fantasy advice time.  Semi-finals of a PPR Dynasty

do I play Edelman vs Broncos or does he get shut down?

other choices would be Forte (knee gives me pause)

Ingram/Hightower (messy situation right now)

Jeffery (1st game back...who knows what I'm getting)

DeSean Jackson (hard to know what he's gonna do with his 3 or 4 catches)

Boldin (been fairly productive but limited upside)

playing a team with David Johnson, Leveon Bell and Antonio Brown so I need every point I can get

What line do you have available on Brady? Need that info before I can answer

Hey @The Ref I'm still waiting for some Brady lines so I can immediately respond that you should hedge $0 and everybody likes my post and we all laugh.

Thanks

Wo wo wo stop the clock.....instead of my normal immediate response of not hedging I switched it up, I asked for lines so I could do the math, ignore the fact that I was never going to do the math, I did switch it up this time.

Now get to the bathroom and get your phone ready cause PC is about to release

 
Jeffery vs Packers I think right.. Bears are gonna need to score some and air it out.  Weve see every other QB but Cutler chuck it around except that winter wonderland game in Chi 2 weeks ago.

That game scares me though as a Rodgers owner.  Gonna be -2 at kickoff, around -20 wind chill.  I have this waking nightmare of a 6-3 snoozer that loses me the semifinals.

Ran up from 2-6 to lead this team into the semi's. It's either going to be awesome or a total  :tfp: this weekend.

10-team standard:

Luck

Zeke

Martin

Tyfreak

Watkins

Eifert

Riddick/Thomas

Minny

M. Bryant

For the bolded flex - Lean Thomas for HR potential and if he practices this week. Riddick goes off at 1PM Thomas at 4PM. If Thomas not practicing or GTD, Riddick for sure goes into the lineup. Reply if in disagreement.

Which Thomas?

 
Ok, here's on of mine, similar to mquinn I've managed to finagle a complete ess-show of a season into the semi finals against the best team in the league.  No ppr, 1 point bonus for every 10 yards of touchdown length (a 50 yard td is worth 11).

TY, Dez, Devante Adams.  I've gotten it wrong between Devante and Dez 3 weeks in a row.  After last weeks' crap by Dez I figured screw it, stick with TY and Devante.  But now the ice bowl in Chicago has me rethinking.  Input appreciated.

Edelman.  If he finds the endzone at least once his ceiling is as high as any of them in PPR.

 
Pens on the PL  (+175)
Flames  (-130)
Bolts TT U2.5  (-110)

Problem with that is Edelman has 2 TD's in 13 games, so he doesn't score, and Denver is the #1 team in the league in WR defense (6 TD's allowed all season).

 
Flyers  (-125)

system is really close to calling for a Flyers PL play, which you can get at +235 or so, if you are daring.

I was bored so I took a look at Bovada's futures for the Kentucky Derby this year.  Then I found a ranking of possible contenders.  Horse Racing Nation's (sounds legit!) rankings have Three Rules as the fourth best horse, and he's 75-1 at Bovada.  So I bet it.  For fun!  You all should too.

think he bombed his last race.

Is this a thing and does it make sense. Going back to last season opposing teams are 15-29 SU (1-16 SU away) versus Washington when they score > 41% of their points in the paint.. and the road team is getting most of the early love on the pick'em spread so far

Well, I still don't know if that whole thing makes sense or not, but I'm doing it.

Wizards +1½ -102 2u

I think he is due. If Edelman gets in the end zone you owe me a months worth of your picks. If he doesn't I owe you a month worth of my picks. Deal?

 
Anyone who is owed money from Kurt heard from him with a tracking number?

Friend of mine was owed this month and was promised a tracking number Friday and hasn't heard since and followed up a few times.  Second friend of mine is also getting the "runaround" - that's the only details I got on that one. 

I heard right away about my biggest lost ever this month as did a few of our other friends here.

This seems to be getting to be a common theme.  Anyone ever get a free play credit for being first 3 received?  I sent mine in a day early this month.  No free play credit. And I'm pretty sure I have a few times in the past. FeelsBadMan

This the new normal for RB?  I've been such a good customer for so long - thinking of looking for something else.

I've been playing light there since Prop Gate, but gonna owe in January.  agree it seems to be a common theme of pay immediately when down and what feels like slower pays to those up, but as far as I know everyone I've talked to has been paid

I did get one of the fast pay credits a few months back...forgot when that was though.  was either spring or summer I think

 
wife was looking in my wallet for a receipt for something

wife:  whats this Vivios receipt????

me: oh I met that gambling friend of mine for lunch the other day

Wife: the one that makes us all the money?  first I've heard of this?  he lives in Michigan?

me: yeah.  didn't think it was important

wife: sounds awfully fancy, you sure you weren't out with some chick.  Vivios up north is a fancy Italian place

me: :shrug:   I think its a pretty common name

You need to condition her to this type stuff. I was lucky because I used to do a #### ton of blow in my younger days and my old lady was fortunate enough to be with me when I met up with some drug dealers. When I promised to swear off and it came time to have the conversation about investing in sports I set her up with her own account. I put $200 on Bovada her name, introduced her to I-friend Swirve,  and she giggles on sundays betting $2 per prop now.

Used to be some really good fantasy lines there years ago, they had every qb/rb/wr1 listed with spreads.  They've cut way back and lines have been much better.
