Rodon is just straight filth. I can't wait for him to work with Coop.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 06:56 PM) Eminor nominates Chipper Jones to be our manager!

QUOTE (TRU @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 06:09 PM) Prater is suspended the first four games FYI I somehow completely missed that. Oh well that's what Teddy Bridgewater's spot is for. Thanks for letting me know. QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 06:12 PM) That's a 10 team league? Unless Lynch is ranked lower than I thought Lynch was a 4th round keeper for me. And AP fell to 4th overall, which isn't crazy or anything but I thought I was going to end up with Forte there.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 02:44 PM) I traded for him last year. Traded Vick for Brady not quite halfway through the year. He was something like top 6 or 8 the second half of the year. If you don't get one of the big 3 of QBs you're better off being the last guy to grab one. I'm fine with any of Brady, Romo, Ryan, Cutler late. Week to week they are all the same. He was there in the 8th. He's going to have a good enough year. He has as good a chance of being 4th in the league as any of those other guys. Forgot you traded for him, I'm just giving you s*** cause you know what he did to my team last year. Anywho, just got done drafting my main league. 10 team, .5 ppr and 6 points per throwing td. Everything else is pretty standard: QB: Brees RB: AP RB: Lynch WR: Jordy Nelson WR: Victor Cruz TE: Dennis Pitta Flex: Colston DEF: TB(this will be matchup by committee, they have Carolina week 1 and the Rams week 2) K: Prater Bench: Steven Jackson, Stevan Ridley, Marqise Lee, Ahmad Bradshaw, Martellus Bennett, Kaepernik, Teddy Bridgerwater just because I like him. I love my starters, hate my bench. If everyone stays healthy I think I have a chance to be really good. Let me know what you guys think.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 12:41 PM) I hope he's taken when my turn comes around. Too tempting again. I hear ya. He's probably like 8th or 9th on my qb list so I'm hoping to avoid him.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 23, 2014 -> 11:43 PM) First draft tonight. 10 team PPR. One keeper - mine was Ball in the 5th. QB T. Brady RB L. McCoy RB M. Ball WR A. Brown WR P. Garcon Flex M. Crabtree TE J. Reed Bench: RB: P. Thomas, A. Williams, D. Brown, L. Blount WR: K. Wright, J. Gordon, A. Hawkins Gordon in the 10th, worth a flier as a WR5 who has top 5 potential if he plays at all. How dare you draft Brady again.

QUOTE (ChiSoxJon @ Aug 24, 2014 -> 09:40 AM) I've said his since we moved him away from 3B but Beckham belongs there, great D and put up great numbers, there was no need to move him, in the case he bats around .260-.270 next year on a different team at 3B with 12-15 HRs and 25-30 2Bs with roughly 60-70 RBIs, how pissed will you be and at whom? I'll be pissed at KW and RV at an extreme level, maybe even Ozzie What?

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 23, 2014 -> 09:38 PM) It's really fun seeing prospects do well and getting excited about them. Just have Davidson and EJ go see a counselor to get their heads straight for next year. Davidson sure but there's something more with EJ. I'm sure his head is all kinds of messed up now but his stuff just wasn't there this year.

Woo! Very cool.

That 2b is having a nightmare inning.

The minors have been really fun to follow since the draft, even with some of the annoying injuries.

The Raiders are in mid season form. And right as I attempt to make fun of them Khalil Mack makes a nice play to get the Raiders the ball back.

Derrick doesn't seem to be going all out tonight, passing well though. I've only really watched when Rose has been in but Rudy Gay en fuego.

Machado=Derrick Rose.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 22, 2014 -> 04:53 PM) The problem, of course, is that SlamBall is dead. You take that back. On a side note, I actually played slamball once and it was one of the most exhausting things I've ever done. Ridiculously fun though.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 22, 2014 -> 04:31 PM) I'm with J4L. The Wolves will be fun to watch. Might not be good, but they'll be fun. Absolutely. They're just going to jump over other teams.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 22, 2014 -> 09:19 AM) Eh, I'm merely just hoping they get something intriguing for him because I too am a Dunn supporter. We'll get a months worth of at bats for Wilkins. I've been a Dunn supporter as well but at this point you might as well just dump him of you can.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 22, 2014 -> 08:26 AM) I didn't care for the first Sin City so will skip 2. Thought I was the only one, that movie bored me.

I don't really care what your opinion on the whole thing is but the fact that you're still calling for cops to shoot someone in the leg or use a taser on a guy with a deadly weapon either means you're not reading the thread or that you're just ignoring facts.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 22, 2014 -> 08:29 AM) How are they getting Young? Definitely a nice load for Felix...I mean Minn. http://bit.ly/1vqKfk3

So the Wolves are actually getting Wiggins, Bennett and Thaddeus Young, not trading Bennett for young. That's a pretty awesome haul.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 21, 2014 -> 09:58 PM) Uh, now it's coming out he had no broken eye socket ... did you watch the cellphone video of the shooting of the guy with the knife in St. Louis? I can't believe the people aren't rioting over that death. If you watch the video, you tell me they couldn't have tazed the guy or shot him in the leg at the point he's wandering around in the parking lot. Was he going to fire the knife like a martial arts guy? What kind of knife was it? Please comment on the video to me and tell me that life couldn't have been spared. I'm still sticking by my opinion they didn't need to kill the unarmed Mike Brown, as well. No broken eye socket after all??? I'm so sick of bad reporting. You can't believe anything anymore because of twitter. Ridiculous. How bout some media members get fired over this crap reporting. You just don't read anything that other people have told you and you wonder why people get upset with you around here.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 21, 2014 -> 08:56 PM) Only one game. Which isn't really fair in a "double elimination" tournament. Right? That's pretty stupid.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 21, 2014 -> 08:20 PM) I still don't understand why Frankie wants Zach gone. If Frankie wants to win he has to flip against Derrick and Cody and now is the best time for him to do so. He doesn't know that though. Everyone in there thinks Derrick is their best friend.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 21, 2014 -> 08:02 PM) If Jocasta returns, I'm done I'm cool with any of the other 3 coming back. I'm not worried though, I don't think there's a single comp she can win against those 3.
