Ahh crap Bev...the FF gods have it out for you. You did something they didnt like. Josh McGown argh. I figured he was good for 20 the way the Falcons def was playing. Looks like I dropped the wrong bum. I dropped Eli last week. That QB flex slot has never been good to be. Guess I will put a regular player in there from here on out. Matt Cassel, Brian Hoyer and Derek Carr are still available. lol True, the Falcons DEF had 10.8 pts (and this is in my BC6 at NFL league, where DEF pts are ramped up a bit, they were horrible!!!). Yeah, IDK what I did to anger the FF gods. It'll probably become more clear Sunday.

No return yards. My fear with Rainey was confirmed...his team would get spanked, and have to abandon the run game. Feel lucky to get 10 from him. There are over 57,000 people in this particular challenge, so there are thousands of whacky lineup variations. For instance, of the 57,000+ people, I'd say around 3,000-4,000 of them yahoo's picked almost all players from TB & ATL. They give you a $60k salary cap, and you choose your team for the week. You'd be completely shocked at many of the crazy lineups people pick. Then again, thousands upon thousands will have a nearly perfect lineup. I figure I have just a good a chance as anyone else, and most likely better than most. This particular one that I speak of was just a $2 entry fee. Payouts work like this...
1st:$8000 2nd:$4000 3rd:$2000 4th:$1500 5th:$1000 6th:$900 7th:$800 8th:$700 9th:$600 10th:$500 11th:$400 12th:$350
13th-14th:$300 15th-17th:$250 18th-21st:$200 22nd-30th:$150 31st-40th:$125 41st-60th:$100 61st-80th:$90 81st-100th:$80
101st-130th:$70 131st-160th:$60 161st-200th:$50 201st-270th:$40 271st-370th:$30 371st-470th:$20 471st-1470th:$10
1471st-2470th:$8 2471st-4470th:$6 4471st-9550th:$5
Just to give you an idea. $5 entry fees for similar tournaments will have nearly tripled prizes.

Hey, you can't make this stuff up...Danny, not the most conversant in football terminology just said..."It's like there's no team on the other side". EDIT: Who starts Devin Hester, even has him on their roster? This team is 1 pt per 20 return yds, not overly generous. And goes off to have the biggest game in his way-too-long career. A guy in my money league has him. We get NO Points, Nada, Nothing for returns. haha not even six for the TD. The irony-- and purity-- of FF standard scoring.

@eddiej2010 - I'm thinking that the only way to get lucky in stuff like that is to pick something wild like Devin Hester and the ATL DEF. Longshot but you gotta set yourself apart. I doubt your thousands upon thousands (even a hundred (dozen if you include the Falcons D) is doubtful) had that nearly perfect lineup you speak of.
