So Adrian Peterson can't play tonight, since it is Monday and all my other players have played... The only player I can drop/cut is Peterson.

So I have to gamble, pick up Gerhart and hope he can out score Idonije. The game is tied up....

If I lose, biggest mistake I have ever made, if I can make it to the championship game because of it, it is all gravy baby and I get paid for first or second place.

:(

I almost made a similar call last week, was ready to cut P. Harvin to get D. Mason in cuz I was afraid I'd lose. Well, yahoo didn't let me, and I still won.

But good luck to you, like you said if it helps you win some $ this year it might just be worth it

I guess the real question would be, why didn't you have Gerhart on your roster already? If this is a money keeper league and he was available on the waiver wire, shouldn't you have insured your best player with a solid handcuff like Toby?

Hope it worked out for you though and you're playing for a championship. You just gave someone a nice christmas present though. Or better yet, hopefully nobody notices and you're still able to a claim him back on your team.

Lost on all levels, Gerharts fumble did me in.

So I lost one of my best guys, luckily I have a very solid team... I should of started Torain like I had originally set my team, oooops.

And then you really f**ked up when you wrote 'of' instead of 'have'
