Head-Case Fantasy Football

[Aura]

ESPN must be acting funky, that option was definitely accessible an hour ago in the 8-team.

[VPI]

Yeah, it was but I turned it off.  It gives the option to set up for keepers 2 years ahead of time.  We had discussed keepers so I had it turned on last season but since so many teams changed hands it  seemed like it was going to be problematic.

[VPI]

Are we trying to do some kind of hangout for the draft.  I am not sure I even remember how to log in to google+

[Aura]

Can just hang out in HC Chat.

[raffy]

There's a chat in the draft window, we can also chat there.

[MexicanDragon]

Jeff, if you ever check your Gmail, you can do a hangout. I didn't see this before tonight's draft, but before tomorrow's, if you're interested, LMK and I can set that up.

[Sherwood]

I'ma do my best to be present at the draft, but it's 9:45 AM my time, which is really the prime "interview Chinese people" time of my day.  In any case, I'll have reasonable autodraft guidelines set

[VPI]

Draft for League 2 is 9:15 EST tonight.  Does that work, or should I move it to 9:30?

[MoonShine]

Works for me.

[Aura]

ESPN's app fucking sucked last night. I had to autopick everything because the app continued to kick me out, claiming I was "logged in multiple times".

 

So anyway, my team isn't great but a few picks are alright so I guess I'll just work my way into it. 

[MoonShine]

I started getting an intermittent connection after about the 5th round so I got a lot of autopicks in the second half.

No big deal though, pretty happy with my roster.

[emelius]

sure hope that Manning kid lands on his feet in Denver...

[MexicanDragon]

Manning and Welker for a combined 89 points. I think that score would've won a couple games last season. Maybe this whole "not going with Cutler" wasn't a bad idea.

**BRENT**

[MoonShine]

HFS. That combo is going to be $$$ all year I think.

[Salt Peanuts]

I know it's too late, but just noticed two leagues are scoring DST differently.

[shellylh]

^That was also true last year

[emelius]

Hate starting w/a loss...Didn't figure on Trent & C.J. being my weak links...

[Aura]

How about Marshawn Lynch and MJD? At least I can claim responsibility for only MJD. Damn autopick on Lynch, I would never have went with him. 

 

I'm assuming I'm going to be 0-2 across the 2 leagues to start this, but I have a shot at winning in the 8-team league. 

[shellylh]

Damn autopick on Lynch, I would never have went with him. 

This! Not happy to have autodraft stick me with Lynch. I cannot believe I showed up at 8:30pm EDT (7:30pm CDT) thinking I had a half an hour before the start of the draft.

[VPI]

After the first two RB, there was not really much worth getting.  I think Lynch will end up being close to the top by the end of the season as there are not many decent top RBs this year.

 

My best team is going to lose because my top RB got negative points for me while my shitty League One team is blowing up with people I was not all that happy with when I drafted them.

[falkon]

I guess I'm not too familiar with PPR, especially with receivers at 10 yards per point but it seems that RBs are not worth much in this scoring system.  Perhaps it was an off week.  I think only Reggie Bush and AP were great.  I think most of the top 25 players were WRs or QBs.  If your WRs and QBs don't score 75 combined, you pretty much lose.  Also, I don't think you should ever flex a RB in this league.  Like ever.

[Salt Peanuts]

The RB position was rather thin this year so if you didn't pick up your RBs early in drafts, it can be painful.  PPR does offset that a bit, though.

[VPI]

Feels good to break 200 the first week in a 10 team league.

 

Don't expect that to be a common thing as the team is not as strong as it is showing this week.

[Salt Peanuts]

Tonight's game has been one of the worst games I've ever seen.
