WHAT A DAY!!!!

Thanksgiving - a day of food, family and football - and for a lucky few, a day unlike any other in the fantasy world....
All three games were blowouts, with some hefty fantasy numbers turned in by a number of players...and for once, I didn't have to say my big scorers were "on the bench".
My one team has a 99-5 lead going into Sunday...after big days by RB Brian Westbrook & Chris Johnson and K Rob Baronas...if I don't win my game, you will hear a scream....

I WON, BUT DID IT AGAIN...

Matt Cassel 33 points in my league... (Say it with me) ON THE BENCH!..at least I won my game..

Two things to watch this week...Thursday's Thanksgiving games begin around noon...make sure to set your lineups and don't get burned by players being locked out...

Playoffs begin next week and some leagues don't allow any waiver moves - think ahead and get rid of some dead weight by picking up a potential gem....

Happy Thanksgiving!

...ON THE BENCH.

The three words to describe my season...I can't believe I sat Matt Cassel for 36 points and Kerry Collins for 19....either play would have given me an easy victory instead of a two point nailbiter (Played Matt Ryan for 9 points). Let's not forget Marshawn Lynch for 22 while I played Brian Westbrook for 7...AHHHHHHHH!

I dumped all my extra players (DEF/K) and grabbed some spare parts which could pay dividends down the road....you might do the same.....

BYES ARE OVER

Now is the time to dump the extra kicker and defense you've been carrying and go get some players who could help down the stretch....yes, the cream may be picked...but there are some waiver wire gems still to be had....also, look at teams who may be out of the hunt...those benchwarmers could get a chance to play and shine for you.
Be wary - teams may start sitting players once they clinch and you could lose a stud for your playoff game.

Another note of caution....don't wait too long to put an injured stud back into the lineup...I left Colston on the bench this week, it may cost me since lee Evans had another stellar game...2 points....

ANOTHER LOSS...

Time to throw in the towel...another loss and Schaub on shelf for at least two weeks...Sigh...

Hit the waiver wire early if you need a QB, since others are probably doing the same...also last week of byes - picking might begin to get slim...

Also, look for players who have been underperforming that folks have given up on...they may shine and be the difference between winning and losing...
