    The guy is no doubt a special talent. It's suprising that he got away from LSU, I guess he was just determined to go to L.A. and be the next Reggie Bush.

    he takes a lot of flack in LA

    <t>word is, he's lazy and takes plays off. I've heard this from Trojans and Trojan haters (also known as reasonable people) alike. He has great talent, but we'll see about that heart.</t>

    My running backs did pretty well today but the rest of my team was pretty average at best stat wise and Florida started the other kicker and TE instead of the ones I thought would start so that hurts as well. BT's kicker went wild with the FGs vs. Y-state...which is pretty unusual.

    I think when the points are tallied that BT has his first FF win by a solid margin. Congratulations BT!

    Does anyone's CBS Sportsline site work for the fantasy football?

    My league scores are not updating at all.

    They are current now. Tom is sand baggin the sh*t outta me this week. :)

    I am also slightly frustrated in that I wanted to add some true freshman that I figured would see starting, or featured roles, but they aren't even listed by CBS.


    Grrrrr

    Terry,

    That's for sure! I should never have signed up for this.

    Don,

    You will get the hang of it over time. You'll even find yourself enjoying it as you follow kids and teams you wouldn't have cared about otherwise. One thing to do is check the 'walk on' list to replace some guys if you feel you have some dead weight on your club. Also, make sure you keep an eye on who has a bye week and who doesn't on your roster. Lastly, you could always try to trade people for players you do want.


    Terry,

    You watch.. One of life's cruel jokes is about to take place.. Not only will the 'dead in the water' Bruins get their arse handed to them tomorrow, but Tom will wind up dropping 130+ points because his lineup is made up almost entirely of Vols...

    Worse than that.. my lone remaining player who can earn points for me is the Vols starting TB... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    I'm just screwed all the way around.

    In a perfect world... UT's RB rushes for 200 yards with 4 TDs, but their QB throws 5 INTs not returned for TDs but rather UCLA racks up just enough yards and scores enough points to beat UT in some crazy 36-34 shootout.. Otherwise, my Monday is totally going to suck.

    Don,

    I noticed that you only had 7 active players in your lineup for this week's games.....you are allowed to play 2 Rb's and 3 WR's. You only lined up 1 RB and 2 WR.....you were playing with 2 fewer guys on the field than was everybody else! :shock:

    Add another Rb and WR to your active roster and your production will increase dramatically!

    Hey...I supposedly know what I'm doing but I started a kicker and TE who rode the pine on Sat netting me zero points for both. :oops:

    I guess I should read the rules, but with no knowledge and effort I did pretty good...so I'm thinking a little knowledge could be dangerous!! :)

    By the way....Mc Knight did pretty well but Lucky and Unga did better.

    I am happy with my running backs and Tebow will get his numbers most Saturdays.

    The WRs are a different story however.

    Corey,

    Your defense is showing zero points. Did Virginia run it up and down the field and just not score ro what's up?

    I'm wondering if all of the USC stats are off the board for a little bit?
    My stats for Sanchez were in place until Monday, then they disappeared.

    Hopefully it will be cleared up before the stats are made final.
