Vevmo Fantasy Football: 2012

[QUOTE=TheFeedMachi;324982]There were a ton of high scorers this week, but the game with the 2 teams with the best records could have their point totals for this week combined be outscored by 6 different teams.[/QUOTE] Welcome to the fabulously random world of Fantasy Football!

[QUOTE=Aereas;324990]Welcome to the fabulously random world of Fantasy Football![/QUOTE] Big game tonight. I want to see Brees sky it out to Moore and you need last minute addition Thomas to have the ground game of his life.

Heh.... it could happen. But I wasn't trying to win this week. I made a deal to attempt to get *** Clowns to lose and it didn't pan out.

Why weren't you trying to win this week? It is tough to come back from a 3-6 record with 5 weeks left.

I wasn't exactly trying to lose, but Zombie Squirrels asked me to help him out with some bye-week replacements. That was a win for me as his opponent was my division leader. The guys I gave him were barely projected to do better than the WW options I used. And it would have worked out for me if SOMEONE HADN'T PLAYED CARSON PALMER WHEN THEY HAD NO BUSINESS DOING THAT!!! Huff huff huff... I'm not bitter though. That's life in FF hehe.

So far it looks like playing Ben over Vick was a great call

So I objected to the most recent trade because of the obvious collusion involved.

[QUOTE=TheFeedMachi;325104]So I objected to the most recent trade because of the obvious collusion involved.[/QUOTE] Obvious collusion is obvious. I objected as well. Aereas has been at the forefront of shady deals all season...

It's a fair deal by the numers... shrug. If it gets knocked down, I'll work something else out. Eventually something will get approved through the CBSsports office if you guys make a habit out of objecting.

[QUOTE=Aereas;325111]It's a fair deal by the numers... shrug.[/QUOTE] It's less about the numbers and more about the fact that you traded these exact same players with each other last week. You didn't start any of the players you acquired in the trade, while Zombie used Fred Jackson with his RB being out and Calvin Johnson with Kerley out on bye. It is the very definition of collusion and I will object to any and all attempts to get your players back.

When I first saw the trade last week, I was confused because it seemed like an even trade and no upgrade anywhere. Now that I see that collusion was involved, I voted to reject the trade.

I see Aereas decided to double down on the collusion and try to swap players for a week with 2 teams in 1 week.

Collusion involves illegal or deceitful agreements. What we did isn't illegal, and I've been up front about it so it's hardly deceitful. Hence, not collusion. As far as rejecting the trades, go right ahead. Both were better deals for me than the other guy anyway... kekekekeke!! It actually makes sense for you to reject any deal involving *** Clowns & Zombie Squirrels, because those are two of the three teams that have a chance to win the finals. Now if only you can find a way to screw Wallflowers too!!!

The fact this is even being defended is laughable IMO

You're right... I was forgetting hehe. It's worth pointing out though that Wallflowers should be up about another 115-120 pts in total scoring though. Well I'm resolved to play Gore & Welker this week. I know, it's a tough sell when I could have Calvin Johnson and his 1400 TDs! Oh wait, that was last year's Megatron. With the players I have on my roster right now, I have a reasonable chance to win this week! My guys are very good at underperforming by 30-50 pts though, so we'll see. Cody, what WAS your team name going to be?

Holy **** Copples is alive! WW activity sighted!!

It's kind of sad that after the obvious player swapping collusion, we couldn't get the 4 votes needed to nullify the trades. I guess it didn't help that 2 of the 5 active players were in on the collusion.

Yeah I'm a little bummed myself. I would have loved to use Welker/Gore this week! On a positive note B, your rancor is supplying the half of the league that I work with (the guys who all knew about these trades the entire time) with some amusement, so keep on grumblin'! :evilgrin:

Well, I hate Dwayne Bowe. Nothing worse than losing the week with a 4th and 15 pass completion with 15 seconds left in the game. I am going to bed and hoping that Dwayne Bowe miraculously fumbles in OT.

I approve this message... [url=http://vevmo.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=14969][img]http://vevmo.com/imagehosting/150a2542653938.gif[/img][/url]

Well, I got lucky and won my other league. Not making an excuse for my loss this week, just saying how much it hurts. Going into this week, I thought my other team was going to get smashed, and I ended up winning by nearly 40 points.

Mmm there's a conspiracy afoot to rob me of the one thing I've had going for me this year.. coach's rating. I dropped from 1st to 5th this week... who the **** authorized my bench players to overachieve by 55 pts this weekend!?!?

Since when did I become 6-4? Oh that's right, since I've actually been winning! :D

All 4 teams about to be over .500, let the Eastern bloodbath begin!

[QUOTE=bgstl77;326872]All 4 teams about to be over .500, let the Eastern bloodbath begin![/QUOTE] The Eastern Division is stacked. Just isn't fair. There isn't a weak team to feast on in division games like the Central and West divisions.
