Scumleague FF 2017 (1 ACL and counting...)

[PJ.]

/in but like...it's june

[PJ.]

Fuck, I can't draft prep with peg this year.

[PJ.]

Fuck. This is stupid. 12 team leagues are stupid as fuck.

[PJ.]

Yeah, I complain about it every year. Make a league 4 run with 6 or 8. 12 team leagues are dumb as shit.

[PJ.]

Ddd dropped the ball on divisions.

[PJ.]

SQUEAKY WHEEL!

[PJ.]

10 is standard. Btw.

[PJ.]

Trash.

[PJ.]

5 more and we can do 12/10/10/8 and actually have good leagues aside from l1

[PJ.]

No

Maybe

[PJ.]

Basically yeah

[PJ.]

No, I'd rather no trades period than draft pick trades.

[PJ.]

Serriously though can we consider turning off trades entirely?

[PJ.]

Isn't fantasy anymore without trading, honestly.

Trading is legit the worst part and super unfair. It's usually only used for collusion/or some desperate idiot getting fleeced out of his only good player.

[PJ.]

7th. Fuck. I hate your kid. I don't feel proud to admit this.

[PJ.]

I prefer the 28th but whatever

[PJ.]

Oh, I'm lonzo next great laker btw

[PJ.]

Filthy Commies

disagree

[PJ.]

Pablito def best looking team. Bones looks good, Gams looks good. I liked KMD's team before today. PEG team and My team are similar and fine.

Honestly beside Cow, i don't think anyone would trade their roster for the Commies' roster. it's p poop

[PJ.]

How about you take pablito. Cause like... I don't want to play him twice.

[PJ.]

Chances are that one of those won't be on your team in 10 weeks, you'll be fine.

[PJ.]

that's real dumb

[PJ.]

I rolled the dice on Fat Eddy. Do I think he sucked up til now? Yeah. Did I see great things in him in college? not really. But he's a physical runner. And he's almost certainly on his last stop. We salvaged Lynch from the Buffalo depth chart and let him be a star, but he could do the same for Fat Eddy(although, Lynch's college tape and some of his highlights in Buffalo were much more promising then Lacy)

[PJ.]

Dude, my team ducks more than I thought it did. I thought I was ripe for the middle of the league but I'm probably relegated

[PJ.]

I just want running backs...ugh. this is why I should just go RB RB every year.

[PJ.]

Yeah I'm cool with Hyde.

[PJ.]

Cause l1 sucks

[PJ.]

Wentz is averaging like 20 something pts a game, right?

[PJ.]

couldn't happen to a better guy, really.

[PJ.]

Wentz isn't even a bad option, he's the 4th highest scorer in standard leagues currently. Complaining about Wentz is legit complaining about not having Rodgers or Brady and like...those guys went Hella early in draft, bring able to pick up Wentz free and get your high round skill position guys...you should be celebrating, not crying.

[PJ.]

And of course I dropped fuller to handcuff hyde. Fuck me.

[PJ.]

I guess it's good I drafted Julius Jones and not Beckham #1

JULIUS!

[PJ.]

I had

three

injuries this week. Christ. DeVante Parker, Charles Clay (who I just picked up!), and Sterling Shephard all injured in the first halves of their respective games. I'm going to win this week, but this is bad. I have a super BYE next week (four starters out) and I can't carry a bunch of injured players through that. I want to hang on to Clay, but I don't know if I can. I'll definitely have to drop Shephard.

Yea I got a bunch of shit players, but I kinda need them all, and I'm supposed to drop a guy for Wilson's Bye week. It's making my life hard.

[PJ.]

Shepard was behind Marshall on the depth chart, Nero, but he was getting just as much work and more near the goal line. He had a better start to his fantasy season than Marshall by a lot, and I don't think that relative position changes with OBJ out.

Of course, now Marshall's done for the year, so it will be the Shepard show. They simply have no-one else to throw to.

isn't shepard hurt too? Also Marshall did fuck all.

[PJ.]

Gj hop

[PJ.]

Well Garcon is IR so now I bet that trade looks even better.

Also this is why trades should be banned. Weeeeeee

[PJ.]

you're nuts dude. they just lost their only decent pass catcher. as a hyde owner, i'm seriously contemplating starting marlon mack instead this week because they are gonna stack the box so much harder.

[PJ.]

Dude...I'm regretting that Joe Mixon trade so hard right now. I should of tried it with adam jones.

[PJ.]

Weird that I have a higher percentage for playoffs then Poker Face given I'm in the toughest division. He gets 1 hard game and 2 cup cake games. I get 3 pretty hard games all against potential playoff teams.

Tbone, as long as you beat gamseimnre I'll be happy

[PJ.]

Well I fucking gave you Joe Mixon...so like...both your wins are solely because of me

[PJ.]

Well that trade won me 2 games too, so like..not free. Sterling Shepard was a fucking hero for me before he got a cold, also he was playing mediocre as hell before i gave him up

[PJ.]

Well that makes us both dumb =(

[PJ.]

hopeflly d hop doesn't do shit tonight

[PJ.]

So how does Tiebreakers work? And how does promotion/relegation work? Do the entire playoffs go to l1? Is gamsimbre gonna get relegated for not setting his roster against peg this week?

Also count me in on the DDD argument of hating divisions. No more divisions, only 10 teams next year please.

[PJ.]

Only 10 teams next year please.

Yo man 2004 called and want their 10 team standard back.

whewlads.

10 trams is still the standard zzzzzzz

[PJ.]

10 teams is so much of a fucking joke. Just draft better and make smarter wire pickups. If anything, I'd argue to reduce the bench size before axeing two teams.

This is the stupidest paragraph I've ever read, congrats.

[PJ.]

Alright, so...does division record factor into the wild card tie break

[PJ.]

Right, when he(wrongly) relegated me from L1 for inactivity it didn't affect results either, but he's been gone 2 weeks. so like..that's inactive. And him missing last week probably saved you from relegation. So like...he gets to go to L3. Enjoy.

[PJ.]

*shrug*

I posted the facts. That's all I'm interested in.

The facts are that he could of put you in relegation. But he didn't set his lineup. So.....what facts.

just for shits and giggles what even is your argument for a 10 team league?

More options. You actually can waiver playable personnel instead of the best WR option from FA being Dede westbrook or Ryan Grant. You can actual waiver wire players that aren't lottery picks. And "drafting better" isn't really a solution to the problem. Players get hurt(ie. David Johnson, Odell Beckham, Aaron Rodgers, Greg Olsen, or any other number of top 5/10 projected players in their position). Some players under perform due to other people getting injured(Mike Evans a good example here). Being able to solve those problems in a satisfactory way that doesn't involve playing the lottery every week on a no-name scrub is actually nice.

Which is only true if he gets relegated in which case the conversation would be pointless to have. And even that assumes he could have made up 70 points or whatever it is. And I covered that in my post when I said he hurt his own overall rank in terms or promotion/relegation. And if he isn't in relegation range, relegating him saves someone anyway which doesn't really solve that issue.

I literally had this exact argument when I left Luck in for like 4 weeks while he was hurt and got relegated. It didn't affect playoffs or relegation and I got put down(I won at least half the games in question). The rules are if you miss multiple weeks, it doesn't matter what the results are. Bring a doctors note, ya know?

The difference would only be about 10 WRs total. There’s not much of a differences between the 51st best WR (best non-rostered WR in a 10 team league assuming everyone has 5 WRs) and the 61st best (12-team). The difference last year was between DeVante Parker (98.4 points) and Terrence Williams (81.4). Both suck. And everyone is picking from the same boat.

It

is

a big difference though. Because it not really a difference of 51st and 61st. It's there 70 WRs rostered in L2. And 52 RBS. That's ridiculous. There were several weeks this season where you would go to the typical fantasy football sites for "pick ups of the week" and they'd all already be on teams from the week before.

[PJ.]

PEG and racefan have clinched their divisions so they are in playoffs.

Pablito plays Jahudo next week. Winner is in playoffs and will have highest overall record out of division 3. They will win division 3

Cow plays Panzer next week. Winner will be tied with loser of Pabs vs Jahudo in overall record. Who has highest overall score will make playoffs as division 3 crown will already be decided.

It'a not division record first?

[PJ.]

okay, i guess I'm rooting for Jahudo then.

[PJ.]

Poker face just said that doesn't matter, tho. Only Points for when it comes to wild card.

[PJ.]

projections where?

[PJ.]

well 6 is too many and it can't be 5. It's 4 in a 10 person league, which is 40%. In the actual NFL it's 37%. 6 would be 50%. That's just way too many. Ask any NBA fan.

But hey, when I'm complaining about how 10-man leagues are far better than 12 man ones, maybe you should chime in!

[PJ.]

I hate fantasy football

[PJ.]

Man, I just did the math on the Joe Mixon trade...it's not good. That trade actually put me out of the playoffs....

[PJ.]

I'm just shit.

[PJ.]

Weeeeehaaaaw kicking a man while he's down.

[PJ.]

Also on the plus side: nero cain isn't calling you shit hohoho

[PJ.]

someone tell me who's in league 2 next year.

[PJ.]

Racefan

Coruscant Jedi(who?)

Aronis
Gamsibre(unless relegated)
Zoaster(yay)
Mith(yay)
Cow(yay)
Pokerface(yay)
PenguinPower
Me
Sharon(this KMD's wife?)

DN...R?(who?)

DeathNote

And first guy coming up if Gamimbre gets relegated is Locke Lamora?

is that right(tentatively at least)?

[PJ.]

roster didn't change from like week 11 to past playoffs

[PJ.]

I would say "let's retroactively put me back in l1" but I like what l2 looks like next year.

[PJ.]

I think you should get a very special league. One with nobody else in it. Just a league of you and 11 stuffed animals. Then you can have tea parties after every game and all your friends can tell you how great you are at fantasy football and how cool and knowledgeable you are.

[PJ.]

Anything to point out how petulant you are, buddy.

[PJ.]

I wish I was smart enough to be a Gurley boy.

[PJ.]

Panzer has been livid ever since I said rap was crap.

Ahhh, ok

This is false. But that's fine.

[PJ.]

Also I wouldn't qualify what he said as banter by any stretch of the imagination.
