Fantasy Football

All you suckers can bow down to the champion of our fantasy football league! I beat Offord in the finals, which means he is probably kicking himself for not sitting his guys against Singer to eliminate me from the playoffs.

Also, Kern, who at the bar informed me that he did not even look at my team after the draft because it did not matter since he would win the league. Well I guess you were wrong on that one.

Actually, it was fun this year, and I actually paid attention to my team all year instead of just giving up. Now I am ready to kick some ass at baseball!

Congrats. Your team came on really strong in the end. If it had been for money I may have been more tempted to eliminate you when I had the chance...

Yes...I've been meaning to congratulate you on your fantasy football "prowess" this year. I was really surprised you won, but the season starts over in the playoff, it doesn't matter if you just make it late in the season. I had a terrible fantasy football season overall this year. Out of 5 teams owned this year, I had 1 second place finish, two third place finishes, and in my two money leagues, the ones I was really hoping to do well in...I made the playoffs in one, which was Dunkins league in annapolis, but came in fifth place, one spot ahead of offord, and in my big league with the 200 dollar buy in, I finished dead last. My entire roster was decimated with injuries all season and I never had a healthy line up, and it really pissed me off. This league doesn't have playoffs, it's more of a rotisserie style league that just goes through until the end of week 17, with the winner of each week getting $100 and then the top 3 split the big pot at the end of the season.

I just had my fantasy playoff draft last night, and I think I'm pretty happy with the results. I'm going to post the rules and all 6 teams on another post on here and I would like your guys opinions. And gideon I wish you would have been in our league too because it would have been awesome to watch you bow down once again as you tasted bitter defeat after bitter defeat all season. Maybe next year we can try to organize a genuine league through yahoo?? 20 bucks a pop or something...lemme know what you guys think.

Congrats again josh...it seems even blind squirrels can find a nut.

This fantasy season was kind and then cruel to me. I went a perfect 6 for 6 in making the playoffs, including 3 money leagues. BUT, only won 1 league, which was non-pay, and did not even finish in the money for any of the pay ones. At least I get $30 for high scores in Kev's league...

I think we should make the baseball league monetary.

I know you guys are thinking that no one will do it then, but we keep the same people, and whoever wants to put money in can, so if just offord, kern, gideon, and I put money, we just compete amongst each other...

Agreed. Name your stakes. However, I think I should get a handicap since I came in last in nearly all of my fantasy baseball leagues last year. Oh, and what was the final decision on unlimited transactions per week?
