Talking Poker 09-08-05 09:33 PM

My default is set up, but I want to swap Mike Anderson for Dominic Davis, and it won't let me....

You cannot make changes to your roster for this date. (Error #157)

WTF?

Aequitas58 09-08-05 09:37 PM

Let me check it out.

Aequitas58 09-08-05 09:39 PM

Right now, I can't even log on...

GeoffM 09-08-05 09:42 PM

Branch was an awesome pick.

GeoffM 09-08-05 09:46 PM

I can't even access the fantasy football homepage :( .

BlibbityBlabbity 09-08-05 09:56 PM

Very slow at times, other times it loads right up. Just keep trying.

Aequitas58 09-08-05 09:59 PM

Ok, I am able to log on.

Miscellany:

1. For some reason, I have live stats. Does anyone else?
2. TP, I'm not sure why you are getting the error message. I tried fooling around w/ my rosters, and everything seems to be working fine. :confused:
3. Branch IS a good pick. Too bad I have him benched.

Talking Poker 09-08-05 10:55 PM

It seems to be working for me now.

And yes, I see live stats.

BlibbityBlabbity 09-09-05 05:31 PM

So I saw on the site that it said "StatTracker" was an addon. The live stats on the team page "might" not be part of that. I hope not at least....

GeoffM 09-09-05 06:53 PM

The live stats are sweet, I hope they keep them.

lightfungus 09-09-05 08:32 PM

Sorry fellas, after being dissapointed last year with not even realizing the live stats weren't standard, I am here to tell you they are gone after week one. The way yahoo updates there system is usually around midnight PST Sunday night, then they add the monday night game Monday at midnight and finish off the week then. SOOOoooo, unless you are willing to pay 9.99 (up from 7.99 last year) there will be no live stats after monday. And I was hoping the commish could pay the 9.99 and get it for the league but nope just for one person.

Thats the only downfall about yahoo fantasy stuff, espn and nfl have live stats i believe but i kinda like yahoos setup. Im in 5 leagues so Ill let you know my final opinion on the different fantasy sites if anyone cares.

GeoffM 09-09-05 08:50 PM

Eh, it's not a big deal, when I'm watching the pigskin I normally do so without the computer in my face anyway.

GeoffM 09-11-05 03:20 PM

Reel's Jags has no defense?

Gordogg 09-11-05 03:50 PM

I'm new to fantasy football, a few questions. It looks like you still get points for players that are on the bench. Is that true? If so, what is the point of changing a player from the bench to starter? Do you get more value for the starter stats than the bench stats?

Talking Poker 09-11-05 03:54 PM

You don't get points for players on the beach. You have to start them.

Gordogg 09-11-05 04:05 PM

I just noticed that. It still tells me the points I would've gotten. Shoulda started Larry Johnson. I didn't think he'd be getting much playing time. Ah well...

Aequitas58 09-11-05 04:38 PM

Larry Johnson / Priest Holmes = RB by committee.

GeoffM 09-11-05 10:25 PM

Matt Stover has already cost me 6 points.

TP is still ahead by 4, damn I can't get over the hump and take the lead. The Ravens aren't going to Jailbird Lewis enough IMO.

BlibbityBlabbity 09-11-05 11:07 PM

nine... :rolleyes:

Gordogg 09-12-05 12:18 AM

Stover was off his game today. Scott Norwoodesque performance, althought this was the first game of the season, not the Super Bowl. I just released Olindo Mare if you want him. I debated on keeping him over Jason Hanson but I don't see the Dolphins putting up even half of 34pts a game for the season. Can't really say the Lions convinced me they will either, but they have so much talent I can't give up on them.

I picked up the Indianapolis defense to substitute for my sorry ass Houston defense. Why I drafted Houston, I don't know. Colts D looked impressive today, although they were playing against the weak ass Raven offense(except Jamal most games).

I've officially lost this week. No players on ATL or PHI for me. My starting receivers did nothing for me this week except for Rod Smith. My benched receivers (Burress, and Galloway) did decent. Oh yeah, Curtis Martin was a bitch for me as well, I woulda started Larry Johnson if I knew he was going to share duties with Priest Holmes. That's what I get for not doing my research, heh. I admit that it's easy to say that after watching him gain 110 yds. and two TD's on nine freakin carries. :eek: The Chiefs are my team though so I should've benched Martin on principle. This league is fun, gracias for hooking it up Aeq.

BTW. There are two games next Monday night. Hurricane Katrina telethon deal. That is muy bueno. They should have two games every Monday night. :D

Reel Deal 09-12-05 11:17 AM

Speaking of that I signed a new defense and released the defense the computer drafted for me, thought it would automatically start the new defense since it was the only one on the roster... wrong. Still won though. :D

lightfungus 09-12-05 12:44 PM

I got owned, how about a pathetic performance by Daunte?!?....

Hey TP, still want to trade Cadillac Williams for Larry Johnson?


Aequitas58 09-14-05 03:13 AM

This will not affect his season.

GeoffM 09-14-05 10:05 AM

Matt Stover is an asshole :mad: .

Talking Poker 09-14-05 12:07 PM

Oh please. How about Vick kneeling on the ball for -3 yards and -1 point at the end of the game. Whatever.

Talking Poker 09-14-05 12:08 PM

I still would, yes.

Aequitas58 09-14-05 02:44 PM

Of course it had to be you two guys to tie. LOL. It's gonna be interesting how that tie plays out for the rest of the season. Vick kneeling: that kills me.

GeoffM 09-14-05 02:52 PM

You lost 1 point for a kneel, I lost 10 points on 3 consecutive missed field goals. One was a 37 yard chipshot.

Oh, I can't wait to play your team again TP. I smell a rivalry on our hands ;) .

Talking Poker 09-14-05 03:41 PM

Please. I could make up all sorts of excuses for me team, but when it comes down to it, with one minute left in the WEEK, I was winning. Then Vick took 2 knees and I ended up losing a point and tying.

Lame.

eejit101 09-14-05 03:49 PM

I rock at this, i havent got a clue, which is good i think! lol

Aequitas58 09-18-05 03:59 AM

G'luck everyone. :)

lightfungus 09-18-05 11:14 AM

Same to you, but none to geoff!

GeoffM 09-18-05 01:22 PM

I want TP to lose :D :p .

GeoffM 09-18-05 02:26 PM

Live stats are still working.

lightfungus 09-18-05 03:14 PM

I cant even watch this anymore, football is starting off upside down this year...o points for the colts in 3rd quarter??? Daunte blows??? Patriots not looking good??? What the hell is going on?

GeoffM 09-18-05 03:18 PM

Actually, check the Patriots score again, I think all is well in the NFL ;) .

Aequitas58 09-28-05 02:07 PM

Here are the standings going into week 4:

9. Rogue Warriors 0-2-1 .167 276 L-2
10. Fungus Spanking 0-3-0 .000 288 L-3

Strange things are happening this year. Clinton Portis forgot how to tie his shoes, and at this point, I wish I took LT instead of Manning ... McNair is putting up better numbers. :(

BlibbityBlabbity 09-28-05 02:32 PM

I'm quite glad you took Manning.... :p

Reel Deal 09-28-05 02:35 PM

Yeah, it looks like the league's defensive coordinators spent the off-season figuring out how to stop Manning and the Colts.

Aequitas58 09-28-05 02:46 PM

Colts are still doing well, I'm just not getting the numbers of out Manning I'd hope for. RRrrrr.

GeoffM 09-28-05 02:50 PM

Lou, I seem to remember telling you that you had picked the wrong brother, perhaps I was right after all :D.

Aequitas58 09-28-05 03:07 PM

Eli! HAHA. He had a good week... you never know! :D

Reel Deal 09-28-05 03:16 PM

Yeah, but who would have thought they're doing well mainly because of their defense? Scary thing (for the rest of us in the AFC South) is you know that offense is going to start clicking sooner or later... they'll be very tough to beat when that happens.

Gordogg 09-28-05 05:06 PM

Peyton is not doing too well. He'll come around sooner or later, he is too good not to. I'm loving my 10th round steal of a pick, better known as Carson Palmer. What a season this guy is having so far. He's the real deal. Palmer and Chad Johnson are the next Montana/Rice, Manning/Harrison. I picked up the Colts defense after week one and that's turning out to be a great move. My Larry Johnson for Carnell "Cadillac" Willams deal is looking like a good move as well. We shall see.

GeoffM 09-28-05 11:08 PM

*cough, cough*

Young/Rice, most hooked up combo ever, Young never gets any respect, he was the man.

Gordogg 09-30-05 06:41 PM

That is true. I always think of Montana/Rice, but Young/Rice was the best. I think Manning/Harrison passed them up though.

GeoffM 09-30-05 11:47 PM

That doesn't change the fact, and I repeat, Steve Young is the most underrated QB of all time, much like Roethlsahrfsakdjhfskjdhfberger is the most overrated of all time.

Young was a stud too, if you know what I mean ;) LMAO.

GeoffM 10-03-05 10:10 AM

Still undefeated. It's up to AEQ and his 3 players vs. Favre tonight, if AEQ gets more points, I am the only undefeated team left.
