What has fantasy football come to when you pick a TE for your second pick. I guess he is really a WR in a TE position but still.

Crazy

[Obdigore]

I'm honestly surprised he didn't go before I got him.

After Andre and Calvin are gone he really was, in my mind, the best player still on out there. Can he repeat his '11 season? I don't know, but I do know I have the best TE in the draft and can run weekly positional matchups on receivers easier than you can on a TE.

I'm just giving you a hard time. I was really hoping I could wait until next round to take him. You utterly killed that theory.

If bliss hadn't grabbed brees I would have, and then you could have had The Gronk. I say we blame Bliss.

You've figured me out. I know Steven Erickson fans are the brightest out there, so who better to play FF with?

I spent an afternoon slacking off at work trying to understand the stuff on the Mafia forum once. I may have been trying too hard to make sense of it.

It easy. There are good guys and there are bad guys. Your objective is to eliminate the other side. There are several ways that you can do that. Either through lynching and NKing if your Scum. Or only through lynching if your town. If your scum then you want town to help town to lynch themselves. If your town you know that you might have to lynch several town before you figure out who is one your side and who is a unknown. There are a bunch of roles that get added to games to spice shit up. But that is the game in a nut shell. It generates paranoia and contempt for your fellow man. Also in some of us a little bit of rage. I don't want to point fingers but both Tapper and Obdi play mafia....

And you'll note that he didn't include me in that, because I'm the mafia newbie who's been schooling them in how to play. And now I get to school them all in some FANTASY FOOOOOOOTBAAAAL.

I blame bliss for everything that goes wrong, anyway.

[Obdigore]

Well with Grumble's pick that should be the last TE we see for a couple rounds.

[Tapper]

I had an eye on him for my #14 pick early this round, but figured that with the sheer amount of QBs gone already that I might be better served by getting an RB over Gronkowski, simply because the chance of landing a decent RB2 round 3 at #35 would be next to none. I expect to be /golfclapped and/or thanked in chat for that decision by Obdi .

[Brujah]

Come on Tats, you've been on all night. I distinctly remember a dead Tats tonight in mafia.

Pick!

[Brujah]

Tats said he was drafting Bo Jackson. Cuz Tats knows that Bo knows football.

[Brujah]

I still have the black and white Bo Jackson football card. Old school in nothing but the shoulderpads.

[Slow Ben]

Somewhere in a box at my parents house I've got the old poster of him in his shoulder pads with a baseball bat across his back. I'll dig it out one of these days when I finally have my man cave.

[Tattersail_]

I'll be picking in an hour, sorry if i've been a long time. I get to work and i'll pick asap

[Grumble]

I wanted to pair up the Gronk with Brady but had him snatched away at the last moment ..... still i got a good replacement.

Aye it was a toss up between Gronk and Graham. I'm just worried about all NO players at the moment so I went with Gronk.

What do you think of Victor Cruz?

Quote

NYG receiver Hakeem Nicks who broke his right foot on May 24 during an OTA workout, revealed at the University at Albany this weekend that he intends to rejoin his teammates on the field in mid-August.



"There are definitely no setbacks; everything is going the way we planned, so we're just sticking to the things that the doctors and trainers told us," Nicks said before a group of reporters.



Nicks' return, should it come to pass as soon as he expects, would allow the G-Men to enter Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys armed with their lethal one-two punch at the receiver position.



Last season, VC and Nicks amassed a combined 2,728 yards on 158 receptions, 16 of which were touchdowns. The Giants, due to Mario's departure via free agency, are in need of a reliable third receiver, which is a great problem to have considering how explosive quarterback Eli Manning's first two options are.

Yeah, that's the card I was talking about, in black and white.

[Obdigore]

You have two picks Bru-Bru!

[Brujah]

Oh yeah. Thanks for reminding me. Def forgot.

[Obdigore]

And Tattersail is drafting a goal-line hawk in round 3? Interesting
