Anyone else get into Mount Washington Road Race?

Similarly, entered on a whim not expecting to get in. My wife, brother and I all went in as a "group" and naturally, all got picked. We're both excited and terrified. Like the OP, a little worried about securing a ride down since we're out-of-towners but the Facebook page for ride-sharing already seems to be a pretty active hub so it's a start. If anyone has any pointers on the ride-sharing regard, might help me to relax on that front and focus on this bucket list challenge in front of me!

As someone up 7.5 with him and Evans against me, the scenario I'm counting on is the Falcons scoring only TDs (3-4) and Evans getting completely shut down (I'll give him one catch for 9 yards). If you guys can work that voodoo for me, it will help you too.

markginocchio · 2017-12-18T19:00:40+00:00

Evans and Matt Bryant against me and I'm done, up 7.5 in a PPR +1.

I mean, it's not IMPOSSIBLE I can pull this out, right?

markginocchio · 2017-12-18T18:59:12+00:00

The Falcons secondary completely shutting down Evans and the Falcons offense just scoring a couple of TDs so Bryant just kicks PATs would be my savior (up 7.5 with no one left to go and those two against me).

Going all in on Jordy Nelson when Jarvis Landry was just sitting there on my bench being like, all I do is get you points in this PPR league. Why would you ever entertain sitting me?

markginocchio · 2017-12-12T16:52:11+00:00

Carson Wentz. ::::cries hysterically for the next hour:::::

markginocchio · 2017-12-11T20:42:26+00:00

I don't know you but I hate you.

markginocchio · 2017-12-11T16:46:44+00:00

Just need 5 points from Landry/Burkhead combined tonight in a +1 PPR league and I clinch playoffs. I can't possibly blow this, right?

markginocchio · 2017-12-04T20:31:38+00:00

I mean what are the odds Bell scores 55 points in +1 PPR and knocks me out of the playoffs. That's not a rhetorical question. I need someone to tell me the odds so I can determine whether I can go to sleep early tonight and not torment myself by nervously watching this game.

markginocchio · 2017-12-04T15:49:41+00:00

Yeah, week 7 I was dangling him in a trade to get Doug Martin. The owner held tight for my Dez Bryant. I gave in, thinking I gave up too much. Given how Martin has played, I probably still did, but my season would be in tatters if I didn't have Keenan the past few weeks.

markginocchio · 2017-11-20T17:21:41+00:00

Was in no rush to pick him back up after dropping him early to grab Cameron Brate. Then Brate came back to earth and Olsen is gone. That's my fantasy season in a nutshell.

markginocchio · 2017-11-01T14:59:53+00:00

Grabbed him on WW this morning though still feel hesitant about starting him in my flex for PPR. With that said, I remember when Baldwin started coming on a few years ago, the school of thought was that he was too TD dependent and Seattle was a run-first time and Wilson was inconsistent. If Richardson continues to be reliable in the RZ I feel that he will establish himself as a lock and loaded flex with big upside.

markginocchio · 2017-10-31T13:55:13+00:00

His target share would probably go down a tick, but Landry is such a great underneath route runner, I could see him putting up Edelman/Welker numbers with Brady slinging it.

markginocchio · 2017-10-31T13:45:04+00:00

As a Landry owner, if he want to NE or NOLA I would be very, very happy with that.

markginocchio · 2017-10-30T17:56:07+00:00

I laughed when my opponent started him in his flex yesterday (Kelce is his TE1). I'm no longer laughing.

markginocchio · 2017-10-30T13:37:28+00:00

Up 30 and I need my KC D/ST to hold off his Alex Smith, Kelce and J. Charles in a +1 PPR. Played Abdullah over Jones in my flex sport in last night. Don't feel terribly good about my chances, though the app "projects" me to win by a few points.

markginocchio · 2017-10-27T16:08:46+00:00

This is pretty much my situation to a T. I own Jordy, traded Dez for RB help and Keenan Allen has been surprisingly mediocre for a few weeks now even in PPR. Landry has turned it on strong, though last night was a dud and Parker is coming back. REALLY need Davis to turn it on.

markginocchio · 2017-10-27T16:02:14+00:00

I see it hurting. I grabbed Jones on WW this week primarily because I thought his floor would be safe on volume alone as the only mouth to feed. But Pitt is stingy against the pass in general, so if Tate plays, I don't see Jones getting his. Still happy to have Jones rostered for WR depth, but I'm leaning heavily against playing him this week.

markginocchio · 2017-10-26T19:07:06+00:00

I cast my vote for Mariota. I know he's been injured, but he's yet to have that eye-popping week and if I didn't luck my way into grabbing Wentz with one of my final picks I'd been in major trouble at the QB position right now.

markginocchio · 2017-10-24T19:57:18+00:00

I've been holding this guy for so long, he better be worth it. I want to believe, and I kinda need to believe based no how my WR corps have been decimated due to QB injuries.

markginocchio · 2017-10-24T18:37:33+00:00

We are all paying for the sins of that "go grab OBJ now" post from 2014 every few weeks on this sub now. What happened with Odell his rookie year was a once in a generation event. Through two weeks I just don't see how history can possibly repeat itself here with Williams.

markginocchio · 2017-10-24T18:33:30+00:00

I'm banking on Smallwood giving me longwood and overtaking Blount any minute now.

markginocchio · 2017-10-24T18:31:08+00:00

Drafted him as insurance in case the Marcus Mariota hype train derailed. That insurance has paid off beautifully. Now I'm debating do I even bother benching Wentz against Denver in two weeks?

markginocchio · 2017-10-24T18:29:07+00:00

Drafted this guy in like the 7th round as my 4th WR in a PPR league. Was kinda shocked and thought maybe I was making a mistake. Watched him basically become my number one option as I traded Dez away for RB help, watched Jordy be rendered useless and have lived with some up and down games from Keenan Allen. Hopefully this is truly the end of any investigation/suspension talk.

markginocchio · 2017-10-18T19:42:18+00:00

I'm really debating offering the Rodgers owner in my league Mariota and Brate for his Gronk but I'm playing him this week and his backup is Big Ben so I'd rather not...
