Not bad...made a trade a couple weeks ago to get Anderson and looks like I will get the W this week. Unless Hassleback, Branch and Morris put up huge numbers?
Won 3 out of 4 leagues already, and down 19 points in one league coming in to tomorrow (with Hasselbeck and Branch going).
I had big days from different combinations of players in different leagues such as TO, Lynch, Wayne, SJax, Chris Benson (never though i'd say his name lol).
ironically as much as i hated not having my Brady-Moss combo in a couple leagues, i am playing the other 2nd place team in one league (both of us are 7-2) and he has Brady on bye...which was sweet.
10-Team Yahoo! Keeper League: TheYayArea (in 3rd Year now) 11-0!
Starters:
QB: Tom Brady
WR: Terrell Owens, Randy Moss, Marvin Harrison
RB: LaDainian Tomlinson, Marshawn Lynch
W/R: Marion Barber III
TE: Chris Cooley
K: Shayne Graham
D: Pittsburgh
We'll my losing streak ended...but it's not really ALL Brady's fault.
My starters this week: Huard, Damon KCC QB -5.68 wtf?! Johnson, Rudi CIN RB 5.30 weak! White, LenDale TEN RB 2.20 I thought he could actually be counted on because of his past couple of games Edwards, Braylon CLE WR 8.10 I can't complain I guess... Fitzgerald, Larry ARI WR 23.40 Top scorer for my team! Hackett, D.J. SEA WR 8.80 can't complain he was a WW pick-up this week somehow... Winslow, Kellen CLE TE 13.10 Happy Stover, Matt BAL PK 1.00 WEAK! Rogers, Shaun DET DT 3.75 see above Kampman, Aaron GBP DE 1.50 for god's sake he averages over 10 points a game! Cooper, Stephen SDC LB 13.25 happy Farrior, James PIT LB 4.50 expected more Tatupu, Lofa SEA LB 5.25 see above Bryant, Fernando DET CB 11.00 happy- WW pick-up. Hayden, Kelvin IND CB 6.00 fair
Notes: Opposing team had 4 players break 15, including: McNabb (34) and Cromatrie (29). Both Brady AND Ronnie Brown were on my bench this week (keeper league). It coulda been worse...he had 6 players get over 9 points on his bench and 3 of those were over 15, and 2 were over 20! Sad thing is I still would have done better with Brady in then Huard!
So to say my first loss was expected going in with Brown and Brady gone would be true.
Lost, but only b/c I started JP Losman in Brady's stead instead of Kurt Warner or Jason Campbell (the other two guys I considered for the role). Boo on me.
WINNER!!! big ben was a big part of that. san diego and selvin young also came up huge.

I lost but only because everyone else on my team totally failed, Hasselbeck was my fill in and was my top scorer aside from that no one even came close to getting their "yahoo projected points".
I actually dont care about the loss, at the begining of the week I had already clinched a playoff spot, now I am looking to solidify my lineup for playoff weeks and hope that Brady ends up playing all the way up until (real) playoffs.
