Random update time!

Look at this beatdown right here...


So, eighth place is nearly 500 points back, so he's toast forever. Seventh is just about 400 back, he's done. I mean they're all done but the degree at which these guys are smoked is unreal, considering we're only six or seven weeks into the season [I forget how many because who cares]. 217 points up on 2nd place is a yawner.

I worried that these guys had rolled over and just quit updating, especially after I successfully rebuked their awful attempts at making me feel bad about the absolute shitkicking I'm laying down on them. BUT THEN over the past 24 hours, a bunch of teams made some moves - and in some cases, very SMART moves that I would've made had I not already had a team so stacked I'm like a fine plate of hot cakes.

Check it:
Douchebag in 6th place picked up Ryan Johansen over Brenden Gallagher. Shrewd move, as Gallagher is so much fun to watch but is useless in this league [running at under 3.0 avg points vs Johansen who is double that]. Johansen gets face-offs and is RW eligible. Cha-ching.

Idiot in 5th with the unreadable name picked up Paul Stastny and Brandon Dubinsky over Max Pacioretty and Andrew Ladd. Neither of those two dropees are in the top 25 *available FAs* in average points-per-game, so the fact that they were even on a roster this late into the season is awful. Dubinsky is in the top 25 *overall* players and can be used as an LW, so that's definitely a top pick-up.

Even with these moves, Wingdings guy here managed to drop Frans Nielsen for Shane Doan, which is ridiculous as Nielson is a top 25 player and though Doan is decent, he will drop once his goal production dries up. Nielsen averages more than two extra points per game over Doan.

Also a bunch of other morons made lateral moves like dropping Toby Enstrom for Cam Fowler. Oh, and the fucking twat in eighth place had Michael Del Zotto [he of the recent healthy scratches] being used *AS A UTILITY PLAYER* up until this week, when he dropped him. My goodness.

SO anyway, I think my plan of "benching the entire team for a week" will come into effect, maybe sooner than I had anticipated!

Should be fun.

Getting chirpy

I'm a bit bored with the league right now because I'm so easily winning it.

So I decided to start chirping a bit more on the forum.

It started simply enough, with "I'm better than you", "you're all losers", "your parents hate you because you can't win at fantasy sports" kind of things, nothing too personal. But, no responses. So I figured I'd ask straight up what the situation was...




Some quick digging [ie: looking at these guys' user profiles] would show that they're all males [or chicks with male names] and every one of them has been in multiple hockey leagues on yahoo before [including one guy who's been in 91!!! leagues].

Let's see if this starts more of a ruckus. It'd be nice if these guys put in some effort, y'know?

By the way I'm now in first place by 150 points.

I think once I hit a lead of 300+ points, I'm going to bench MY ENTIRE TEAM for a week to see if these idiots can actually catch up.

That is if the commish of the league doesn't beat me to it due to my being such an asshole to them.

Fun!
