IndyDDR Fantasy Football 2: Lock out with our rocks out

I drafted. I am the superior cat this season. Pussycats tremble before my awesome cat.

Holy balls did my team do well this week:



Arian Foster is obviously a bust at this point IMO but I think I can make do with Frank Gore and Jahvid Best. My WR situation is kind of up in the air (Plaxico got me 0 points but Vincent Jackson and Jeremy Maclin made up for his lack of production) so I'd be more than willing to trade Foster for a competent WR - I'll even throw in Plaxico for free.

I was sad to have to bench Dez but we do what we have to.

2-0, let's go.

Oddly enough Chad is doing well and his projected points this upcoming week put him in a great spot against John-Michael. He might want to switch out Mario Manningham for one of his back-ups though, the Giants aren't doing so hot and Manningham got pulled from last night's game due to a concussion.

Your backups are pretty poor though so you may want to consider dropping one of them and picking up a new WR from free agency. I don't think Sidney Rice is even playing this year so he's just taking up a precious backup spot.

I on the other hand am going to roll the dice and play Frank Gore instead of Arian Foster. Foster is going to be this year's biggest fantasy bust (sort of like Chris Johnson a few years back) and I have a strong feeling that the 49ers abysmal offensive line can take on the front four of the Bengals and open up a running lane or two for the little guy.

And V is still hilariously in last place.

[Ho]

I hope you're sitting down. I moved a couple people around on my team.

horry shit.....

Jamaal Charles is out for the season FYI with a torn ACL - you will want to drop him for someone else. There are a couple of good RBs available in free agency for you to pick up. Two examples are Fred Jackson who gets a good number of carries and Beanie Wells who is on a team that depends on the run game.

Other than that everything looks good!

Thanks for the tip. That really sucks for him...poor guy. I'll see if I can figure out how to trade him out.

Yeah just go to the Players tab and you should be a couple of drop-down menus and a list of players. By default the list shows all available free agents from all positions descending by projected rank. Change the sorting on the list to descending actual rank and choose RB from the "Position" drop-down menu. Pick any of RBs available by clicking on the green plus sign next to their name. You will then be prompted to drop one of your people in exchange for the new guy.

You probably know how to use the internet, I'll just point you in the right direction.

[Ho]

Yeah, I'm sure I can figure it out. I just haven't looked at it yet since even just moving a couple people around in my roster was about 2000% more than I did last season.

Wait a second...2000% of 0 is still 0, isn't it? Well, I think you get what I'm saying.

[Merk]

No explain it to me.

[Ho]

Explanation:

Math is hard. Let's go shopping!

[Merk]

I haven't been shopping in awhile! I'm sort of a cheap guy and it doesn't take much to make me happy. I want to save up a bit so I can go on a couple of vacations next year and if those don't pan out I might weasel my way into the DDR cabinet market so I can own another game that I can't store anywhere. Or maybe I can do the responsible thing and save up for a house or a new car or something but fuck that.

Working part-time, having cheap as shit rent, and collecting unemployment are some of the best decisions I ever made in my life.

[Merk]

Uh welp this week was a bust! Rob Gronkowski, a Tight End, is literally the best player on my team right now with 58 points earned this season!

He is doing better than Michael Vick by 11 points.
