[DA RAIDERS]

Travis Etienne and Ameer Abdullah are my starting RBs in my must-win matchup to make the playoffs.

Yay me.

Congrats in advance, @Chaos34

you're welcome for abdullah

He’s an upgrade over Akers, theoretically, who was previously in my RB2 slot.
I guess I’m just hoping for Mattison to be inactive one more week and, with the Raiders likely to be far behind against the gunslinging Bucs, should play into Abdullah’s pass catching role.

Or at least that’s what I’m telling myself.

He did well for me 2 weeks ago. Was useless last week. He was basically relegated to 3rd down and only had 3 points with 5 minutes to go. He got 4 more. GL

@Chaos34 …FEAR TRAVIS HOMER!!!

Checklist. Start Travis Homer when your season is on the line. Check. It just shows how stupid fantasy football is. Ha ha

Back to Abdullah at RB2 since he’s fully practiced 2 days in a row.
Will only go to Homer if Swift is declared out.

I’ll keep you all updated

Since I’m forced to start sincere, 3rd down relegation only please.

Damn Deamon. 224? Think that's season high. I think.

Josh Allen 61 and Nacua 41. Sheesh
Show off.

 

[joey]

After all the back and forth about bye-mageddon, injuries, and my crappy choices at RB2…turns out I didn’t need an RB2 at all.

Thanks to Addison, Kittle & Mayfield, LLC

See ya in the playoffs, fellas!

Congratulations, Joey! I always suspected if you just took your glasses off and let down your hair there was a pretty fantasy football manager inside all along.

 

[Chaka]

And congratulations to everyone else, playoffs or not. I really appreciate how competitive you guys are.

Yeah, this league is a blast. I’ll say again what everyone has said already….so great to be in a league where you “know” everyone, from these boards at least. Active chatter. Crazy competitive. It’s been so fun.

 

[-jb-]

Well done player offers. GL to all. Will be watching from the bleachers.

Maybe next year I can keep the IRs to a minimum.

 

[FarFromHome]

Joey. You get an entire 30 for 30 episode with my Soldiers. When the TV crew arrives keep politics out of it and try to enjoy yourself. It's hard to outrun destiny. My Soldiers are destined. My Soldiers are prepared. We have depth. We have big hitters. Its time. Its time. Onward!!!!


Ignore Chaka. You ain't pretty enough. Ha ha

I’m ready for my close up.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Really glad I jumped in. I’ve had a blast.

 

[FarFromHome]

At first glance it sure seems like the Vegas odds have me as the clear favorite. I like that your best player, Taylor, a player I really really like, plays at Denver. I'm liking my matchups. I should put up 140 plus, but football is always gonna football. Onward.

Appropriate that we’re matched up against each other in the first week of the playoffs.
I like your matchups too. I can’t see a path to victory for me. Congrats in advance.

@Deamon I don’t know you lost a game all year. That’s quite the team you have. I need some of your guys to seriously under perform. I saw this possibility 2 weeks ago and really wanted to win my division to avoid you. Stupid Denver D

Not at all. I absolutely love alpha male moxy. We have way to many of those "congrats on beating me" softies. We have a couple of real men in the league and bunch of guest hosts from The View. Ha ha

My first big position of leadership I used to send out emails to other departments of what I expected. The big boss called me and said I need to soften it a little. I didn't feel like I was out of line. It was just how I communicated. Think stereotypical straightforwad Army Sgt. I sent less emails of expectation and had most communications in person. Way easier to be direct and not as aggressive face to face. Written communication can be taken in ways it wasnt intended. Lesson learned. Then the internet came. Big fun. Then online fantasy football trash talk came. Even bigger fun. Its the one interaction you can kinda just be a little different then your usual self. I have zero intention of upsetting anyone personally. I like your schtick. Its entertaining. I was just pushing up against it because we are playing in the playoffs. Lesson learned once again.

Loser…

Went to a wedding at West Point this summer. Very cool experience. That being said. Go navy. Beat army.

I think all this back and forth can be attributed to issues of self consciousness because you all just don't realize how pretty you are.

Not as pretty as me, of course, but still... Believe in your inner prettiness and, maybe treat yourself to a spa day.

Nice shtick mash-up.

@Deamon I don’t know you lost a game all year. That’s quite the team you have. I need some of your guys to seriously under perform. I saw this possibility 2 weeks ago and really wanted to win my division to avoid you. Stupid Denver D

You got your wish. Heavily favoured but I'm going to lose for sure. But that's fantasy playoffs for ya. Good luck in the Semis.

Early? You're at 75% with 75% of minutes played. It's yours, just take the win graciously.

 

[Chaka]

@Deamon taking a deep dive into the "congrats on your win" wish casting.

Allow it.

 

[Chaka]

LOL in the time it took me to write my post above @Deamon went from 75% loss to 54% loss chance.

Thes algorithms are hilariously terrible.

allen stopped on the last 2 1st and goals. one to my opponent cook, one stopped completely when he coulda ran it in.

The fantasy gods aren't with me this week. Going to go 1-4 in my 5 QF's.

Chaka, you luckily get Raiders next week.

Love it when I get this Kyler Murray. Smh

I get the Raiders to do what? Lose again and get the #1 pick? Awesome! I'm all for that!

 

[FarFromHome]

Tough to concede when you have 4 players left, but its math. My Soldiers came to the battle with no weapons. Congrats Joey.

Side note. I'd love an invite for next year.

 

[Chaka]

I want to congratulate Bye Week on their win this week.

It took a lot of effort and, it's not over yet but I know when it's time to congratulate my opponent.

Good job Bye Week.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

A good week to put up my high score of the season.

Must suck for a silly “softie” like me to kick the crap out of your “big boy” “alpha male” team.

The schtick ends when ***I*** say it ends. Deal with it.

Onward indeed!

Congrats again man. For the record I don't think your soft. Its the Internet. I like playing the villain in leagues. With that comes the sting when your lose. I accept it. Ha ha

 

[FarFromHome]

The best thing about losing and having your season ends is that the season is finally over. I love fantasy football, but there is a refreshing deep breath when its over. It's the breath of freedom. Onward.

Wait! You're a villain? In my head you're more like a Gunnery Sergeant Thomas Highway or Sergeant Major Zak Carey type.

Ya. Villain seems strong. I've been playing fantasy football since 1989. Literally decades. So many leagues. I've found the most entertaining leagues are the ones with chatty, active owners. I've also found I can push league conversations by taking on a villain, er, overly chatty owner. Nothing worse then a 10 man league with 4 trash talk posts for the entire season. Imo
