It all comes down to this week. Its Superbowl time baby! Good luck Himat. May the best team (mine) win.
Looks like Jammer will win unless Reggie Brown can give me a 40 point night. No shows by most of my good players didn't help.
Based on himat's last post, yeah. Jammer won. Reggie Brown netted approximately 4 fantasy points. Himat needed 40 from him. Yep, nothing wrong with being the runner up. Great job, himat. Next year I plan to join. So enjoy your trophy while you have it Jam.
Yeah, but you had fun right? I bet if you could do over, you would fare much better. Your first fantasy season is usually a wash unless you get fanatical about following it. I was really pleased to place middle of the pack in a baseball league after not following the game for the last 5 years. Realistic expectations!
Thanks Tater!!!! Looking forward to it. Starting out with all those Qbs really put you behind the 8 ball. You did well with your pick ups after that. Now that you have a feel for it (and are familiar with the rules and roster settings), I'm sure you'll do much better than Millen next season. I had blast. I really enjoy fantasy sports and the guys make it even better. I've never had an issue. Thanks #1.

Looking at his team, you can see he won with all luck. Why would you draft Gore and keep Vick and two Card recievers?
Luck? Is that what I get for trying to put a positive spin on your last place finish? Actually, I didn't draft Gore, I picked him up as a free agent before the very first preseason game. Good thing I did, since he ended up with the 6th highest point total of all RBs. But I guess that was luck. I picked up Marion Barber III for depth around mid season, and he finished with the 11th highest point total. McGahee was a bit of a disappoinment for me, although he missed 2.5 games to injury and still finished at 25. LT was the 3rd overall pick. He had a monster season. Vick finished with the 5th highest points for a QB, again, I got lucky. I also had Trent Green, but I lost him in the first game of the season. I had 4 WRs in the top 25. Driver at 5, Furrey at 17 (picked up Oct 1), and the "two Card receivers" finished 20 (Boldin) and 24 (Fitzgerald - who by the way, missed 3 games). Of my 2 TEs Cooley finished 7th and Watson 11th. Graham was the 5th best kicker. I had the 4th (New England) and 10th (Jacksonville) best D's. Overall, I had the 2nd most points in the league, only 20.82 behind Himat. But unlike Himat and the Pistons of last year, I peaked at the right time. I rode a season high 5 game winning streak all the way to Disneyland baby! Heck, if that's luck, I'll take it!
Thanks himat. It was a bit of a low scoring matchup for both sides. You had a heck of a year. You were looking unbeatable for a good portion of the season. I'd take you over Millen anyday.:P
If I remember right my puter was on the fritz back then, I couldn't pick up any hot players. I drafted Ron Dayne...he didn't score until the last 3 games of the season. I also drafted TJ Duckett he was good for a 3.25 rating.
