T-Bone, I'm sorry man. Megatron, y'know how he can be.
Also. Thank fucking GOD I did not start Romo today. That would've been catastrophic.Ski mask? Check! Sawed off? Check! Guilty conscience, fear of death? Check! Check! Check!

Mith dropped Romo week 3 or 4 this year in league 2. I picked up romo last week because all I got is Bortles and Luck. And Luck won't be back until week 15 at the earliest. As thats not a very good situation, I grabbed romo as another QB option. I didn't start him today as I figured Carolina defense could give romo a rough time today compared to the chargers who are gonna loose to Jacksonville. I had no idea carolina would be that rough on romo. I too am glad I didn't start himWhen I joined this site, I was a software tester for mobile business applications and the song PokerFace was not yet written by Lady Gaga
Now I test lottery and gambling software as my job. It's funny how my life has turned out. Somewhere a Time Traveler is laughing madly-

I honestly can't blame you for this decision. It sucks for you in hindsight, but I would not get bent out of shape over it
As Romo is now out for the season I'll be dropping him for someone, not sure who. As he is on my bench I think I can drop him today without having to wait until tuesday as long as guy I want is not on waviers already.
@Wraith,was that why you were mad at me, for getting Romo? Were you trying to get him too? I didn't grab him so you couldn't. That would have be a dick move. There's no way I know of to tell who is trying to grab who off waivers. Also I wanted another QB option and it was pretty obvious what I was thinking about getting awhile ago

If you really wanted romo you could have grabbed him when mith put romo on waivers when he went down the first time. He has been on the market for everyone for awhile so you could have grabbed him a long time ago. I kinda wish you had grabbed him and started him now given how well carolina took the ball off him yesterday. I am willing to bet you ain't mad at me any more if romo was the reasonWhen I joined this site, I was a software tester for mobile business applications and the song PokerFace was not yet written by Lady Gaga

I'm notmad, I'm joke-mad. I wanted to grab Romo since Flacco died last week but my first place status kills my waiver priority. When I noticed you were sitting on three QBs I assumed you were squatting to screw over other teams lol, so I shook my fist in mock anger.

Waiver priority is not decided by place its decided by when you last grabbed someone. You were last because you used it the week before on someone. Not because you were in first place.
I don't consider having 3 QB's a dick move. Especially when Luck doesn't even count as 1/2 a QB since he only will play 2 out of the remaining 5 weeks. Only way I think it would have been a dick move would have been if I could somehow know who was waiting on romo and grabbed him just so they couldn't.

Panzer's setup has been unset basically every week. IMO, he should be automatically relegated as a result, regardless of final placing. With lots of people vying for League 1 space, it's silly to keep along someone who hasn't played.Last edited by Rob14 on Fri Nov 27, 2015 2:15 pm, edited 1 time in total.-

For reference, this in Panzer's missed lineup changes:
Week 3: DeMarco Murray left in, was out with injury.
Week 4: Andrew Luck left in, out with injury. Kicker left in, on Injured Reserve.
Week 5: Luck left in, still out with injury. Defense left in on BYE.
Week 8: DeMarco Murray left in on BYE.
Week 9: Keenan Allen left in, out with injury. Graham and Santos left in on BYE.
Week 11: Bradford left in, out with injury. Bryant left in, out on BYE.
Week 12: Bradford left in, out with injury.
So 12 slots with zeros from failing to set the lineup through 12 weeks. That's less than good.-

I just realized that theoretically, I can still win my division.
Also, I concur with Rob. Kinda bullshit, and especially when we're doing divisions and it does tilt the odds in a close battle in ones favor (mine in this case)Ski mask? Check! Sawed off? Check! Guilty conscience, fear of death? Check! Check! Check!

I agree, although I don't think it will matter - his points for are terrible and he's already well on his way to another loss. Maybe we should have a three strikes type policy specified in the future.
And yes, you can definitely win the division. Panzer isn't helping, but it's far from impossible.If ya smell what The Locke is cookin'!

wish I had started Inmanbut I think I still have a pretty good shot at winning this week since I still have my kicker, a running back and a wr slot to play this week.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.

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.“The assumption of good faith is dead”

So I think I just had one of the worst weeks in my life, or at least in a very long time.
-Definitely tore or strained a muscle in my own knee at work and can only get through the weekend through profligate use of painkillers
-Steelers lost stupidly
-Struck out of 3 Strikes Challenge
-Went negative in predictions
-Lost badly in both fantasy leagues
-Fourth major injury in paid fantasy league (Forte, Foster, Forsett, Gronk)
