    Fantasy Playoffs

    So this week we saw a few playoff clinched teams start the resting process and a few of the garbage teams seeing what they have in their youth. It'll only get worse from here. This is the first time I've made it through the first round (no small task vs Lynch and Seattle) so this'll be the...

    Trade vs No Trade Leagues

    I'm starting to get a bit frustrated in one of my leagues due to the imo horribly lopsided trades/talent dumps. Every league has at least one or two exploitable people, a couple friends who will dump when they are out of it, and I believe that stupid Yahoo trade evaluator is the worst thing to...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    I think you may have just bridged the decades old great polarizing divide good sir. I am more than willing to accept that as the end all be all resolution to this debate - provided we also account for format alongside owner knowledge/dedication (it may take me a while to actually say the word...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    Of course poker takes skill, but poker has a set number of variables and outcomes. While you can't control the cards themselves, you can react to them mathematically. You can also read the other players and adjust your bets and reactions accordingly. None of that is true of fantasy football. I...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    The beef isn't on my end bro, it was Ignartio and Hooper who started in with wild accusations. I am entirely entitled to my "holier than thou" attitude as my arguments have been unbreakable thus far. Isn't that what we are doing here? Having a debate? As far as I can tell, the skillful masters...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    Aww, no one took up my skill challenge; feel free to try next week. Did any "experts" have Freeman as their number 1 QB? Top 5 even? What about VJax? Cobb? CJ?K or Howling? Dan Bailey? Of course not. Because whatever you claim about your mad research and magical fantasy skills, at the end of the...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    Nice try, I have nothing to do with the OP though. I bumped it because not one of you masters of the art of fantasy football has yet explained how I am the leading scorer in 2 of my leagues but not in first place. In one of them the 8th highest scorer is sitting in first. You haven't yet...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    Let's test this. All of you who think you weild the indescribeable and unquantifiable force that is Fantasy Football skill - pick your perfect rosters on here each week. You will NEVER pick them perfect, which means you can always get beat regardless of how skilled you think you are, points only...

    Fantasy Etiquette (Collusion)

    Guy in dead last got stuck with Starks, his team is bad enough that he may actually start him though. That Graham and Gronk choice at the 12-13 turn hurt him. 3rd place got Felix, 5th got Powell.

    Fantasy Etiquette (Collusion)

    I have and I agree. And while this specific situation isn't too big of a deal with the basically bench slot wasting players they grabbed (although I still could have used them this week), I am still curious about dealing with situations like this in the future; those that could have more...

    Fantasy Etiquette (Collusion)

    Far from butthurt, and of course I know I am not "entitled" to anyone. Just uncomfortable with alliances (probably a better word, thanks Mistabishi) in what should be a free for all type of game. They essentially pooled their waiver dollars to block me. They'll get laid out, I'll hand them a...

    Fantasy Etiquette (Collusion)

    I know all is fair in love and war and that everyone is always gunning for the king of the hill, but at what point does it get out of hand? Still sitting in first in my big money league even after two bad beats as the second highest scorer, but this week I'll be without Demarco from his injury...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    Sheesh, a lot of vitriol the last couple of days, its just a fantasy football discussion guys - relax a little. On phone right now so just a quickie in response to Dave and his attempt at using the Spiller value pick that paid off as a testament to skill. That doesn't work brother, it is still...

    Fantasy football takes no skill

    I think we are having a semantics battle at this point. What else would you call that other than research and comprehension? Do scouts and Vegas/books say that they are skilled at Fantasy Football? Of course not. It wasn't meant as a slight on the skill portion of this discussion; simply putting...
