    Agreed. I wasn't implying changing it for this league, I was just speaking in general. I wasn't sure if that was something that could be changed, or if it was a required Yahoo thing.

    Where is everybody???

    The season has started and it's time to talk smack!!!

    Micro hasn't made any moves yet. Why? Is his team that good???

    I guess no one cares this early, and by the time they do, It'll be too late!!

    I won my first game, just like last season, so what? I ended up in the last place. It is too early.

    P.S. Should've autodrafted last year.

    Woody, I didn't think you and I will play this season, I'm not in the seniors' league.

    Darth and Jammer would rather talk about Revlon's fall line of cosmetics.

    I beat Darth, didn't I? ;) It's early yet. I really only had 3 or 4 guys play well. I expect better. And someone on my team will definitely disappoint. These short rosters and weekly changes scare me from making too many moves, too fast. I'm probably only 1 or 2 very good moves from making a run at the title.

    I always care about you Woody. I've been moving for what feels like 3 weeks now. I hope and pray next week my life will be somewhat normal.

    See quote above.

    Damn. I know...I should have added another bench slot. We may have to dump a good player due to injuries. But I wanted to keep a strong free agent pool for teams that got off to a slow start. Anyhow, once the draft begins, you can't add roster spots. Maybe it will all work out.

    I'm really into the Tampa team. I've only got two of them this year. I learned the hard way last season that I can't ride them to a fantasy ship any more.

    Push come to shove, if it were the Stanley Cup, of course I'm a Red Wing fan...

    I got a cool Vincent Lecavalier bobblehead on ebay to add to my recently started collection (also have a Lightning Bug-Tampa's mascot, and a Sparty guy. Gonna get a Chase Utley (Philly) for Christmas. :)

    You're fickle Woodwardio.

    First you are whining about the lack of smack and now you are whining that there is too much smack.

    Make up your mind. No. First fix your team so we don't waste a week sleepwalking through our matches with you. THEN make up your mind...

    October 18th, Bill Laimbeer grabs hot goalie Manny Legace off waivers.

    October 24th Manny Legace goes down to injury.:deathstar1:



    Gee, what a surprise...

    What a night Ribiero had the other day. 5 points at least. And on the fantasy front page, there were like 800 owners who had dropped him that day.

    What a bunch of maroons. Like the clowns in this league!

    Crap. I dominate in the goalie category and I'll lose all those categories because they won't play my other starter (Bryzgalov) this week.

    Bad enough I was outnumbered on offense all week.

    Oh well, nothing I can do about it.

    Yeah, who the hell is the darn commissioner of this league? First he robs you of the first overall pick. Then he makes the goalie requirement really stiff.

    The only person giving stiffies around here is supposed to be Jammer. Maybe Woody, but only because his name is built for it.

    I'm going to lose my goalie stats this week, too. I don't think you can combine both weekly lineup changes and a 3-game minimum. Perhaps we need to, as a league, look into modifying these settings somehow.

    Maybe if we buy enough Yahoo stock, we can bring it up at an emergency shareholder meeting. I smell an Adam Sandler script coming out of this adventure...

    For those of us wise enough to get two good goalies, the 3-game rule is working very nicely, thank you!!!

    For those of you drifting down in the nether-lands (and that INCLUDES the Commissioner!!!!), don't lose heart. The worst is yet to come!!!

    I don't understand how Bill beat me. I thought he didn't have enough goalie games?

    Maybe he ended up with enough after all. I know that I lost all my goalie stats for the week.

    I guess I did make it. Legace had 2 games (although he got hurt after 1 period in one of those games) and Ward had 1 game.
