Message Board Braggin' Rights League

Fuzz and Lefty this week.

Tlance- I am in- let me know where to go for baseball message board.

Tiance count me in for baseball. TKO sorry I didn't comment on your TE question but I had conflicting reasons due to match ups so i didn't think my opinion would be objective. Next time for sure as you are always there for me when I have a question.

Moving Down

And where's Joe? Shouldering his way through a high wind in a dark neighborhood on a freezing night delivering letters? We gotta do something! Quick, everybody, stop sending mail!

The only part that's actually true is that I'm "shouldering my way" into long days delivering.

Will, I'm confused. You posted this on 12/10 at 2:35pm (page 320).

So it's over, and we know who the Unfortunate Four are. Let's all say not adieu, but au revoir to TKO, Foot, Sam and DUB.

Then you posted this on 12/11 at 10:44am (page 321)

As mentioned, Joe, TKO, Sam and Foot will be in the "true" B league next year.

Joe, congrats on hanging onto that final spot!

So where am I going? Actually, I'm clicking "post" then going to bed. But seriously, which league will I be in next year?

As mentioned, Joe, TKO, Sam and Foot will be in the "true" B league next year.

Just a typo, Joe. That should have been "DUB," not "Joe."

Baseball is so tough, because it's so long, it's hard to commit to too many teams...that being said... I'd be in, give a shout Tlance.

No worries Foot.  I probably wasn't going to bench Gresham, unless someone strongly recommended Watson.  I'll take the 6 points, but would have rathered his knee stay in bounds on that potential TD catch!!!

Smaller money league still has the decision though.

Bennett, Myers or a free agent of whom there are plenty.... I'm interested in that Scheffler idea...?

Scheffler definatly interests me but I think Myers is the play. He has had some monster games I'd go with him out of those guys

In my playoff money league I'm on the fences between Scheffler and Pitta. I'm leaning towards Pitta because of a number of factors - Denver traditioally bad against TE's, Flacco is at home, new offensive coordinator that should bring some no huddle in which means more snaps, and he is I believe just a better executer. But Scheffler will get the looks and I feel like he'll get more attempts with like no one left on the team after Megatron.

I'd lean toward Myers in one case and Pitta in the other. Myers seems more reliably involved than Bennett, and in a big game at home against a tough, improving, Peyton-led offense and a pretty tough D, Flacco should be looking for Pitta a lot.

Looking for reasons on two RBs for my PPR auction league:

LeShoure at Arizona, McFadden home against KC, David Wilson at Atlanta, Martin at NO.

Message board baseball league anyone?  Could be sweet.  We could get a few guys from here who were interested plus a few regulars on the baseball boards. 

Count me in.... Wow with the sigining of Josh Hamilton it can only help Mike Trout.. Id take him 2 overall with only Miggy ahead of him

LeShoure at Arizona, McFadden home against KC, David Wilson at Atlanta, Martin at NO.

Nice problem to have Will...............Martin is a no brainer and I would say DMC next except Bradshaw is out so Wilson has to jump into the mix....................I would probably take the chance on Wilson as DMC could reinjure his vulva (I know how much you love the sprained female parts sayings).......................don't think I would be considering LeShoure splitting carries with Bell.
Sam

Will, Martin and DMC would be my choices.  I don't think Wilson goes off like that again.  It's time for McFadden to show up, and KC is usually his recipe for doing so.

DC, I really think you're onto something there with Scheffler.  I'd be scared of Pitta getting the "Myers" treatment of last Thursday, held in to block (or not block) Von Miller.  With Gresham's 6 already in, it makes me wish I grabbed him instead of Watson and made the switch.

And now, in my big money league (with Gresham), I have to really consider benching Roddy White for Eric Decker (Decker is usually the starter too, but this week I was gonna switch him up with MWTB.  I don't like having to start two Broncos in Baltimore, but it looks like I might have to...the only other option would be to bench Moreno for Beanie, and I can't see that happening.

Will Id pick Martin and Wilson even though Im not the hyped on Wilson he looked great last week and may be wanting to take advantage of his big chance to start. Thats who Id go with. RunDMC is tempting against the KC Chiefs but he is so unpredictable. Tough one one but go with Wilson.

Question to all any way anyone starts Kapaernick over Newton this week. Now I alsmost lost from starting Kapm over Cam last week and it would take some serious balls to start Kap again after last week but I'm thinking it could be a shoot out and i believe in Kap. Talk me out of it please guys. Was on the fence last night with RBs and was seriously thinking of going with Bryce Brown over Chris Johnson on Monday cause I hear he had a sore ankle but at the last minute I pulled Bryce out and stuck Johnson in there. So glad I did. Anyway Help Me guys?

Wil - I'd go Mc(hopefully I don't stub my toe)Fadden and Martin.  I'm hoping for a big game out of Wilson (I have no other real options in MBBRL) but he is really unproven at this point - you have options.  If you were to switch one, I don't think Leshoure would be in the conversation - so, Wilson for that guy in Oakland. .... Martin should be a lock.

OK,

So far we have:

RamTuff

for message board baseball.  Anybody else want in?  I will give everyone a few days to weigh in on this board before starting a thread on the fantasy baseball message boards.  Also, does anyone feel strongly about what format to play?  I generally prefer roto, but I think head to head would be more fun with this group.         

Wil,

Now that Bradshaw has been ruled out, there are exactly 3 RBs I would start ahead of David Wilson this week.  1 is AP, another is Arian Foster, and the third is Doug Martin.  McFadden and Leshoure both have solid match-ups, but being able to put Martin and Wilson together gives you the top week 15 backfield hands down.  Coming off of last week's breakout and looking at 20-25 touches, Wilson is an elite option for this week.   

Thanks, guys.

Foot, I don't see in what aspect of the game Kap is a better fantasy play than Cam. He doesn't really have a better matchup, he's not a better runner - maybe a slightly better passer but Cam has better receivers. And Cam has a better nose for the end zone. Kap may have a better nose for winning games, but that doesn't help you in fantasy. Cam seems to be getting his groove on and can do his thing against San Diego, while on the east coast the Pats are out for the kill and Kap will just try to survive.

OK,

So far we have:

Never played before but I would be willing to learn if you end up needing another owner. With the first pick oh the draft the SSRRC's take Mike Trout..............hell, I'll just draft Angels
Sam    

That's what I figured Will just wanted to see if there was one person that thought Kap over Cam wasn't a bad idea. Iv'e to my sences Im sticking with Cam.

I enjoy head to head..... I feel roto just comes down to who ever has the best lineup during the last 3 weeks of the season. Every week in head to head matters

I like both roto and H2H. But let's make it a weekly league- not daily. Don't want to spend the time necessary for a daily league as I am in 3 other leagues. Other suggestions:
-innings limits, weekly and/or yearly
-weekly waiver move limits- say 2-3 per week with rolling waiver priority
-non-keeper (redraft with this group seems appropriate)
-short bench so the the waiver pool is more interesting


These are only suggestions. What do you guys think?


P.S- Sam if you could get all the Angels, you may not need much else!
