)

[D3f3nd3r]

It has us playing our division weeks 2, 8, 9, and the last three.

[D3f3nd3r]

Uh...based on your location that would put you at the draft 20 minutes early though (unless the intermission is like half an hour)?

[D3f3nd3r]

Guys I have Aaron Rodgers but my QB position isnt a strength.

I fucking love draft grades.

I have Rothlisberger in the third league and it's telling me I need to pick up Mariota on waivers to replace him. I'm sorry, why are you so bad, Yahoo?

[D3f3nd3r]

Me. Best of luck to you in the rematch (Yes, I know the Bills cut him. I don't actually care.)

[D3f3nd3r]

I wonder how much of my FAAB budget I should use for James Jones in my auction league. Don't want to overreact or anything

Cobb's only going to get more and more targets as the season goes on, he was a bit limited yesterday because of shoulder issues, and James Jones shouldn't get this much in future games.

[D3f3nd3r]

Bleh, half a game to play and it's going to come down to the wire.

[D3f3nd3r]

Buffalo defense is doing terribly. The annoying part about that is how it's actually not the defense's fault.

[D3f3nd3r]

My game will be close

Don't worry, I'll probably lose again because I started the wrong defense

[D3f3nd3r]

My game will be close

Don't worry, I'll probably lose again because I started the wrong defense

Nah as always you will have the most points and I will have the second most

Admittedly, I hope so But I would have had a full EIGHTEEN more points had I started Cincy. I figured that since the Bills did well against Luck, they would against Brady - I was wrong...

[D3f3nd3r]

Rob I thought Buffalo's defense was a lot better than Cleveland's. Guess I was wrong. Still, all those bench points aren't enough to beat you so let's just hope that Oakland-Baltimore shootout continues, leading to 60 points for Forsett and Cooper lol.

So much more of it is that Cleveland is playing the Titans, who have Mariota playing his first game ever against an NFL quarterback (Winston last week doesn't count). Buffalo was against a guy who's been in the league long enough to have a scandal against him for deflating footballs!

[D3f3nd3r]

Maybe I'm just playing favorites, I had Luck last season in the league I played - he and Gronk were the two things that separated me from my 8-6 finish and going 1-13 because of my abysmal running and receiving.

[D3f3nd3r]

Looks like we've got a really close game coming - and it could very well be between the top two for the week :S

[D3f3nd3r]

So now I'm looking for a quarterback if anyone is wanting to trade! I'd consider trading pretty much anyone that is not Gronkowski or Sanders.

And if yahoo didn't randomly decide to bench my kicker, I might have won this week.

Tell whoever our commish is, it can't be anything other than a mistake. Pretty sure he can manually get added back to your active roster.

[D3f3nd3r]

Don't worry, this was pretty much how it went for me last week. Then Hyde put up fucking thirty and I lost.

[D3f3nd3r]

A blank from white and 1 point from graham :/

Another three quarters from your Jets WRs and you'll have my by fifteen points and prove further to me that I'm actually an idiot for starting the Bills.

[D3f3nd3r]

Nope, you've got me pretty easily. Fuck the Jets (even though a small part of me that actually cares about them is happy) for costing me two straight weeks.

[D3f3nd3r]

Bleh, second-most points in the league but tenth place in record.

Also, looking to trade Flacco in L3 for a WR.

[D3f3nd3r]

Seriously though, fuck the Jets doing well. I'm a Jets fan IRL, but thanks to them I'm 0-2 (they killed my defense last week, and Decker/the other guy this week.

Mith this week, hopefully Luck has another sucky week!

[D3f3nd3r]

I'm on a two-week streak where had I started my other defense, I would have won as opposed to losing.

[D3f3nd3r]

League 3 Results:

TD37's Team def. IK Enemkpali's Fist, 113.20-106.26
Jahudo's Jaguars def. Cutler's Last Stand, 106.52-85.18
Geno's Broken Jaw def. Gambling Apocalypse, 88.32-77.50
SharonD's Team def. Birmingham Stallions, 81.54-77.14
Zalderic's Team def. Reindeer, 73.30-70.80
Once on a Blue Moon def. Yuriko's Adorable, 93.80-70.66

Division 1: Jahudo's Jaguars 2-0; SharonD's Team, Cutler's Last Stand, Birmingham Stallions 1-1
Division 2: Once on a Blue Moon 2-0; TD37's Team 1-1; IK Enemkpali's Fist and Yuriko's Adorable 0-2
Division 3: Geno's Broken Jaw 2-0; Reindeer and Zalderic's Team 1-1; Gambling Apocalypse 0-2

[D3f3nd3r]

Yeah, one wild card advances. That will be anyone given the number 4 as their ranking.

[D3f3nd3r]

Good news I picked the right defense, bad news Big Ben looks hurt. Bad.

If it turns out he's out for a while, looking to trade away a WR for a QB in L3.

[D3f3nd3r]

Not to mention I've got the most points for through three weeks but only a 1-2 record to show for it.

Same here...it's pretty frustrating for me...

[D3f3nd3r]

Flacco remembering the fact that he's actually a good quarterback when he tries. More rushing TDs from him so far this week than any week prior by the entirety of my team.

[D3f3nd3r]

[D3f3nd3r]

Just hoping Le'Veon can pick up the eighteen points Yahoo expects him to get

[D3f3nd3r]

I just can't win anything that comes down to the last day...

[D3f3nd3r]

Now I know it worked for them but WHY DIDNT THE STEELERS KICK

Probably the most pissed I'll ever be at one of MY players getting a touchdown.

[D3f3nd3r]

Someone should just prod Yuriko, she's active onsite...

[D3f3nd3r]

Then why sign up?

We tried to help you out and we got ignored.

[D3f3nd3r]

Not collusion = make the trade. Even if it's shit for one of the two.

[D3f3nd3r]

as defender is not in your league and he is commenting

I will state I agree with nero and would also be rejecting

I just stated my philosophy, I only skimmed the actual discussion

[D3f3nd3r]

And it turns out Cobb's being useless again is going to put me at 2-4 and probably end my season.

[D3f3nd3r]

And that's another loss...around 10th in the standings despite probably being top 3 in point total.

[D3f3nd3r]

True but there are six teams there. Only one at .500, 4 2-4s, and Yuriko's Inactive at 1-5. If Sharon beats me, then yeah, this season is over. 2-5 is too big a hole.

[D3f3nd3r]

Lamar Miller on a damn TEAR right now. Over 230 yards and two TD and it isn't even halftime yet.

[D3f3nd3r]

Abysmal week for me, but then again it's inactive week so I really don't care?

[D3f3nd3r]

I thought there was a limit of one MCL tear per fantasy team per year. Clearly not.

[D3f3nd3r]

IS isn't going to clear 40 points this week. Ouch.

Yuriko's week ended at 17.78. 17.78! And this isn't some convoluted one-point-per-TD league!

[D3f3nd3r]

I know. It's still disheartening though considering she had Rodgers and Lynch.

[D3f3nd3r]

Keenan too? Fuck me.

[D3f3nd3r]

Also: League 3 ETEW scores: (Record, points for)

IK Enemkpali's Hospital - 50-38 (4-4, 797)
Yuriko's Adorable - 6-82 (1-7, 455)
Birmingham Stallions - 55-33 (6-2, 833)
Jahudo's Jaguars - 37-51 (3-5, 700)
TD39's Team - 62-26 (6-2, 825)
Geno's Broken Jaw - 32-56 (3-5, 632)
SharonD's Team - 49-39 (3-5, 763)
Gambling Apocalypse - 50-38 (3-5, 756)
Cutler's Last Stand - 46-42 (5-3, 751)
Zalderic's Team - 42-46 (4-4, 763)
Once on a Blue Moon - 49-39 (5-3, 734)
Reindeer - 50-38 (5-3, 761)

[D3f3nd3r]

I can't fucking catch a break, Ben is out a few weeks and now I have to rely on Flacco. IK Enemkpali's Hospital.

[D3f3nd3r]

Welcome back to "D3f's Season Falls Down the Drain Because He Can't Pick Defenses"

[D3f3nd3r]

Welcome back to "D3f's Season Falls Down the Drain Because He Can't Pick Defenses"

This year hasn't been kind for defense matchup playing.

My first game I picked the wrong team because "I have no faith in the Jets to score!"

This week I picked the wrong team because "I have no faith in the Jets to not score!"

[D3f3nd3r]

Ugh. 23 up with only AJ Green left for my opponent. A loss here probably ends my season or comes very close to doing so. Which sucks because I've lost every time this has happened so far.

[D3f3nd3r]

All those points on my bench, damn!

It'll be straight up Bengals D vs. Eifert. Not looking great, and doubt I can afford to lose any week going forward if I have any hope of making the playoffs, especially with mith winning this week.

Go Axxle! Keep the people in my division from winning so I can maybe hopefully get a wild card!

[D3f3nd3r]

Oh hey, another ligament. Screw this.

[D3f3nd3r]

Oh hey, another ligament. Screw this.

Roethlisberger
Bell
McCluster
Flacco

Actually.

[D3f3nd3r]

If L3 results hold, we'll have a five-minute tie at 5-6 going into the divisional games.

[D3f3nd3r]

Oh hey, another ligament. Screw this.

Roethlisberger
Bell
McCluster
Flacco

Actually.

And Reed. Three this week.

[D3f3nd3r]

I need Gronk to come up big to put me a game up on Agar.

no you don't. game will be MINE!

As long as he, Amendola, and their Defense combine for less than 17...

[D3f3nd3r]

Made it to the fourth quarter and it's still theoretically possible without any fumbles lost by the opposition!

Edit 30 seconds later: Nope, gone.

[D3f3nd3r]

Eleven players are within two games of a playoff spot with three games to go in L3.

Also:

Birmingham Stallions clinches his division this week with a win and a Cutler's Last Stand loss.
TD37 clinches his division this week with a win and a Once on a Blue Moon loss (or a playoff spot with a win and a Gambling Apocalypse loss).
Reindeer clinches his division this week with a win and a Gambling Apocalypse loss (or a playoff spot with a win and a Once on a Blue Moon loss).

Jahudo is eliminated from playoff contention with a loss and a Once on a Blue Moon win or a Gambling Apocalypse win. No other player (save Yuriko's Inactive) can be eliminated from playoff contention this week.

[D3f3nd3r]

I'd hate to win on TD37 failing to start an active kicker, but a win is a win.

[D3f3nd3r]

Need 17.1 points out of Benjamin tomorrow. It's possible, but without it I can't make any mistakes and will need help to advance to the playoffs.

EDIT: He's their #1 WR now that their top two going into the season are both out with concussions. If ever there was a week to make this happen, that week is now.

[D3f3nd3r]

Well that's a really shitty way to lose, needing a missed FG to get to overtime but the FG getting blocked and returned for a TD to end the game regardless.

[D3f3nd3r]

I needed OT in one of my leagues. Needed 7 more points from Travis Benjamin

I only needed one Goodbye season.

[D3f3nd3r]

In the NBA divisions don't do anything.

[D3f3nd3r]

Also Lamora what site are you using for the league predictions?

I like divisions as entities to determine who plays who when, but not to determine who makes playoffs.

[D3f3nd3r]

I'm sitting at a 11.2% chance of surviving the week right now and being in playoff contention with a week to play.

[D3f3nd3r]

Please no short benches.

I even dislike the size of this bench - probably mostly because my league last year used nine bench slots plus an IR.

[D3f3nd3r]

Why does my team suck

[D3f3nd3r]

I'm probably screwed because Axxle is going to outscore me like crazy and I'll have to beat him by like 80 next week.

[D3f3nd3r]

And that's the season.

[D3f3nd3r]

Eagles defense for Yuriko scores TWENTY-NINE. Highest scoring Defense probably at any point all season.

Go

Team D3f

Jets!

[D3f3nd3r]

Going into the last week in League 3...

TD37 has clinched his division.
Reindeer has not clinched his division, but has clinched a playoff spot.
Axxle takes a playoff slot so long as DeathNote doesn't score 50 points more than he does (and he clinches it with a win).
Bert clinches the playoff spot with a win or a SharonD loss that outscores him by 17 or more.

Zalderic's Team, Geno's Broken Jaw, Five Injured MCLs, and Yuriko's Adorable have no chance at a playoff spot.
Jahudo's Jaguars and Cutler's Last Stand are effectively eliminated unless they outscore Bert by 90 points.

[D3f3nd3r]

Fantasy Football: literally just betting on number of hospital visits your team takes!

[D3f3nd3r]

You're expected to try so that you're not sitting there and taking the spot from someone who does want to play.

[D3f3nd3r]

Put Ginn on the bench right before he started. Regret

[D3f3nd3r]

If L3 projections hold, the playoff spots go to:

1: TD37
2: Axxle
3: Mith
4: Bert

And the consolation bracket, since that's the one thing I care about:
5: SharonD
6: DeathNote
7: D3f3nd3r
8: Aronis OR Jahudo OR Pablito I think

[D3f3nd3r]

you were 8 with 5-8 and 1145 ptf
khan was 9 with 5-8 and 1141 ptf

you are both winning your games

khan currently has highest score this week of 114.90. You currently have 88.50 this week with Lamar miller left. He needs to get you about 22. Lamar did get a 35 something earlier in season so he could save you

Looking good for Lamar. 19 points and we're only halfway there.

[D3f3nd3r]

I'm just sitting here hoping I can win L3 consolation. If I do, I'm second priority to move up to L2.

[D3f3nd3r]

The rankings officially show up as the consolation finishes.

[D3f3nd3r]

Dammit, I forgot that I picked up a streamer defense, forgot to play it, and there we go fumble recovery touchdown in the first two minutes. Shit.

[D3f3nd3r]

Close matchup for the winner in L3. Mith's last player, Jeremy Hill, needs 10.2 for him to take the Championship.

I'm screwed unless Sanders and Jones combine for less than 1.6 because Ben shit the bed.
