Football is back, in fantasy land
My Fantasy Football league’s draft went through and I forgot to set my line up. Oh there was plenty of warning, lots of emails sent out about how it was going to happen soon, or how it was going to happen that night. I still didn’t set it, totally my fault.
But it looks like I didn’t do too badly, especially considering that I had last pick this year. Yup, last out of twelve. Either everyone else set their draft up horribly or I just got lucky. Then again I haven’t seen the team play yet. I might not feel so lucky in a few weeks after I have traded my entire starting team away.
BTW, I am always open to football advice. Though I really enjoy Fantasy Football and watching the games and so forth, I have found that I lack the required time and drive to play shrewdly. I tend to rely more on luck. Not such a bad strategy either, as it has worked quite well in the past. Though I will add that my team does tend to perform better the more I keep abreast of RL football.

I’ve made the joke before that there aren’t enough wizards in Fantasy Football. Less joke-filled however, I think that I’d really like to play a game where you played ‘Fantasy Football’. Wizard quarterbacks and half-orc barbarians on the defensive line. How could that not be fun?

Totally agree! It would be awesome, but would require special rules. Hmmmm.

Pun-pun at kicker.

You do just fine, TFG. Just [murder] fine.

LOL!

TFG!
I’d get rid of a couple RBs and replace them with WRs. The WR positition has higher chance of homerun hitters. With all those RBs, I doubt any of them could really contend with the top 4 or 5 in the league.
As a Cowboy fanatic, keep an eye on Ogletree (sp?). Might be this season’s Robinson for the ‘Boys.

Cowboys?!!? You do know that makes us rivals right? Solid 49ers fan here. =P
But I will see if Ogletree is available since Fantasy Football will overcome!
Thanks for the suggestions.

Someone already has Ogletree. =(

The 49rs is a rivalry I respect though. Keep an eye on the WRs in your league. I don’t think there is a winning strategy in this made up game but I would aim to have more WR than RB in your league. THey simply score more pints and play more positions.
Also, since its been a long while, let me know if you want to hop in a podcast.

I picked up some WR. Will see if they pan out. =D
Ohh, I have Xenosaga on my to play list.
You guys Guild Wars 2 at all? Cus thats what I’ve been playing. =P
September 16th, 2012 at 10:35 am
I don’t do the Guild Wars but you can talk about it. Xenosaga gets good later on, I really liked it.
September 17th, 2012 at 9:42 am
There are just too many games. ~sigh~ But I will get to Xenosaga someday.
You guys are all console right? No PC games?
I could come discuss GW2. =)
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:27 am
We can talk Borderlands 2, Torchlight 2, or GW2. Up to you. I have PC and Torchlight 2. TitaniumBasher across all systems. We are looking at recording Nov 3 at the earliest. So by that time we will be playing something new anyway. Let me know if that date is good for you.
Good luck on Sunday.

I’m happy to weigh in on all subjects. =)
I wonder have you guys discussed all the girl gamer hating thats been going on?
September 25th, 2012 at 9:07 pm
We have not actually. Is there such a thing going on? Due to a double booking, Sat Oct 6 is doable. Can I pencil you in for that date at 2pm EST?
September 26th, 2012 at 6:13 pm
Hmm October is generally bad for me. 6th is totally out. Next time maybe?
October 27th, 2012 at 7:44 am
Apologies for the long response time. Oct has been bad for me too. A lot of double bookings. I’ll get back to you soon. Mid Nov is looking more likely.
October 27th, 2012 at 7:44 pm
No worries. =)
Feel free to email etc.
