    what happened to the shark pool?

    Been lurking around here since cheatsheets.net. Used to read this board every day, but now I only look maybe once a week during the NFL season and not at all during the offseason. The message board's viability as a place to communicate has been long compromised, social media is killing off all...

    I state the obvious very often but...

    strictly speaking, no. but variance measures uncertainty, and in this thread people are basically using the terms interchangeably. imo:In a league made up of competent players, the game ultimately does boil down to mostly luck. This is particularly true now, as opposed to say ten years ago...

    Auction Vs. Draft

    chess vs. checkers. easy to find 11 other numbnuts who will play a game of checkers with you. a 12 person chess match (humor me and presume such a game exists) is way more difficult to put together, but magnitudes more interesting and challenging. comparing the two is silly. and i play both...

    No alcohol to be served at Cin/JETS game Sunday?

    if you witnessed the last game at Shea Stadium (i was there) you'd know why. it's a different time now (post 9/11) and NY fans haven't gotten too out of line in awhile, but the last time Jets fans closed down a stadium it was UGLY.

    Do betting lines affect your fantasy decisions?

    common misconception. the books are trying to beat the players and have a rooting interest in most games.and yes I look at sides and totals when making close lineup decisions.

    Matt Forte riding rollercoasters at Six Flags.

    One of the last people my wife and I spoke to, minutes before our wedding ceremony, was FatDale white. The Titans were staying in the hotel where our ceremony and reception were held. We were taking our pre-wedding pictures and FatDale stepped out of the elevator directly in front of us, so my...

    BIZARRE Final Regular Season Standings Question

    Tiebreaker 2 would apply if I choose to view Teams A and B as tied in the standings (i.e., option #3 above). I'm beginning to agree with most that have posted that this is the logical outcome, and under that outcome Team B would advance to the playoffs, yes.I'm waiting until tonight to make a...

    BIZARRE Final Regular Season Standings Question

    Because it's a keeper league and the strength of your bench isn't necessarily indicative of the strength of your tream.Some guys like to stash keepers, some guys like to handcuff all their players. This tiebreaker always seemed a little odd to me, especially in non-redraft leagues.Again, this...

    BIZARRE Final Regular Season Standings Question

    Thanks for the replies guys. :shrug: I think that this information is irrelevant for the purpose of this thread, but Team A and Team B split their two head to head games. Team A finished the season 5-5 in the division and Team B finished the season 5-4-1 in the division.Head to head record...

    BIZARRE Final Regular Season Standings Question

    Hello. I am the commissioner of a competitive 12 team league that has just completed its twelfth regular season--many of the owners have been competing together since 1996. Our league rulebook is approximately 15 pages long and covers almost every situation imaginable. But it does not cover...

    Sustained greatness by a RB

    bingo.RBs drafted at the top of the 1st round carry the mail from the moment they arrive in the NFL.as a matter of fact, the one non-1st rounder on the list is Curtis Martin, whose initial claim to fame was being a 3rd rounder who was so good in camp that Parcells handed him a starting job.

    Peyton Hillis

    you don't start fullbacks in fantasy football. not unless they get converted to tailbacks, anyway. i guess maybe in 20 team leagues, or occasionally in PPR leagues? i can't recall ever starting a fullback in 15 years. maybe Keith Byars once or twice.

    What Am I missing about this prop bet

    Hey Assani. :popcorn: Props are rough, 30 and 40-cent lines suck. But edges can still be found with them, imo. I think the answer to this question is that INTs are way more random than the average fan thinks and that low (or high) INT numbers regress to the mean in the long term. Remember...

    Anybody still play the tecmo bowl on NES?

    tecmo super bowl is the greatest video game of all time. i still play it from time to time, i've got the same stories as pretty much every other guy my age about entire seasons being played with 12+ guys participating, etc. simply the best game ever made. if both players are allowed to set...

    Bills (4-0) @ Cardinals (2-2)

    basing NFL handicapping mostly on what happened the prior week is the classic, most rudimentary error players make. Cards -1 is a solid line here.
