  I had to choose between Gio, SJax, Spiller, and Helu.  Yes, I made the wrong decision too, but only because I couldn't bench them all.

  Just some venting here guys, nothing more nothing less.  Show me an owner who has never vented and I'll show you the Lockness Monster.

  
  

  I've known Chucky a while, I'm pretty sure he wasn't blaming anyone for his start sit.  I think he was just illustrating his bad luck that he wasn't the only one who thought sitting AP was a good idea in leiu of the other two guys.

  Yeah, I don't see this post as Chucky doing what's suggested. He blames no one. He is just venting.

  But, there is nothing better than checking your email and seeing that awesome future-driven-dynasty-building trade offer was accepted. Dynasty leagues are the cure and remedy for all inseason downsides.

  I started Vick (-1) over Cam (28) and lost by 10. I was pissed then my dad had a heart attack and I didnt care one bit anymore. Things can always be much worse than a bad fantasy week.

  
  

  PS - Dad is doing good.

  Somehow I have the chance to be 6-2.  I am up by 17 with Seattle D left to play and he has Lynch.  I've scored the 3rd most points in the league, haven't figured out how that is possible.  Had to start Khiry and Jacquizz at RB this week.  Pathetic!  My team is down Martin, Spiller, and Cobb and every FA decision I've made has been horrible.  I have this overwhelming urge to trade Brees, Welker and Gonzalez to the real contenders for draft picks or young guys but I just hate giving up.  Then again how much longer can this charade last?      

  12 Team Dynasty PPR - 28 man roster
  Brees, Manuel, Locker, Mallett
  Spiller, Martin, DRichardson, Miller, Michael
  Welker, Cobb, Ant. Brown, Washington, Britt, Thompkins
  Gonzalez, Rudolph, Sudfeld

  the plan?....the plan is we have wanted to do this for YEARS...I have an 8th grader and a 2nd grader and we didn't want to move the 8th grader once he hits high school...the time is now or never...so we both quit our jobs and sold ALL off our stuff cause it turned out to be WAY to expensive to move and we are now gonna jump on a plane Monday...LMAO...we have reserved two weeks from my parents time share to make the transition....its ballzy...a little crazy...but exciting...my wife has been a registered nurse for 10 years and a few months ago got her Hawaii license...both kids are already enrolled in a private school...as of today NEITHER of us have jobs but that shouldn't be a problem cause both our skills translate decently to the job market....I guess my bottom line is...when your on your death bed reflecting life at the end of your life you wish you took less chances...life is short and hopefully it works out....aloha :D

  Chucky I've known u guys for years. I have to say it's pretty crappy that u reposted the topic just to show us who did you a favor by giving u their opinion. If your going to do that maybe you shouldn't ask. Do you always suggest the right players? Not a chance. Worse part is they both played like crap. Thats ridiculous. Stop your crying throw yourself under the bus not people spending time to give their opinions.

  Who sits Adrian Peterson?

  
  
  I did and 3 lads from this site recommended it 

  
  
  I promise you I was not one of them. He set a record against the pack last year. Plus he's AP... I started Gronk also, and got schooled.

  
  
  No you weren't WTCM, but, the lads who recommended it are guys I respect. Of course AP's touchdown was done all by himself

  
  
  I disagree with your assessment. The theme of this thread was not I hate getting bad advice. The concept behind it was I hate it when nothing goes right as it did yesterday and is happening tonight as the Rams FINALLY decided to play defense against the two players I have in the game

  
  

  But, if it sounded to you like I was throwing them under the bus, then I regret that you came to that conclusion. I said (above) I respect those lads. If I didn't I would not have thanked them for their advice in another thread. Actually, I had already made the decision to sit AP, prior to even asking for advice. In fact if you read everything I wrote, I said I would make the same decision, based upon the information available

  Sorry to hear about your dad JR. I am guessing that he is somewhere around my age (61). Glad to hear he is doing better

  Its just the way it rolls man. Very annoying in deed. Imo, you started your best lineup and theres nothing more you could do. If only we were fortune tellers. Its not like AP had a blow up game. Very average.

  
  
  He is such a great talent WASTING HIS TIME in Minnesota

  
  
  Chuckey!!! I just realized your profile pic is Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes!!! I LOVED that comic when I was a kid. Hah, sorry to interrupt. Carry on

  
  
  Yes it is... and just like Calvin, most of the time I spend on FF amounts to little more than picking my nose

  Never blame anyone else for your decisions except yourself! When you ask for someones opinion on DC that's what it is, their opinion nothing more! "It's fantasy" and you play to win the game! Just like your wife saying you'll get lucky tonight does not in anyway mean that you'll actually get any!
