    Fosters creaky hamstring is gonna be ur undoing :P Ray Rice with Vonta Leach blocking for him is going to lead me to the promised land! I will be taking all your dollars and they will become Millions of Vietnamese Dong, you're all going to make me a millionaire ;)

    I'm glad your confident. There was a reason I was looking to deal Rice. The Ravens are committed to becoming more of a vertical threat and stretching the defense. Now, Rice will no doubt still have a great year, the additional of Lee Evans is going to take a lot of those receptions away. Foster will put the numbers up as long as he stays healthy, but just in case I went ahead and added DMC to my RB stable. So now with Foster, DMC, and S. Jackson I'm thinking I've got as good a RB trio as anyone in the league, but here's the thing, the NFl is no longer a RB league. It's a pass driven league which is exactly why I loaded up on WRs. I had enoughy WRs to go after the RBs I wanted and still have a fantastic and loaded group of WRs....and I just may not be done quite yet.

    So like I said, I'm glad your so confident...it will make beating you all the sweeter! Hahaha. :-P

    Which is exactly why I drafted White, VJax, Jennings and Ocho to go with AP and Rivers.

    So smack talk if you want, but as usual, you know where to find your competition ;)

    100% on the money brother. You have some nice WRs. I'm pretty comfortable with Fitz, Marshall, Floyd, Collie, and Macklin. I hated to give up Plax and Bowe, but I'm still happy with the group I have. I'm feelin pretty good headin into kickoff. But you know me....I can't sit on the same cats for too long. Hahahahahahahaha

    Not this year brother. After having the greatest FF of all time not to win, anything less than the ship is simply not an option. Lol.

    Which from the way QLW is talking you got such a terrible deal on that trade I'm not sure how u will make the playoffs. Lol. I'm actually a little surprised anyone had any problems with that deal. Maybe Im just missing something idk, but I can tell u what I'm not missing....winning it all!!!!

  • You guys that know me and have played FF together for a few years now know that I don't roll like that when it comes to trades. I've always tried to work good deals that benefit both sides. Hell, I bet I apologized to D 1/2 a dozen times over starting all that shit with his trade with the mysterious "Katalac" lol.

    I started that one for trade discussions alone and this one for FF in general. Lol. IDK MAN, I was bored and it seemed like a good idea at the time. Lol.

    QLW, only made the one comment on je other thread. He didn't ask for a cancelation only more time allowed for vetoes, which I'm not sure how well that would go over with everyone else. Lol.

    Btw, Bob from the money league said he would take ol Todd's team if we booted him. Just FYI.

    well todd is in the money league AND the first free league on yahoo, so we'd need to find a replacement in the $$$ league as well. . . and yes I think he should be booted. . . to bitch and cry like a little girl and then just simply disappear is ridiculous. . .

    Well the money league deal could be an issue because of the ante to get in. Hmmm I'm not sure how to remedy that one. As commish can you clear his roster? Everyone would just be guarenteed a win.
    Idk really how to handle that. He actually has a decent team and it would really suck for him to win games doing nothing and then hand someone else a victory because of bye weeks. Not sure how we could improve or fix this situation.

    Actually I think the way we have it set up, everyone in that league plays everyone else twice. . . So emptying his starting spots, just move them all to the bench, and then lock his team might be the best option???

    Two things: 1) Either we remove Todd or we don't do anything. That's pointless to offer two free victories to everyone. And we don't know if he'll participate or not. If he doesn't update his rosters, then I can understand locking his team. But if he keeps it updated, we should let it go. However, I'm happy to boot him from both. I'll just be forced to refund the guy's money and we'd need someone to take over. If someone wants to jump into a money league, speak now! He's got a pretty good team and we can post the info here if anyone might want to consider "adopting" his team lol

    Second, TOMMY!! I just heard the news out of Texas. Foster just had an MRI and the news is that he *could* miss up to four weeks of the season, and even then he may not be 100% at all this year.

    I had to say I warned you...but I did... lol

    1.) FU*K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    At least I still have two solid RBs in DMC and S. Jackson.

    2.) I agree that if Todd takes care of his team then yeah we should let him play.

    3.) DAMN IT! SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!

  • Read the Yahoo article just posted on Foster. I'm not sure what to think of it, really. They could all be wrong and he could still suit up week 1. Give Foster credit, he seems determined to be out there, so I won't bet against him until I see otherwise.

    EDIT: The more I look into this, the more I think ESPN and Yahoo should probably double and even triple check their sources. There is a rumor that Foster gave a fake MRI photo to see if journalists would take the "bait" and freak out about it. So either Foster has an elaborate joke going on and ESPN/Yahoo should be ashamed for getting fooled, or yeah, Foster is trying to hide the fact he's more hurt than he's letting on. Guess we'll see.

    I know Foster has been really going after people about only caring about his fantasy status and not him as a person. I just read on ESPN that he tweeted a photo if his MRI and the Texans weren't amused. Lol. They also said they still believe he will play kn the opener. I think I'll be ok in the early part of the season with the talent I have. As long as I have him healthy down the stretch run.

    May be looking for another RB tho just in case...sigh....lol

    I talked to Bob, he said if we needed someone to replace his account in the non $ league he would definitely do it.

    Don't know about the other league. I guess locking the team. It would be so much easier if the guy would just play. I know $25 isn't a ton of money but who would just throw it away especially with a chance of flippin it times 10. I swear the more I think about it the more I think it may really have been BB4L. I swear last year someone said something about his real name and it just seems like "Todd" was the name used. Idk and really it doesn't matter.

    HEY TODD, GET WITH THE PROGRAM ALREADY!!!
