Yeah, I will post a lineup at some point today. It probably would be nice to have this stickied like last year.

I would have totally drafted Osman in like the 10th or so if I thought he was returning. He will probably score like 175 this year.

Damn, no Gomis in line-up.

But Crouch certainly won't start.

Palace will get hosed.

And Southampton likely too.

So, I'm kind of stuck with what I got.

You gotta watch with tabulating your score too early, there have been instances where player scores have changed. So make sure to double-check your numbers tomorrow.

Will do. I was just curious as to how we stood. What did yall say was the good "magic number" score to get to where you would win most games?

Hmmmm, I've never really look into that. I'm not sure there is a good answer, honestly. There were weeks that I was sure I was going to get the win only to see my opponent have someone with a brace that they had captained. Other weeks, I was in the 20s and thought there was no way I would win, but did.

According to the league rules, 40s average to a bit above average and 50+ will win you most games. I was pretty happy getting in the 40s last year.

It's just like any other fantasy league where you'll score well but play the one or 2 guys in the league who go off too then some weeks you'll throw up like 30 and still win.

I am actually going to calculate what the average was last year soon, so we have a real answer even though 40 is a solid guess for slightly above average.

Everyone should add their roster to the watch list. If War, etm, and tigerstark do not know what I mean, then I will walk you through it.
