please, remember I'm drafting 4u
It bothers me a little bit that you're not reminding people to check their scoring systems before deciding on QB or RB for your top pick. In one of my leagues, for instance, 13 QBs outscored the top RB last year overall. And that RB was Tiki Barber (Tomlinson was 3rd RB overall). I'm not saying anything about quality of these scoring systems, just pointing out that they do exist. Your information is great, just commenting on giving picks for people.
Checking your scoring system should be a given, Like there are a few that the RB's get 6 points a TD and a QB gets 4. I have been using the Standard scoring system for all my comments, its pretty similar to what Yahoo uses and ESPN. As for the comment on how I think the Chiefs or Bears do on the season, I DON'T CARE! If the bears end up being 0-16 and the Chiefs are 8-8 I could care less! I don't care if they win a single game, remember this is fantasy football not football, I care only about players, offensive player mostly. I just want players to score as many points a possible, win or loose.
good show -I like how you keep reminding that you need transition sound bites
-without even looking: 2 SF49 WRs lloyd and morten-
Yeah, your right this is about what players to draft or pick up -it doesn't matter if they win or loose here, just if they get you points.
-I haven't thought about how KC's D could take away from the offence being as productive and possibly running even more to grind away time. I think it's a good call on Boerigter, he did great a couple years ago then was hurt in a pre-season game last year, but right now he's buried below 4 other WRs -he's not draftable -like the rest of KC's WR corps (maybe you could pick up Kennison or Hall super late).
I watch KC and care about their wins and loses, but Wins and Loses don't equal fantasy points. This is about fantasy points, and who are the good fantasy players to pick up. There are good players on shitty teams and shitty players on good teams. Fantasy is about the players not the teams. If you can seperate your fantasy team from your favorite team odds are you will do better.
-by the way eball, there are 17 weeks but each team plays 16 games.
Let's see, you crack on Cris Carter for being too obvious with his TE analysis and yet you start your show by offering the world-shattering insight that fantasy players should avoid the rookie quarterback Alex Smith on last year's pathetic, 2-14 49ers.
Gee thanks. Should I avoid Koren Robinson with my first pick too?
I would suggest you lay off the smug, self-satisfied tone until you upgrade the quality of your own show.
And yes I COULD name the top three San Francisco WRs without looking them up - its too bad you couldn't.
YEAH BRING IT, I love these pussies who put in fake names and email or use Anonymous. Its also funny they people can't understand sarcasm. I also don't know if I have ever had a smug tone to me, have I? I take ALL comments good or bad, but ONLY from real people. Anonymous
I see your ability to accept criticism is equal to your podcasting skills.
If you think you weren't being self-satisfied, smug, and hypocritical then I invite you (and everyone else) to listen again to the first few minutes of your podcast for 8-12-05.
But I'm guessing you'd rather just call me another name.
Finally, I am a "real person" just like everyone else who posts here. Would my observation be more valid to you if I chose a "fake name" like 'devil's advocate' or 'the real'?
I'm guessing its not my anonymity that touched your nerve.
Thats cool but its hard to get excited when you don't know who your talking with. Anonymous just does not do it for me. Come, join the gang, be part of the group. All theser guys, The Real, Atlanta Cracker, etc are real people and part of our little stupid community, I welcome you to come and join the fun negative or not. As for my podcasting skills, I have none, I make more fun of myself then anyone could possibly, I know the show sucks but 900+ people seem to like it. You downloaded it, if you don't like it, unsubscribe, thats the beauty of Podcasting its OP-In, OP-Out.
You had said on your podcast that you wanted comments, both good and bad, so I was surprised when I was called a pussy for my negative, but honest, comment.
I do appreciate the attempt at detente and I will close with the a similar observation that you can choose to consider or ignore my input as well.
-Cris Carter
Alex? is that you acting like your Cris Carter? There's no need to be upset cause your a rookie on the worst NFL football team. Plus, I would hope you would know 3 of your WRs! Why don't you throw to them every once in a while! by they way, do you think any of them will get more the 10 TDs, will they even get 10 between them?
I'm the one who called Cris Carter's story crap! and it was! He sure could find the endzone but when it came to writing about TEs he should have outsourced it.
by the way C2
Don't get it in your head that you were posting a crit of the pod cast. you came to the site just to be rude and verbally attack him. And now you act this passive aggressive little weasel that is trying to twist it into him attacking you for your criticism.
I've and other listeners have posted many crits of the show, and none of them where as rude as yours, and I too would take offence if it were directed at me.
Grow up.
The Real,
Turn around, you missed the point.
The point was not that Cris Carter's article was not painfully obvious. It was.
The point was, it is the height of hypocrisy to sarcastically ridicule Carter's article for being painfully obvious while, in nearly the same breath, delivering just as painfully obvious information (Alex Smith isn't a good fantasy pick).
You can't have it both ways. If you're going to ridicule someone's fantasy analysis you open yourself up to the same criticism.
I think this would be a much better podcast if it didn't resort to holding other people's fantasy analysis up to derision and focused on delivering its own unique perspective.
Do you disagree?
i disagree with your tactics.
this is more than just a pod cast. If you would check the blog, you would see that there are no comments to that Alex artical, other than bullshit ones. Some he comments on others he leaves out there for others to comment on.
So you crit of the show is: "Interesting show, you have some okay but obvious things that you talked about, could you go deeper?"
you don't have to be an ass about it
being anonumous is so in style right now
I want to be anonymouASS
can we start anonym-ass club!?
can we!
can we!
we can throw stones at them, and then laugh and point!
then we could get tired of being anonymous and I can be anonymous-1 and you can be anonymous-2, and so on and so forth. It would be like... college
I love flame wars, hey Guys, lets give annonman a break, I just hate annonamass posters thats all, I think his points are valid, remember I do this for free and for fun, lets not tkae ourselves too seriously. I just like a name to a face, by the way, I'm Annomass-4
I am a casual fantasy player, but I have played for about 3 years now. There is one common factor that the winner in every league has shared. Some might say a good running back or a good quarterback or just a good overall team, which none of the above hurts. But the one thing you NEED in my opinion is a healthy team. You can have all the superstars in the world, but more often than not, a mediocre team will beat a much more talented team if that team is injury proned. Example, McGhee is a great running back, but is his ACL going to hold up for many years? Conversely, Brett Favre, as much as I hate him being a Bears fan, may not put up fantastic numbers, but you know he will be there to play. I'm not saying I would pick Favre over McGhee, just an exaggerated point. Just something to think about and maybe address in your next podcast possibly. Are there certain injury proned players or positions? Maybe invest more in a good backup RB, even at the expense of a good WR? There many issues dealing with injuries you could bring up, I jsut havent seen it addressed yet. Keep up the great shows.
