Roster questions:
RB: Westy, Fargas, K Smith, Young, Henry (pick 2)
WR: Colston, s smith (car), henry (cin), chambers, hackett (if playable)?
DEF: TB, SEA, DAL, Cin, NO?
point system for RB’s and WR’s: 20 yds=1pt 1td= 7 pt
def point system (no special teams): int=2, FF or FR=1, sack=1, shutout=10
3-10 pts= 7 11-16= 5 17-20= 3 21-30=0 30+=-1
for wr’s pick 3, and for def pick 1
gators – Looks like you’re still alive. Good news.
RB – Westy (obviously) and after Young’s great game, I think I’d go with him after such a good week 14 performance.
WR – Coston, Smith and….Hackett then Chambers if Hackett can’t go.
DEF – Tough call between Seattle and TB. I think I’d go with SEA. They have been better this year and CAR is a mess. ATL has a little offense going with Redman under center.
k thx for advice
i gotta get big from every1 cuz im playin tony romo and brett farve and ryan grant
wish me luk
do i start jabar gaffney or chris chambers in td heavy league?
nyjets – That’s a tough call. On one hand, you have Gaffney who has been pretty good lately, but isn’t getting a ton of targets and has kind of a bad matchup. Then you have Chambers, who has a great matchup and is getting a ton of targets, but isn’t doing much of anything with them. I guess I’d go with Gaffney, just because the Patriots seem to target him for TDs and NE is probably going to put up more points.
if rivers doesnt start, who do i pik up?
edwards, hill, lemon, orton, redman, vinny, or volek?
gators – Trent Edwards has a great matchup against CLE this week and he has played well the last two weeks. I’d go with him, but if weather is a big factor then Volek is an attractive start as well.
Big Thanks to you, I made it to semi final!!

JP –
Shanahan announced that Young will receive the maority of carries moving forward after his 156 yds last week. Gore had 3 fumbles (2 lost) and pedestrian stats. Do I pull the trigger on Young tonight in place of Gore? I haven’t been able to divorce myself from Gore all season. Just when I was about to give up on Gore, he pulled off a 32-pts performance in Week 12 keeping me hooked like a crack addict…damn I hate FFL!!

JP –
I have a WR dilemma and need some advice. I need to start 3 of the following;
Larry Fitz, Laverneus Coles, Santonio Holmes, Jerry Porter, Reggie Brown…
Larry Fitz seems solid. Is Holmes healthy…more importantly, can I rely on him and/or Roethlesberger in the snow? Pick my poison on the WR3. Thanks.
WonderPets –
Shut Up, man! Just shut up.
Listen, man. It’s okay, we understand that you are a typical Brady owner who doesn’t know his ass from his face but will somehow manage to win your league because of your one-man show. Here’s some advice – start Brady and win. Sit Brady and lose. Where have you been over the last 4 months?
Maroney hasn’t done shit all year – Start Barber!
Gore is playing the Bengals – Start him!
Gates is the best TE in the league – Start him!
Roddy White has no QB and no Coach – Start “red hot” Edwards!
NE defense is playing one of the worst teams in the NFL – Start Pats, dumbass!
W/R – Young is hot as fire – everyone else on this list is hurt or worthless
A kicker is a fucking kicker
I feel like I’m spoon-feeding a baby here – damn I hate Brady owners!
Sincerely,
Bitter
Scorpion – QB = Warner (great matchup), WR2 = Burress (assuming he plays, if not, Bryant Johnson, assuming Boldin sits. if not, Gaffney) RB1 = Willie Parker, RB2 = Aaron Stecker, W/R = Rudi Johnson, TE=Cooley, DT = JAX, K = Dawson is great (keep an eye on the weather, pick up a dome or warm weather kicker if it’s really bad)
WonderPets – Bitter got it mostly right. Start Brady, Fitz, Braylon, Barber, Gore, Gates, Jennings at the flex, NE, Dawson
Gator Bait – I wouldn’t trust Skeletor in this situation. Gore should have a good day against CIN, though they’ve been better against the run of late.
Bobby – I would go with Fitz, Coles and Brown. Holmes still has an iffy ankle though he’s off the injury report. He hasn’t done anything lately and Brown is coming on a bit. Coles is a little gimpy but he should play against NE and the Jets will have to throw a lot. Porter doesn’t really enter the conversation for me…too erratic.
Thanks. I will stick with Gore and cross my fingers…
Watch Skeletor run for 100+ and a TD tonight…I’m duct taping my remote to the coffee table just in case.
How’s our Vince Young vs. Garrard challenge going? Last time I checked, Garrard had a slim lead.
Hey Bitter, I know how you feel, I’m playing against another Brady owner this week in semi final… I don’t think I have a chance to beat him… since NE is playing the horrible Jets……..
Bitter, you are so sad!! Don’t cry because you were not smart enough to pick up Brady! Who is the dumbass now?
Don’t hate the player hate the game!
Scorpion = WonderPets, right? I thought we were going to do away with these alter-egos…
Gator Bait – Skeletor is my nickname for Mike Shanahan…my other nickname for him is Rat Shanahan. He is evil and he wants you to lose in your fantasy playoffs.
Hey JP, are you at all concerned about how the QB issues in SF with Dilfer and Alex Smith both out will affect Frank Gore? On paper, his matchup this weekend against the Bengals is very tantalizing, but I’m thinking the Bengals will force the young kid to throw while focusing on stuffing Gore.
In a PPR league, I’m trying to decide between Gore and Brandon Jacobs to pair with Ryan Grant. Any thoughts?
gators – Sorry for the Young advice, but Fargas and Kolby Smith aren’t looking like great options either this week.
JEC – Gore has been a little iffy all season, but he has 29 receptions for 231 yards over the last four games, which works out to about 13 fantasy points per game in a PPR league just from his receiving numbers. The QB situation is worrisome, and Jacobs isn’t a bad backup plan, but I think SF will trail and Gore should rack up several catches in that situation.
im scared to start gostkowski in a blizzard, do i play him, or any of these guys?
longwell, kaeding, elam, josh brown, tynes, or rackers?
gators – Good move. You don’t want to risk starting a kicker in bad weather. Elam is done for the week, so cross him off. Tynes is in a similar situation Gostkowski. I’d go with Longwell or Rackers, but Longwell has been better of late and is playing at home, so he’s probably the best play.
i just created 2 name for 2 teams, make it easier for you to answer my question, that’s all. Thanks!
Rudi did nothing for me yesterday, Aaron Stecker or Justin Fargas or Willie Parker?
Then you replied to bitter as two different people. That’s a little odd.
WonderPets should probably start Witten because Gates is questionable. No sense in risking a goose egg when you have Witten sitting there.
I think Stecker is the play of those three, especially in a PPR league.
tony romo saved my season: thank god he sucks
I think Romo was distracted by the presence of Jessica Simpson’s mammaries.
yeah. So actually, thank you jessica simpson, for being so hot
anyway, since i am in the finals for 200 big ones (no pressure), i have some questions:
point system for rbs and wrs: 20 yds=1 pt 1td=7 pts so td heavy league
rbs (pick 1): stecker, young, k smith, fargas
wrs (pick 2): s smith, c henry, roydell williams, chris chambers, hester, porter, furrey?
k (pick 1): longwell, gostkowski, scobee, reed, rackers, kaeding, josh brown?
DEF: (pick 1): ARI, KC, DAL, DET, TB, NYJ?
DEF point system: 1 td= 7 pts int= 2 pts fumble= 1 pt sack= 1 pt
shutout= 10 pts, 3-10= 7 pts, 11-20= 4 pts, 21-29=2 pts 30+=0
im being really exact cuz i want best advice for finals
