Our matchup went down to the wire, I wouldn't give up on yourself. But here we go, starting the Schedule of Death with a hard-earned 5-4.

I'm feeling disrespected here. Jordan's playing AlciG.

He must've got his wires crossed - he's up against me in FFL.

I'm guaranteeing 8-1 this week

Can you dig it, sucka!?

theman must be seeing Redd after Michael tears both his ACL and MCL.

Don't forget to give me a little notice... I randomly log into the league; but, will typically remember to do so if I know a player is due to be moved to the IL...

It wasn't you it was me. I was waiting for the next guy to go on the IL to activate him. Plus, some times they don't come back that first game.

No giving up here. We are going to battle hard. People are going to have to step up and we will make the playoffs.

Hmmm.... at least I'm keeping it close so far....

It's been nice to see WB really get put in his place these last couple weeks. I don't mind reminding everyone that it was the emotionally crushing loss at the hands of Good Ol' CFan that started his five week winless slide. (Takes a bow, departs stage left)

You'd like to take credit wouldn't you (and may I say, it's odd, though not surprising, that you're taking glory in a 5-4 loss to the talent you were up against that week). The trade with Sly actually "put me in my place"...as Vince has been a no-show injury waiting to happen, TJ Ford was benched, and Barbosa is still hobbling. Stephen Curry and Hedo Turk, on the other hand, have been solid. Those guys, alone, would have lifted me to several wins over the last few weeks. Either way though, I'm down, but I'm not out...currently with a lead on TheMan, who is a 3rd or 4th ranked contender, imo.

And no matter where I end up in the standings (I had no chance against Coady and Blake anyway), it'll be nice to see you end up where you always do: as an also-ran.

and who is riddled with injuries.

As for Ford are you wishing you would have accepted my offer? (don't actually recall what it was so it might not have been very good.)

That trade with Craig halted all your momentum. No wonder I ran over the top of you on the last day.

As for myself and Blake Griffin, why me?

Which offer? I don't recall one that didn't involve pawning Shaq off on me...

I lost Greg Oden for the year, but gained a Samuel Dalembert

Post #1176 » by **Young_Star11** » Thu Jan 14, 2010 3:31 am

Sam''s been on fire of late. Poor lad though, his homeland got shaken by an earthquake...though apparently he is Canadian now?

Post #1177 » by **Stanford** » Thu Jan 14, 2010 3:43 am

He grew up in Montreal. He was allowed to play for the national team until he got into a thing with the d-bag coach.

Fighting hard this week against AlciG Stallions. I have had to go small in order to try and win some categories, and will be relying on four guards to try do the business for me on Sunday. It's a huge burden when Kaman and AR are both out...and CJ Watson turned out to be a total flop. I just lost 2 2nds...

Bad luck with CJ too. He might be out a week or two with the lacerated hand.

A case of what could have been after a 4-5 loss to a stacked AlciG Stallions. The bright side for me is that despite losing, my lead over 7th was cut by the minimum amount (0.5 games). I sure am looking over the shoulder with Kaman and A. Randolph down and out.
