...well since no one feels it necessary to respond to just about any of my posts or fanmails I think i'm going to give this up finally.

just kidding, moving on, this weeks bye week offenders are as follows:

Mustangs- 2 players (1 last week; you improved last week from 2 down to 1 player and now you're back to two again, what's up ?)

Irish- 2 players (exact same as mustangs, are you two planning this or what ?)

Both of you are practically giving teams wins; teams that are in my same division and I don't really appreciate it and no one else should either. moving on...

and our winner for worst bye-week errors so far this season is: (drumroll please): The Detroit Lions who had 4, count 'em, 4 players on bye this week and chose to leave them ALL in his starting lineup giving a possible win away to his opponent!!!

c'mon man you improved from 2 weeks ago and only had 1 bye week player left in your starting lineup accidentally last week and now you've got 4 !!!??? that's a huge step back for you man, what's up ?

***the only good news is that our offenders shrunk from 4 last week to 3 this week, which is good of course. comments ? thoughts ? questions ?

thanks,

Falcons G.M./Coach/Owner

Not trying to be a jerk but i don't take kindly to easy, gift wins, never have, never will. Others in this league should speak up and follow suit. My opponent this week, Irish, had 4, count 'em, 4 players in his lineup that didn't play and his kicker was on a bye week !!! This is INEXCUSEABLE and constant behavior like that has gotten people kicked out of my other league for good. If you don't care, don't play, we'll find someone else who wants to. If you do care and can't get to a computer call a friend to help you out or do something. I can see one player, maybe even 2, but 5!? 5!? are you serious ?! Losman, Johnson, and Ward were both graded as "O" or OUT this week no later than FRIDAY. It's not like these were all game-time decisions like some of my players were (my team is banged up too). Ahman Green didn't play either as ESPN correctly reported him as "D" Doubtful on FRIDAY and the kicker on a bye not replaced w/ someone, anyone at all? That's just lazy. Pick someone else up. My God you should have beaten me for all intents and purposes. My team sucked this week !!!

As for the rest of you there are 5, yes, 5 others who are guilty of this BS too. Combine them w/ Irish and that's 6, which is, say it with me, HALF THE LEAGUE !!! HALF !!! I've never, ever seen this big of a one-week disater in my entire fantasy football existence. Here's the rest of the list w/ the 2nd worst of the week behind Irish at the top:

Superior Mustangs- 3 players on bye weeks that were starters for you
Lions- 2 players
Superior Spartans- 1 player
Kings- 1 player
Panthers- 1 player

That's it for my tirade so for those that want to lay into me now's your chance, fire away, but this is BS and no one should be happy about this. There are tons of free agents out there to fill-in or bench players for that matter too; there is no excuse for this. If this is going to continue count me out of the league for next year and change the name for good because this certainly isn't "Elite" behavior, period.

also, i thought we made this group here on fannation so we wouldn't have to use the espn page that much but no one is using either !!!

i just saw on my box score i have 2 points because of the "home field advantage" ?

i've never seen this and i don't have it in my other espn league.

where did it come from and more importantly does everyone agree with having it or what ?

i don't know if i like it because who wants to be tied or up by one and then lose because of those 2 free-bee points ?

i wouldn't want to win or lose by those 2 free points, it takes the skill out of the game.

i don't know why i bother writing this because no one is active on here or our group on fannation anyway except me and like 1 or 2 others so i don't except any feedback from most of the league anyway.

when i get some feedback maybe i'll put up a poll about the 2 points thing or someone else can, whatever works for you guys !
