I'm in a redraft league and I'm dumping him for a waiver pickup tonight. Our play-offs are the next three weeks and it looks like Plexi will be out at least for the first two. I have a bye this week, so I don't need him anyway. I already have Hixon, but I'm hoping to replace Plexi with...

Suck it up. That's what happens when you inbreed. :lmao:

Ah the good old days. Back in those days you could spot a fantasy footballer from a mile away, USA Today in hand compiling stats. The funniest sight for me was at the airport terminal on a Monday morning seeing a line of guys, some suits and some casual, all combing through the USA Today...

Hey Bill, I think you answered your own question. Unless you felt there was collusion, there is no reason to even consider voting. The only thing you can do is give the guy who dangled Slaton props for pulling this off. Remember, in the shark pool it's eat or be eaten. Next time, just make...

If you had said that in the first place, I doubt any of the soapboxers would be criticizing you. Trash your league as being bush, maybe. It's tough to think of weird plays without knowing your respective lineups. Just check the gamebooks on NFL.com and then bench away.

If your rules allow it and your lineup is not considered illegal and this is a common practice in your league, then by all means do it. Don't worry about what anyone here says. They don't play in your league. On the other hand, if this isn't normal to your league and you're forging new...

My point was that in your OP, you said "hate". That implies you're making an emotional decision. I called it stupid because that's tough love. I said this in another post and I'll say it here. Evaluate each starter based on whether that starter will give you the best chance to win. If one...

You didn't find anything because it's a stupid question. Whether you start a player or not should have nothing to do the fact that they play on opposing teams in the NFL. What's more important is the opposing defense each faces. What if the two teams had lousy run defenses? Do you sit them...

It sounds like the dude made an honest mistake, but a costly one. Since he put it out there like that, I don't think you're obligated to do anything. That's why if I put out feelers, I never put in a trade where the other guy would be crazy not to accept. I put it in where I get the player...

I think what everyone is trying to tell you is this...Was this a case of the guy submitting the trade transaction incorrectly? Meaning was it verbally (or email or IM or whatever handshake you used) agreed that you would also be sending him J.T.? If not, then he's the scammer and I would tell...

Always start the players that give you the best chance to win any given week. Ask yourself if you would bench Slaton if someone else owned the Jags D. If your answer is yes, then bench him. Otherwise, start him.

You're preaching to the choir. I used to be a commish (including taking over the league I mentioned above) and I put everything to a vote. I never had a problem because I helped closed or clarified all loopholes in my leagues. Sometimes a better league is just a commissioner-change away...

I was in a league where this was not illegal. It was presented to the commish and he took the stance that if it happens it happens. It's up to every team to manage their roster and not let that happen to them. It's a competitive advantage to wait until the last minute to get the best...

Yes, that and by dangling him, the Bears have to prepare for him. I picked up Buckhalter and would love to use him this week. The only problem is it's and 8PM Sunday night game, so waiting until the last minute does me nothing since I don't have Westbrook. Oh well, at least the Westbrook owner...

Me too! :confused:
