replied to Which Keepers for my pool???? in Fantasy Sports no, no loss of picks for keepers.....been a sticking point for years but the dude running it dont want that, Im all for it View Post \| View Thread	Homegrown_01	9	August 10, 2014 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Which Keepers for my pool???? in Fantasy Sports well we just did our draft order and I claimed first pick so this changes everything one of the owners had Lacy and Forte last year and will be throwing one back in the mix so as it stands I am leaning on keeping Ryan, AJ, Graham and draft Forte or Lacy first over all since they will be best available I agree with Biz there is just as much to say Ball will falter as there is saying he will explode, he is coming off appendectomy which gives CJ ANderson and Hillman all the juice in pre season Ball has been good not great in pass protection therefore if the Back cannot keep Manning on his feet he will not be in there Had Gio had the RB gig all to himself it would be a no brainer View Post \| View Thread	Homegrown_01	9	August 08, 2014 View Post \| View Thread

created a topic Which Keepers for my pool???? in Fantasy Sports hey All just looking for some advice as to which 3 keepers to keep here my pool is a 10 man pool we start 2qb's 2rb's 3wr's 1te, 1k, 1d 6pt/ all td, .5/recept, 1/10 yards my choices to choose from based on my team last year are C.Kaepernick M.Ryan Gio Bernard Monte Ball AJ Green J.Graham Like I said I only listed the viable ones and we can only keep 3 and we cant keep more than one at the same position Thanks View Post \| View Thread	Homegrown_01	9	August 02, 2014 View Post \| View Thread
replied to Fantasy pool rule dilemma in Fantasy Sports Quote Originally Posted by bizkilla: I dont particularly fancy the commissioners rule. I think having the ability to maneuver until kickoff Sunday and into the 4pm games as we'll is more player friendly. However, this would surely make your league more challenging. Theoretically, how often are you making pickup so deep into the week anyway? For example, if you own Jimmy Graham and he had let's say a concussion or a hamstring injury that may likely keep him out, you would have already found a replacement through waivers or wake up at 4am on Wednesday to be the first to pick through free agency. It's not as if you are going to pick up some scrub on Sunday morning. So in essence, it shouldn't make that much of an impact. but this scenario, should Dez bryant be questionable on the injury report with a concussion and a GTD, lets say your backup wr is playing Thursday night all of a sudden Dez gets ruled out at game time?? many scenarios this way to not allow for optimal lineup as I would be faced with using a scrub, taking a zero depending on depth.....injuries are huge in fantasy and I think the only way to offset is to allow pickups View Post \| View Thread	Homegrown_01	5	July 11, 2014 View Post \| View Thread
created a topic Fantasy pool rule dilemma in Fantasy Sports hey all looking forward to another great yer of fantasy here is the issue arisen in this pool Im in the commish wants to abolish all pickups once the first game of the week begins so if there is a game on Thursday, and there is weekly, he is saying no pickups allowed after that!! obviously pickups for players who have not played yet that week so we want pickups to be allowed up until 1pm on Sunday whats everyones take on this I personally think its idiotic but hes saying it makes people think more and use their roster View Post \| View Thread	Homegrown_01	5	July 10, 2014 View Post \| View Thread

replied to Waiver Wire Quarterback For This Week in Fantasy Sports okay here are my thoughts at QB for ya 1, Flacco just based on poise and talent, coming off the bye they need to get going unfortunately Haden is gonna blanket Smith 1b, keenum, I think its a bit more risky but he will pay most rewards I think hes a player and has some weapons just alone in dumping the ball off 2, mccown, I think the bears cant stop anyone on defense and will have to throw in this one the other 2 id not bother with Defense Id have to say the Bills, they are at home and can get to the QB, I dont think KC can run it up on anyone unfortunatley the bills may leave KC in good field position all day w/o a qb next choice is the rams but they are comingoff a short week and Tennessee a bye so I project Tenn putting up atleast 20 on them so id say ya throw caution to the wind and roll with Keenum and Buff View Post \| View Thread	slamspurs	5	November 03, 2013 View Post \| View Thread
