LJ stock rising....

**sling58** · 10-18-2007, 02:02 PM

....on NFL.com Lj is the #2 ranked back this week in Fantasy football. He is going against the faders team that horrible against the run. Owners are being advised to start him.

Note: LJ has scored more TD's against the faders than any other team he has rushed against in his career.

Is your rival a Raiders fan?

No he's a 49er fan too, just a jacka$$ that I've beaten in 5 straight games (over the last 2 years) and I'm facing him for the first time this year...

So how does this fantasy thing work?

Do you own your own team?

Which one?

Assuming you're being serious...

We have a draft (which usually involves a lot of beer). Many leagues use different rules, but I'll assume a basic league.

Our league has 10 teams...mine is Rich's RadDogs (see my avatar). We get to keep 3 players from the previous year (I kept LJ, Ronnie Brown and Carson Palmer). We draft 18 players...our league starts a roster each week of

QB (1)
RB (2)
WR (2)
TE (1)
W/R (1) this is an option of a WR or RB
W/T (1) this is an option of a WR or TE
PK
Def/ST (this is a team defense/special teams)
LB (1)
DB (1)
D (2) this is any defensive player
Bench (8)

Each week we have one head-to-head opponent. You get points for different stat categories (passing yards, TDs, rushing/receiving yards, receptions, etc.) At the end of the weekend the team with the most points wins.

Our league has a $100 buy in,

Winner of the playoffs gets $300
2nd place $200
3rd place $150
4th place $100
Top scoring team regular season $150
Top W-L record $100

If you want more information you can go to our league's info site...it's not completely up to date but

Yes I am.

I have never been a member of a fantasy football league.

I hear them talked about often on TV, and them web, but have never met one in person.

Do you folks have a reflection in the mirror?

**rbedgood** · 10-19-2007, 03:18 AM

I am evil, so no reflection, but some members of our league do...one of my best friends is an ordained minister and he's in the league...so I'm guessing the mirror thing works for him.

Is this what he sees in the mirror?
