After picking up Ryan Grant very early in the season in the main event, I lost patience and dropped him...a couple weeks before he exploded.

Only a matter of time before he was going to break down. :( ...honestly now, how many times are you going to get this wrong?...Javon was NOT hurt before the regular season began...the proof was in his first two games of the season which were indeed injury-free and look at the production there...you are referencing a single benign incident in camp that had NO significance whatsoever to Javon's injury some seven weeks later...if you don't believe SNAKE here simply ask TK...thanks much for finally getting this right henceforth...SNAKE
[/QUOTE]Snake,

If I "tweak" my hamstring, but play a few more weeks and then it finally has "had enough" and it pops, wouldn't you consider that a pre-cursor to my now more significant injury???

Now, lets use Walker's example;

He "tweaked" the SAME KNEE HE HAD ACL surgery on before the season, and you say "it didn't matter"? :confused:

Snake, we all know you rarely admit when you make a mistake, and in the rare occasion that you do, there is a laundry list of excuses that come with it, so I won't argue with you about this anymore.

Denial truly is a lonely road. :(

Ced Benson in 2nd and mcnabb over Brady in 4th. I always draft brady except last year of course. Could have had great team in last years main if not for these two brutal mistakes. I drafted big Ben in 11th, Engram in 12th, and dallas clark in 14th. Sundays kinda sucked last year.

My biggest REGRET is deciding to start Reuban Droughns as my Flex player in that horrible rain-soaked game in London against the Dolphins in Week 8. Brandon Jacobs was questionable, and Droughns was supposed to be the primary ball carrier and the goal line back in a game that was supposed to be all about running the football.

Droughns ended up with 27 total yards, no TD's, and no receptions. I lost my head-to-head matchup by a few points, and I would've won it had I chosen my other Flex option instead (can't remember who that was).

No big deal, right? Well, I ended up 12-1 for the year and that one decision cost me the distinction of being the only team in NFFC history to go 13-0 during the regular season. :mad:

I'm definitely a Droughns-hater now.
