Week 5 "Who Do I Start" (WDIS)?

Counting my local league (which I spend about 5 minutes a week on), I also have 18 to manage each week....AINT IT FUN? :D

I think Burton may be out today, but if not, I suppose I would start him, as Wayne is right, Edelman won't be a factor if Welker is active (and since it is late, you won't know).

Here's one for you that is also a little sad...I need one of these two fantastic RB's to give me 8-10 points this week...

Bernard Scott or Shonn Greene

vs. vs.
Ravens Dolphins punt. ;)

Honestly, Greene will get more touches, so I would go with him.

[/QUOTE]UNBELIEVABLE FUN!!!! Throw in my Terminator team and my Draft Championship teams in here & with the FFPC and I have 25 teams this year.
I may have gotten slightly carried away with my first year in High Stakes huh? My wife always says I have OCD..... :D

I have two local leagues I play every year....I'm doing very well there as always.
I'd say the biggest headache I've encountered in the jump from local leagues to high stakes is FAAB. I just haven't been able to guage the right bid values yet. Week after week, I up my bids on the guys I really want....and week after week I still get outbid (as you know this week as you outbid me on MM....ya bast**d ya.... ;) ).
This is part of the reason I'm stuck starting guys like Burton today..... :( .

I'll probably cut down some on the amount of leagues I do next year. I thought I could handle the amount of prep because I was able to handle six teams in baseball this year, and that's daily while football is only weekly.
Still, I'm one of those guys who can't help but prep for all the teams each day.....again, that OCD thing rears its ugly head.

All that aside, its still as much fun as it gets.....and Sundays....it doesn't get any better than that.

Good luck today & catch you soon,
Glenn

Glenn,

I went from 16 leagues last year to 9 this year. Since I was playing in all 4 of the high stakes leagues I didn't want to be distracted by having too many teams. This seems to be a good number so I'll probaby have 8 next year.

One thing that has helped me out is that most of my teams are all on the nffc site so I don't have to move around from one site to the next (except for wcoff main and ffpc main.) I dropped my local leagues this year and honestly don't miss them at all.

Wayne Wayne.....looking at how ridiculously well you're doing this year, I think you've landed on the perfect amount of teams...... ;) .

As far as my local teams, I play more because of the friendships and tradition....I've been playing in both for years. Plus, one of the leagues holds its draft at Hooters.... :D .

Good luck today,
Glenn
