Fantasy Football Discussion II

[Ben Kenobi]

If Zop had read this thread without checking the score on yahoo, he would have assumed he was only ahead by 10 points, not by 60. I know its only fantasy football, but its the difference between a truth and a lie. How can we trust any information you post if you make statements like that one?

I've made it very clear that I'm taking into account where they are in the game. This is no different from doing a projection when there is an election based on exit polling.

I don't care about the current score, when I'm trying to figure out whether someone is ahead or not. That's pointless. Jag could be up by 150, but if all his guys are done, and the other player has all his starters left to play? That's significant.

I know you don't care to understand it.

[Ben Kenobi]

Ben, in the past week, you've lied about an alleged trade offer you made to me, then blatantly misrepresented my statement on defenders. And that's just me. If you think making factual corrections is "taking crap" from me, there's an easy fix:

Yeah, like I've ever called you a liar, JRabbit. You know, what would be fun? I would love to treat people the way they treat me.

I admitted I made a mistake. I don't see why you hold grudges forever.

Why don't you admit that when DYO was playing me, that I pmed you and insisted that he start ALL of his players!

That would be, oh hey, Ben actually gives a crap about that. I think it's bull**** that you 'forgot' about him this week, but whatever.

Yeah, score him up as 0-13. Make it fair to everyone. Great.

Why don't we have a dispersal draft of his players? That would make about as much sense. Or maybe find an owner who's willing to make him competitive.

You want to talk **** about me, what about your reputation as being a good commish. I thought you didn't have people just walk out or abandon players? You've done nothing about DOY in 9 weeks. Were'nt you once all about 'active participants?'

You want to earn your credit as an active commish? Dump DOY for someone else this week. That's my challenge to you JR.

You want to talk **** about me, do this first, and you've earned it.

[SlowwHand]

Do projections count or not? It's like listening to a woman. Get away closer.


Edit: I wrote this after reading snoopy's Goody, or whatever it was. I was trying to bug him, not Ben.
Just wanted to make that clear.

[EPW]

I've made it very clear that I'm taking into account where they are in the game.

You said nothing of the sort.

WTF? 2 TDs for Chambers?

****ing ridiculous.

That puts me down 10 right now, from being up 20 at one point.

Where did you make it "very clear"?

[Ben Kenobi]

Well looks like the bus fell out on my squad. 70 points already?

[Ben Kenobi]

I've only been doing it for, oh I dunno, 8 weeks now?

You want to call me a liar if it makes you feel better, go right ahead.

[EPW]

I've check the last two weeks and you havn't done that. Show me the posts and I will apologize.

[Ben Kenobi]

Maybe after the game.

[Ben Kenobi]

Well I don't see why I should bother playing anymore, since y'all are all right about my team.

You know what guys, thanks for playing. You were great folks.

[SlowwHand]

Who cares what anyone thinks. You have a lot of players still to go this week.

[snoopy369]

Well, the lack of a CJ TD on that last TEN play makes it look pretty likely that JR will win our high-scoring matchup... ironic that the guy he was convinced would lose him the game ended up probably winning it

[SlowwHand]

The much maligned Jacoby Jones got Da Boyz 13.5 points. Meanwhile Roddy White turned in a stellar effort of 4.55 points for me.

[EPW]

Lots of close games this week.

[SlowwHand]

I need the Cowboys to win a defense dominated game.

[-Jrabbit]

Where to start, where to start...

Yeah, like I've ever called you a liar, JRabbit.

I'm quite sure I never said that you called me a liar. Certainly not today.

You know, what would be fun? I would love to treat people the way they treat me.

I can only speak personally. I've got no problem with that. Knock yourself out.

I admitted I made a mistake. I don't see why you hold grudges forever.

You admitted that your 3-for-RGrant trade offer never existed? Well, I should hope so. It was well documented within this very thread. Bravo.

There's no grudge, but I won't pretend it didn't happen.

Why don't you admit that when DYO was playing me, that I pmed you and insisted that he start ALL of his players!

That would be, oh hey, Ben actually gives a crap about that. I think it's bull**** that you 'forgot' about him this week, but whatever.

"Admit"??? I've never made a statement either way. Yes, you did PM me to that effect.

Yeah, score him up as 0-13. Make it fair to everyone. Great.

I'll continue to adjust his roster as previously discussed in these threads. Nothing has changed, except I dropped the ball today. Which I admitted. Mea bleeping culpa.

Why don't we have a dispersal draft of his players? That would make about as much sense. Or maybe find an owner who's willing to make him competitive.

That ship has sailed. No.

You want to talk **** about me, what about your reputation as being a good commish. I thought you didn't have people just walk out or abandon players? You've done nothing about DOY in 9 weeks. Were'nt you once all about 'active participants?'

I can't force DOY to be active. Every time I've emailed him, he has responded positively. It's not a good situation, but with our balanced schedule, the end result is eminently fair: one bad team that gives everyone a great chance for one easy win.

You want to earn your credit as an active commish? Dump DOY for someone else this week. That's my challenge to you JR.

I don't need credit. Your suggestion has been discussed previously -- around Week 4 IIRC. That would be unfair to everyone who has played him under the existing arrangement. It's not going to happen.

You want to talk **** about me, do this first, and you've earned it.

I don't have any special desire to talk **** about you, Ben, and I certainly don't need to "earn" the right. You "earn" my responses with your posts. And I will continue to take issue with anyone who misquotes me or misrepresents me. If you stop doing that, it won't happen.

My suggestion: consider refraining from posting when the Chargers game is tight. IIRC your "why should I bother playing" post was right about the time of the Rivers INT. You seem a little tense. But at least they won, eh?
