Philly is going to be one of the better teams in the East this year.

How will Shannahan be a fantasy bust?

He's on waivers in every league im in.

Post #12 » by **Mr Swagtastic** » Sun Oct 5, 2008 12:38 am

Some people will pick him up because of Durry and think he has some gas left in the tank. It was either Shanny or Gaberoik (sp)

Griff83 · Post #13 » by **Griff83** » Sun Oct 5, 2008 8:32 am

Ya maybe someone will pick Shannahan up in the last 2 rounds but im not sure how that counts as a fantasy bust. Fantasy bust has to be someone thats selected relatively high, not someone who goes in the last few rounds where most of the time your taking a flyer on a guy anyways.

Post #14 » by **Mr Swagtastic** » Mon Oct 6, 2008 7:11 pm

OK then I am going to have to pick Danny Bierre (sp) the guy had a great year in Buffalo and now he's paid like a superstar :roll:

They're going to choke this season, along with Detroit. Book it.

Post #17 » by **Mr Swagtastic** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 7:01 pm

at the post about the Wings choking. How are we going to choke? We have one of the deepest teams in the league. If anything we are going to improve. I love how everybody writes us off after 1 **** game. If we are **** at December for example then I could agree with you but not now

That's the beauty with the Wings. When they choke, it comes off different every time, so you never know what to expect.
