Loved the article, as I am sure any Bear fan would. Thanks for posting the link.

Ok, need opinions.... I drafted a team for FF that is hosted for the Company I work for. I decided instead of playing in 6 FF Leagues this year, because of things going on at work and home, I would only play 2, one for work, one for this forum. My 1st draft was a few weeks ago and after making a trade and picking up a few players cut by one crazy guy, I would up with the below lineup. I would love your opinions if you do not mind. Keep in mind there was one guy who was absent and blew his prerankings for autodraft and wound up with 7 QBs on a 17 man roster. He insists he did this to terade them for players. He wants too much for them. So it was hard to wind up with 2 good QBs unless you drafted them too early. We start 1 QB 2 RB 3 WR 1 RB/WR 1 TE 1 K 1 D/ST with high scoring format and PPR I picked 10th in a ten team league, thus went with a stud WR theory. Donovan McNabb PHI (4) Shaun Hill SFO (6) (plays STL in SF Wk 4, I love the matchup, picked as FA, dropped Robiski) (Flacco, Penninton, Campbell, and CLE QB? are available as FA but think S Hill might be best option for week 4) Ronnie Brown MIA (6) Joseph Addai IND (6) Donald Brown IND (6) Handcuff & Sleeper Ray Rice BAL (7) Marshawn Lynch BUF (9) (Picked up on Waiver Wire, dropped Betts)(should be good after returning in week 4) Larry Fitzgerald (ARI (4) Andre Johnson HOU (10) Wes Welker NEP (8) Anthony Gonzalez IND (6) (Traded Willie Parker to get him, IMO, a good trade? I think he will be a top 15 WR in PPR) Antonio Bryant TBB (8) (picked up on Waiver Wire, dropped Crabtree) Kellen Winslow TBB (8) Jeremy Shockey NOS (5) (Couldn't get a STUD TE, but have good TE by Committee, IMO) Nate Keading SDC (5) D/ST MIN Vikings (9) D/ST PHI Eagles (4) Plan on playing DEF by Committee, these two meld good for matchups. I should have all BYE Weeks covered unless injuries crop up except for Kicker which is no big deal. Do you think my team is a strong contender despite not having the STUD RB? Be honest, I have time to trade but I always seem to regret trades I make in FF later in the season. I have had some real bad trades in the past.

LOL, you saved me some searching, I was curious what their reactions were.

Ok, I am Paid in Full. Are we going to move the draft start time up a few hours?

My Bad, I entered the attempts and completions in reverse order, ouch, his rating was 106.1

I love the fact we pulled Cutler & Forte, they have nothing to prove and we do not need either getting injured.

LOL, you might be right. I was using a calculator at: http://www.footballguys.com/qbrating.htm Maybe they have a glich in it, ;-)

2 weeks in a row, 17-3 at half time. We have not allowed a TD in the last 6 quarters. Cutler's QB Rating for the 1st half 180.1 We are having a chance to play in a loud away stadium with a 3-4 defense. Good prep for GBP.

I agree for him to be #3, but only as a free agent, like you said, I would not trade for him.

#3, no problem, welcome aboard, #2, forget it, like you said, I like H.

Zip, Zero, do not want him at all.

Man am I loving this, LOL.

Yea, sure, we will see about that.

I would be fine with that.

LOL If we could be finished no later than 8PM that would be great. The earlier the better. Heck, if everyone wants I would start at 7 AM, LOL

The website is fine by me. I have off on Mondays, but get up quite early on Tuesdays to get ready for work. The earlier the better. That is why I would have preferred a Saturday night or a Sunday. If we stay put on Monday, I need it to be earlier than 8PM Central.

You guys are out of my league, I am down to white T-Shirts and permanent markers, LOL.

I am sure DaBearsDaBomb would be willing to sell a link to their site for a reasonable fee to help with the costs involved with running the sites he hosts for us.

Nope, was thinking about it, but I did not ban him. Hoping he will stop all the spam and contribute in the proper way to the discussions on the forum. I have nothing against the guy, just do not like others using this forum to spam it's members in order to try and get traffic to their website. This is not a portal to advertise others websites and I do not think the posters here appreciate it.

You already have. It is the same site Rush23 keeps spamming our site with links to articles that we have all taken exception to for content and creditability. Now if zack54attack is wanting to participate as a regular poster on the forum, fantastic, welcome aboard. If this is just to spam our site as Rush23 does, I have reservations.

NFL Network 6 PM Central Sunday 23rd - Replay minus commercials.

Cutler's QB Rating for tonight: 117.8 Not a bad night. If Hester had been able to catch the long one, WOW.

DrunkBomber, are you going to be League Treasurer? I would have no objection to you holding the $$$$ for me until I smoke all of you this year We do need to set up a treasurer and get the money paid up. I do not care who is the caretaker, as long as they have PayPal. I would prefer not to be the treasurer because I have a Pro Account with PayPal (have done thousands of eBay sales in the past) and would have to pay a fee to PayPal for the money received. Someone mentioned a website that does this free of charge but I have to believe on a small league like this we can take care of it in house.

On the Score they said in an interview with Burress' lawyer he was questioned about the 3 month plea bargain and the lawyer stated he does not know how this got "legs" but was totally untrue, that if it were true they would have accepted it immediately without hesitation, that the 2 year plea bargain was the best they got offered.

In an article on the Sun-Times site it quoted an interesting fact: Cutler does not perform in the first game of preseason, he has a history of bad performances in the opener: http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...club-17.article
