Panthers Defence shitting the bed nicely at the moment. i'm still in with a shot of going 3-0 if Chris Ivory has an OK game.
Fucking panthers *shakes fist*
Was a really close fixture that ebbed and flowed all the way through. As long as Ivory scores less than 0.5 points I will get away with it.
Scores Going into Monday Night
Players Remaining & my Thoughts
Waffles vs Tegal
J.Cutler, M.Forte (TEGL) - Tue 12:30
I think the Waffles have built up enough of a lead here, should be able to hold on for the win now.
Rodriguez vs Fairies
B.Marshall (HMEZ) - Tue 12:30
M.Bennett (FAIR) - Tue 12:30
The Fairies should be able to hold on here, though I guess a big Marshall game would turn it around.
Billikids vs Whale
R.Gould (RAMM) - Tue 12:30
I cannot see anyway the the Billikids can turn this around, even with Cam newton playing they are just too far behind
Troopers vs Hammers
C.Ivory (MET) - Tue 12:30
It seems my prediction here was accurate, barring a fumble from Ivory this is over
Griever vs Usos
N.Folk (YG) - Tue 12:30
A.Jeffery (USO) - Tue 12:30
Jeffery is a very good play here, but I think the Usos are just too far behind right now
I would just like to point out that I may be going 3 - 0
I know pride comes before a fall, but to let this happen, you should all be ashamed of yourselves and I'm embarrassed for you.
#bantz #trollolol
Oh dear, how did we let that happen?
Got my first win, 1-2 Baby!!!
So I keep hoping they would make game pass free again in NZ, but finally gave up today and got myself a season pass. At least through Google I found a 20% off coupon
3rd lowest Points For in the league, but still 3-0. I think the Merrick division is perhaps not as strong as the Herbert division. Early days though!!!

Why oh why did I end up in the Merrick.... Lol. Not that it actually matters as it appears the division playing thing didn't happen and it's all random.
I am really, really bad at this. To make it worse, my fantasy premier league team had 2 players sent off in the weekend.
I guess fantasies are just not my thing.

Hey you tried roll playing?
Dungeons and Dragons??
Week 3 Scores
Standings
Finals right now would see Troopers vs Tegal & Fairies vs Griever (Based on Points Scored being the tie-breaker)
Week 3 Trophy Winners
I also added a new Poll on the League Page.
Below is a link to the spreadsheet that I will update with our records, Top scoring Weeks, Lowest scores and others as I think of them.
Also of the lowest scoring wins, not only do the Fairies have 1st & 2nd on that list, they also hold 5th place...3 of the lowest scoring wins in the league after 3 weeks.
so many byes!!
so many byes!!
Yeah 6 team bye weeks suck, this one is made worse by including several big fantasy offenses in Bengals, Broncos, Seahawks & Cardinals...Don't really count the Browns and Rams :P
Good time to be playing Tegal!! Grrrival
Haha and I just realised I was supposed to be a 22pt dog to Tegal last week and beat him by 30 :D
50 point turnaround...
I managed to cut my projected total to nearly half.

Yeah you need to try harder.
Troopers vs Fairies should be a cracker!
Got a bit of work to do on my line-up after leaving 100+ points sitting on the bench last week!
nothing really jumps out at me on waivers this week. Weird feeling, like I'm missing something!
10 players in my squad with byes this week.
I think I am making 1 waiver claim, and really nothing else I want.
As opposed to Payslaves where I have submitted a large number hunting the pieces i need.

I didn't bother with waivers week before, it feels weird but sometimes you don't need to

Especially in a dynasty.

looks like I might get dealt to this week!
Does evveryone else have massive bye issues?
So this week will end with one 4-0 team and one 0-4 team as the 3-0's and the 0-3s meet this week :D
Does evveryone else have massive bye issues?
TEN players. 5 of which were in my starting team last week.
This week I need some bye luck, or some injury luck, or some players actually doing their fucking job luck. I cannot handle the stress of going 0-4.
Wonderful sporting weekend ahead, though - going to the North London Derby on Saturday evening, and then to the Dolphins vs Raiders game on Sunday evening. Also have tickets to the Falcons vs Lions game next month (taking the wife for her birthday - she hates sports so should be a roaring success).
Interesting reading, some positions on the field are clearly divided still like kicking and QBs

Like RB & WR?
What are the numbers like at College? Just wondering because the NFL teams can't really do much if the players coming out are one race or another.
I am also of the belief that why would a team pick a player based on race instead of how good they are.
Don't know the college numbers. Just came across it on Reddit. I don't believe people are getting picked on race. They would take the players that are best.
I do believe at a young age is where players will start going to those positions. You're black so you can be wide receiver. You're white so you can kick.
I am sure there is more black QBs in college then there use to be.
Just saw one of teams breakdown by race.
The average is 66% Black, ~30% White, and ~5% Others
Teams ranging from 27- Black Players (Eagles & Dolphins) to 42 (Bills & Raiders)
looks like I might get dealt to this week!
One can only hope!
The corner back stats are pretty amazing. I remember on Madden 12 I played my career as a CB - must have been the only white dude there.

Corner backs are Receivers who can't catch the ball :P (If they could they'd be receivers)
read an article about this at some point and said the reason black men dominate Football in particular the athletic roles is because when they were slaves they were bred for size and strength...Woah...was a pretty big leap.
It all depends on where you read as to what way they push the story :)
