Rumpy Dopplegangers. It's a maple syrup reference but it's subtle.
Absolutely, if the price is right. I know people want Welker but it'll take quite a bit to get him away from me.

I'm bad at making the first move, so make an offer. Then we can spitball back and forth. Then we can talk about the trade.
I gotta tell ya, when you offered me a Friday Night Fantasy, this wasn't what I had in mind.
Man, I have Bowe in my money league and he frustrates me. I dunno man, I don't really need a receiver, so you're probably not gonna like my counter offer.
Seems fair enough. If Sproles comes back in a decent amount of time you'll win that trade, but I need an RB now.
I sent you a 1-1 offer, Kyle. We can haggle around on that. The only person truly off limits on my team in Wayne.
Ahhh sorry bud I already accepted Crystal Meth's.
It's too bad though, I love Charles. I just don't love Romeo Crennel.
Oh shit, I just realized something. My name is crystal meth.
Fuck.
Who has a QB they'd like to trade me?
Note to oneself do NOT take out the hot player in Randall Cobb in at the last minute :banghead:.
:grumpy:
Oh my, truly shot myself in the foot today. This is going to hurt.
Edit - Errrr not going to hurt is as much as I thought as I am getting fucked royally by Mr huettl.
7-2
3 to play still but it's over.
The king is back.
Doug Martin PUTTING IN WORK .. I have him in another league .. 51 points .. the guy I'm playing has 44 points TOTAL right now.
That was some Madden shit Doug Martin was doing
I haven't even had a game like that in Madden
Is it just me or is it a lot easier to take defeats like these than when you lose a nail biter. I mean I am still incredibly bitter about the one I lost to Kyle, that one was completely out of order.
What a weird year I am having, I'm unbeaten in the BG league, getting smashed in SMUL (1-8 soon to be) and in this one I'm middle of the pack. I did miss the SMUL draft right enough and I have to say this league is my favourite and again it's mostly down to you guys using ESPN and being very active players, good stuff :yes:.
You need to turn the difficulty up bro
All-Madden brah :cool:
I can run all day. Passing, well that's another story.
On last year's Madden I could run all over people.
New Madden, on All-Madden cannot run for shit but passing is easy.
I had this same convo last week with my brother. He feels the same you do. I dunno, I can still run all day. My passing game isn't too bad, just some games I throw way too many picks haha
Yeah, my first game in My Player on Madden 13 as a quarterback I threw 7 interceptions against the Raiders in a preseason game. SEVEN. Guys were just materializing with the ball.
It is far too easy to beat press coverage when they're in man though. Any time they press, just do a streak. Touchdown 9 outta 10 times.
I have torn this week? :lol: Easiest week ever, time to follow one squash up with another.
And feel free to make all the trades you want Torn because much like an ugly girl with a great personality, it's just not going to matter.
you don't have your quarterback next week.
Doesn't matter. I could beat Torn with half a QB. It's nice to give him a slight bit of hope before I crush him though.
I'm still in first
Remember the last time you were matched up with me, Defrost? I rocked you like a hurricane.
Okay. The Redskins beat the Giants twice last year. Who won the Superbowl? There ya go.
I hate Tony Gonzalez
Winning by 1 point = Winning. :D
I used to do that, but now I just get stomped.
PS: Michael Vick is a filthy towel.
FOLES
I imagine he'll look better with a full load of practice. Yeah, he threw a pick.. but how many has Vick thrown?
I think if anything, it'll be easier for the line to hold up when they don't have to worry about their QB running all over the place.
We'll see. I like the kid though. He was one of the QBs that I wanted the Chiefs to try and get in the later rounds.
Realistically he's going to be a disaster. He's a rookie on a team with a banged up offense, a godawful defense, and a coach who has checked out, in front of the most unforgiving fans in football.
With any luck he'll learn from the pounding he'll take here and be good for the Eagles next year.
Foles looked worse than Vick and woulda been picked off about 6 times if Scandrick had actual hands or Claiborne could keep his hands to himself. The game was essentially gift wrapped to Dallas once he came in. I know, rookie QB, first game, terrible offensive line etc whatevs but STILL. Don't see how this guy puts you in a better position to win games than Vick does, I know he's been bad but the o-line might be the worst in the NFL and that problem is still there.
Basically, at this point Michael Vick is Kordell Stewart and Nick Foles is David Carr. Enjoy, Philly fans.
Nonsense.. Michael Vick could never catch the ball like Kordell Stewart.
foles isn't gonna be the savior. that whole offensive line is terrible, if they can't keep vick standing, what makes you think they can keep him standing??
also, my fantasy team may have come alive finally.
Makes sense now the season is lost but I'm pretty sure you wanted to win games after the first week when you and the Philly fans were calling for Foles?
CJ Spiller gets the backfield to himself on Thursday :panic:
Now he'll probably leave the game hurt after 3 plays.
oh, i just shout PUT THE WHITE GUY IN cause i find fake outrage with racial overtones to be funny. i love vick and was more than willing to give him a chance. anybody else who was legitimately calling for foles to start over vick within the first 5 games is a typical reactionary douche-fan.
Or they're Dubya.
Bert has been mysteriously quiet despite posting elsewhere. I wonder why?
Come take your beating like a man.
By the way. I love that our entire half of the bracket is tied at 5-5 except for one guy who is 2-8. Atty and I face each other this week, and we have the same record, but I'm in first and he's in fourth. Insanity.
I think, I thinkkkkkkkkk I've won this week.
:shifty:
Atty and I are having what amounts to a sissy slap fight right now. Something like 64-59.
FUUUUCCCCCKKKKKKK.
gonna lose by 4 points cause of fucking byron leftwich/not putting in marcel reece. on top of that, GRONK BREAKS HIS FOREARM AND IS OUT FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
Bert was right not to set his line against me. I'd also be terrified of my 5-5 record.
Bert hasn't been very active since his back to back embarrassments. Shame.
My team shit the bed this week when I needed to win, being back to 5-6 when most of the other 5-5 teams went on to 6-5 hurts my chances pretty badly. Percy the purple superhero must return and save me this week.
Jesus christ! Luckily this week seems to be an outlier for your team as I play you this week... and whoever loses is knocked out the playoff race.
Welp, my loss this week pretty much knocks me out of things. But I definitely didn't deserve to win with how totally awful my team was. I really need to stop gambling on Forte every year. He's burned me two years running. Charles too. I have a weakness for taking risky running backs.
kinda pissed with how the waiver wire is set up for this week. i wanted to pick up the patriots defense for tonight, but the claim wont clear until NEXT wednesday, for some dumb reason. not even for this sunday, but the middle of next week. fucking shit.
So Christopherson puts up 90 points (atleast terrible Shonn Greene didn't get a million points against me this time..) and I end up with a big fat 0 from Miles Austin after he plays about 3 plays before dying. I've basically lost before Sunday even comes ffs! Big players getting injuries in the middle of games has been a common theme for my team over the past month. Ugh. I'm out of the race anyway but STILL.
Right so I'm a bit cornflaked with this one. If Bert or Atty lose and I win would I then go into the play offs? How are tie breakers decided because if it's PF I might be good but if it's divsional games I think I'm fecked.
PF probably.
I have no idea how the playoff system works, because I haven't made it to them since we've started doing these.
I got in the playoffs last year and still have no idea why
Still playing to win the real playoffs, the CONSOLATION BRACKET :cool:
also because it's fun
Should have started Moreno dammit
It's nice of MJD to rest up for the only playoffs he's going to see.
I love that Bert hasn't been back in here since Torn and I gave him the flying double stomp.
COME BACK BERT
"COME BACK BERT"?!
That just sounds wrong...
Congrats on knocking me out, Morri. The Bryce Brown magic was not meant to last I guess.
8-8 here I come. WOOOOO.
It;s actually nice how much parity there's been in our league this year. 3 games to go and I'm 6-7 and I could still possibly win my division.
was pretty nervous all day sunday with my projections continually dropping and yours staying the same. then victor CRUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZ comes along. i put a claim in for the seahawks defense, so when i saw that they were BLOWING THE FUCK UP i did get a bit depressed. now it's onto frosty.
huh?
sooooo yeah, not off to a good week with starting andrew hawkins. FUCK.
So I am the last line of defense between Bert and the championship
it looks that way.
Look, my time is lot more valuable than yours so I'm just going to keep this short,
you all know I'm a caring person and I know it's been a tough year for a lot of you, especially you Torn with being alone and with poor esteem not to mention ugly, and I really wanted to help you guys out so I dropped a few games in a row. Plus, everyone really wanted me to lose and me just winning every game in dominating fashion wouldn't have been that interesting so I gave you guys some hope only to snatch it away at the very last second. Suckers. And now that I'm here in the championship game just like I said I would be I would like to take this final opportunity to offer Defrost the chance to give up right now because although he loves Japanese wrestling and that's pretty embarrassing enough, that'll be nothing compared to the shame he feels after he loses to me.
Now when I win I want a new thread named Bert's Fantasy Football thread of WINNING. Wherein we will discuss how I won every game and the brilliant strategies I utilized.
And I want this thread renamed to BERT WINS, EVERYONE ELSE SUCKS: THE VIP FANTASY FOOTBALL STORY.
Jesus, if Bert wins we'll never hear the end of it
:lol:
Look at Bert waiting until he was absolutely certain to be in the finals before trying the trash talk again.
It's cool buddy, you earned it this time.
I think Bert is going to win honestly. Bears D vs Cardinals. That's like 90 points right there.
Gonna be close
No shiva for bert
Thank you Defrost. Thank you so much. Congrats mate.
DEFROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST IS THE CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAMPION MY FRIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEND
If Bert doesn't make a humble post congratulating Defrost and acknowledges his failure he loses his place for next year.
Congratulations Defrost, well played (I'll rep you champ when you post in here).
Cracking league this one, actually one of my favourite's even though I never even qualified for the play offs, nice lay out love the flex and PPR for my first time was really a pleasant surprise. Can't wait for next year.
Well done guys.
I had a really great time guys, and congrats to Frosty.
And if Bert doesn't come in and show some sportsmanship to Frosty after the shit he talked, we should all call him Mertle for a month.
lololololol bert you suck so fucking hard
hey
OK GUYS so me and hitty were talking about this on Skype a few weeks ago whilst trading Bryce Harper, we pretty much decided to go with a 10 team league this year due to Dolmeth disappearing off the face of the earth, no idea if Kyle is alive, Atty being the virm of this league and Bert not conceding.
I'm assuming we have the usual gang confirmed:
Me
hitty
Matthew
Cewsh
Defrost
Morrison
Christopherson
Atty/Bert/Kyle can fight it out for spots if they do want in I GUESS. I need to ask dubya if he is in this year again but I assume he is. I'm also going to assume there are people around who would be willing to fill a spot if we need it.
FANTASY FOOZEBALL !!!
I'm definitely in.
:yes:
Love that idea. No sense in constantly trying to find new people who wind up giving up halfway through.
Id be up for this if there was room.
