Hasn't Richie Incognito been voted among the dirtiest players in the league several times as well?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 4, 2013 -> 10:27 AM) Because Goodwin had control of the ball for a longer period of time, that's the only reason I bring it up. Not that I'm going to, but my argument would be that if the Goodwin play isn't a catch, then Graham never completed his catch either. One went to the ground with possession, the other didn't, that's the difference. The whole receiver needing to complete the catch through contact with the ground or whatever rule needs to be fixed this offseason.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 4, 2013 -> 09:51 AM) I thought the officials screwed up all weekend. I understand that the TJ Graham play in the Bills-Chiefs game was a fumble. I have no problem with that. But when Marquise Goodwin goes down the field, catches and controls the ball against his helmet without it ever touching the ground, and then lose it after he's been tackled/downed and you call it incomplete, I'm going to be upset. All I saw all week were terrible calls made by the officials. It's clearly a catch, as was the Andre Johnson play, but by the way the rule is written and has been enforced ever since the Calvin Johnson play a few years ago, they were both correct calls. I don't know why the TJ Graham play is relevant to the other plays either, it was obviously a catch and fumble.

QUOTE (Brian @ Nov 3, 2013 -> 06:21 PM) I'm gonna lose because of Chris Bleepin Ivory I lost because of Zac Bleeping Stacy. That and the fact that I also played Darren Sproles, Ray Rice and Jordan Cameron. Unreal. -

Started Marvin Jones in one of my leagues this week. Got me 10 points in PPR but really would have liked to have had that TD that was negated by the phantom holding call. -

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Oct 30, 2013 -> 05:29 PM) Locker or Foles during Peytons bye? Locker. St Louis secondary is awful and Locker could easily get 30-40 rushing yards as well. I'm starting Locker as my QB2 in my 2 QB league this week -

QUOTE (ptatc @ Oct 30, 2013 -> 04:07 PM) I need to play two of the following: Leveon Bell, Torrey Smith, Matellus Bennett, Golden Tate. I need a wr and flex in a ppr league. Bell for sure. Torrey will have to deal with Joe Haden so I'd go with Tate and hope the Bucs don't put Revis on him all game. -

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 01:59 PM) lowest scoring game I have ever played in was 2-0, a game we lost to a tournament team. And they didnt score until the bottom of the 6th. We lost a game 2-1 in the semi-finals a few years ago. It was ridiculous. -
QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 10:52 AM) 50 of the 53 players on the Packers roster have only played for the Packers. John Kuhn played 9 games with the Steelers in 2006 Ryan Pickett played 5 years with the Rams. Seneca Wallace is the third player, having played for a couple teams. I saw that stat last night too, that's pretty incredible.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 11:35 AM) Easy to look healthy against Air Force. Still, the problems with this year's team have been more on defense, which is surprising since almost everybody but Te'o is back, and Te'o was supposedly horribly overrated. Fixed. -

Florida State completely trounces NC State and drops in the BCS poll. I have this feeling of dread that FSU runs the table and sits at 3 because Oregon and Alabama don't lose either. -
QUOTE (oldsox @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 06:18 PM) Sounds like you did some research on previous posts of mine. I can't remember what I said about Early a year or two ago. Black, I remember saying that he should be moved up in 2012 because others here thought he was too old for his classification in 2012. Since he had good numbers then, I recommended he be promoted to see what he has at a higher level. Toby Thomas, I remember saying something like his numbers bear watching, or words to that effect. None of these comments were a crusade on my part to get them promoted to Top Ten status. Regarding Hawkins, I was a bit more expressive, I admit. I expressed surprise/dismay/discouragement over his poor stats in 2013, just like a few others here. The only thing I added was that he should not be ranked in Top Ten with those kind of stats. He was a Number 1 pick in 2012, and that is the only reason he is ranked so high by you and others. I say that once he is signed and thrown into the competitive arena, his prospect status should be determined by performance, not signing bonus. I once asked parenthetically how long he will continue being ranked #1 if he continues to underperform. No answer yet. Part of my negativity is caused by poor drafting in the first round over many years, exception Sale. Still, I am pulling for Hawkins to do well, but I remain very skeptical. It takes more than tools to be #1. I like Micah Johnson's tools much better. Same with Semien. No research necessary. It's easy observation when the person does it repeatedly and consistently.
-
QUOTE (oldsox @ Oct 25, 2013 -> 09:12 AM) It still blows my mind that so many people, including the White Sox themselves, consider Hawkins to be the #1 prospect. Well when you are of the belief that players like Michael Early, Dan Black and Toby Thomas are legitimate prospects, then that will happen

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 24, 2013 -> 10:16 PM) Well Peyton and Charles have been the 2 best players in fantasy, it shouldn't be that surprising that team has the most points. He has no RB2, his WR2 has a single TD catch and of his flex players, one is meh and the other missed the first two weeks. So to me, it's a little surprising that in just a 10 team league not one or more teams had more points. -

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Oct 23, 2013 -> 03:32 PM) Weird season for me for FF, some teams I had that I thought would be bad have surprisingly been ok and some that I thought would be meh have been really good. In the 10 team TalkBears keeper league Ive won my last 5 after starting off 0-2 and I have the most points with a roster of P. Manning Charles, Wilson, Snelling, J. Bell, Hillis (had Ivory and Bradshaw to start the season also) D. Thomas, T. Smith, Stevie Johnson, Josh Gordon, Simpson, Harvin (for keeper purposes) and Jarrett Boykin V. Davis, Fleener That's by no means a bad team, but I can't believe that team has the most points in a 10 team league. -

QUOTE (scs787 @ Oct 23, 2013 -> 01:22 PM) Sigh, so most of you remember the "awful" Cutler/Dalton combo I was rocking...Welll last week I dumped Dalton for Foles and of course we know that BOTH are now hurt so I put a waiver claim out on Dalton andddd I didn't get him. So now I gotta roll with Eli Manning In another league I've got 2 WRs on a bye week, so who ya got...Jeremy Kerley, Riley Cooper, Kris Durham, Marvin Jones, or Jerome Simpson. Kerley is safest, but the Detroit-Dallas game could be a shootout so Durham has big game potential in this one. -

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 22, 2013 -> 09:21 AM) Buffalo could just as easily be 7-0 as they could be 0-7. They've literally had a chance to win every single game this year, they're starting to get healthy, and they have one of the best pass rushing teams in the league. If the Bills can slow down Charles in that game, they'll have a great chance to win. Isn't the Bills offensive line pretty brutal though? Playing in Buffalo helps but Thad Lewis isn't super mobile and KC's obvious strength is their defense

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Oct 21, 2013 -> 11:08 PM) I'm not sure if Vegas does odds for the last team being undefeated, probably do but I would've easily put a little money on KC because of the first half of their schedule and the odds would've turned out such a high payout. I was expecting KC to go 5-4, hopefully 6-3 before the bye week. I thought if things went well for them they could get to 7-2. The game vs. Buffalo scares me because KC and Buffalo will have played for 6 straight years and so far posting a 1-4 record against the Bills. The only win came in late OT at home with the Bills being 0-6 going into the game. The idea of Buffalo scares me, but I just look at their team and watch them play and just think there is no way KC shouldn't win that game. Of course you're right, they will probably struggle there once again, but as of now I'm expecting a victory.
