I have the choice of alfred blue vs the browns or jeremy hill vs the saints

blue - yahoo says the browns are giving up the 17th most fantasy points to RBs this year but if you go by actual NFL.com stats - theyre actually the 5th worst run D giving up an average of 134 yds/game and 7 TDs.

hill - they give up the 12th most points but theyre actually a middle-of-the-road run D giving up 106 yds/game but they have also given up 10 TDs on the ground.

Im inclined to start hill and i think these stats woulve held a little more water if arian foster was playing, but hes not.

what do you guys think ?

yahoo 12 team league - standard scoring.

I give up - isiah crowell (cle) and jordy nelson

I get back - eddie lacy and marques colson

Im in desperate need of an RB snce rashad jennings went out for the year and somehow i gave up on ben tate. My WRs right now are nelson, julio jones and cordarrelle patterson. nelson is absolutley killing it this season while colson hasnt done a whole lot.

What do you guys think ? If you need more details, let me know. thanks.

Im moving to the Baytown area next month for a new job. the complex where i'll be living is cable-ready and i asked the office what cable provider they use and they told me Comcast. ( oh god )....

Like many of you, i've seen the stories on yahoo about the horrid customer service that comcast has. Is there another cable company in houston / baytown that isnt as bad ?? ( good cust svc, low rates, etc )

I'm currently in afghanistan working for a contractor. I know theres some stipulation where if youre overseas youre entitled to tax free income if youre out of the US more than 330 days.

I filed my 2013 income tax return in april and I owed. i was gone for a total of 455 days. i remembered that exemption and i went back to the tax office the next day and we found out that i could file an ammended tax return. we didn that and i will instead receive a return.

got a letter in the mail yesterday from the IRS saying that im not elidgeable to file an ammended return and im not entitled to a refund.

is there someone that can help me with a code or rule that explains tax-exempt income ? Ive been looking on the IRS website but so far i havent had any luck.

10 team league, standard scoring yadda yadda....

Right now my receivers are -

aj green

vincent jackson

cecil shorts

bench wr's are jerico cotchery and jordan matthews

eric decker and brandin cooks are available on the waiver wire. decker will certainly be the #1 guy on the jets but geno smith is a lot different than peyton manning. also cooks is looking like hes going to be the slot guy in new orleans

which one would you prefer ?

I have a phone interview this wednesday ( 6/25 ) with a company back in the states ( im currently working overseas )

i was looking up some questions to ask after the interview and theres an article on the forbes website that says asking about your interviews background is a bad thing

link to article - http://www.forbes.com/sites/jacquelynsmith/2013/07...

i was just curious about this - arent i supposed to ask about what some of their experiences have been like ? for example, one of the interviewers has been with the company for 15 years and i wanted to ask her what it is about the job that makes her stay that long. i thought that would be a great question.

Ive been doing my homework and i want to make sure i nail this one. Thanks in advance.

I retired from the USAF in 2012, and I'm currently working overseas. Im looking for a new job back in the states and one of the questions I'm getting a lot on applications is "am I an armed forces service medal veteran" ?

I served in Operation Provide Promise but is there a way I can look at what ribbons I've earned. I tried logging onto AFPC but they want a CAC card, and I dont have a card reader.

I want to be able to prove to a company that I am indeed a service medal veteran.

Can someone hook me up ?

Thanks

Has anyone else having to deal with this ? I signed up for fantasy football like always, and now i have these silly team names.... "my perfect team", "my pro team", "my team".....

all i want to do i use my team name that ive been using for the last five years.

Do i have to be assigned to a league first ? this is the first time in my memory that i've had this issue.

I had an ammended return for 2013 and also for 2012. my local tax office gave us the papers and we mailed them into the IRS. fast forward to today - we checked the IRS website and they only list our 2012 return. is there a number we can call to check on our 2013 return and speak to an ACTUAL FREAKING PERSON ??

so tired of pressing buttons and listening to voice prompts.

can anyone help me please ?

I retired from the US Air Force in 2012. I was a heavy equipment vehicle mechanic in my career and now i have a job overseas.

Before I retired, I went to the Readiness Center on base and they helped me prepare a resume based on my experience - that resume got me my current job. I've been overseas for a little over a year and a half with only a three-week vacation to go home and see the family. I'm a little burned out I guess.

I applied for a job back in the states, and there was a link to get a professional opinion of your resume. I got a reply back a few days later and it said I had all the qualifications necessary for a job, however it didnt "sing" ( I guess thats the best way to put it ) Then the company went on to offer its services for about $400.

My question is - one, is that a fair price for a resume and two, do professionally-written resumes really make THAT MUCH difference ?

Thanks in advance.

This is really pissing me off. I have a Toshiba satellite C855D laptop and sometimes when I'm using the touchpad - the size of the page changes on its own. Facebook is now in tiny (like maybe 6 point) font while my site for work where I have to enter my time electronically - is huge (maybe 14 point)

its really irritating. can someone PLEASE help me out so I can correct the sizes ???

thanks in advance

Im overseas at the moment. At our army camp, dinner is served at 5pm and the guy I work out with goes to the gym at 7pm. problem is every time I've worked out with him, I've basically gassed him out by farting. I keep telling him this is what happens when I work out after dinner.

here's what I dont understand - when you work out after dinner, you basically burn off what you just ate which makes no sense to me. I would rather work out before I eat. The advantage to working out with this guy is that I lift weights with him and I know lifting weights is good for weight loss.

can someone please explain this to me ?

thanks.

I'm applying for a job in canada as a heavy equipment mechanic. I currently live in las vegas and my wife and son will be coming with me.(my daughter will be staying in vegas because she's already in college)

my son graduates high school next june and he wants to go to college. how difficult will it be for him to get into school ??

I need some help with my RBs. I currently have three choices for my RB2 slot.

my starter is CJ-no-K vs oakland, however i've found that deangelo williams (vs miami) and chris ogbonnaya (vs pitt) are free agents.

i checked the stats and oakland is actually #6 in run D allowing only 97 yds/game, while miami and pittsburgh are two of the worst at #25 and #26 respectively allowing 122 and 125 yds/game. theyre both allowing over 20 fantasy points per game to RBs as well.

i dont really like the platoon situation in carolina so should i roll with the browns guy as my RB2 or just stay with johnson ??

yahoo 10-team league, standard scoring... blah blah blah

what do you guys think ?

I got a big game tomorrow. I'm going up against the #1 team in my league (Im #2). He's 6-0 and Im 5-1. This is my ESPN league but its the same scoring as any yahoo league.

I have 5 WRs on my team - megatron, TY hilton, greg jennings, justin blackmon, and demaryius thomas. Im playing hilton and blackmon at my two WR slots and jennings at my flex.

Im starting these three based on the match-ups.... denver's pass d is the worst in the league (starting hilton),san diego's pass d is 25th in the league (starting blackmon) and the giant pass d is 20th. (starting jennings)... conversely the colts d is ranked 5th (sitting thomas) and the bengals d is ranked 9th (sitting megatron)

now heres where im running into a dilema - i dont know how jennings is going to fare with josh freeman at QB, although i kinda want to keep jennings in my line-up because he plays monday night, while my opponent plays all his guys on sunday so that monday night match-up could be pretty important.

HELP !! what would you guys do ??

Just got offered a trade and I was wondering what the yahoo community thought of it.

I'll give - tavon austin / torrey smith and I'll receive - CJ2K and kenbrell thompkins

My team looks like this so far...

QBs - RG3 / alex smith

WRs - demaryius thomas / torrey smith / randall cobb / tavon austin / greg jennings

RBs - alfred morris / marshawn lynch / lamar miller

TEs - jarred cook / greg olson

D/ST - chiefs / rams

I'll need RB help in week 12 when seattle in on the bye and miller has been pretty much garbage this year. I really want to keep austin but the rams offense is absolutely horrid. i really dont need WR help because I can run with thomas, cobb and jennings and just use thompkins as a bye-week filler.

what would you guys do ?

I love this time of year - all the IMPORTANT questions come out...I have a choice to make and I'd like some advice. I have to chose one guy for my RB2 slot.

Reggie Bush vs Arizona

Alfred Morris vs Green Bay

Both the Cards and Packers run D was pretty stingy last week. Arizona allowed just 67 yards in the loss to the Rams and Green Bay allowed only 90 yards on the ground to the 49ers. Trouble is, bush and morris are both pretty good pass-catching backs too. (we all know how bad the pack was torched through the air)

Im in a yahoo ten team league,.... blah blah blah (the usual) lol.

who would you guys go with - my RB1 is arian foster BTW.

Im depressed that fantasy football is over, so i decided to try my hand at fantasy nascar through yahoo.

you chose two A list drivers, four B list, and two C list

my team is kevin harvick (A), kyle busch (B), Junior (B), and regan smith (C) as starters with brad keselowski (A), greg biffle (B), paul menard (B) and travis kvapil (C) on my bench

some stats will surprise you. i chose paul menard for example because he completed 98.5% of his laps and in the last 20 races, his avearage finish was 14.8. travis kvapil completed 93.8% of his laps with a 23.8 avg finish.

i chose harvick because i think he has a great chance of winning the 500. he's been fast all week, had two victories and he's starting third, and brad keselowski because he's the champ firstoff, and second in his last 20 races he's had an average finish of 6.7 while completing 98.9% of his laps..

I think i have a great team. what does everyone else think

I'm trying to increase my withholding for 2013 and I want to change it to 15%. All I really need to know is do i use my gross or net monthly pay to base that percentage off of ??

If you answer, if you provide a link - that would be really helpful. thanks.

I've been struggling to find a good set of earphones that wont fall out of my ears every ten seconds. I actually found my latest set that ive been using and Ive tried changing out the sizes of the tips (medium to large) and when i'm on the treadmill at the gym, they still fall out of my ears.

are there any brands of good quality over the ear headphones?? I dont want something that makes my music sound like it was recored through a tin can. I'm not talking about over ear units (like the beats series), but the ones that hook over your ears.

does anyone have a suggestion. ive tried everything i can think of including switching the sizes of the tips and switching the sides (wearing the right ear bud in my left ear... etc) but nothing has worked so far.

please help
