I wouldn't say Ball is garbage. If he emerges as their #1 back he could have a very solid fantasy season. Ball once more could be the make or break player for your team Drem.. Maybe garbage, maybe not. One too many 'ifs' and 'coulds'. Word is, Hillman is ahead, not a solid pick, but perfectly acceptable in the 9th round, not 6th in a 10-teamer. But now that he's listed the draft picks in order, I think our work is done here with this Ravens homer. lol

nahh not a hipster. Think the only part that fits me is the indie-rock part but that's about it. Don't wear short shorts, I usually wear flip flops or nikes and sometimes wear my toe shoes or vans. I have a lot more shoes than I expected. And maybe a neon coloured v-neck, plain tee, graphic tee or sweater. BTW I wear glasses because I have to not because I want to look cool. I started wearing glasses before hipsters did it.
Osheaga could be for hipsters but there were a lot of main stream artists like Mackelmore, Imagine Dragons, Lumineers, Kendrick Lamar, and Mumford and Songs. I guess there were some bands for the hipsters like alt-j and Vampire Weekend but really there was something for everybody

But now that he's listed the draft picks in order, I think our work is done here with this Ravens homer. lol Not a Ravens' homer at all, but their kicker got the job done, I think their defense can stil make it happen (even without Reed and Lewis)and Torrey Smith isn't that bad. I don't see the Fantasy draft as being about homers but with whom you can get the most points. I'm a Chicago fan but why would I take Cutler over Rodgers, Brees or Brady ? I could draft by going against the opposing team in the NFC North but that would cut AP, Rodgers and Megatron, wich are pretty solid at their respectives positions. Some of you were wondering about the order in wich I picked the players and I posted them. I have nothing to hide, I'm pretty upfront and I assume what I did. @ace, ok got you. It's just that 90% of the people I saw in the metro were a match of what I described. Lol. craig, look on the first page!

Ravens may be able to do well still, but they lost much more than just Lewis and Reed...they lost Lewis, Reed, Kruger, Pollard, Ellerbe, and Cary Williams (were all starters last season). They did gain Canty and Dumervil though.

Yeah, I saw a lot of people dressed like that. Deff wasn't me though, I was the guy caked with mud lol. Did you go, or do you just live in Montreal? I work & go to school in Montréal but I live on the South shore. I use the yellow line between Longueuil & Mtl all the time so I see the Osheaga gang, the F1 gang, the Fireworks gang, the La Ronde gang and others as well. I also see every september the Fetish crew www.fetishweekend.com/ in the streets since it's close to my job. 40 years old men with beer bellies molded in their fishnet shirts, 1 piece latex suit of all colors, Daddy's collars, you get to see it all for free on the Streets... Anyway, since it seems we can draft as much as we want, here is draft # 3! QB: Matt Ryan RB: Doug Martin RB: Reggie Bush WR: Victor Cruz WR: Torrey SMith TE: Jimmy Graham W/R: Rashard Mendenhall K: Justin Tucker Def: Houston Texans BN: Josh Freeman BN: DeAngelo Williams BN: Pierre Thomas BN: Montee Ball BN: James Jones BN: Jermaine Gresham Now that was the most surprising draft of all so far. 1st round, P5 Pats def, P6 Megatron, P7 Brees (I was pick 8) 3rd round, P24 P.Manning,P25 A. Rodgers, P26 Brady 4th round, P31 Kaepernick, P36 RG3 (now the guy who picked Brees, got RG3 on top of Rodgers on his bench with auto-pick)P40 Russell Wilson After that it was less surprising.

Best draft so far. I don't think Megatron going in the 1st round is that surprising neither do I think those QBs going in the 3rd. Peyton and Brady might be a tad early for my tastes but I can see people reasoning why they would take them in the 3rd.

Ahh much better! Well done on this draft! With Martin and Bush you are solid at RB. Mendenhall is a good 3rd back, his stock is down a little bit with the injury to Cooper but I still see him as a solid 3rd options. Williams and Ball have upside and are nice options against weaker defenses. Don't like Thomas, only saints back with any worth in my books is Sproles.. I don't like that you only have 3 WRs if I were you I'd drop Pierre Thomas and pick up another WR. The other problem is that James Jones will be fighting with 2 other guys for catches and Rodgers likes to spread the ball around. Although Jones is good he isn't a consistent points getter. He will have one massive week followed by a weak with one catch for like 20 yards. So I'd strongly recommend getting another guy! TE's are good, Gresham's stock is down in my books due to Tyler Eiffert, however the two TE thing never really hurt Gronk or Hernandez's fantasy stock.. But with Jimmy Graham will will only really need another TE for his bye week. Matt Ryan is a good starting QB, Josh Freeman is inconsistent.. But similar to your TE's you will only likely need to play Freeman once in a blue moon. Only if Ryan is playing a really tough DEF and Freeman has a good matchup or on his bye week. Good Kicker and DEF.. Overall you have improved significantly! Well done!
