  • 10 Team leagues are like that, but seriously, your RBs are not great this year. Shady and Pey Pey probably are the two biggest significant factors of successful teams this year.

    • While I don't normally ask advice as I prefer to fail on my own, I seem to be stymied by this week's embarrassment of riches:

      Calvin Johnson vs Cincy
      Eric Decker vs Indy
      DeSean Jackson vs Dallas
      Jordy Nelson vs Cleveland

      Pick 3. Thank you for your input.

        • A strange trade in my money league. I play the son of one of the other players this week. The father is in my division.

          The father just sent Kaepernick (to start over the son's current Alex Smith), Eddie Lacy, and Michael Crabtree to his son for Frank Gore. I'm raising a bit of an eyebrow at this trade. Should I say something?

          • It's marginal (but hot) RB1 Gore for nice upside RB2 Lacy plus considerations. Assuming the father has a quality QB1 and reasonable QB2, I would have no (or minimal) problem with it. Yeah, the son gets 2 starters for one (I ignore Crabtree as a throw-in), but Kaepernick is inconsistent. And yeah, the fact that it makes your matchup tougher this week is a bit of a bonus. I say, man up be glad you don't face Gore.

            But if someone else says something, chime in bigtime.

                • 1-6 in IDP, second place in total points. Now, can I start complaining about bad luck?

                    I think only Peyton Manning can do that.

                    • At the halfway point, the entire IDP League is within 145 pts of each other. Unusually balanced.

                        My team is 1-6 and would have won 2/3rds of it's games if it played everyone every week. Everyone has a good week, usually the best of the week vs me.

                        • Well aware; been there. Your W/L and (to a lesser extent) Points Against in IDP are statistical outliers, just like they were for me in IDP 2011. It happens. Maybe you'll turn it around - or perhaps get to play spoiler vs. others late in the season.

                          At least you've got a strong contending team in Auction League.

                              This week is hilarious though. Welcome back to a starting job, Greg Little and Peyton Hillis.

                              Is it ironic that Hillis has now started more games for me than Cecil Shorts?

                                Is it odd and unexpected? Yes.
