Blargity BLAH! They say McGahee is hurt and is "questionable...." He ends up (at this point) with 23 points. My best RB at the moment is Battle with 6 points.... Wow. Talk about experts getting it wrong and me starting the wrong people based on their opinions. So goes fantasy football...

Oh heck yes! Just my luck! McGahee gets 33.30 points! Glad I started Ryan Grant (1.60 points) over the injured McGahee (who, even though they doubted his play was "projected" to have 6 points)! FML!

So, wait.... Back to our earlier discussion about the whole individual vs DST points.... If a player gets a return TD, they don't get points, the DST does.... BUT, tonight I found out that if that same player FUMBLES during the return, they LOSE points!?!?! Jackson fumbled the return, and I lost 2 points. Does anyone else think this isn't quite fair? You can get the negatives of a DST play by having the player, but you can't get the positives?

You already know my stance. This is pretty much my entire point from before. If an active duty player is on DST, he wins/loses with them and yet apart from them--better or for worse.

But oddly, that doesn't seem like the way we have it configured. Right?

I didn't change the settings. It is set up the default way. I don't really care either way (points/fumbles count for the ind, or they don't), but it shouldn't be the way it is with the individual only getting the negatives, imo....

Yeah, we know you didn't. Not even an issue.
What I'm saying is if there is a negative repercussion, wouldn't that be a setting? Sorry, haven't seen the CP for this league.

RBs are my death this year. My good ones are out (Best & Bradshaw), not to mention my WRs Moss & Jackson.... So to just demonstrate HOW bad my RBs are... All 3 of them COMBINED scored less than my KICKER! HOW PATHETIC!

OK, so I only need Burress and the Packer DST to score 62 more points than Starks, and I get the win. I've got this in the bag!
