    Thumbs up After 8 weeks, the 3rd place Team in a 14-Team league should be...

    a) 7-1
    b) 6-2
    c) 5-3
    d) 4-4



    I mean... there are FOURTEEN teams in the DobberHockeyFantasyFootballLeague (DHFFL) and the 3rd place team is 4-4!
    Heck, the 10th place team is 4-4. And the last place team (yours truly) is 3-5.

    Crazy, crazy, most-competitive league I've ever played in.
    (well, except for the Fear Boners who are trouncing all of us)

    Standings after Week 8:

    1. The Fear Boners 7-1-0
    ...
    ...
    2. Megatron 5-3-0
    ...
    3. Blitz INC. 4-4-0
    4. TD's N Beer! 4-4-0
    5. The Waterboy 4-4-0
    6. TK's Troops 4-4-0
    7. Bettman Fumbles 4-4-0
    8. York Dukes 4-4-0
    9. ESU Wolves 4-4-0
    10. Tremendous Kielbasas 4-4-0
    ...
    11. Powerplay QB 3-5-0
    12. Beli Check Yo'Self 3-5-0
    13. The Frisky Hobbit 3-5-0
    14. Discount Doublecheck 3-5-0 <---- yeah, that's me.

    My 14 team league. The 6-2-0 team isnt very good, but has been running good with the Bears defence, Drew Brees and Ahmad Bradshaw carrying the team. The leader has RG3, AP, Rice etc and is pretty good.

    We've got 8 teams going to the playoffs which start in week 14.

    My Team (start 2 RB, 3 WR, Flex):
    QB: Rivers, Freeman, Weeden
    RB: Foster, McCoy, Vereen, Tate
    WR: AJ Green, Nicks, Dez Bryant, V. Brown, Hixon
    TE: Gronkowski, Tamme (bye week replacement)
    DEF: Giants

    EDIT: FUN FACT - The 1-7-0 team would have been 6-2-0 with one more touchdown per week.

    The Frisky Hobbit will magically make the playoffs. Second half team!! I'm 7-1 in my other fantasy football league (16 teams!). I used the same damn list!!

    That is the shining example of parity.

    As I mentioned in another post, In my 8 team H2H hockey league last year halfway thru season I was only team with a winning percentage above .500

    My team 81W-27L-12T
    2nd team 53-53-14
    3rd team 53-54-13
    4th team 51-55-14

    Thankfully didn't choke in the playoffs.

    That's great. In our league last year only 1 person had made the playoffs for sure and 7 others were in a position that they could make the playoffs at the start of week 14. Unfortunately Percy Harvin failed me in week 14 and I lost which gave me 4th place and a matchup against a terrifying team (he had a top 4 player for every position) in the first round of the playoffs while Rodgers and MJD both had bad matchups. I lost. If I had managed to win in week 14 my team would have beaten the 3rd place team and I would have beaten the #1 team.

    I think I just knocked the Fear Boners off this week.

    Unless Matt Cassel has a week for the ages, he is going down!!

    I need 64 points combined from Big Ben, Wallace, Bowe, Charles and Pittsburgh's D tonight. Normally with good players it's possible, however a few things need to go right for that to happen:

    - KC needs to start well so that Charles can get good yardage/an early score
    - Pittsburgh needs to take over, say late first or early second half.
    - With at least a TD+ Pittsburgh lead, KC to go to the passing game and Bowe getting more involved
    - Pittsburgh's D could have a better chance at sacks/picks as KC will rely on the pass more.
    - Final score to be something like 31-14 Pittsburgh (Charles/Bowe likely need a score each, or big yardage if only one score between them)

    Fingers crossed for something like this to happen. If not, I'll fall to 5-5 and likely just in or out of a playoff position.

    (sucks that I benched Felix Jones though - oh well)

    LOL! I will climb to 5-5 and feel like I just climbed back into the playoff race.

    That's why I feel fantasy football is the most random game in the world. Who would predict that Danny f$#^% Woodhead would get 2 tds vs Ridleys 1 TD.

    Since a TD is worth so much, can change a players production greatly. Look at Charles Johnson this year versus last year.
    No one expected Cobb to be the highest ranked Packer WR or that Pats would actually attempt a running game.
