Fantasy Congress?: The Fantasy Football Geek Blog

Fantasy Congress?

I'm actually kind of a politics geek too, so I'm totally signing up for this. This may be a sign of depression setting in - are there seriously like three more months before Yahoo opens up the fantasy football signups?

What about fantasy baseball? Unlike Matt, I find this a pretty good distraction in the football off-season, so you won't see me signing up for any fantasy politics leagues in the near future.

P.S. It's always good to see your starting third baseman hit a walk off home run...way to go Zimmerman!

Yeah yeah, I'm in two fantasy baseball leagues (including one where THIS is the top prize). A "pretty good distraction" is the about the best thing I could say about them.

Playoff leagues: Keeping the fantasy football season alive to the bitter end:
- frank m: I'm playing at ESPN. I'm also doing weekly tournaments at www.papersports.com.
- ffexchange: I've done my own for a while where we set a lineup each week and you can play anyone, but can only play them once. One third fantasy, one third survivor style pool, and one third guessing the games. Its not the same as the real thing, but going cold turkey isn't easy.
2008 Fantasy Football Playoffs MVPs:
- Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: Just to update the situation, it looks like the PT Cruiser may have a flat tire (i.e. he's questionable with various injuries) and does not seem to be a good play this weekend. Go with Steve Slaton and hope he can find the endzone.
- Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: Sorry for the delay, but was busy with Christmas. Hope yours is going well too. Anyways, in terms of your questions there...I'd go with Thigpen and Pierre Thomas. It looks like Boldin will be questionable for this weekend, so I'd keep him out of your lineup just in case. If Hixon and Ginn are...
- e-roc: @Brandon - Go figure I'm in the office and reading blogs... Anyway, I have both Manning & Wayne so my conundrum is this: QB - Thigpen @ Cin or Garcia v. Oak? RB - PT Cruiser v. CAR , Slaton v. CHI or McClain v. Jax? WR - Do you know if Boldin...
- Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: I'm not generally in favor of starting players on teams that are playing for nothing and it seems that Indy is one of the worst culprits of this (maybe because they are always in the playoffs?) If you have someone like Peyton Manning, you may try to find a suitable replacement, as he'll probably...
- e-roc: @Brandon - somehow I managed to own just two of the names above and still came away with the wins down the stretch. Any thoughts/recommendations on teams like Indy who will probably be sitting starters in Week 17?
Quick Hits (and Misses): Colts @ Jaguars:
- Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @JT: Yeah DeAngelo Williams went off huh?! I'm not sure what either the Texans or Jets were trying to do on Sunday, but it just wasn't working for them. The Patriots almost pitched the shutout, but that garbage time touchdown probably took a few points from you. See you next season!
