Wow, three weeks in – and we’re down to one undefeated team. The Beer Belly Ninjas stand alone at 3-0, and for good measure, they also lead the league in points.
I can’t help but notice that someone picked up JaMarcus Russell. That person will remain nameless… but I can hardly blame him. The Texans have a history of making terrible-to-mediocre quarterbacks look like Hall of Famers.
Still – JaMarcus Russell? Someone help the guy out with a trade offer or something. That’s just sad.

Should I pick-up Chad Henne and offer them a peace offering? lol
My Squad has sucked the past two weeks!

Someone picked up JaMarcus Russell? I got to go see who did that.
Sep 30, 2009 at 10:02:35
Yes it was me. I have warner’s bye week. My choices were
Quinn, Josh Johnson, stafford, and Russell
Seneca Wallace was even gone
at least when we are all watching the game it will be a little more entertaining!
Still trying to get a RB for my backhanders squad

Steve tasked = bit@!

It might tough for The Sad Schaubs to pull it out on Sunday, but I’ll make sure to get them ready.

looking for opinions.
is harvin for mcgahee pretty fair on both sides
Sep 30, 2009 at 15:51:57
Yes and no.
McGahee is limited to about 12-15 carries a game. Harvin seems more like Brett’s “Dustin Keller” of last year.
I think McGahee holds an edge now but towards the tail end of the season whoever would get Harvin would get the better deal.

@allen OU
sorry bro I cannot help you with the QB situation. One of my QB’s is currently injured(hassleback) and the other is my franchise QB and he is off limits.
I could use some wide receiver and running back help also. I need a solid number one receiver.

@ Allen
Mcgahee has been a touchdown machine. I should know as I have Ray Rice in two of my other leagues. I wouldn’t do it.

I have lj as my only real 2nd back
have Walter as my third wr. It’s a toss up I think
Sep 30, 2009 at 20:03:17
Whether or not it’s a GOOD trade is kind of irrelevant… he’s asking if it’s a FAIR trade. Based on need, sounds like it’s a workable deal, and I don’t think it’s severely lopsided.
Sep 30, 2009 at 20:36:20
Well put. Kind of like the texans secondary
whether the players are GOOD is irrelevant
it’s about DO they have a pulse. Or it sure seems like that

I’m still in awe that my team not only leads in points but is also in first place. I have a good kicker and a good defense, thats pretty much got me where Im at today. That defense is on a bye this week so should be interesting. I predict my first loss this week. I thought my team would be scrounging from the barrel, and even though its still early and could change in the coming weeks, it just goes to show how little I know about fantasy.
I think the Harvin/McGahee trade is fair. Harvin has put up decent numbers since return yds are a factor, and McGahee has been the Balt rushing TD machine, which is heavily favored in our league. Depends on your teams needs.
This is by far the most challenging league I have ever been in. Should be even more fun with bye weeks the next couple of weeks. I forsee some hard waiver wire let gos or taken positional goose eggs.

I think whoever will get mcgahee will have committed highway robbery. Our league rewards touchdowns very heavily. Willis Mcgahee in our league is easily a top 5 runningback and what happens to harvin’s numbers when Brett Christ gets injured?

No offens,e but I think I will give you a run for your money because I love my team. I have the best QB and I think the best defense in the league.It will depends on my busts(so far) such as Lendale White, Brandon Jacobs and TJ Houshmandzadah showing up and since our league rewards TD and those guys traditionally score high TD numbers. I am regretting passing up Chris Johnson for Jacobs, but hopefully Jacobs redeems himself as the season progresses. Good luck bro!

It’s mostly need for me and kd. With mcgahees injury history and the brett favre sucks at the end of the year deal. It works
Oct 5, 2009 at 10:13:50
Damn. My QB didnt save when I went to change my starter.
Oct 7, 2009 at 08:14:15
Ummmm I have some questions about this can’t cut list?
How does it work?Can you override it Chris?
