Fantasy Football '12

[PlayaDelWes]

Yes, I got the trophy and I have been slacking on any picutres with it. I'll get one posted before the draft tonight.

I'm down for randomizing draft order now....as long as you promise to do it only once.

Ha! Well, it will show up in the league news page as soon as I do it, and that's something that I can't even delete... so once is all it'll be.

I'm up for randomizing it now as well... will do it in an hour (when I get back from lunch) unless anyone objects.

I'm down for randomizing now

[Fourthisto]

It is done.

Ladies and.. oh who am I kidding... Just Gentlemen, I present to you, thine draft order:

1. Bobert
2. Fourthisto
3. BlueDevil 50
4. Lick the Lizzard
5. Gillster 17
6. Tickle Me Elmo
7. Thom Thom
8. Playa Del Wes
9. Mista Glitch
10. Aphxtwinin
11. Man I'm Cool
12. Vasoline Groove

It's a snaking draft, so Vasoline Groove gets the first pick of the second round, and so forth.

Good luck!

[Aphxtwinin]

[TickleMeElmo]

[bobert]

[gillster17]

[santasutt]

[TickleMeElmo]

Ask your league for a do-over.

[ManImCool]

I was not counting on getting the 2nd to last pick in this draft. Eff.

[gillster17]

toooooo many qbs should of jusy stuck with peyton and phillip. Id go rivers first week

[gillster17]

Also if all your qbs do well first week look to trade to get some wr and rb depth

[santasutt]

Ask your league for a do-over.

But my team name is the best...."JacksonJohnsonJohnsonJackson"

[santasutt]

Strategy 101

[gillster17]

Strategy 101 would of been to not draft that in the first place and not fuck yourself over with 3 mediocre qbs and a rookie

[gillster17]

Im having trouble getting into the draft it wont open on my shitty computer

[gillster17]

Sooooooo my computer timed out and I wanted to go with ari d but got somebody else i think can the league manager change this please!!

[TickleMeElmo]

Pretty sure Arizona D will still be there once waivers clear.

[Fourthisto]

Good draft, guys. That was fun... the tension, pained expletives and vivacious namecalling really made that feel like a prelude to championship week.

Foggily going through my roster this morning, I like my team more than I did last night... so far.

Sooooooo my computer timed out and I wanted to go with ari d but got somebody else i think can the league manager change this please!!

Sorry dude, I'm not going to add a player to anyone's team just because their computer messed up. Put in an add player request and pick them up Sept. 1st after (if?) they clear waivers.

[ManImCool]

I went really heavy on the RBs early this year. I hope it works out with them and Rivers this year.

[PlayaDelWes]

That was THE worst draft I have ever executed. Excuses: 1) Was only halfway through a live Auction Draft when this one started, 2) Patron.

Here's my sketchy analysis of the draft results:

[BlueDevil50]

Definitely don't like the fact of having both Cowboy WR's on my team, or the fact that MoJo fell to me in the third. Always open for a trade or two with my surplus of WR's.

[bobert]

Wes, do you really think that Russell Wilson is going to average 4 fantasy pts a game? I would bet money that he outperforms your starting QB the entire season. His weekly rushing totals will probably exceed 40yds.

[PlayaDelWes]

I told you it was sketchy

[TickleMeElmo]

Despite what your table says, I'm actually pretty happy with my teams, maybe except for QBs. It's risky and really counts on upside but I'm way more comfortable with this team than I would a lot of other teams in our league.

IMO, Fourthisto and BlueDevil50 may have the best teams.

[TomServo]

As an outsider, took a look at the league. I like Fourthisto as well, but I agree that BlueDevil50 is probably the best team as of today.

You guys better hope the Jags are godawful this year. If MJD and Blackmon both perform, he'll roll of a bunch of wins.

[BlueDevil50]

It's looking like grabbing MoJo in the third round was an absolute steal. Now it's time for him to score my some points!

[Fourthisto]

I like my team, but talk about being top-heavy, my bench is suspect at best. I need AP to get bit by the healthy bug for a change before the weekend hits, otherwise the flex position roulette wheel will be spun.

Here's my sketchy analysis of the draft results:

Sketchy for sure, who is BlueDevil51 and gillster 18?
