Week 2 Game of the Week Nominations
Game of the Week Nominee #1 Chad Luik 110 Dan Gettle 108
Heading into SNF, Luik needed 15 from Marion Barber and got to 17 from 14 with Barber's 35 yard run on which he injured himself for the game. Before the run, Barber had 89 yards rushing, afterward he had 124.
Gettle Schaub 38 S Smith (CAR) 13 Bowe 11 S Moss 1 D Williams 12 T Jones 3 Winslow 15 Longwell 10 Philadelphia 5
Luik Brees 27 Houshmandzadeh 6 D Jackson 17 Hester 2 Barber 17 R Bush 12 Gates 7 Kaeding 14 Washington 8
Game of the Week Nominee #2 John Marinelli 75 Alex Pacelli 71
The two newest ASFL2 members. Addai and Manning couldn't overcome a 27 point deficit versus the Miami defense because they weren't on the field for a full quarter. Another Manning drive would have done it.
Pacelli P Manning 24 Boldin 6 V Jackson 20 Walter 0 Forte 4 Addai 2 Olsen 4 Brown 10 Dallas 1
Marinelli Brady 5 Edwards 9 Coles 6 Moore 0 Peterson 12 McGahee 18 Gonzalez 13 Gostkowski 10 Miami 2
Game of the Week Nominee #3 Lombardo 107 Masse 100
Lombardo entered MNF down 17 with just Dallas Clark left, but the opening play certainly gave him hope from the get go. The Colts final scoring drive gave him what he needed for the win. This came after NYG's D scored 17 in SNF to bridge gap.
Lombardo Cassel 11 Boldin 6 Marshall 3 S Moss 1 S Jackson 7 Gore 28 Clark 24 Kasay 10 NYG 17
Masse Ryan 23 Bowe 11 D Jackson 17 Cotchery 8 D Williams 12 Portis 5 Carlson 4 Rackers 8 Atlanta 12
Honorable Mentions (in raw notes form) -Frederick 93, M Dipinto 91 (all pre-SNF) but Crayton's point for Frederick. -Miles 103, Carrell 100; Miles survives Eli Manning and Steve Smith combining for 44 points with Folk chipping in 8. -Henck 72, Hurst 68; Barber gives Henck 17 on SNF (again with Barber's 3 point turn on his final run the difference) then Wayne gets 3 to Addai's 2 on MNF La Polla 98, Ashe 96; NYG's D's 17 & Bradshaw's 2 on SNF give La Polla the win to overcome Ashe's 5 Saints (Brees, Moore, Bush, Thomas, NO's DEF) [his team name is DASAINTS]. Three 0's for Ashe (Lance Moore, Zach Miller & Pierre Thomas prove the difference). N Hall 88, Rossetti 88; Hall's 17 NYG D points bring him within two of Rossetti heading into MNF when combined with Kevin Boss' point for Rossetti. Addai manages just 2 points for Hall to call it a draw. McNair 88, Moir 86; Two points from Miami's D for McNair proves to be the difference. Moir landed right on Yahoo.'s projection. Morse 82, True 78; Heading into SNF Morse needed 16 to tie, but got 20 from the Giants D (17) and Brandon Jacobs (3) for the win

I am starting to remember why I hate fantasy football. At least 2 of my normal starters are listed as P or Q this week in every team. I wish they could just make their friggin minds up. Most week it simply comes down to who is luckiest/best at predicting who will play.

At least its better that Fantasy Premier League. At least in the NFL you have seperate designations (Probable=75%, Questionable=50%, Doubtful=25%, Out=0%). With FPL you get just questionable most the time or "a doubt" or "late fitness test".

On the other hand, you have a lot more time to make up for it with a 35 week season and no head to head.
In football, even if you have a very good team, you have to expect to lose at least once to a guy that just has a monster week and probably another matchup because of the bye weeks.
In order to be sure of reaching the playoffs you then need to win at least 9 of the remaining 11 match ups.
That's tough anyway but if you also lose out on a couple of your stars listed as P or Q not playing that's really all it takes to send you crashing out.
That's not to say that I like salary cap games. As a rule, I much prefer H2H or pickem.
Oh and by the way, am I the only one who thinks manager abuse the P, Q, D designations? Since there is no way to measure how likely a guy was to being able to play then unless it's something blatantly obvious like two broken legs they can put a guy down as probable even though they've already decided not to play him if they think that will give them a tactical or psychological advantage. Of course it also works the other way around. I am sure they sometimes list players as D even though they are virtually certain the ywill play.

Either I am really confused or Yahoo's live scoring is. With ASFL league settings we only get 6 points for DEF TD if it's the defense that scores the TD, right?
At the moment it seems like anytime a team scores a TD the DEF of that team gets 6 points.
Edit: Never mind, they fixed it now.

Tom Brady was listed as Probable every week for I believe about 2 years and then the one week he was not on that list he got hurt the first week of the season last year.

That was the worst non bye week Fantasy Football weekend I can remember having. I must have average under 60 points and will go 1-4 at best.

Headline: NFL investigating Mangini's role in Jets' failure to list Favre injury
According to the report, the Jets' GM "admitted the club should have listed Favre, who had a torn biceps tendon, as 'probable' on the injury report for the last four or five games."
I would like to think that the NFL checks any type of questionable behavior in regards to the official status of players.

The Fantasy Football overall standings page is now updated. No tidbits and GotW data until tomorrow if at all for reasons on the front page of the website. I nearly ended the league right then and there. I need to boost my computers' memory and/or get a new OS and/or buy a new computer, but I don't have any time or money. My desktop loves to freeze with little warning at best every other week, ocassionally every few days (as was the case here).
If you'd like to help re-gather the data and have access to one of the asfldos accounts (none of you post it here), PM me any nominees and the rest of the information I put in the last weekly update on the previous MB page and first post of this page. If you want to try it for your own league from your ID, go ahead.
League 4 had three terrific contests and at least three tidbits from it.
Luik vs Morse in league 2 was a nominee (but that's on my ID) and had a tidbit or two also.
Eden vs Lombardo in league 5 was also on the list.

You have my sympathies. I have certainly been there. I decided to make my annual donation a little early to help you resolve this situation.

League 3 is tough. There are 5 (3-0) teams. I don't think I have ever been in a league where I am 3-0 but in 4th place.
