The Dolphins Make Me Cry.com - Forums

Ok listen...WAIT....I know what your thinking....who the hell is this guy....LOL anyway email is charlesschmidtfrommiami@yahoo.com Let me know when ya'll decide to make a league!





(edited to adapt subject line for season)

Wow, a Crass sighting!!!!

I do not play fantasy football or any online fantasy sports for that matter.

What are you...a communist?

;D

no I just dont like the whole idea of it. As it puts players before your favoirte team to root for

That's just a matter of self control...

somewhat but it does happen to people

"Separation of church heart and state game,"

what?

Priorities:

1.what's good for the Dolphins
2.what's good for my fantasy team
3.what's bad for any other team in the AFC East

That's why I NEVER put any Patriots on my team.

#3 has a direct effect on #1  ;D

Fantasy sports, the greatest invention since the Ginsu knife.  ;D


Thank yoooouuuuu.

Its very easy to forget about fantasy and root for your team on Sundays. 

It's another justification for my Forking over for NFL Sunday ticket!

I think I'd go nuts now if I couldn't play Fantasy football or Baseball....
I've gotten addicted.....1 year I couldn't play fantasy baseball because of things happening in my life,Baseball season wasn't the same....hmm I wonder if there are support group for fantasy withdrawl....Fantasy anonymous? :D

This baseball season looks to be the first season since 2000 (baseball or football) that I don't have any involvement in fantasy.  I'm sure I'll be fine, but I don't think I'll be as interested in the late-night finish of the Giants' vs Diamondbacks on a Tuesday night.

I bought it this past year.  It was my first full season not covering the Patriots and I sat my ass on the couch every Sunday starting at 1pm and watched the "mix" channel as much as I could.  Simply put:  Heaven.

AND you can enter your freaking fantasy team into your tuner.  Every time your player does something you get a pop up message. 

F'N awesome.  You need to do this.

That only works if you have only one or two teams... ;)

I love the NFL Ticket, and have ordered it every season since it became available (7 years now? 8?), and I can't imagine not having it. I also do the MLB Extra Innings package and the NBA Hardcourt package during those seasons, which means I am spending WAY too much money for my sports jones.

Ahh Maine I love that feature,but I wish it would give me injury updates...I start getting paranoid,when I'm not getting pop ups on certain players......I'm thinking of just dragging the laptop over to my couch this year....

I am actually going to go without the MLB extra package this season and ride on NESN, YES, Fox Sports West and the MLB network and see if that covers my needs...

OK OFFTOPIC AND OFFTOPIC and Comunists' and BASEBALL....DAMN IT JUST EMAIL ME charlesschmidtfrommiami@yahoo...please

Do we have any really serious FF players here?

^^^ Yes...and probably more than one.

We also have at least one former paid FF writer (ESPN FFL, Draftsharks.com). ;)

   Well, I'm looking for someone who would be active for a dynasty league.  ( Active meaning check in on the site & take part in the league when opinions are ask & votes are needed ) Some owners were replaced & then we started a re-draft for those owners & one of them up & quit.

Cost is only $12 Per Year.  Small prize for winning & 2nd.

If anyone would be interested let me know.

Right now they have A. Peterson & R. Wayne on their team & pick 1:01 for the rookie draft this year.

I'm seriously bad!

Actually - football wise - I do really well.  I won my money league again this year, I think it's my 5th year in a row. 

Baseball?  I can't get out of my own way.

Yeah Ummmm I just wanna play a free yahoo league or something...to that effect...I'm not looking to be a million air or even a hundred-air.

BUMP

Hey Stroke, are you sending out invites?  I haven't got mine yet.

I'm in if there is spots.

TDMMC FFL 2009 filled within 24 hrs of the initial invitations going out. Tommy, you should have gotten an invite when the rest of the league did...it was sent league-wide.

For those who weren't able to get in before this year's league filled, I'll be glad to put you on a pre-invite for next season (before current league gets re-invite), so you don't have to miss out two years in a row.

I've expanded the league to 12 teams to take in the two owners who didn't get a chance to get in. If anyone has any problem with going to 12 teams, speak now or forever hold your pizza.

Topmmy, Binge...PM me with current email address and I'll get an invitation out to you.

Done.  Check your PM box.

Justified Narcissism is ready to take championships.

Not if the Orlando Obliterators have anything to say about it. 

Whatever

I already missed out 2 years in a row because I opted out last year.

I'm just curious as to why I didn't get an invite when they were originally sent out.  Maybe there was a glitch in the system.  Sorry you had to change the league around, Stroke. 

Thanks for the invite, thought I was in. 

Thats fucked up!

Pats... Instead of proclaiming how fucked up it is that you're not in the league, how about just asking for an invitation?

StL...check your messages.

Tommy... I can't push the draft back any further on that night. If you think you may be a few minutes late, I'd make sure you've set at least the top of your draft list just in case.

I've expanded the league to 14 teams, making it the largest TDMMC FF league ever. One of the last two slots goes to StL...  Pats, if you want the final slot, you need to PM me with your email address before someone else pops up and takes it. ;)

I don't think anyone here can complain about the draft time, I shall again be joining at 1.30 am if possible :)

I'm in!  Thanks.

are you ready for some stink?!

I have still not recovered from my Rookie year in fantasy, when I did probably the worst job by a fantasy owner in the history of fantasy football, and thus, my team missed the playoffs thanks to a last week loss against AZ fin fan.

A year older, much wiser, and much more determined, I return for my second go-round.

Message Sent!

Actually we played with 14 teams in 2007 if I recall correctly. 


For a rookie, you did an excellent job.  You came very close to making the playoffs, the same can't be said for some other teams. 

Additionally, you didn't fall for my trickery when I told you the most important position in Fantasy Football is kicker.

^^^^^

Yeah, but given all the talent I had to work with, (plus I had the first pick) I should have waltzed to the championship. 

The first pick doesn't always perform up to expectations.  Additionally, there's a lot more than talent involved in playing fantasy football.  You have to factor in what team each player is up against, is he coming off an injury, are they playing in inclement weather, ect.....

Woohooo! Big draft tomorrow! Fantasy football is finally here! See you all in the war room.

what time is the draft tomorrow?  How many owners are in the league?

Draft is 8:30 tonight, and league has expanded twice to a total of 14 teams now.

We played with 14 teams in 2007.  That turned out to be a pretty competitive year for the league.

The draft order is up. :)

I can't get into the room.....the loading screen stall near the end!

3rd and stink is going to first and suck. Why did you guys let me draft Matt Ryan with my 2nd pick? I need to pay attention next time.

Interesting draft...I see a number of teams that could be playoff hunting all season.

I had to work at that day and time. 

So I had my players ranked (althought that shit never works the way you really want it to) and Yahoo picked for me.  Can't say that I'm too bummed.  I predict that my success will depend mostly on what Cutler does in Chi-town.  Believe me, I'm not holding my breath but I wouldn't count me out for the playoff hunt this year.

Well Ward gave me a 100 yard receiving game, but that fumble really hurt me. 

TGIF-S

(Thank God its Football Season)

Amen Brother!

Congrats on the close win there Binge....I out thought myself...Left all my points on the bench....If Forte could have punched it in the endzone....ohh well recoup for next week

You got a solid team going on over there B. The Eagles had the game of their lives today. I didn't deserve to win without a Quarterback.

Wow, AP goes off on one, but Stroke will probably lose because Drew Brees went of on an even bigger one.

The Narcissism is definately justified when you don't start an active QB but score 35 on Defense to win by one point!

I'm trailing by 8 with three to go but he's got 2, it should be close......oh and I have a 30 pt QB on my bench :)

^^^ I think there is a good chance that Welker, coming off the injury that sidelined him the whole preseason, will play a very limited role tonight...so hopefully I can make my current 125-123 score hold up. I sincerely hope so anyway.  ;D

WOW Andre Johnson 111yards and 2TD's 2nd qtr just started!! That should help me out this week!

^^  :D My Team has been TD-phobic...I had 0 TD's other than my QB (active roster )

Brady with only 4 points, not good.

Hasselbacks, Rib Injury just doomed my happy ass.... :-\

Every week a running back has a career game and he's on the other team. :(

It aint over yet.  I'm only up by a point.  I've got Bradshaw going right now and I'm done.  You've still got Wayne going tomorrow night.  If Bradshaw has a bad game, I'm pretty positive I lost this. 

I don't even want to think about this week, Romo, Moss, you're benched, go ride the pine!

I'm up by about 50 points on alkhol, who has Manning going tonight.  I have Ricky and Fasano going for me.

Unless Peyton has the best game in the history of quarterbacking.  I think I have this week.

Frank Gore was a huge contributor for me. 

I need 5 points out of Reggie Wayne.

Good game Stroke. See you in the playoffs buddy.

Man I played the wrong guys this week.

Holy Shit!!!!!  I had a 4 point lead and you  had Reggie Wayne going tonight and...... I BEAT YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^^^^^

you won because the Colts hardly had the ball on offense LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!

It's alright, Tim Hightower and the Lightning bug are going to light up Tommy this week :)

I'm gonna have one of those,boom or bust weeks against Hoodie... :D then the Bye week/possible injures are going to going to hit me....

I already lost.

We'll see what happens.  I'm up by 50 points but you've still got Tony Romo and Jason Whitten going tomorrow night.  Carolina's pass coverage sucks.  I'm not lighting the Cohiba up just yet. 

How Sad, I've got to root for a Cowboy,to get ohh...80 yards and 2 Td's to Tie.... :-\  I could have played my whole team,and just barely be leading :D

You need 21 points out of Felix Jones for the win.   

Yeah maybe but I ain't holding my breath my son :) Look's like my RB's didn't read their scripts this week!

Nice Win Hoodie.....

Anyone want to trade for Joe Flacco? :)

Sunstroke. imagine what your point total would be this week if you had activated Gerrard.

F this  >:(

^^^ HA! Trade ya.....I've had someone go down to injury every week....M.Hasselback,L.Robinson,F.Jones,Johnny Knox...oh yeah and the clock struck midnight on Sanchez,and he turned back into a pumpkin..... :D I'd like to have my team drug tested.....They have to be on crack.... :D Another Week, another loss... :P

I can't believe I had Mendenhall and Flacco on the bench, how many of you would have started Mendenhall over any of my other players?!

I would not have played Mendenhall unless I did not have any other choice.

I admit, I over analyse the pis out of each match up....And you're at a bit of a disadvantage being Hours ahead of us...Tough Call, Willie Parker being ruled out fairly early,Mendenhall was proably gonna get the bulk of the work (My luck he would have gotten hurt the second play of the game Lol  :D)....Having both RB's playing in the same game, I'd wait till the last minute to make the call,but Like Steelers running on San Diego's Defense,over San Deigo running on Pittsburgh defense.....

That's where being across the pond screws you,that game probably started at like 1 am for you.....

Yeah, I was in the pub with the university football team I coach with watching the early game, but I didn't see the end of the second round of games and I was a few beers to the good by the time I got back. There's no way I can watch the late game with work the next day.

^ Games that late would be awesome....out at bars getting smashed and watching games live!  It's not the same when it's 10 a.m. like it is here.  I'm having breakfast and half my friends are still asleep that early.

Good week so far

NOOOOO!! I hate losing to a Patsies fan in Fantasy. It's almost as if the patsies themselves have beaten me. Congrats on the whoopin' Hoodie.

I'm off to buy a lottery ticket.... :P
People I feel bad for tonight....
AZ,for leaving Austin Collie on his bench after he went for 250 and 2tds....
Stroke, for his Niners getting pasted....
Uk,For the career day of Roddy White pretty much saved my backside.....

My Team is so Paranoid of the end zone,it's nice to see them wake up occasionally...Good luck Uk,I'll probably score 40 points next week to even out my scoring.... :D

Damn, STL is killing it. I wish I wouldn't have been caught sleeping in the 3rd week.

I don't really know what I have to do to win a game, short of drafting all over again :) I have two decent QB's who only have good weeks when I bench them, a bunch of running backs who either get yards or TD's but rarely both. I have one star receiver who does the same and a bunch of #3 guys who rarely do anything.

Both Romo and Flacco are on the trading block, someone out there needs an improvement, make me an offer :)

I have no problems with getting my ass beat by a woman,this week.....The football gods,are fair and jsut...It's time for a score correction...I expect to score roughly 40-60 points this week..... :D

Could someone help me out in the Running Back department?

I'm putting Vernon Davis on the trading block. 

Matt Schaub might have beat me this week?  He has 38 points. Brady is going to have to have a big game for me!

Yeah and so far he's stinking out the joint ;)

B and I are playing who can score the least amount of points but still win their game.

^ that aint no shit...It was like a 5-5 game halftime of the early games.... :D I need a specatacular day out of Forte,Royal,and White....

I just got whooped 180-60 in another league. Wow.

180?  That's gotta be a record.

Nope.  I've beaten an opponent 249 - 177

Scores obviously range based on each league's scoring st, active roster slots, number of teams in your league, etc... I've been in leagues where an 80 score was awesome, and leagues where popping a 150 means your ass is getting beat badly.

^ Doesn't PPR,and IDP also equate to higher scores?  (generally)

Nice win Stl,the scores weren't terrifyingly low...Lol..I kind of figured the football gods would strike me back to earth after my great score the week before....

Finally one of my guys had a monster game, the downside is the huge Patriots win has screwed me in football pickem which I partake in with serious money riding on the #1 spot.

Stroke, your present is gracefully accepted and if I ever find myself in a bar with you, I shall purchase you a beer as a gesture of thanks :)

^^^ Beers are always appreciated, but completely unnecessary. Consider this payment for the number of matchups we've had in the past where I brought you no gift at all. ;)

That would be all the other ones then? :)

^^^ I wasn't going to say that. ;D

Besides...the only people I actually track W/L records against these days are the ESPN editorial staff and fantasy Uber glitterati.

Good week you guys.

I was gonna try to see what Stl wanted for Vernon Davis....but I'd imagine the price just went through the roof with a 3 td day today... :D

Shit went to drop my kicker for next week and didnt know that it would take him off this weeks roster.  Now I am fucked because I have no kicker and I need the points this week!

StL needs some depth at WR and/or RB.  :)

Who do u want? I have some WR?

It would have to be one of your starters.

2-5 this year.  What a disaster.

I was up 28 going into Monday's game, but that Eagle defense had like 10 sacks and a pick six to cost me the game.

Redneck Express on the trading block

Make an offer..I'm looking for RB,WR,TE,Def...

Not looking good for me this week.

Looks like I beat AZ for the first time in three tries.

d'oh Warner's horrible game killed me this week

He only had 6 turnovers....

I'd say the RB trio of Adrian Peterson, Ray Rice and Pierre Thomas was more responsible for that 30 point loss than Warner's aerial generosity, but what the heck do I know. ;)

I finally won my third game of the season.

I need to go on a major winning streak to make the playoffs. 

Playoffs?!? Playoffs?!?. Alas, I will be a spectator come the second season :(

I NEED an RB. Help!

The battle of the idiots between me and hoodie:  I have 3 players with byes going and he has 2.  I overslept on Sunday and did not have time to change my roster

Hoodies appears to have the idiot battle won, as he is down 14 with 2 good WRs going tommorow.

I am such a dumbass. 

Dear Kurt Warner,  You are forgiven for last week's debacle.  Love, StL   :-*

Another week of my Team scared of the endzone..Ohh loook the Ball Run from the ball!

Nice win Alk3hol

Just a reminder, folks...there's an early game on Thursday night, so set your roster in time!!

I had a chance but now Addai not playing, Brady is going to have to light it up for me!

I'm done for this year, but I'm going to try to ruin people's seasons.

Woooo, once I was weak at receiver, now I'm not so sure, I just need my runnings backs, to double up my score!

I'd like to say thank you,to AZ,it's a pleasure trading with you...As always,your quick communication is very much appreciated...Good luck the rest of the season....

My pleasure my friend and good luck to you as well.

Good matchup, and it was great to get my revenge from the thrashing you gave me last season. 

Baltimore's defense put a scare into me, but Michael Clayton did not perform.

This is you friendly neighborhood redneck reminding everyone to vote for who you think will win,and be sure to set your lineups....Duh,There's a game tonight!

Wish the playoffs started today!

I might have pulled off another winning week due to coaching error. I Brady can get me some points >:D

I win again thanks to TO and Ricky (Barring Ward fumbling 5 times tonight).

Too little, too late.  What a shame. 

What No love for your kicker that put up 15 points for ya? Sheesh.... :D My Team has one week where it acts like a real fantasy football team,the next they forget to play....I have a real hard time getting more than one good week...

^^^

I meant, my team is playing well, but it won't be enough for me to make the playoffs this year.

Anyway, could somebody explain to me the point of voting on which team you think will win? 

The voting..Nothing,other than it's a fun little twist...

Dam... . Brady can you just get me 6 points for the win? Make that 8 after Brady's int.

Dam..... . . . . .. . . fucking lost!!!

I've lost one game by 1 point, one game by 2 points and one game by 3 points.  That sucks.

^^^been there,those Linger...or worse you played the wrong guy,the guy you played only gave you 4 points,and the guy on your bench score 18...I can handle the weeks where my enitre team,inculding the bench didn't score enough to win...I got beat...No problem...

Must win for me this week to keep the #1 seed.  Lot of teams still in it. With 2 games left it all still up for grabs

One garbage time run from Ray Rice and I lose fantasy by 1 point.  It's been that kind of a season for the 4lifers.  I was hoping to win my last 4 games and play spoiler.  I will go for 3 out of 4 this week against stinkfish, who demolished me by 50 points in Week 1.

That Ray Rice miracle saved me from my own idiocy. I had changed Carney out of the K slots of the other teams I had him on, but left him active in this league. It almost cost me a win...

I felt your pain though...I've lost 1 pointers on garbage time stats, and it is not a pleasant thing at all.

I finish a disappointing season with a victory over 3rd and Stink.  I won 3 out of my last four games.  Just think, if I hadn't overslept I'd have been 7-7.

Well, no matter how I add it up...I'm out of the playoffs...Stl is in if the tie breakers are total points...She beat me 25 points....

We're all 7-7...for 1 spot in the playoffs...
Stl 1205
Lil b 1180
Binge 1175 (even though he beat me twice)
Guru 1061

Good luck to evetyone in the playoffs next week...

Considering how bad my team f'd me over, I am surprised.

WOOOOOOOOOOO WEHEY YEAH!!!!

I finally moved out of last place in my third season :)

^^^ Next year you shock the world and make the playoffs...I'm calling it now.

Interesting first round matchup...Redzone Freakfest vs Return to Glory, in an "immediate rematch" of the regular season finale, in which we battled to a 130-130 shootout tie. I'm not sure we will top the Over on that one, but I still expect a high scoring affair.

Gotta love when both playoff games are tied,with the Monday night game deciding who stay,who goes.... :D

Those frisky St Louis Stallions pretty much have their side wrapped up, as Hoodie is done and they just need 1 point from Steve Smith.

The tie on the other side will be a fight though... Return to Glory (Kurt) has the Giants-D and I have the Giants TE, Kevin Boss. We finished the regular season off with a monster 130-130 tie, so no surprise to see us battling down to the final player in the playoffs.

Good stuff...this is what makes the game so damned fun.

I'm still in depression over my season, although landing a new job helps heal it somewhat.

Congratulations to StL Stallions and Return to Glory on making it to the Finals. Good luck to both of ya, and may the best GM win!

I feel bad for alk3hol,Put's up 126 points,that would have taken anyone away...For nothing...My luck after that,the next week I'd get a 68..... :D

^ I'm sure he will have no problem beating my rag tag, duct taped together, walking wounded bunch of guys.  :)

This is it what we all been playing for!

Moving on to the SuperBowl

My team played way over their heads to even get this far.  Good Luck in the SB Alk!

Well good luck this week.

Good luck Pats. Hopefully this will be my year!

Congrats to Pats' Brady Bunch on the win.  :'(

Can't wait to do this again next season and defend 2nd place!

No doubt...congrat's to Pats for winning his first TDMMC fantasy football title. I look forward to trying to take the crown off your head next season. ;)

Thank you, thank you.  First I would like to thank God and Tom Brady with out you two my dream would not have been possible. It was a good year!  ;D
