2005 CFFFL - AFC - Talk Trash here

[MDS]

wah

[Diomedes]

How long should I keep Duce fargin' Staley on my roster?  I want to cut him every week, and every week I somehow manage to hold onto him.  What's wrong with me?

[Sgt PSN]

What's wrong with me?

How much time you got? 

[Diomedes]

Just enough for you to tell me what to do with Duce fargin' Staley.

[Sgt PSN]

Cut him.  He's not going to be a productive/consistant fantasy player this year.  Too many RB's on the roster to share the ball with. 

[Diomedes]

That is of course wise advice.  But I'm telling you, as soon as I cut him, Jerome and Willie will both slip and break their necks, Chuggie or MDS will pick him up, and I'll end up losing to them because they start him.

[Sgt PSN]

That's when you take advantage of your Commish powers and 'alter' their rosters a little.  A dash of Tim Couch here, a sprinkle of Mo Clarett there and just a smidgen of Johnny Morton sounds like the perfect recipe for the worst Fantasy Football Gumbo ever.

Notes

• 4-time overachiever: Jeremiah Trotter
• 3-time underachiever: Daunte Culpepper
• 2-time underachiever: Priest Holmes
• Heroes to zeroes: Clinton Portis, Adam Archuleta
• Apparently no one attempted to play defense in Week 8. Almost all defensive players underperformed, and offenses AFC-wide put up Tecmo-like numbers (with one obvious exception).
• All but one player on Sassy's offense put up double digits, including his bench.
• Everyone on Seabiscuit's offense scored a touchdown. Everyone!
• Eastern Motors left what would have been the defensive MVP (Mike Peterson) on the bench. It may have been poetic justice, since the owner of that team pointed out that Sassy committed the same error last week.
• phillymic seems to bench the hot QB every week.
• This is the second time the offensive MVP is the quarterback who played against the Eagles. 
• Say goodbye to Daunte Culpepper, who truly had one of the most infamous fantasy seasons of all-time. Just ask CSD.

[satoshi]

Satoshi,  Nice try

I will rip you in the postseason....

[Seabiscuit36]

HA.....Love the fact that everyone scored a touchdown last week that means i will score 2 total next week

[QB Eagles]

I hope so!

Bettis and Big Ben are out. You might want to pick up Duce again.

[Diomedes]

I dropped Staley this morning, adding Ernest Wilford.  This afternoon, Bettis is downgraded to doubtful.   

[Sgt PSN]

What dumbass did you let talk you into dropping him?  Dude, you gotta stop being so trusting man.  There's a lot of idiots out there. 

[QB Eagles]

Bettis won't play at all. That's the word from Cowher. Steelers fans are nervous about this game.
