Title: Midway through... Disappointments
Post by StegRock on Oct 26^th, 2006, 10:26pm

I'm putting this here on "the Sidelines" because you are invited to list teams or players in general OR players or team defenses/special teams you have or had on your fantasy team(s).

...

For my part I'm going to list...

The Cardinals [smiley=chicken.gif] and Edgerrin James, in general. I am quite surprised that this team and this tailback are doing this poorly.

As for fantasy-wise,...

...Back to the Chickens, [smiley=chicken.gif] in JYJ's league Kurt Warner, who I had drafted and subsequently dropped, has laid a HUGE... [smiley=egghead.gif] Also, Ernest Wilford, [smiley=wildcat.gif] another dude I invested a draft pick in and had to drop, has been VERY lackluster, even with Matt Jones sidelined for much of the season so far. Tony Gonzalez [smiley=chief.gif] has been a bit disappointing, too, relatively speaking, but I am holding out hope.

...In the GBRFL, I, finally, this past week gave up on Ashley Lelie, [smiley=turkey.gif] but I am still holding out hope on Cedric Benson, [smiley=bear.gif] Ron Dayne, [smiley=texan.gif] and, I suppose, Jake Plummer. [smiley=horsey.gif] But, I can't say I am not disappointed in how things are going for these guys. Donte Stallworth's [smiley=eagle.gif] injury has also been quite a drag, and, moreover, has opened the door for Reggie Brown... to establish himself as a legit go-to-guy and just as good of an option as Stallworth, I fear. :-/

Well,... here's this journalist's choice: his home team... And, he thinks the worst is yet to come... [smiley=yikes.gif] From a LOCAL source courtesy of "The REAL Feed":

The worst yet to come? (David Elfin / THE WASHINGTON TIMES) (http://www.washingtontimes.com/sports/20061027-122323-8776r.htm)

The NFL's most disappointing team this season also faces a troubling question about its long-term future: Is the worst yet to come for the Washington Redskins?

Thats easy

Its the turnover kings, the Pittsburgh Steelers. No doubt about it. 2 and 4 is not going to get it done if you are the defending champ.

My fantasy dissapointment is Ronnie Brown and Chris Chambers. I could have traded them to any one of the fella's in the duece before the season started. Now that whole Dolphin team resembles the 2001 Detroit Lions.
