Rumors from the Combine (1 Viewer)

The only thing people in this thread, and any other thread do is regurgitate information they read on sites like this. Argue selected information as if it were their own idea, and this of course is all based on their own dynasty team bias.
Totally agree.Plagiarism runs rampant on the internet. You see it all the time from thread posters as well as content writers."I came up with my own rankings." - Right after you saw someone else's. Copy/paste, change a few names or numbers around. My name's on it, it must be authentic."I was just about to write an article on this topic." - Yeah, sure you were. Perhaps the we can collaborate so I can publish something you came up with.We are all guilty of it at one point or another. Rare is the citing of the original thought or document.

*lol* Everyone is biased and no one has an original thought!So what's kept you guys here for 4 years? Must be the overwhelming self confidence you get from laughing at all the sheep.

It's not rocket science. You either like a guy, or you don't. For many reasons. There's not a lot of options in FF. Buy, sell, hold. Shockingly most people fall into this three groups. What sheep! Truly insightful posters would chose neither, and play fantasy baseball. Your realize every single rookie coming into the NFL, there are people who love them and hate them? So don't even bother picking a side, you're too late. It's already all been analyzed and posted on the internet. Expressing an opinion one way or the other is clearly plagiarism. Regardless, I'm not sure you know what the word means.

Hey buddy, you like Tom Brady! How un-original! Enjoy being a sheep! You must have seen Blooms rankings and then fallen in love with Brady. You're such a ##### nozzle!

It’s funny how the old time people get bitter after years of people disagreeing with them. It's called an internet forum. People disagree. Get over it. Whenever someone disagrees with you, the long time posters love to fall back on "you must own him in dynasty". That's not a counter-point. That's nonsense. You think people really enjoy your editorial theories on the makeup of FBG? That's so cool how you called everyone un-original sheep. Score one for you!

People just can't handle others disagreeing with them. Reminds me of this comic

What I would like to know is where did you two get this information?

I disagree with that.
 
When trading players, you want fair value. To get fair value, you have to use OTHERS rankings, or else you really don't have a judge as to what you could get if you passed on a deal.

IMO, when you are trading FOR a player, IE the sender of the deal, well, here is where your own true opinions come out. I have 'lost' many a deal where I offered something, it was accepted, and owners whined that I am dumb for sending that. More times than not, taking chances and going out on a limb is what sets you apart, not only in FF, but in life as well.

If you are a sheep in FF, or any other hobby for that matter, you are probably a sheep in your every day life as well.

Hey if you can't judge a man by how he runs his fantasy team, what can you judge him on?
