FF2012: GWJFFL Week 12

At least I beat *Legion* this time. Unfortunately, I'm referring to creating the thread and not last week's game in GWJFFLK.

Today is a little slower at work so maybe I can get my "script" recreated on this computer and post some standings. Maybe. Maybe not.

BYE WEEK: NO TEAMS ON BYE

Thursday:
Texans at Lions
Redskins at Cowboys
Patriots at Jets

I'm actually in contention in all three leagues. I'm shocked that I'm able to say that about my Dynasty team since I missed those first few rounds of picks.

I'm not out yet in Gold. Jolly Bill is the only one eliminated so far.

At least I have the keeper league to keep me warm. The wheels really fell off in Gold, despite having many of the same players. Crazy.

Aw come on. Justin Forsett for 81 yards? Why couldn't it have been Foster?

Can I cut f*cking Romo before Tuesday? Does Fleaflicker let you do that?

edit: As I post that he gets an 85-yard touchdown pass.

I benched Stafford against Houston. Stupid move, obviously.

I benched RG3. D:

I was happy with my 25 out of Foster in my non-GWJ league... until my opponent got 31 out of Dez. Ugh.

Apparently, I should threaten to cut Romo more often. He had like 7.5 points before my post with a couple minutes left in the third and ended up with 34.

Second week in a row my Pats defense is one of my best scores. Crazy b

My fantasy football season in a nutshell.

"Man I need a starting RB to replace injured Darren McFadden"

"Great! Parmele is going to be the starter for Jacksonville" (blows all wavier money)

*Parmele injured on first series of the game, return is questionable*

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU!

I'm rolling with Kaepernick in my non-GWJ tonight. It's going to be awesome.

Platinum is really starting to shape itself for the playoffs.

I hope my lineups were set properly as I just spent the day driving to Virginia Beach and forgot to check em before I left.

Thanks justinbot for not playing Russell Wilson or Michael Bush. You've given me a chance at least.

Thankfully I might still win this. AJ Green, Cecil Shorts, and Demaryius Thomas all with 14-23 points. I swear I can't remember the last time I had 3 WRs all in double figures.

Now I just need Kaepernick to bring it home.

Ouch.

I currently need to get about 80 points out of Eli and Ahmad Bradshaw tonight if I want a chance of beating Rabbit.

Come on...30 more points in the second half. That's all I need.

I'm caught in the middle here. I want James Jones to get more points and I am cheering for the Giants here. My opponent also has Cruz in so I cheer and die a little inside....

Hell I'm playing with Nicks on my team in one league where I'm behind and against him in another where I'm winning. I need him to score... but not too much... but enough...

Welp doesn't get much closer than that. I win by a point and my slim playoff hopes are still alive.

Gah. Thanks to the two catches Vernon Davis got but were called back on holding penalties at the line, I get a goose egg from him.

Now I need 1)Steve Smith to play tomorrow, and 2) 6 points from him.

Just to keep my slim hopes alive in Gold. EDIT: Hm I may be out anyway. I think two of the 5-6 teams are playing each other, so I can't catch one of them now.

My team in Silver is a wash. Philip Rivers completely killed me this year, being the sole reason for 3 of my losses.

Against my best efforts, I'm hanging in there in Dynasty.

Ugh. I win to keep my playoff hopes alive but have to beat #2 Karma next week to get in.

But I guess if Gumbie can do it, I can too.

Yeah lost by a point thanks to a fat zero by my gb rcvr. How do you not get one reception?

Ugh, I actually have to pay attention to tonight's crap game. In Gold I am up by 2 points, I have Greg Olsen, he has Brandon LaFell. In Keeper League I am down by 2 points and have Steve Smith. I need wins in both to keep my playoff hopes alive.

I do like the points Grump and I put up this week in Keeper against each other.

Grump starters 126 points, my starters 124 points (1 player left).
Grump bench 119 points, my bench 121 points.

I was playing Bush early in the season and he did pretty much nothing. So of course I got free agent dumpster diving just to get a warm body to throw into my lineup and he goes off. Oh the beauty of fantasy. At least my non-GWJ team is doing well with Foster, Kaepernick and the Patriots D this week.

And I need you and him to finish off that win so that I can ascend to the new King in the North (or, at least, North division leader).

Likewise, I am in a dead heat in Platinum with oldmanscene. I'm up by half a point, I have Steve Smith, he has Bryce Brown.

I am a big Steve Smith fan tonight.

If Smith doesn't top 17.3 -- a feat he's only done twice this year -- I'll be kicking myself. When the Knowshon news came out, I pulled Hillman in Gold, put apparently forgot to check Keeper, where I coulda/woulda/shoulda put in Daniel Thomas instead of Lance Ball.
