A little late... but don't forget to set lineups before gametime today!

I was hoping to have the tropies caught up by now, but it took me eons just to do week 5 because of that nightmare-ish ESPN site.

Hopefully I'll get them done by next weekend

Thanks for not rubbing it in, Minty.

No problem; maybe you'll remember next week

Post by **inSTAALed** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 1:58 am

We can always hope, eh?

BTW, did you ever give me my point for 900 posts? I remember asking you in that one PM but I don't remember if you ever did it.

Yeah I did; I could subtract it and put you at 14 again if you like to "lose on points" to me twice in the same day but that's probably a bit cruel

Hmm...

Yeah that's kinda cruel but I suppose you're the boss.

Okay guys, don't forget that lineups need to be set before the player's games kick off tommorow so that's noon MintyTime for the first set of games

I cant believe this. I lost both C. Portis and K. Jones...two of my best point producers. Which caused me to lose my second game of the season. Darn it!

Welcome to the high profile injuries club

I've got McNabb out for the season.

Couldn't do my team this week because I was in Ohio.

I suppose I picked a bad week to go celebrate Thanksgiving, eh?

Well Senor Stinson it comes down to you and it comes down to me...

We've been trading scoring accolades all year so it's fitting we've battle our way from opposite sides of the bracket to settle things once and for all. We'll see who is still standing when the smoke clears

Post by **B. Stinson** » Tue Dec 12, 2006 11:35 pm

If you're one for early predictions - I added up our players' weekly averages to get a prediction for the score of our game(I've done this for myself for just about every week of the TBL Football season

). IR players and 'Out' players not included.

Lakesiders (9-3).......... 189.9
Regiment (11-1).......... 210

Can't wait to see how it actually ends up!

Yeah, I'd feel much more confident if I had McNabb in there still.

Maybe LT will be so tired from last week he'll ask to take the next game off

It's going to be a war

Looks like you're taking it this year, Minty.

This is probably the worst week my team has had all season(with perfect timing

). I predicted that the Giants would kill us(Eagles), so I benched L.J. Smith and Reggie Brown to keep only the Eagles' best receiver - Stallworth(thinking he would be the only one getting points). Sure enough, L.J. and Brown dominated our offense, while Stallworth wasn't even mentioned the whole game. So even with a dominant win from the Eagles, none of the points came from the guys I needed them to come from... and because of that, the Giants defense, who I have, was terrible. Basically, the most important game for my team was the one that worked so perfectly against me.

Oh well... I'll be back next year!

I am not real happy to have to disagree with you here Stinty... I'm fairly sure you've got me after my RBs crapped out and yours (again) dominated. Looking at it I don't see much other possibility than tonight's game leading to your winning our matchup

LT is just a god

I made some great moves really, I changed from Young to Leinart (+7) and changed from KC's d (see the preeceeding LT being a god statement) to the Bills who got a shutout (another +7) and made the best choices I could have at my RB/WR slots but REggie Bush putting up all of two points and the LT v LJ head to head matchup ending in a -23 affair for my side has sealed my fate I think... If only I still had McNabb

So you only need 9 points and have Carson Palmer and Marvin Harrison still live for tonight... stick a fork in my Lakesiders it would seem.

Post by **B. Stinson** » Mon Dec 18, 2006 8:25 pm

Yeah, I guess I jumped the gun.

I posted in the middle of the Chargers game, and I didn't think LT would kill again... I was still stuck on how badly my Eagles v Giants plan worked out. Right before I went up to bed(after the game), I went to ESPN expecting to see you have a bigger lead than before... only to realize that I was within 9, and needed only 5 points each from two good players.

I'm goin' to Disney World!

...Since the Flyers are embarrassing me this year, I oughta dedicate a new avatar to the 506th.

Post by **Minstrel** » Tue Dec 19, 2006 10:35 pm

Congratulations; and I sure can't complain much with Harrison post what was it 26 points?? Yeah, you got me you definately were packing the Big Guns all year

way to go!

Enjoy your first TBL Trophy award soon to be added
