First of all I understand that FF is just a game. Some peoples do have cash on the line in these games. Saying all that, I don't think that this board is a rumor mill. Any story that can't be back up by other posters or found in print somewhere is a rumor if you ask me. But, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
Ya know that a lier might have been a to strong of a word to use. How about "take for whats it worth."
I can guarantee it's not fake news
I guess I should have just quoted this part of your post and let it go. I really wasn't trying to call you out but posts like this.
Me being a VET. I'm not a cafe vet. I'm the new guy, I found it easy to give my opinion(sp) about who to start and how poeple did in thier draft. Thats how I got my post count. I'm not a beloved member of the boards, I'm sure some mods don't even know who I'am. Please don't think that my words come from the dedicated members of this board about rules or conduct on the board.
There's my pease.

Understood, I think you were a tad harsh at first, and I overreacted to that. No hard feelings.
Tice's comment is being widely reported. If you haven't see it yet you are looking in the wrong place.
The EXCELLENT point made a few post up was "did Tice really mean it". To go a step further I'll add the question Will he stick to it?
It's difficult to say but if OS gets 20/game with that OL and his talent he'll be a fantasy stud. When I drafted OS I targeted Week 5 for his impact (and posted this here a few times). I forget, what weekend will this be in the NFL? Week 4? No. Week 2? No. Week 6? No. oh yeah... it's WEEK 5!
insert self patting on back.
Unless Henry is a sure go OS is going in my starting lineup.
I've been hearing that Tice wants to expand his role every week since the get go. It happened last week...a little. It's all about the carries. How many does everybody think he'll get? I agree if he gets 20 or so touches he could have a huge game, but will that actually happen?
I just Dumped Smith last week. I tried to scoop him up again, but someone beat me too it in both my leagues.
Oct 3 According to the Star Tribune, coach Mike Tice said yesterday on his radio show that rookie running back Onterrio Smith will rush for at least 100 yards against the Falcons Sunday. "He told me today in practice," Smith said. "He told me I was going to have to back him up
."
I don't know if Tice is following Fassel's lead... but that sounds like a guarantee to me...
Being a vikes fan I wanted to pick up Smith so I'd reap the benefits if he gets his breakout day.
But if his intentions are to get Smith 100+ why make the game plan public... My guess goes to Smith being a used as a diversion, and Moss or Burleson having another big day.[/quote]

Doubt it, we are talking about atlanta here. You don't need to "trick" them to beat them. You can do pretty much anything you want.
