Week 2 - Obituary & WEEK 2 Commissioner's Waiver Wire List

Wizard of Buck Pete & Not in Kansas Anymore
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/acT_PSAZ7BQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">https://www.youtube.com/v/acT_PSAZ7BQ</a>

“But here I should imagine the most terrible part of the whole punishment is, not the bodily pain at all—but the certain knowledge that in an hour, then in ten minutes, then in half a minute, then now—this very instant—your soul must quit your body and that you will no longer be a man—and that this is certain, certain!”     ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot

Such is life! 

Top of the league 7 days ago laughing brilliantly at the mess created below, only to see the sill of a shattered waiver wire window.   Buckmaster Pete, a fan favorite and modest personality who is a clever wordsmith and much appreciated talking head, lost his skull today.  He is known for his love of Notre Dame college football, the SF 49ers, and his affinity for young explosive talent.  His week 1 scores blew out the competition with 145 points.  And this week was promising as well, but he was let down by his support of Nyheim Hines, Julio Jones dropped endzone catch, and the Patriots Defense who got shredded by Russell Wilson.    Had any of these lads just brought a modest amount of performance, it might be Statto under the blade and not Montana's Magic.   

If there is a lesson to be learned by Buck's untimely demise, it is that we should appreciate our involvement each day while it is there.   We have lost two greats lads after the fortnight (Carl & Buck Pete) and we must honor their work by using their players to the utmost ability of our remaining teams.  Buck leaves the group a sound array of WRs with some high scoring RBs, but maybe not next week if you know what I mean.  Surely someone will take a flyer on the NE Defense as well.   RIP Buckmaster Full of Peter

Nice write up Trend

Gutted to be going as it was my best shot out of the 3 leagues I'm in

Julio Jones dropped catch will haunt me (and him probably).

Cheers for running it though Pal. Good fun.  Next season again for sure.

Week 3 - Obituary & WEEK 3 Commissioner's Waiver Wire List

Attrickus of Gerrence has been Severenced

“The more I see of the monied classes, the more I understand the guillotine”     ― George Bernard Shaw

When you think about wealth in our guillotine game, there are few fantasy oligarch owners who have more than Gerry Attrick with Russell Wilson.  A self-made owner, GA plucked the top QB in the league in the fourth round from the rest of the herd.  In the early weeks, Wilson was a big difference maker for Gerrence.   And it looked like the same could be said this week, but unfortunately GGMM (Gesicki, Gordon, Moore, and Mixon) led to his early demise (none scoring more than 10 points - making the investment in Russell Wilson all but worthless.   However, old money has secrets, and the big secret here was Gerry's not checking with his medical crew before Sunday, as Devante Adams was for all intensive purposes sidelined with a bad hammy (masked in a game time decision).  Leaving a hobbled player starting in a league like this is just begging the executioner to take off your head.   Statto challenged the fates with this in week 1, but now Gerry Attrick is the one to pay the price.

Alas, the call never came and Gerry's fate was stolen by a sharpened blade and some luck from the upper "Classy" that saved his neck by inches.  Gerrence was a brilliant man, known for his Diontae man love, and his Pulp Fiction impressions.



He was a man of few words, which now has been cut all the more short.   RIP Attrickus of Gerrence.

At 90 points, Attrickus of Gerrence joins his other upper crust friends Buckmaster Pete, and Ball Fondling Carlito's Weigh under the guillotine's cruel glint.  On the bright side, he'll have some time to catch up on his cricket habit as it works well as another headless endeavor.
People who want to send condolences, can send money and wishes to "DRAFTPROS.COM TEAM ORGANIZER --- for when you do not have time to adjust your lineup". 

A of G leaves a pet canary named Carra behind --- and a large estate of players to see below.

Guillotine League 24 Hour News Service Alert



Meritocracy of the Blade

A Major Announcement from the 1st Annual Guillotine League is Pending

"Starting in Week 5, the commissioner hereby decrees that League Guillotine will institute a rise up by your bootstraps competition of lost numbskulls (Carlito, Buckmaster Pete, Gerrence, and week 4's loser) in a winner take all, head re-attachment surgery commissioned by Michael Edwards and his geniuses at Liverpool FC.   Four teams will take waiver wire scraps and construct a four man positional draft run by me ---- to compete only against one another for the privilege of entering back into the league with a budget equal to the lowest player to compete with existing teams in Week 6.
This is not a resurrection stone gift, but one of the four teams that wins Week 5 will be put back together again like Frankenstein.



Points are accumulated the same way as before --- and life continues to exist until it does not.

Players choosing from the waiver wire will not be able to draft their teams until the waiver wire process has been completed for Week 5.   The Commish will run the draft as a snake draft --- and all league members may participate on RAWK watching the picks coming in and commenting.

This is the only and final opportunity to win a league for many of you, so make sure you choose wisely.   The 4 team death hallows draft will take place on Wednesday evening BST or Thursday afternoon BST of next week October 7th or 8th depending upon schedules.   

You can only select from the waiver wire, it is not a bid process.   You have to win your way back into that.




Any comments may be sent to my personal assistant --- Phouck Eue or Phouck Auiffe

Week 4- Obituary & WEEK 4 Commissioner's Waiver Wire List

Simon Says Statto Slashed by Roster Slip

“To drive free, to love free, to court destruction with taunts, to feed the remainder of life with one hour of fullness and freedom - one brief hour of madness and joy.”     ― Walt Whitman

You Didn't Say Simon Says


It is a difficult feat to taunt death twice and live.  Only a few get away with it.  Josey Wales, Charlie Daniels and Keith Richards!  But our Statto Red's approach to start/sit decisions led to his demise.

Our man in statistics stayed afloat for 3 weeks taunting the league and rules.  Up until the end, he was warned of a runaway roster with CoVid issues and injuries permeating the NFL this week. And yet, Statto decided to brave the Glistening Guillotined waters with 75% of his roster playing.
Unfortunately for all the underdogs in the world, Statto died yesterday from an acute case of having no head, with some saying he lost it up "you know where".  No need to besmirch such an interesting character who was able to stay alive for 4 weeks without really grasping the rules. 
Statto Red, as his friends called him, was a gentle soul, but had a fierce flicker in his ticker burning like Keelan Cole.   

Alas, Statto met his maker with 75 points and bench full of 25.  This would not have been enough to hold off the executioners we have come to adore, but he did leave his relative the $1000 that went unspent on waivers.
The last two deaths in our guillotine league have been due to missing "dead"lines and not understanding how crucial one's head attached can be in defeating  your opponents. 
We should give thanks to our fallen - Statto Red, Gerrence, Buckmaster Pete, and Carl Champion of Champions, and remember nothing is forever.  In fact some here might be seeing a few of these lads soon.  Bring a hat.

Statto Red left his heirs a plethora of talent.  Mahomes, Metcalf and Godwin and a few good defenses are up for the taking.  Make sure you read the tea leaves this week with Tennessee Titans and other CoVid outbreaks as this could be crucial.
Additionally, make sure you "pay" special attention to this weeks waiver wire bidding, because a poor choice here or a missed gem there could lead to "REGENERATION" and new life for dead meat............... Bwhahahaha

Frankenstein Meets Fowler's Left Foot

"I accept chaos, not sure if chaos accepts me?- Bob Dylan

In the midst of one of the most historical battles of the blade and blood, came a project of resurrection from the dead.   It was a party of constituted parts that a few objected to on ethical bounds, and others were happy to look aside thankful for their personal collar.
The houses of Gerrence, Buckmaster Pete, and Carl the Conqueror were summoned by the gods of the fantasy football underworld for one more haunting.   Each would compete until death do they part.   This author is here to tell you that Buckmaster Pete is:



Montana Magic: 117.26
Jared Goff: 27.36
Ceedee Lamb: 22.40
Jamison Crowder: 27.60
Todd Gurley: 27.00
Mark Ingram: 5.7
No Mo Alie Cox: 0
Tyler Boyd:8.30
KC Def: -1

It's a minor miracle that the house of Buckmaster Pete outlasted his compatriots - considering his TE was held scoreless and his defense was under par for the tournament.   Nevertheless, Buckmaster Pete rejoins the Guilly with $50 to his name and his head in tact.

Enjoy your time here, be grateful for every bolt, stitch and screw (and dream of large women :)




In other news, this writer is saddened to say that Robbie Fowler's left foot was amputated last night by a rogue executioner leading to his demise.   At 120.90 points, this week the black knight was hardly a failure.  GLB was leading the league in total points scored and had a team of all-stars.
As is usual in the Guilly, you never know what will kill ye.  Fowler's left foot was left dangling because of a poor evening by Tyler Lockett and CEH.  If you knew GLB like we know GLB, you'll find this manager to be a person of a few words, but decisive action.  Ruthless in the waiver wire, and watching from a distance, able to sneak up on the most savvy of players.  This keen machine of gladiatorial sheen left a home full of players, money and goodies for all.   At the very end, GLB was stoic and hoping for a draw.




We would be remiss here not to mention the last second get-away by Classy in a Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid sort of way.   Hanging on the cliffs' cutting's edge, Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs came to the rescue of the Classy' cranium.  Needing 37 points to avoid the axe, Butch and the Kid secured 40 like they were having pancakes at IHOP at 3am.

Sharpening The Magic of 6



"You cannot go on forever stealing what you need without regard for those who come after". - Frank Herbert


Stoa and the Fine Margins of The Stayin' Alive Five


Tonight, we had a horseman from Austria on the loose.  He was riding throughout the land, kicking up sand, posse's on his tail cause he's on the lamb.  High living from an oil family dynasty named Hunt, Mahomes, Kamara, Metcalf and McCaffrey led to some overconfidence.
Unfortunately for Stoa, he met his maker and lost his head this evening after some stray razor wire was hidden between two trees in an attempt to prevent landowner theft in the land of fantasy Austrian rules football.  They found the body, but never found the head.




While authorities have no witnesses to Stoa's death, legend has it that his friends Hunt, Kupp, Higbee, and bunch of Texans lured him to the killing spot where the razor wire would take his life.  Some now say, that he haunts the forests of Austria during Schnitzelfests.
Stoa's was a fine spirit who had a clear mind and steel-eyed nature that would not be bullied.  Treachery was all his enemies had, and as Frank Herbert suggests --- it was more than enough to roll heads.  Stoa leaves his heirs some of the finest riches in the world:

QB - P Mahomes
RB - K Hunt (pronounced Kunt)
RB - R Mostert (pronounced dead or mostly dead if you're into the princess bride)
WR - A Thielen (nicknamed handle with care)
WR - C Kupp
TE - T Higbee
FL - A Jones
BE - DK Metcalf
BE - A. Kamara
BE - D Watson
BE - C McCaffrey
DEF - Houston Texans     

We thank Stoa for his contributions to all the worlds he haunts :)   And his friends, Classy, Claus, Baxter, Trend and Buck Peter, just happy to have one more week.

Week 7 - High Five: A pinky, thumb thumb survive, Classy, Pete and Claus take a dive.

"The five separate fingers are five independent units. Close them and the fist multiplies strength. This is organization." ~ James Cash Penney




Frankenstein finds his creation come undone

What was once a feel good story, has become a macabre tale of the legend of Odell Beckham Jr.   Buck Pete, Trend's creation, came to an end tonight.  He lost his life by eating tainted meat.  Hamstring and cruciate ligament meat from a poor helpless soul from Cleveland, Ohio was made available to Pete -- and he bit down hard only to find a unique kind of toxin that he was not immune to ----  necrotic losing disease has made meat a poison to some football fans.   Pete did his best coming back from the dead to make this life have meaning.  However, his two friends (Classy and Claus) or C&C Music Factory --- pumped up the volume by making Pete the taste tester.   

Normally, one or both of these lads would have experienced the Chark treatment, but was finessed at the last second by a volleyball named Wilson.  We will miss our favorite green giant and wish him well in the next life.   He leaves a series of worthless scraps that are the essential building blocks of life but do not seem to have much value here

Matt Ryan
Todd Gurley
Ronald Jones
Tyler Boyd
Kenny Golladay
Robert Tonyan
Devante Parker
Myles Gaskin
Pitt Defense

The survivors:  Bax the Leader, Trend the Truth, Classy the Clam, Clausy the Clown[/color] are left to fight off the guillotine...

Some of us are already practicing destiny
