Are we going to start this again? its like fantasy football dude...if your guy you pick at noon to start gets hurt in warm-ups, you don't get to change him for a 4:00 p.m. game...

That IS the risk of this...it was clear that we were picking a guy one week at a time...your lucky that you get a replacement at all as jensens had to talk me into doing injury replacements during the season, we were going to wait until after Christmas break to replenish your roster...

Are you even playing for money? If not, just sit back and enjoy the ride. Again, this has never been done before so next year when we are talking about the rules you can speak up then...

my 141 lb'er ettelson is nowhere to be found and i have no information on him either...i have no back-up and i don't even know if he's injured...

I have him in my closet Gofer.

IF you want him back, I want a brown bag full of unmarked $100 bills under the big Red Pine in my back yard by Thursday nite......
Otherwise, you'll never see him again.

wouldn't matter as you are stuck with the guy for the week anyway...

that being said, that is why we have a commissioner....

Thats not the case with wrestling where sometimes its hard to get results of tournaments days after they've happened.

I guess I'm not going to get into a pissing match about this its really not that big deal and Im sure Im not the only one missing out because of this, but I really think it wouldn't hurt you guys to be more open to the ideas of others instead of just determining how things are.

Brother Lost,
Yeah, but if your QB got hurt in warm-ups, or more realistically, in the 1st quarter, you wouldn't get to claim the back-up and his stats in the 2nd half. No fantasy league that I know of operates that way. The various risk factors (injury, last minute benching, head-case, federal indictment) are all part of what makes playing different (and more fun if not fucking maddening!) than just using the Monday AM stats to claim your team. You can't take this game too seriously bro, especially if you (as I believe you have said in the past) you are also really wrestling for a collegiate team. This game should be a stress reliever for you my friend, not an additional burden.

brother LOST, go out and put a bombastic beat down on the next opponent you see....tell him its for your blog boys at wrestlingtalk.com...

if not, go for a move you said you would never try...your coach will kick your ass but you will remember it, trust me...
