Point Taken

 

Aaaaaand just like that starting lineup scoring jumps from an average team score of 86.3 to 105.3. I can't explain what happened. If I could I'd be working the casinos in Vegas.

No huge insights from me this week, but a few random thoughts.....

1....There are eight teams at 1-1. I always say after Week One that you are neither as good or as bad as it appears. This kind of backs that up.

2....Another few running backs went down this past week. I think going to the one RB mandatory rule was smart. I felt that way when I first considered it and now I'm positive it's the right move. And yes, it takes some getting used to. I have to overcome the urge to automatically stick a second one in my lineup before moving on to receivers. 

3....I had thought one of the phone apps I've used for the league had given up the ghost. Not true. There are two fully capable apps to use with Myfantasyleague. Both are free, neither is an 'official' MFL product. MFL Mobile is my choice but MFL Premium is also alive and kicking. There really are not any significant differences between the two other than layout. As I mentioned weeks ago there is coding in place to make our web page mobile device friendly. But to be honest the apps are a better way to manage your team on the go. The two I mentioned are available in the Apple App Store and I'm guessing also in the Android equivalent. 

4....I gave it a couple of weeks for the draft season to settle down and I emailed the PrimeTime Draft folks. They were very generous with responses to my questions and concerns. It turns out that the panic I went through just before the draft when I found the draft I had so carefully set up hadn't carried over to my laptop was overblown. That draft, and every other one I had played around, with was available to download from their servers. I just hadn't dug into the FAQ deep enough. In my defense the answers were not easy to find even if I had known about where to look in that FAQ. They promised to look at improving that.

And finally, 5... As I sat down to type this the Wednesday waiver results came my way via email. Looks like I have to seriously reconsider how I determine what to bid on FAs. I missed out on each of my two bids by, well, a shitload of waiver cash. Back to the $5 bin for the Flyers.

Can we all wish a Happy 2nd Birthday to the apple of my eye, the divine Miss Ellis Rose?
