Lots of doom and gloom this week. Lets talk about the game Ty had. Hopefully McCarthy finally gives him and others consistently playing time. Ty has earned it. He's fun to watch.

yeah if his last name was Spiller and he had the exact same game people wouldn't be freaking out so bad about our back up RB.

Ty is a big, strong dude and has more upside than Abby. Would like to see Davis make more of his opportunities, and of course Aaron to get his house in order. But yeah, always been a huge fan of Montgomery.

I absolutely love this guy. He needs to stay on the field.

Montgomery has been practicing as RB for over a month now and Aaron Rodgers says that Montgomery is "now a RB" lol

It doesn't say "RB" next to his name on the roster though therefore he can't be a good back up RB and we need to sign a FA that has one of those "RB" things next to his name.

I'm just happy he's making catches and being part of the offense. Between his ankle injury last year and quiet year (TC+first couple of games) I feared he was just a flash in the pan.

Edit: Oh, and I was worried when I heard he had micro-fracture surgery

Under Construction!

What do you not like about Montgomery at RB? He has the size for it and looks like a dang RB lol

Ripowski has the heft but not the speed. Monty has the speed but not the heft.

beast (57m) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (58m) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (5h) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (5h) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (6h) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (6h) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (6h) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (7h) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (10h) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

dfosterf (10h) : Zero- Did you see what I posted about Voice of Reason and his wife? She posted over at fleaflicker that they are both "In"

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Well, not crazy, it makes sense. Crazy I didn't notice/find it earlier

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : it's crazy how one stored procedure to get data bogged everything down for speed here

dfosterf (7-Aug) : to herd cats or goldfish without a bowl. They reminded me of the annual assembly of our fantasy league

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

wpr (7-Aug) : seems faster. yay

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Wife of reason posted on the in/out thread on fleaflicker that both she and vor are in

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : This page was generated in 0.135 seconds.

Mucky Tundra (7-Aug) : Tbh, I can never tell the difference in speed unless it's completely shitting the bed

Zero2Cool (7-Aug) : Sure does feel like site is more snappy

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : I thought that was the Lions OL

Mucky Tundra (6-Aug) : Travis Glover placed on IR; seasons over for him

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Update: Rock has tried a cheese curd, promises it's not his last

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : watch it!! lol

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : you're right, we never did leave, the site just went down :P

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Rock claims to have never eaten a cheese curd

Zero2Cool (3-Aug) : We did not leave.

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin
