Anyone who drafted him or Hilton or Mack....oof, that's a tough loss.

(7,447 posts)I play five a year. Average winning two leagues a season.
Finished 1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 6th last year.

(7,447 posts)The key is working the waiver wire.
I don't think I've ever drafted a championship team, but I picked up great players off the waiver wire.

(17,311 posts)Especially in football, where there are so many injuries. That said, I'm in one 20-team league and it's mighty slim pickings on the waiver wire, I can tell ya. Being 14th out of 20 in waiver wire priority doesn't help!

(7,447 posts)Woof...no way I'd play that many teams...that just boils down to a large dollop of luck and the vagaries of the draft.
I can't imagine the team that has to start with the 20th QB or 20th TE or who's top running back is like the 20th or 30th guy.

(65,078 posts)His 2 big injuries occurred because he got creamed on those plays, and played behind some dubious o lines.
Indy fans want to boo someone for that, boo Irsay!
