yeah, i'm not out to screw anyone over. If it looks like he'll be injured, I won't accept any.

Yeah, AP is going to be out atleast a week and maybe more. I'm not going to accept any of the trades and screw someone over.

Everyone except for thrill, which two running backs should I start from DeAngelo Williams (never gets many carries, but Foster apparently has turf toe), Michael Pittman (just returning from injury, expected to split carries with Graham), and Lamont Jordan (who for some reason didn't touch the ball last week). I have Reggie Bush as my first back.

I'd start Jordan and Pittman.

I think I'll play it by ear and make a gametime decision. Last week, Jordan was hampered by his back and didn't have a single carry. Pittman's status is still up in the air. At least I know Williams will get some carries. I'd play a WR at the flex position if all my receivers weren't crap.

I assume its not possible for the commish to push the trade deadline back a day or two. I got horribly sick last night and wasn't able to accept a certain trade. I had a paper due the Friday morning, stayed up all night and drank a gallon of Mt Dew (not joking). Completely shut my immune system down.

Well......the option is there. I can move it back 1 or 2 weeks, but that is the maximum allowed. Now, I didn't actually apply the changes so it's possible that it won't let me do it.

That said, we'd need a league vote on the move. Thoughts?

I'm down with it, though I think it may involve me.

Yeah the trade's with clevername. It's not really a blockbuster trade, although we have been in negotiations for a long time with some of the players involved. It's mainly just moving our backups around so its not that big of a deal if people mind; I don't want to burn any bridges over Earnest Graham and Heath Miller. And yes I was physically incapable of accepting that trade yesterday, but at least today I was good enough to get out of bed, although I didn't leave my apartment all-day. At least I had Super Mario Galaxy and Crysis to keep me company. That and nyquil + tylenol + water.
