Fantasy Lounge has yet to get going this year, with their best team ranked 8th, and even then Surge is not even at .500. No forum wants to be kicked out of next year's competition, but they'll have to start turning it around some time soon.

Fantasy Basketball Cafe is being led by Rounders Block (RB), who is making a big surge...he's 22-4-1 in the last three weeks and looking damn good. The manager actually is a fantasy expert working for Yahoo, so I guess we wouldn't expect anything else! Red Rover has literally gone W-L-W-L-W-L-W-L and is being dogged by Roy's continued ill-health. geodbear (hamncheese on RealGM if you didn't know) is having a surprisingly inconsistent season, as he ranked #1 on my pre-season ranking. silentjim looks to be paying for taking Dwight so early, going 1-5 in his last six weeks.

RotoKingdom has slipped a little of late after a blistering start to the season. Over the past two weeks, CF, KB89 and dcdoorknob have gone 0-6 collectively (19-35-1), whilst seattle (the other team) has had the misfortune of losing Rondo and Noah. He hasn't yet felt the effects of that, and before injury was one of the strongest teams in the L. Still only 6.5 GB us though!

RealGM Gokce is on a five-week winning streak, going 32-13-0 over that stretch. It's no wonder he's gone to the top of the standings. In hot pursuit are myself and Craig. My only loss this season has been to Craig in Week 4, and I am 6-0 (35-19-0) against non-RealGM teams so far. sly's tried-and-true approach is working so far, and will continue to work so long as Brand, Calderon, Harris, Prince etc. play out consistent and full seasons. sabonis has just got Okur back and can hopefully move forward. Murphy has been a complete and utter flop, which has also hurt his team. But there are some positive early signs, up 9-0 this week (though early days)!

Melo and GWallace out this week; hurting me big-time. My depth is keeping me in it; but, I'll definitely be losing this week.

Good job so far, boys... hopefully we can keep it up.

Up 6-3 but 4 of the 6 categories I'm winning are up for grabs. Not feeling comfortable at all.

Our matchup will have an interesting finish for sure. Let's see how we play out the last 2 days. Should be exciting :)

Side note: always exciting to compete against RealGM. Used to be part of the Smart Drafters League and BWW's money league. So a lot of familiar names here.

Not the greatest of starts from the Cafe, but we still have plenty of season to go. At least we have a nice cushion on the Lounge. Glad to be the one to finally break up that RealGM triumvirate at the top. Keep the updates comin' fellas.

I've had injuries and dissappointing play (Joe Johnson, Robin Lopez, Baron Davis), and been hovering around .500. Losing this week to jim is alright (might as well lose to your forum mates). Good job with the updates.

A decent week overall for realgm, a great week for myself.

I won 8-1 over George and it is probably my most luckiest win of all time.

Going into the final day, I had secured %'s and George had a decent lead in rebounds. All the remaining categories were awfully close.

I ended up winning 3's by 1; rebounds by 11 (had a huge comeback in the last day); assists by 2(thanks to 8 unexpected assists from Camby on Sunday); steals by 2. Tough break for George as he could have easily ended up winning the week 5-4

KB snapped my 4-week win streak, but not at all surprised. Actually OK with the 4-5 result. Had Dirk, Varejao, Bargnani, Nene, and Chuck Hayes go down this week... then just lost Caron for good yesterday.

My squad is playing horribly. Injuries to Calderon, GWallace and AK. Melo finally came back; but, it was a flub game. CF forgot to set his lineup on Sunday, leaving Nash and Gallinari on the bench. He should have won our matchup last week.

I'm holding onto Turiaf and Thornton because of their upside... I've come close to dropping these guys; but, I just don't have the heart to do it.

It was so close all week, but just didn't have enough at the end. Gibson sick, Hinrich hurt, Morrow out, and even Louis Willliams being a dad didn't help, especially when I lost threes by 1, assists by 2, and steals by 2. Also, my team normally shoots 80% ft and just happened to shoot 71% last week.

Murphy is defensible I guess, but still have no idea why you waited on / still have Okur.

Close loss last week. 100 turnovers from my team last week is unacceptable, especially when the other team has 99. I could have perhaps risked losing another category to win TO.

Halfway through the regular season now - RealGM holding it together at #1 in the team standings.
