My loss to you was only loss where I started the wrong players. My other losses, I didn't really have a chance either because my opponents team went nuts or my team had an off weak. I have won my work league and other leagues in past, but this is best team I have had in our leagues so I'm rather pleased. Figured it would be good to welcome T-bone to the bracket where we don't play week 16 or 17When I joined this site, I was a software tester for mobile business applications and the song PokerFace was not yet written by Lady Gaga

There was no way I'd have started Henry when he was averaging 3 points a game, while White and Saquon were averaging double digits. And the Jags still managed to give up some of the fewest fantasy points to RBs despite sucking.In post 595, PokerFace wrote:
1 more win like the one i should have got over Panzer, and I would have too. You could have also started Henry, to avoid joining me in my bracket. Here we will have a Browns fan playing a Ravens fan. While in real nfl the Browns vs Ravens play in week 17, and there may be some major playoff implications should Pitt keep losingT-Bone wrote:1 point and I would have had a bye instead of this disaster...
(I still think those in Consolation Bracket for 7-10 should have had their first round last week and second round this week. So they would not play week 16 or 17. As things stand, T-bone and I won't play week 16, but everyone else will. That doesn't make a lot of sense.)-

Congratulations to Bro for making it into the L3 finals. I think that regardless of whether he beats me or not he's guaranteed a spot in L1. I'd like to thank Snakes and Auto? for playing and all our dupers for playing in two leagues.Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

gg PEG. Your team was very beatable this week and I'm a little salty I intended to start Damien Williams over Gus Edwards but forgot to check before the Thursday game. Would have given me 7.90 more points and I lost by 6.34
more upset Barkley ghosted me when I thought we had such a strong relationship the past few months </3-

L3 doesn't promote directly to L1 this year (because of the dupes and overall reduced player count). I posted the promotion/relegation order earlier in the thread.In post 604, Nero Cain wrote:Congratulations to Bro for making it into the L3 finals.

You should really be thanking mith/yahoo for your schedule there. Playing in less games than Sharron gives you weakest schedule overall nowPanzerjager wrote:I'd like to thank all the scrubs in league 2 for letting me get promoted

Yes, thanks for my draft position where I traded or dropped all but 2 players of my draft.
Yes, thank yahoo for giving me the perfectly crafted schedule of dudes who can't pick the right players than cried about it.
Especially thank the guy who got Todd Gurley and was too dumb to scrap together more than 4 wins.Last edited by PJ. on Fri Dec 21, 2018 1:04 pm, edited 2 times in total.Sometimes a sandwich is just a sandwich.-

How different would you say it is to draft 7th vs drafting 8th in a 10 man league?
I drafted 7th while you drafted 8th. I had highest regular season point total and EPE. Only 6 of my 15 remaining roster were not guys I drafted. Less than 1/2. I'm pleased with the team I picked

KMD drafted 9th while you drafted 8th. KMD has second highest point total and second best EPE. I don't think draft position is really something you should be angry at.

And we were separated by 15 points over the course of 13 games because you couldn't capitalize on your advantage. Even if I had defenders schedule, I still would of made playoffs, and he failed to despite having Gurley and the bears. Goon city.
7 vs 8 is pretty huge cause it separated who got a top tier running back and who did not.
I also made a mistake that I shouldn't of, cause I wasnt doing it in mocks, but I went odb over Hopkins like a goof. Luckily I got value out of hilton/Mixon as well as trading julio.
KMD got hosed in the draft too, but he, like me, basically got his whole team on waivers/trades. He got hopkins, he got lucky on mahomes(even though he wasted a slot on watson (early too). Draft order is huge, but luckily for me, kmd, and dominator, the rest of you didn't do anything in waivers. Also on kmd being ahead of me, he's up there cause I'm a fucking idiot. I was ahead in waivers and took Sutton over Cooper. But it happens. Sometimes i a play bad. But the difference is most of you are goons that didn't stop anyone from picking up waivers.
6 running backs and the goon who always picks brown, so I'd say 1-6 are the best, in w/e order (just had pray you didn't get bell) then 7 (cause you probably got lucky and got a runner) then 8, 9 , 10 are all comparable. I think I like 10 more than 8. 8-9 similarly bad, and we both had to rebuild our entire team basically.Sometimes a sandwich is just a sandwich.-

You would have gone 6-7 if you had my schedule, which would only have gotten you into the playoffs with the sixth seed because you owned the tiebreaker over Wraith by about 25 points. Not a single team in the league would have had a winning record playing my schedule.“The assumption of good faith is dead”

Given my team, I didn't need to get 1/2 many players as you. So my waiver position and how I could have made pickups to effect yours, isn't something I think applies. Having a good rb round 1 doesn't mean you don't need to worry about your other players. You picked before me in 1/2 the rounds, so I am kinda missing some of your argument.
Only mistakes I feel I made were getting rid of cooper and cook. Gruden is kinda an unpredictable guy. What he has done to the raiders is bad. Mack and Cooper are better off.
The 6 person playoff we had was a bit excessive. Six out of 10 shouldn't make playoffs. The odds of a team with a loosing record making the playoffs should be lower than it was. I think I'd rather have no divisions with 10 teams. Only if we go back to 12 players, should we have divisions.
Regardless of player amount in our league, I still think a playoff like what I described here: viewtopic.php?p=10608405#p10608405 is a great idea to use in the future even if it would shorten the regular season to 13 weeks. We had 13 weeks this season, I think that's fineLast edited by PokerFace on Sat Dec 22, 2018 3:32 pm, edited 2 times in total.-

Cooper and cook on my roster instead of kmd's wins me round 1 of playoff. Would have also got me another win to get better seeding, so yay I think that's it. I am rather happy with how things went regardless.
The player that got Bell made the playoffs and draft picks 6-10 made the playoffs in our league. KMD picked 9th and got Kareem hunt round 1. You had a shot at the same player since you picked 8th round 1. I'd count Hunt as a top RB even with how his season ended. Melvin Gordon was also still on the board since he got picked 11th so there's another top rb that was still available, so your point earlier about not having a shot at a top rb is further mute.When I joined this site, I was a software tester for mobile business applications and the song PokerFace was not yet written by Lady Gaga

Hunt was the rb yard leader in 2017 so I figured he would be good this year. He was top 10 before his mistake got him out of the league
