Squealy, if I didn't love your "sports bio" so much, I'd curse you.

posted by tselson at 10:23 PM on October 03, 2007

Wow. I got ice blue. A completely calamitous week.

posted by worldcup2002 at 10:31 PM on October 03, 2007

I seem to have slipped into mid table mediocrity a little early this year.

posted by owlhouse at 02:11 AM on October 04, 2007

W00t, I'm on the up. If only my players would stop getting sent off and/or injured I'd be flying :)

Squealy, if I didn't love your "sports bio" so much, I'd curse you. No need. I'll make a drunken, knee-jerk transfer soon that will knock the stuffing out of my tream. This week it's bye bye the "injured" Mikael Arteta who then promptly plays and gets an assist.

Hells yeah! Top ten, here I come! I propose we also keep track of the biggest movers in the league, too. But only when it's me.

posted by The_Black_Hand at 07:58 AM on October 04, 2007

keep track of the biggest movers in the league WooHoo! That's Me! Bottom of the table in week two, 12th by week 8. "Lord, thank you for Sesc Fabragas." p.s. *thumps chest twice* - much respect to squealy. These tables are awesome, but even better is your overall standing. 6,192nd of 2,000,000! That's smoking, man.

Cheers r8rh8r27, or can I call you r8? (old joke alert). It's still early doors yet though. Plenty of time to plummet into obscurity.

I'm freeeeee...Free faaaalllliiiinn'!

posted by Jeffwa at 10:50 AM on October 04, 2007

OK, I'll go out on a limb (again) and say it (but this time, with a wince): Top 10 this week!

posted by worldcup2002 at 11:04 AM on October 04, 2007

Plenty of time to plummet into obscurity. For some of us, there's no time like the present.

posted by chicobangs at 01:45 PM on October 04, 2007

WooHoo! That's Me! Bottom of the table in week two, 12th by week 8. Or me, 28th (of 30) in week one. 3rd in week seven. Which means not too much stock can be placed in overall movement since those early positions can be just one bad (or good) week. Big shifts later in the season are more of a challenge once the rosters are fine tuned. 18 spots in three weeks is meteoric, nonetheless. On another note, I guess Liver Spots win the Anti-Tinkerman award. He's the only one to not have made a transfer (and was 13th best this week which makes my crap week look even worse).

For some of us, there's no time like the present. Follower. I've been here all season. Respect.

A couple of rotating Rafa links for wc2002 and the other wannabee scousers on SpoFi: Revealed! Rafa's rotation policy Play Fantasy Rafa

posted by squealy at 06:45 AM on October 05, 2007

Not that squealy needs the patronizing, but Birmingham clearly deserved a point against United. I need to get some of those Blues boys on my team.

posted by Texan_lost_in_NY at 11:34 AM on October 05, 2007

Those are two great links Squealy! Also, I think I missed the explanation of the ups and downs table. Nice to be near the top of something for a change though.

posted by billsaysthis at 04:51 PM on October 05, 2007

Hahaha, thanks, squealy. Altho, I was expecting a 3D simulation of Rafa spinning around... But seriously, folks, looks like this gameweek 9 is going to be a good one. I've got more points now with just two games done, than I have from all of last week. Top 10 for sure!

posted by worldcup2002 at 10:10 AM on October 06, 2007

Well, no. 12, as it turns out. But certainly within touching distance of the top 10. Can't wait for week 10!

Keep your hands to yourself.

Afraid, are we now, tselson? Mwahahahahahaha!
