TP Fantasy Football
Since the playoffs are almost upon us I just checked the playoff schedule and why in the hell do we have the championship game in week 16 and not 15? Any good player on a good team with a playoff spot locked up won't see much time. Anyone want to bet that after dominating the league all year I go out in round 1?

You do realize there are 17 weeks in an NFL season right ?

As of now, yes I do. Per when I posted, that would be a negative.

Right... Week 17 is a pretty standard FF SuperBowl week. After I spank GeoffM this weekend (time to put his silly 8 game winning streak to rest), I'll be tied for second place in the overall standings, and positioned for the playoffs.

I'm riding the LT wave to the prize money, however much it is.

I'm just waiting for a meteor to take out Steve Smith while he's hanging out with Devery Henderson just to complete my season of suck.

I cliched a playoff spot...
I won the Superbowl last year... we'll see what happens this year, not feeling as confident with this team. I hate how we have 14 teams in the league, 2 too many teams IMO. |

Told you I was gonna put a stop to that silly 8 game winning streak of yours.
See you bitches in the playoffs. |

*sigh*
Reggie Bush goes for 4 and I still lose because my GPA is higher than Rex's passer rating.

I doubt the Colts D will be receiving a TP christmas card this year.

I might be removing Willie Parker off of mine as well, unless LT puts up 3 TDs (wait a minute, isn't that what he usually does?)

Teehee. Their Pass D was fantastic...375 yards of rushing is a bit iffy though...

Not that I'm in this league or anything (I should have been, so hopefully next year), but I felt too compelled to respond to this.
I generally think it's a bad idea to have a fantasy championship in Week 17. At that point in the season, too many playoff berths have already been decided, and too many other teams have packed it in for next year. Coaches like to use that week to either rest their stars, or to see what kind of talent they may have for the upcoming season. So a lot of times, fantasy studs get a break. Yet in Week 16, you'll almost always still see them play, even if they've already clinched home-field. If you have a dominating fantasy team, and your top players just happen to be on the top teams in pro football, you shouldn't be relegated to a Week 17 crapshoot just because the real teams your studs play for have rested their guns in preparation for the playoffs. Just my .

That was a typo. Our SB is in Week 16, just like everyone else's. I was agreeing with Rob, who was basically saying there are 17 weeks in a season and our SB is in Week 16. Note the OP:

Either that or they let retiring local QB legends dropkick FGs and your kicker gets screwed.

Or, they let certain future Hall of Fame quarterbacks run naked bootlegs in the direction of other future Hall of Fame defensive ends (unblocked, mind you), while said DE "sacks" said QB to set "sack record."
Cough, cough .. Favre .. cough, cough ... Strahan ... cough, cough ...

What were the payouts for this thing again?
I really need Indy to run the table now in hopes Tomlinson will be playing at full speed. SD currently sits in the position to earn home field.

I just had myself a miracle comeback...down 51-23 with Marvin and Rudi left to go and they both come through to knock off the number 1 seed in our league at 11-2. See ya in the championship match Mr. Monday Night.

I've got a lot of injuries, but Kitna is due for more than 5 points this week so you best watch out.

Looks like a lost a heartbreaker. LT got shut down and Brees continues to struggle, and even Wayne struggled. 1 guy puts up 1 mesely TD, I likely win.
Congrats Fungi, GeoffreyM on Stars for me

Thanks man! This is one of my prouder fantasy wins as I didn't have a stable QB all year and rode the coat tails of the Chicago D and Maurice Jones-Drew which was an early season pickup and turned out to be a top fantasy player. It's all about those early season pickups in my mind. The Champion has arrived. I look forward to another championship season next year.
Ship it. Lighfungus on stars.
