Nowadays, I don't need that help. The reason? All the knowledge I've picked up here over the days have made me a better Fantasy manager.<br /><br />However, I still come here. Day out and day in. I read every post and from time to time I talk in the chat. Getting feedback about player picks is always nice. Same with giving feedback about others.<br /><br />So, thanks for the blog, and keep up the good work.<br /><br />And to end it all. 118pts this week, I'm just outside top 1000 now. <br /><br />//Naning (Yea, you and all the other english talking people need to learn how to spell it ;) )Naningnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-80761061418242192742009-12-14T09:58:20.999+00:002009-12-14T09:58:20.999+00:00An interesting fact - Diaby might play as a strike...An interesting fact - Diaby might play as a striker due to Arsenal's lack of forwards. It's not based on any saying of Wenger, but this rumor has been going on since RVP got injured along with Bendtner, while EdS is underperforming.<br />Diaby is under 7mil right now, but I believe anyone should wait until we see how well he plays in that position, if at all.<br /><br />SFAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-40941483434376223802009-12-14T09:21:48.423+00:002009-12-14T09:21:48.423+00:00Hi AM,

I have scoured the web and your posts are a delight and oh so helpful towards picking a team. <br /><br />I am lover of the English Premiership since 1993 from South Africa. I have played yahoo fantasy football since 2001 and have enjoyed relatively good success with my teams always falling within well of the 90percentile of players in the world. Yahoo fantasy football is more than just a game its a tool that enhances my premiership football watching experience and I love it. Why else would I watch tentatively watch a Birmingham vs Burnley game and know all the players involved. This is where you come in AM. You posts are refreshing and put together so that its a joy to read and so simple to understand. You post most days and i refresh my page in anticipation with regard to injuries what happened the games etc and whats to follow. This week I had a good week and even though you didnt do so good I did well because of the players you suggested...benitez, bowyer, anelka, o hara etc...its just luck sometimes thats the difference when it comes down to final selection. So I say pay no mind to the haters out there that have nothing good to say about you and keep banging in a great blog!!Regannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-37044948305683330732009-12-14T07:07:32.668+00:002009-12-14T07:07:32.668+00:00this blog is the best thing that hit me since i st...this blog is the best thing that hit me since i started playing yff 3 years ago.. i'm #1 in two of my private league, and 4th in another.. this has to be my best year so far.. thanks AM for all your posts and also other regular poster advices..

I've been really busy with school and work and haven't had a chance to pick my team after doing research or reading the suggestions on here. I will be done December 19 for the semester, meaning I will be trying to come back to the community christmas shopping permitted. I have been asking a few friends and it may be possible to do multiple person podcasts here meaning actually entertaining podcasts! <br /><br />As for all of the assholes on here, don't worry about it. The fact your not first in YFF means nothing because your analysis is meant for people to make their own informed decisions and when it comes down to it, it's luck for who scores points. P.S.

I'm the guy that kept asking you to confirm the double week-my other fantasy games did not play it this way - and I appreciated your honest candor in answering my question, and the fact that you did not belittle my complete stupidity.<br /><br />I relied heavily on your insight, particularly in avoiding possible 2 yellow card double gamers, and I had my biggest week yet so far -135 points with everybody in my squad still with a game to play.<br /><br />What I really appreciate most is the constant content. Who cares where you are sitting in the standings? The place you are writing from is, "Here's my analysis, take it or leave, and good luck." I think the thing we all appreciate most is being able to read something new about the game we love, almost every day.<br /><br />Keep your chin up, and thanks.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00358344909694112023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-75372674924969200452009-12-14T02:12:47.086+00:002009-12-14T02:12:47.086+00:00Hi AM,

Everyone is coming out to support George Bailey when he is at his weakest! AM believe me you have really started something with your blood, sweat, and tears. I'm sure your ranking has suffered a bit for it. This game is more difficult than it seems. Just look at your first paragraph. Premier league is that undpredictable and there are times this season when I've cursed the unpredictable nature of this entire game. You do a service for obviously a great number of people! You make what is a completely unpredictable game more manageable and certainly a lot more engaging. I'm lucky enough to have hooked a friend into this blog and he was quick enough to get into one of the blog leagues where Teckno didn't grab all the spots ;), last week I congatulated him on squeaking into the next round. <br /> <br />I was out of work for five months and I can tell you when I wasn't searching out possible employment I was reading your blog daily. Unfortunately due to starting a new job and moving to a new city I haven't been able to comment as much as I would like, but believe me I still check in here everyday and I read the posts of everyone else in this community. It is like all of us have a draft war room where we can congregate and tinker with the possibilities of our line ups. We have a place to vent our frustrations, celebrate our successes, and dissect our decisions. There are not a lot of places that I have found that allow for that type of cooperation. <br /><br />So to all of the haters listen up this man has started something legit and no matter what you say you can take that away from him. If you follow his words and you fail to make your own choices and those selections don't pan out, blame yourself for not doing your own research, not betting on your own hunches, and not denying your own groaning gut picks. AM, I hope you get a chance to read this and by all means please don't stop doing what you are doing!Douchebag Unitednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-19694355747371725142009-12-13T20:39:10.498+00:002009-12-13T20:39:10.498+00:00although i'm my overall ranks not good enough,...although i'm my overall ranks not good enough, but still manage to lead my private league.. it's all because of your advices, and also the member of this blog advices that helps me a lot.. keep it up your great work, don't care about those bunch of idiot.. <br /><br />cheers,<br />SMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-63256953530453877822009-12-13T20:23:05.802+00:002009-12-13T20:23:05.802+00:00A great game tonight, and of course a fantastic re...A great game tonight, and of course a fantastic result - it's fantastic to finally watch Arsenal use their spirit and bravery to win an important away match such as this one.<br />I had 3 gunners for today - Vermaelen which is finally back in business (and also won Man of the Match), with 7 great phantom points; Arshavin who didn't start the season well, but for the last couple of weeks shows good form, and when he comes to Anfield...; and Nasri. Nasri is a great player, and I thought he was one of the best players on the pitch today, so 3 points from him is a real shame. To be fair with him, the reason I picked 3 gunners for the DG week wasn't the game at Anfield. Nasri usually gets a lot of phantom points, and against Burnley he can still work his magic. He's a player I really want home to Hull.<br /><br />Happy Hannuka!<br />SFAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030086474399228114.post-77654158252316973582009-12-13T19:17:24.602+00:002009-12-13T19:17:24.602+00:00AM we love you man.
