May we get a refresher course on what the colors mean and what the two different tables are? Sorry to be daft, but I forget. Not that it matters because my team sucks!

Should be an interesting week coming up with Arsenal, Everton, Man City, and Spurs not playing.

Well it looks like the colors in the blue spectrum are the 3 lowest scores of the week, and I got drenched with a big fucking bucket of Man City shit! I hate this game! (Not really...but I should.)

The color on my name, and all of its blue-hued derivatives, mean you sucked the pipe this week. The bright, happy, sunshiny yellows, reds and oranges mean you kicked ass.

Yeah, it is demonstrated well on the form table. The top 5 scores each week get a colour (in some sort of gradation from red to light yellow, ie hot colours). The bottom three get shades of blue (from light to dark blue, ie cold). Unfortunately, I find that some of the colours can look pukey on some monitors. They were carefully selected. With Arsenal not playing this week that bodes well for me in terms of the good form this week by the Henry-philes. (of course, the following week....)

I'm confused. What the fuck is a "colour", commie?

Disastrous week. You know it's bad when a Watford defender is your best scorer..

You know it's bad when a Watford defender is your best scorer Makes me happy I stole your idea though. He's a damned fine bargain.

Thank god for auto-subs. Didn't realize the deadline was right at gametime and edited my lineup thinking it was for the weekend. Luckily, both guys are missing games and it did no damage.

It's one of those weeks where you hope one of your guys doesn't play after a sub has a great game. Aarrgh. I dropped 10 or more pts behind the top two but I have a goalie with 6 and a midfielder with 9 sitting on the bench. And it is unlikely that they will be subbed in. And surely, what will happen is that one of my guys in the lineup will start on the bench tomorrow but be subbed in after 89 minutes.

I also have the 9 point midfielder on the bench concern. Thankfully I played the 6 point keeper.

Same boat. Quinn will go in for me though, here's hoping for you though. You guys are way too far away from me to care.

Quinn stays on the bench for me. Drat!

What a good day to switch captain back to Lampard, eh? My backup keeper, the only decent scoring sub, got 6 but since van der Saar didn't play will get auto-subbed. W00t! For a change.

Hey Fergie, thanks for sitting Evra. I mean that in a thankful, and not sarcastic, way.
posted by gspm at 05:28 PM on January 31, 2007
Or not. Crap. Second time that has happened to me. The sub has points on the table but can't be subbed in due to that making an illegal formation. Drats.
