Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Okay, so you have yourself and Jeremy and I have Scott and Stephen.
Let the battle rage on!!!
Thanks for the bet, Coach. This is gonna be fun. :tu

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Glad you like. May have to have another in a few weeks to see if the cold weather brings out the crankiness in some of these fuddy-duddies.:hm

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Good choice. Now that my team is (finally) healthy, I'm gonna run train on this league.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Thats until my Team Derails you!!!:D

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Well I guess we'll find out in a couple of weeks, won't we?-(P

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Shilala - 292 points + Santonio Holmes
Coach Deg - 335 points; complete

The good news is three of the four guys ahead of me are gonna lose this week. :dance:
The bad news is Felix Jones is still a candybone...:bhd

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I have now lost 2 games by a total of 2.6 points!!!!! So that means Santonio will score 43.1 so I can lose the bet, also!!!!

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I lost by .2 last week...I like the 1.9 point win a lot better.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Still thinking about that trade Scott...

(I forgot to do this yesterday. Was a crazy day. Let's just pretend it is Tuesday :tu)

1 Bax's Death Beaters! 180.40 (1,036.30)
2 Mattso3000 180.30 (1,136.10)
3 Tampa Torpedos 178.40 (1,168.70)
4 Stephen's Shockers 177.50 (992.80)

8 Sofaman 136.90 (1,112.20)
9 Jonumberone's Jerks 116.20 (1,040.40)
10 RangerB Never forget 51.40 (848.50)

For the first time in the competition - Bax wasn't towards the bottom of the list :(

Remember, if Bax is last overall at the end of the season I will double the pool! He's currently in 6th place overall.

Total pool: $25

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Coach got me by 20.6 points, so that cost me 10 cigars. I lost in our neighborhood league this week (0-6) and lost here. Lisa and I both won in our Survivor leagues. She won $110 in our 33 league last week.
I guess it wasn't a bad weekend overall, plus the Steelers won. :tu

I'm going to start with the updates. If anyone else had any bets this week, please let me know. :tu

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

It's me and you this week, Tim-Bob.
How bout we do a cc fiver and troop fiver? :D
We can just go head to head or if you want to try something more inventive, bounce it off me.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Hey Matt, on that trade...
Vick for McCoy and I'll throw in ten troop smokes just to lube it up a bit. Deadline is midnight tomorrow on the smokes, that way it'll be like a real NFL pressure-cooker trade. :r
I'll give you my 11th round draft pick next year and a player to be named later, as well. :tu

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Nice. Just running a cost/benefit analysis on it right now. I think the increase in potential qb points will be greater than the potential loss at RB, probably pull the trigger at some point here. Just tough to part with 1st rd draft picks. Also have another bundle on the way for the troops.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Did you not receive the smokes I sent last week?:confused:

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

You arent scared of that #1 finish last week Scott:r You're on like Donkey Kong!!!! One CC 5-er and a 5-er for the troops it is :tu

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Yes I did, Sorry brother. I got 9 sticks from you, for some reason I didn't mark them up. I must have got drawn off after I put them away?
As I went back and did a self-audit, I saw I didn't take off Tim and Matt's sticks from week 5, either.
So here's the corrections...

I'm gonna check and see, but I think we're on pace to totally crush last year's take for the troops.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I only sent nine? Man, I thought I grabbed ten. I'm such a doofus sometimes...:D

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Afternoon Fellas!
I haven't been very active here, as life has been crazy in these parts.
That said, it's time to fill my humi with your sticks!

I got a 5er and a 5er for the troops that says my kicker will score more pts than yours!
Who wants some?

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I checked to see what we did last year compared to this year.
Last Year we averaged 24 sticks a week.
This year we are averaging 36.3 sticks per week!!!
We are seriously kicking ass, keep hangin, guys. Let's set a brand new precedent for the Third Annual Group next year. We can beat them and they don't even know they're beat yet!!! :D

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I'll bet a fiver for the troops!!! Any takers, you name the bet.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I'll go...both of our teams have the best players on bye anyway.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

BTW, Scott...trade pending. That hurt a little to give up McCoy, but QB scoring is huge in this league.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I had some serious reservations, but I'm having such an incredible injury year, if I didn't make a move I was doomed. With Jahvid Best concussed now and it not looking good for him the rest of the year (being he's got serious concussion slow healing history), I needed to make a move, no matter how scary.
You're real strong at RB without him. Vick should definately put some points up for ya. I think this trade makes both our teams better. :tu

Plus you earned the troops 10 sticks, you beat the deadline. :D
It was the grease that made it go, didn't it?

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I recounted them about ten times since they showed up, including today. You really messed up my sense of supreme order and neurotic balance. I second the doofus.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

With my bet track record they'll get those sticks quick, too.:r:r

Coach, PM sent on possible bets.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Bump!
No takers? :sh

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

You do know you have Vinatieri right? I'll take that bet not so much on confidence in my kicker as the fact that Indy is terrible.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Went back to check the spelling on Vinatieri...pretty proud of myself for hitting that on the first try.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I never seen your bet Dom, I would have taken that, my kicker is a beast!!!!!!!

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Alright, 3 bets going this week. Dom and I are on for kicker score, a fiver straight up and one for the troops. Mike and I have 2 bets...straight score and a two team draft, my first pick was Sofaman.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Ah, but who's the bigger doofus, the one who sent nine, or the one who had to count them multiple times (up to and including ten) to confirm that there was in fact only nine?:sh:D

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I saw it but didn't take it. Candy from a baby and all...

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

On a (somewhat) serious note, has anyone talked to Frank (Ranger_B) lately? He's been on the CA website as recently as yesterday but hasn't set his lineup in a month.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I just sent Frank a pm. I think he'd mentioned at the onset that he hadn't done this before. I'm guessing it's a bit overwhelming.
I offered a number of ways we can help. They ranged from the guys in the league helping with his lineup all the way to assigning his team. The goal was to see that, at minimum, his lineup gets set every week.
My thoughts are that if he's fielding his nine guys like everyone else, he's always got a chance to win, and that's equal to what anyone else is doing. He doesn't have a bad team at all.

As soon as I hear from him I'll let you guys know where it's at and how things will proceed, if you don't hear from him before that. :tu

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

It appears you and I need to get a bet going, Doof.
I'll go a troop fiver, head to head or whatever you want.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Not sure on my troop stick math, Scott. Gave 20, 5 buy-in, lost 15 in bets +10 from the trade should have me at +10...you have me at -5? Also have 25 more on the way.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I did an audit the other day and thought I missed you and Tim's bets on week five. Now I see I didn't miss them. That brings you both to 0 prior to our trade.
On the 10 from the trade, I just struck ten from my balance just as if I lost a bet with you, rather than moving my sticks to your pile. I see exactly where you're coming from, it was a trade. Duh.
I'll fix that right now. :tu

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Scott, is it a bad sign for me that I added you as a second address on my c-bid account in expectation of several future deliveries in your direction??:r

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I feel ya. In my case, I'm making room in one of my coolidors. In my experience, space=costing me money. :r

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Glutton for punishment are you, shortbus? Since you threw down the gauntlet, I'll let you name the terms. That is, if you can avoid drooling all over the keyboard, window licker.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

We making a bet soon?:wo

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Sweet!!! I'm glad I get to pick. :tu
I will take Sofaman's club, you get Frank's. High score wins. Bet is five sticks for the troops, unless you have the balls to make it a bundle, nutless. :D

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I know that I sent him a PM on here the week that he and I played and reminded him to set his lineup. Said back then he's crazy busy right now.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I laughed.

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

Matt I'll take Shockers and Nolo

Re: Second Annual Fantasy Football for Stakes and the Troops
 

I'll go bax then.
